We apply a cone theoretic fixed point theorem and obtain conditions for the existence of positive periodic solutions of the system of functional differential equations $$x'(t)\;=\;A(t)x(t)+{\lambda}f(t,\;x(t-\tau(t))$$.

By using Mawhin continuation theorem and comparison theorem, the existence of periodic solution and persistence for a predator-prey system with diffusion and impulses are investigated in this paper. An example and simulation are given to show the effectiveness of the main results.

In this paper, using the time scale calculus theory, we first discuss the permanence of a $n$-species competition system with feedback control on time scales. Based on the permanence result, by the Lyapunov functional method, we establish sufficient conditions for the existence and uniformly asymptotical stability of almost periodic solutions of the considered model. The results of this paper is completely new. An example is employed to show the feasibility of our main result.

This paper develops a periodic preventive maintenance(PM) policy following the expiration of warranty. Two types of warranty are considered: renewing warranty and non-renewing warranty. Also, we consider the situation where each PM cost is an increasing function of the PM effect. We determine the optimal number of PM's before replacing the system by a new one and the optimal length of period for the periodic PM following the expiration of warranty. Explicit solutions to determine the optimal periodic PM are presented for the Weibull distribution case.

In this paper, three species stage-structured predator-prey model with time delayed and periodic constant impulsive perturbations of predator at fixed times is proposed and investigated. We show that the conditions for the global attractivity of prey(pest)-extinction periodic solution and permanence of the system. Our model exhibits a new modelling method which is applied to investigate impulsive delay differential equations. Our results give some reasonable suggestions for pest management.

A relay servo, one of the nonlinear sytsems, is inherently compact compared to a linear system for an equivalent control problem. The power element or actuator is not adjusted proportionally in accordance with an error signals but rather is switched abruptly between several discrete conditions. Usually switched conditions are off, full, forward or full reverse. The relay system is a particularly simple and compact one, but probably more effort has been expended on its analysis and design than on all other systems together. Early studies in the art were made by Goldfarb, austin, Oppelt and Kochenburger on the describing function method, which can be used as an approximate check on the stability of the system. The describing function method is based on the assumption that any periodic wave could be approximated as a fundamental one in wide ranges of practical applications. A relay servo system usually operates on a limit cycle condition as the loop gain increases. The stability analysis compensation or any improvement effort based on the describing function method sometimes may present considerable discrepancies on physically realized practical systems. An approach to exact periodic solutions of a relay servo system is much important for the analysis, design and system improvement. This paper dells with periodic solutions of a relay servo system on the basis of describing function and generalized chopper wave form which is composed of infinite number of harmonic series. Various ways of graphical representation were attempted to get periodic solutions, some of which have shown its validity in rapid approach to exact solutions and also in judgement of system behavior.

The problem of scheduling simply periodic task systems upon a uniform multiprocessor is considered. Partitioning of periodic task systems requires solving the bin-packing problem, which is known to be intractable (NP-hard in the strong sense). This paper presents a global scheduling algorithm which transforms a given simply periodic task system into another using a "task-splitting" technique. Each transformed simply periodic task system is guaranteed to be successfully scheduled upon any uniform multiprocessor using a partitioned scheduling algorithm. It is proven that the proposed algorithm achieves the theoretical maximum utilization bound upon any uniform multiprocessor platform.

The existence of periodic solutions for the planar Hamiltonian systems with positively homogeneous Hamiltonian is discussed. The asymptotic expansion of the Poincar$\acute{e}$ map is calculated up to higher order and some sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic solutions are given in the case when the first order term of the Poincar$\acute{e}$ map is identically zero.

In this paper, we consider a periodic preventive maintenance(PM) policy in which each PM reduces the hazard rate but remains the pattern of hazard rate unchanged. And the system undergoes only minimal repairs at failures between PM's. The expected cost rate per unit time is obtained. The optimal number N of PM and the optimal period x, which minimize the expected cost rate per unit time are discussed. Explicit solutions for the optimal periodic PM are given for the Weibull distribution case.

Hypokalemic periodic paralysis(HypoPP) is characterized by an abrupt onset of flaccid paralysis with a clear mentality, but muscles of speech and swallowing are usually spared. We report on three patients who suffered attacks of acute paralysis. After exclusion of central nervous system involvement, the patients showing hypokalemia was diagnosed as hypokalemic periodic paralysis, which was completely reversible on parenteral potassium substitution.
