AbstractIn this work, an extension of the strain energy for fibrous metamaterials composed of two families of parallel fibers lying on parallel planes and joined by connective elements is proposed. The suggested extension concerns the possibility that the constituent fibers come into contact and eventually scroll one with respect to the other with consequent dissipation due to friction. The fibers interact with each other in at least three different ways: indirectly, through microstructural connections that could allow a relative sliding between the two families of fibers; directly, as the fibers of a family can touch each other and can scroll introducing dissipation. From a mathematical point of view, these effects are modeled first by introducing two placement fields for the two fiber families and adding a coupling term to the strain energy and secondly by adding two other terms that take into account the interdistance between the parallel fibers and the Rayleigh dissipation potential (to account for friction).

<p>This paper addresses representation learning for the resolution of inverse problems  with geophysical dynamics. Among others, examples of inverse problems of interest include space-time interpolation, short-term forecasting, conditional simulation w.r.t. available observations, downscaling problems… From a methodological point of view, we rely on a variational data assimilation framework. Data assimilation (DA) aims to reconstruct the time evolution of some state given a series of  observations, possibly noisy and irregularly-sampled. Here, we investigate DA from a machine learning point of view backed by an underlying variational representation.  Using automatic differentiation tools embedded in deep learning frameworks, we introduce end-to-end neural network architectures for variational data assimilation. It comprises two key components: a variational model and a gradient-based solver both implemented as neural networks. A key feature of the proposed end-to-end learning architecture is that we may train the neural networks models using both supervised and unsupervised strategies. We first illustrate applications to the reconstruction of Lorenz-63 and Lorenz-96 systems from partial and noisy observations. Whereas the gain issued from the supervised learning setting emphasizes the relevance of groundtruthed observation dataset for real-world case-studies, these results also suggest new means to design data assimilation models from data. Especially, they suggest that learning task-oriented representations of the underlying dynamics may be beneficial. We further discuss applications to short-term forecasting and sampling design along with preliminary results for the reconstruction of sea surface currents from satellite altimetry data. </p><p>This abstract is supported by a preprint available online: https://arxiv.org/abs/2007.12941</p>

Chapter 17 discusses the S-matrix theory of two-dimensional integrable models. From a mathematical point of view, the two-dimensional nature of the systems and their integrability are the crucial features that lead to important simplifications of the formalism and its successful application. This chapter deals with the analytic theory of the S-matrix of the integrable models. A particular emphasis is put on the dynamical principle of bootstrap, which gives rise to a recursive structure of the amplitudes. It also covers several dynamical quantities, such as mass ratios or three-coupling constants, which have an elegant mathematic formulation that is also of easy geometrical interpretation.

The game of Banker’s Clock provides an interesting question in mathematical probability In this game the banker turns up in sequence the first twelve cards of a well-shuffled ordinary pack of 52 cards. He backs himself to turn up at least one card of which the face value corresponds to its position in the sequence, an Ace ranking as one, a Jack as eleven and a Queen as twelve. The interest in the question from the mathematical point of view is in finding the probability that the event will happen.

The discrete convolution based Fast Fourier Transform algorithm (DC-FFT) has been successfully applied in numerical simulation of contact problems. The algorithm is revisited from a mathematical point of view, equivalent to a Toeplitz matrix multiplied by a vector. The nature of the convolution property permits one to implement the algorithm with fewer constraints in choosing the computational domains. This advantageous feature is explored in the present work, and is expected to be beneficial to many tribological studies.

in the RFID system, the conflict caused by the multi-label has been affecting system performance. This paper proposed a grouping dynamic framed slotted ALOHA algorithm based on the analysis of ALOHA algorithm. According to the conflict situation, to make real-time estimates the number of tags on the dynamic framed slotted ALOHA algorithm from the mathematical point of view, Dynamically change the frame length or the labels are grouped to reduce the label probability of collisions, thereby improving the efficiency of the recognition.

Abstract This study considers the data assimilation problem in coupled systems, which consists of two components (subsystems) interacting with each other through certain coupling terms. A straightforward way to tackle the assimilation problem in such systems is to concatenate the states of the subsystems into one augmented state vector, so that a standard ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) can be directly applied. This work presents a divided state-space estimation strategy, in which data assimilation is carried out with respect to each individual subsystem, involving quantities from the subsystem itself and correlated quantities from other coupled subsystems. On top of the divided state-space estimation strategy, the authors also consider the possibility of running the subsystems separately. Combining these two ideas, a few variants of the EnKF are derived. The introduction of these variants is mainly inspired by the current status and challenges in coupled data assimilation problems and thus might be of interest from a practical point of view. Numerical experiments with a multiscale Lorenz 96 model are conducted to evaluate the performance of these variants against that of the conventional EnKF. In addition, specific for coupled data assimilation problems, two prototypes of extensions of the presented methods are also developed in order to achieve a trade-off between efficiency and accuracy.
