Transition Property

The stability boundaries of LTI time-delayed systems with respect to the delays are studied in two different domains: (i) delay space (DS) and (ii) spectral delay space (SDS), which contains pointwise frequency information as well as the delay. SDS is the preferred domain due to its advantageous boundedness properties and simple construct of stability transition boundaries. These transitions at the mentioned boundaries, however, present some conceptual challenges in SDS. This transition property enables us to extract the corresponding local stability variation properties in the DS, while it does not have any implication in the preferred SDS. The novel aspect of the investigation is to introduce a comparison mechanism between these two domains, DS and SDS, from the stability transition perspective. Interestingly, we are able to prove their equivalency, which provides complementary insight to the parametric stability variations.

Longitudinally Varying Tension

In this paper, the parametric stability of axially accelerating viscoelastic beams is revisited. The effects of the longitudinally varying tension due to the axial acceleration are highlighted, while the tension was approximately assumed to be longitudinally uniform in previous studies. The dependence of the tension on the finite support rigidity is also considered. The generalized Hamilton principle and the Kelvin viscoelastic constitutive relation are applied to establish the governing equations and the associated boundary conditions for coupled planar motion of the beam. The governing equations are linearized into the governing equation in the transverse direction and the expression of the longitudinally varying tension. The method of multiple scales is employed to analyze the parametric stability of transverse motion. The stability boundaries are derived from the solvability conditions and the Routh-Hurwitz criterion for principal and sum resonances. In terms of stability boundaries, the governing equations with or without the longitudinal variance of tension are compared and the effects of the finite support rigidity are also examined. Some numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the effects of the stiffness, the viscosity, and the mean axial speed on the stability boundaries. The differential quadrature scheme is developed to numerically solve the governing equation, and the computational results confirm the outcomes of the method of multiple scales.

Delay Space

It has been shown that the stability of LTI time-delayed systems with respect to the delays can be analyzed in two equivalent domains: (i) delay space (DS) and (ii) spectral delay space (SDS). Considering a broad class of linear time-invariant time delay systems with multiple delays, the equivalency of the stability transitions along the transition boundaries is studied in both spaces. For this we follow two corresponding radial lines in DS and SDS, and prove for the first time in literature that they are equivalent. This property enables us to extract local stability transition features within the SDS without going back to the DS. The main advantage of remaining in SDS is that, one can avoid a non-linear transition from kernel hypercurves to offspring hypercurves in DS. Instead the potential stability switching curves in SDS are generated simply by stacking a finite dimensional cube called the building block (BB) along the axes. A case study is presented within the report to visualize this property.

AbstractA review of the stability theory of symmetrizable time-dependent difference schemes is represented. The notion of the operator-difference scheme is introduced and general ideas about stability in the sense of the initial data and in the sense of the right hand side are formulated. Further, the so-called symmetrizable difference schemes are considered in detail for which we manage to formulate the unimprovable necessary and su±cient conditions of stability in the sense of the initial data. The schemes with variable weight multipliers are a typical representative of symmetrizable difference schemes. For such schemes a numerical algorithm is proposed and realized for constructing stability boundaries.

: Skin cancer, among the various kinds of cancers, is a type that emerges from skin due to the growth of abnormal cells. These cells are capable of spreading and invading the other parts of the body. The occurrence of non-melanoma and melanoma, which are the major types of skin cancers, has increased over the past decades. Exposure to ultraviolet radiations (UV) is the main associative cause of skin cancer. UV exposure can inactivate tumor suppressor genes while activating various oncogenes. The conventional techniques like surgical removal, chemotherapy and radiation therapy lack the potential for targeting cancer cells and harm the normal cells. However, the novel therapeutics show promising improvements in the effectiveness of treatment, survival rates and better quality of life for patients. Different methodologies are involved in the skin cancer therapeutics for delivering the active ingredients to the target sites. Nano carriers are very efficient as they have the ability to improve the stability of drugs and further enhance their penetration into the tumor cells. The recent developments and research in nanotechnology have entitled several targeting and therapeutic agents to be incorporated into nanoparticles for an enhancive treatment of skin cancer. To protect the research works in the field of nanolipoidal systems various patents have been introduced. Some of the patents acknowledge responsive liposomes for specific targeting, nanocarriers for the delivery or co-delivery of chemotherapeutics, nucleic acids as well as photosensitizers. Further recent patents on the novel delivery systems have also been included here.

We study the stability characteristics of zero-velocity gap solitons in dual-core Bragg gratings with cubic-quintic nonlinearity and dispersive reflectivity. The model supports two disjointed families of gap solitons (Type 1 and Type 2). Additionally, asymmetric and symmetric solitons exist in both Type 1 and Type 2 families. A comprehensive numerical stability analysis is performed to analyze the stability of solitons. It is found that dispersive reflectivity improves the stability of both types of solitons. Nontrivial stability boundaries have been identified within the bandgap for each family of solitons. The effects and interplay of dispersive reflectivity and the coupling coefficient on the stability regions are also analyzed.

Left Portion

In this paper, we consider an infinite-dimensional extension of Chua's circuit (Fig. 1) obtained by replacing the left portion of the circuit composed of the capacitance C2 and the inductance L by a lossless transmission line as shown in Fig. 2. As we shall see, if the remaining capacitance C1 is equal to zero, the dynamics of this so-called time-delayed Chua's circuit can be reduced to that of a scalar nonlinear difference equation. After deriving the corresponding 1-D map, it will be possible to determine without any approximation the analytical equation of the stability boundaries of cycles of every period n. Since the stability region is nonempty for each n, this proves rigorously that the time-delayed Chua's circuit exhibits the "period-adding" phenomenon where every two consecutive cycles are separated by a chaotic region.

Abstract Electrorheological (ER) fluids are known to exhibit damping and stiffness properties which are highly dependent on the induced electrical field strength within the ER medium. Incorporation of ER fluid within a structural member then provides a means of stiffness and damping variation of the member. A structural member with embedded ER fluid is considered. Equations governing the axial and transverse motions of the member are reduced to a system of linear ordinary differential equations with time-varying coefficients. Application of the multiple time scales method results in amplitude-frequency relations. A control method is considered in which the effect of embedded ER fluid damping modulation using a simple harmonic excitation voltage on the parametric stability boundaries of the member is examined. Results indicate that the parametric stability boundaries can change effecting various modulation amplitudes and frequencies.

The Stability

In this study we have developed a unique method for synthesizing very reactive water splitting materials that will remain stable at temperatures as high as 1450 °C to efficiently produce clean hydrogen from concentrated solar energy. The hydrogen production for a laboratory scale reactor using a “Thermo-mechanical Stabilized Porous Structure” (TSPS) is experimentally investigated for oxidation and thermal reduction temperatures of 1200 and 1450 °C, respectively. The stability and reactivity of a 10 g TSPS over many consecutive oxidation and thermal reduction cycles for different particle size ranges has been investigated. The novel thermo-mechanical stabilization exploits sintering and controls the geometry of the matrix of particles inside the structure in a favorable manner so that the chemical reactivity of the structure remains intact. The experimental results demonstrate that this structure yields peak hydrogen production rates of 1–2 cm3/(min.gFe3O4) during the oxidation step at 1200 °C and the 30 minute thermal reduction step at 1450 ° C without noticeable degradation over many consecutive cycles. The hydrogen production rate is one of the highest yet reported in the open literature for thermochemical looping processes using thermal reduction. This novel process has strong potential for developing an enabling technology for efficient and commercially viable solar fuel production.
