The [Formula: see text] (SBT) nanometer film can be used as a physical memristive component. Three oscillatory circuits built on the physical SBT memristor are proposed in this paper, one is self-excited oscillatory circuit and two are forced oscillatory circuits. These three oscillatory circuits have simple structures with complex dynamics. The self-excited oscillatory circuit can generate steady periodic oscillations; the first forced oscillatory circuit can generate relatively complex quasi-periodic oscillations, while the second can generate more complex dynamics such as chaotic oscillations. The impacts of the circuit parameter and initial state values of the SBT memristor on the dynamical behaviors of the three oscillatory circuits are investigated via numerical simulations. It is found that the SBT memristor can be used to design various memristor-based circuits. Specifically, in a flux-controlled memristor-based circuit, if an inductor is in parallel with the memristor, the order of the circuit is one less than the number of energy storage elements in the circuit. The equilibrium point of the circuit is different from the typical line equilibrium for autonomous circuits. The initial state value of the memristor has no impact on the steady state of the circuit. The same phenomena are observed for a charge-controlled memristor-based circuit, when a capacitor is in series with the memristor.

In this paper, we design a chaotic circuit with memristors, which consists of two flux-controlled memristors and a charge-controlled memristor, and the dimensionless mathematical model of the circuit was established. Using the conventional dynamic analysis methods, the equilibrium point set and stability of the chaotic system were analyzed, and the distribution of stable and unstable regions corresponding to the memristor initial states was determined. Then, we analyze the dynamical behaviors with the initial states of the memristors and the circuit parameter of the circuit system, respectively. By using spectral entropy (SE) and C0 complexity algorithms, the dynamic characteristics of the system were analyzed. In particular, the 2D and 3D complexity characteristics with multiple varying parameters were analyzed. Some peculiar physical phenomenon such as coexisting attractors was observed. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the chaotic circuit has rich dynamical behaviors. The complicated physical phenomenon in the new chaotic circuit enriches the related content of chaotic circuit with memristors.

We have analyzed glomerular sieving data from humans, rats in vivo, and from isolated perfused rat kidneys (IPK) and present a unifying hypothesis that seems to resolve most of the conflicting results that exist in the literature. Particularly important are the data obtained in the cooled IPK, because they allow a variety of experimental conditions for careful analysis of the glomerular barrier; conditions that never can be obtained in vivo. The data strongly support the classic concept of a negative charge barrier, but separate components seem to be responsible for charge and size selectivity. The new model is composed of a dynamic gel and a more static membrane layer. First, the charged gel structure close to the blood compartment has a charge density of 35–45 meq/l, reducing the concentration of albumin to 5–10% of that in plasma, due to ion-ion interactions. Second, the size-selective structure has numerous functional small pores (radius 45–50 Å) and far less frequent large pores (radius 75–115 Å), the latter accounting for 1% of the total hydraulic conductance. Both structures are required for the maintenance of an intact glomerular barrier.

Complex dynamics of a tritrophic food chain model is discussed in this paper. The model is composed of a logistic prey, a classical Lotka-Volterra functional response for prey-predator and a ratio-dependent functional response for predator-superpredator. Dynamical behaviors such as boundedness, stability and bifurcation of the model are studied critically. The effect of discrete time-delay on the model is investigated. Computer simulation of various solutions is presented to illustrate our mathematical findings. How these ideas illuminate some of the observed properties of real populations in the field is discussed and practical implications are explored.

Abstract Partial Shading Condition (PSC) is one of the key issues faced by Solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems. PSCs mainly occur due to clouds, shadows of trees/buildings, dust and so on. During the PSC, the shaded PV module acts like a sink and absorbs the power from highest irradiated modules in a string and leads to hotspot. This situation is highly vulnerable and has to be avoided. Bypass diodes are used in series configured PV modules to overcome the hotspot effect caused due to PSC. However, the use of bypass diodes leads to multiple peaks in the Power-Voltage (P-V) graph of a PV array. One among them is Global peak point, where PV array needs to operate under PSC. In such a case, some amount of power generated by the shaded modules gets wasted, which will lead to poor performance and efficiency of the overall system. Moreover, for standalone DC load applications an auxiliary supply also required to provide reliable supply to the load during night times and PSC. Normally, batteries are used in standalone systems as an auxiliary supply. To control the charging and discharging process of battery a bi-directional DC-DC converter is used as a charge/discharge controller. The amount of power that is being charged/discharged by batteries depends upon the load requirement and solar power availability. Under PSC, due to lack of extraction of PV power from shaded modules, batteries have to supply the deficient power to the load. This situation forces to increase the AH capacity of the battery to provide reliable supply. In this research article PV-Battery Hybrid system is proposed to improve the performance of PV under varying irradiance and load conditions with reduced AH capacity of battery for standalone DC loads. The performance assessment of proposed topology has been carried out with the comparison of percentage improvement in power extraction, percentage reduction in the average current consumption of battery and SoC delivered by battery with conventional methodologies of bypass diode and proposed methodology under PSC. The assessment is carried out on MATLAB/SIMULINK and results are presented.

By replacing the resistor in a Twin-T network with a generalized flux-controlled memristor, this paper proposes a simple fourth-order memristive Twin-T oscillator. Rich dynamical behaviors can be observed in the dynamical system. The most striking feature is that this system has various periodic orbits and various chaotic attractors generated by adjusting parameter [Formula: see text]. At the same time, coexisting attractors and antimonotonicity are also detected (especially, two full Feigenbaum remerging trees in series are observed in such autonomous chaotic systems). Their dynamical features are analyzed by phase portraits, Lyapunov exponents, bifurcation diagrams and basin of attraction. Moreover, hardware experiments on a breadboard are carried out. Experimental measurements are in accordance with the simulation results. Finally, a multi-channel random bit generator is designed for encryption applications. Numerical results illustrate the usefulness of the random bit generator.

This article introduces a new hyperchaotic system of four-dimensional autonomous ordinary differential equations, with only cubic cross-product nonlinearities, which can respectively display two hyperchaotic attractors with only nonhyperbolic equilibria line. Several issues such as basic dynamical behaviors, routes to chaos, bifurcations, periodic windows, and the compound structure of the new hyperchaotic and chaotic system are investigated, either theoretically or numerically. Of particular interest is the fact that the two coexisting attractors of the new hyperchaotic system are symmetrical, and this hyperchaotic system can generate plenty of complex dynamics including two coexisting chaotic or periodic attractors. Moreover, some chaotic features of the attractor are justified numerically. Finally, 0-1 test is used to analyze and describe the complex chaotic dynamic behavior of the new system.

The conventional cascode structure for driving depletion-mode (D-mode) gallium nitride (GaN) high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) raises reliability concerns. This is because of the possibility of the gate to source voltage of the GaN HEMT surging to a negative voltage during the turn off transition. The existing solutions for this problem in the literature produce additional drawbacks such as reducing the switching frequency or introducing many additional components. These drawbacks may outweigh the advantages of using a GaN HEMT over its silicon (Si) alternative. This paper proposes two innovative gate drive circuits for D-mode GaN HEMTs—namely the GaN-switching based cascode GaN HEMT and the modified GaN-switching based cascode GaN HEMT. In these schemes, the Si MOSFET in series with the D-mode GaN HEMT is always turned on during regular operation. The GaN HEMT is then switched on and off by using a charge pump based circuit and a conventional gate driver. Since the GaN HEMT is driven independently, the highly negative gate-to-source voltage surge during turn off is avoided, and in addition, high switching frequency operation is made possible. Only two diodes and one capacitor are used in each of the schemes. The application of the proposed circuits is experimentally demonstrated in a high voltage flyback converter, where more than 96% efficiency is obtained for 60 W output load.

The objective of the article is to study the dynamics of the proposed fractional-order Cournot triopoly game. Sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the triopoly game solution are obtained. Stability analysis of equilibrium points of the fractional-order game is also discussed. The conditions for the presence of Nash equilibrium point along with its global stability analysis are studied. The interesting dynamical behaviors of the arbitrary-order Cournot triopoly game are discussed. Moreover, the effects of seasonal periodic forcing on the game’s behaviors are examined. The 0–1 test is used to distinguish between regular and irregular dynamics of system behaviors. Numerical analysis is used to verify the theoretical results that are obtained, and revealed that the nonautonomous fractional-order model induces more complicated dynamics in the Cournot triopoly game behavior and the seasonally forced game exhibits more complex dynamics than the unforced one.
