Observability and information structure of nonlinear systems

Creator:: Hwang, Chun Sik
Abstract:: An observability problem for both deterministic and stochastic systems is studied here. Deterministic observability is a determination of whether every state of the system is connected to the observation mechanism and how it is connected, if connected. On the other hand, stochastic observability discusses the "tightness" of the connection in...

Extended Kalman Filter Simulink Model for Nonlinear System Modeling

Creator:: So, Ratanak
Abstract:: The objective of the work presented herein is the development of the extended Kalman filter for nonlinear system modeling. A standard Kalman filter is a well-known filter for estimating the state of a system, assuming the system is linear and it has a Gaussian distribution in its noise. In reality,...

Stochastic analysis of complex nonlinear system response under narrowband excitations

Creator:: Shih, I-Ming
Abstract:: Response behavior of a nonlinear structural system subject to environmental loadings is investigated in this study. The system contains a nonlinear restoring force due to large geometric displacement. The external excitation is modeled as a narrowband stochastic process possessing dynamic characteristics of typical environmental loadings. A semi-analytical method is developed...

Stochastic analysis of a nonlinear ocean structural system

Creator:: Lin, Huan
Abstract:: Stochastic analysis procedures have been recently applied to analyze nonlinear dynamical systems. In this study, nonlinear responses, stochastic and/or chaotic, are examined and interpreted from a probabilistic perspective. A multi-point-moored ocean structural system under regular and irregular wave excitations is analytically examined via a generalized stochastic Melnikov function and Markov...

Neural network control of nonlinear discrete time systems

Creator:: Zakrzewski, Radoslaw Romuald
Abstract:: The main focus of this work is on the problem of existence of nonlinear optimal controllers realizable by artificial neural networks. Theoretical justification, currently available for control applications of neural networks, is rather limited. For example, it is unclear which neural architectures are capable of performing which control tasks. This...

Analysis of nonlinear pharmacokinetic systems and the nonlinear disposition of phenylbutazone in equine (horses)

Creator:: Ma, Lian
Abstract:: The first part of the dissertation is to evaluate the use of proposed and established equations for area under the plasma concentration versus time (AUC) for molecules undergoing nonlinear Michaelis–Menten pharmacokinetic elimination. The effects of varying Michaelis-Menten parameters, rate of drug absorption, or bioavailability on the predictability of drug exposure...

Normal modes in nonlinear nonsymmetrical systems with two degrees of freedom, and applications to air springs

Creator:: Moustafa, Mahmoud Abd-Elfattah
Abstract:: The study of nonlinear vibrations of systems having two degrees of freedom has met considerable attention during the past few years. Nonlinear symmetrical systems have received most of it. Normal mode motion of a system is defined as a periodic motion such that the masses of the system assume repeated...

A new comptutational method for constrained nonlinear programming

Creator:: Bhatia, Surendra P. S.
Abstract:: In this dissertation, a new computational method for equality constrained nonlinear programming is developed. Specifically, problems of minimizing a nonlinear objective function f(x) subject to constraints h(x) = 0, where f is a scalar valued, x is an n-vector and h is a m-vector with m < n is considered....

Determination of the Filippov solutions of the nonlinear oscillator with dry friction

Creator:: Moreland, Heather L.
Abstract:: In previous papers by Awrejcewicz in 1986 and Narayanan and Jayaraman in 1991, it was claimed that the nonlinear oscillator with dry friction exhibited chaos for several forcing frequencies. The chaos determination was achieved using the characteristic exponent of Lyapunov which requires the right-hand side of the differential equation to...
