Exact and analytical solutions for a nonlinear sigma model

We consider wave solutions to nonlinear sigma models in n dimensions. First, we reduce the system of governing PDEs into a system of ODEs through a traveling wave assumption. Under a new transform, we then reduce this system into a single nonlinear ODE. Making use of the method of homotopy analysis, we are able to construct approximate analytical solutions to this nonlinear ODE. We apply two distinct auxiliary linear operators and show that one of these permits solutions with lower residual error than the other. This demonstrates the effectiveness of properly selecting the auxiliary linear operator when performing homotopy analysis of a nonlinear problem. From here, we then obtain residual error‐minimizing values of the convergence control parameter. We find that properly selecting the convergence control parameter makes a drastic difference in the magnitude of the residual error. Together, appropriate selection of the auxiliary linear operator and of the convergence control parameter is shown to allow approximate solutions that quickly converge to the true solution, which means that few terms are needed in the construction of such solution. This, in turn, greatly improves computational efficiency. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

A new method for solving nonlinear second order partial differential equations

In this paper, a new method for finding the approximate solution of a second order nonlinear partial differential equation is introduced. In this method the problem is transformed to an equivalent optimization problem. Then, by considering it as a distributed parameter control system, the theory of measure is used for obtaining the approximate solution of the original problem.     

Optimization for nonlinear hyperbolic equations without the uniqueness theorem for a solution of the boundary-value problem

We consider the optimal control problem for a system governed by a nonlinear hyperbolic equation without any constraints on the parameter of nonlinearity. No uniqueness theorem is established for a solution to this problem. The control-state mapping of this system is not Gateaux differentiable. We study an approximate solution of the optimal control problem by means of the penalty method.     

A computational method for free terminal time optimal control problem governed by nonlinear time delayed systems

This paper considers a free terminal time optimal control problem governed by nonlinear time delayed system, where both the terminal time and the control are required to be determined such that a cost function is minimized subject to continuous inequality state constraints. To solve this free terminal time optimal control problem, the control parameterization technique is applied to approximate the control function as a piecewise constant control function, where both the heights and the switching times are regarded as decision variables. In this way, the free terminal time optimal control problem is approximated as a sequence of optimal parameter selection problems governed by nonlinear time delayed systems, each of which can be viewed as a nonlinear optimization problem. Then, a fully informed particle swarm optimization method is adopted to solve the approximate problem. Finally, two free terminal time optimal control problems, including an optimal fishery control problem, are solved by using the proposed method so as to demonstrate its applicability.     

Multiscaling analysis of a slowly varying anaerobic digestion model

We construct the slowly varying limiting state solutions to a nonlinear dynamical system for anaerobic digestion with Monod-based kinetics involving slowly varying model parameters arising from slow environmental variation. The advantage of these approximate solutions over numerical solutions is their applicability to a wide range of parameter values. We use these limiting state solutions to develop analytic approximations to the full nonlinear system by applying a multiscaling technique. The approximate solutions are shown to compare favorably with numerical solutions.     

Optimal control for systems described by hyperbolic equations with strong nonlinearity

An optimization control problem for a hyperbolic equation is considered. The system is nonlinear with respect to the state derivative. The regularization technique for the state equation is applied. The necessary conditions of optimality for the regularized control problem are proved. It uses the extended differentiability of the control-state mapping for the regularized equation. The convergence of the regularization method is proved. Thus the optimal control for the regularized problem with a small enough regularization parameter can be chosen as an approximate solution of the initial optimization problem.     

Modelling and analysis of the nonlinear string-mass structure of the vibration absorber

ABSTRACT

In this paper a nonlinear string-mass structure of the vibration absorber is analyzed. This structure is convenient to be installed in vibration damping systems of high buildings for their protection in the case of earthquake. The considered string-mass structure contains a translator movable mass connected with two strings. Due to nonlinear geometric properties of the system the motion of the mass is described with a strong nonlinear second order differential equation. In the paper the approximate procedure for solving of the nonlinear equation of motion is developed. Based on the solution the influence of the string preloading force, slider mass and friction force on the vibration property of the string-mass system is investigated. It is concluded that variation of the preloading string force may be applied as a control parameter for vibration absorption and as the regulator of vibration decay time.     

Newton–harmonic balancing approach for accurate solutions to nonlinear cubic–quintic Duffing oscillators

This paper presents a new approach for solving accurate approximate analytical higher-order solutions for strong nonlinear Duffing oscillators with cubic–quintic nonlinear restoring force. The system is conservative and with odd nonlinearity. The new approach couples Newton’s method with harmonic balancing. Unlike the classical harmonic balance method, accurate analytical approximate solutions are possible because linearization of the governing differential equation by Newton’s method is conducted prior to harmonic balancing. The approach yields simple linear algebraic equations instead of nonlinear algebraic equations without analytical solution. Using the approach, accurate higher-order approximate analytical expressions for period and periodic solution are established. These approximate solutions are valid for small as well as large amplitudes of oscillation. In addition, it is not restricted to the presence of a small parameter such as in the classical perturbation method. Illustrative examples are presented to verify accuracy and explicitness of the approximate solutions. The effect of strong quintic nonlinearity on accuracy as compared to cubic nonlinearity is also discussed.     

Semidiscrete Ritz-Galerkin approximation of nonlinear parabolic boundary control problems—Strong convergence of optimal controls

A class of optimal control problems for a parabolic equation with nonlinear boundary condition and constraints on the control and the state is considered. Associated approximate problems are established, where the equation of state is defined by a semidiscrete Ritz-Galerkin method. Moreover, we are able to allow for the discretization of admissible controls. We show the convergence of the approximate controls to the solution of the exact control problem, as the discretization parameter tends toward zero. This result holds true under the assumption of a certain sufficient second-order optimality condition.Dedicated to the 60th birthday of Lothar von Wolfersdorf     

Analytic approximate solutions of parameterized unperturbed and singularly perturbed boundary value problems

A novel approach is presented in this paper for approximate solution of parameterized unperturbed and singularly perturbed two-point boundary value problems. The problem is first separated into a simultaneous system regarding the unknown function and the parameter, and then a methodology based on the powerful homotopy analysis technique is proposed for the approximate analytic series solutions, whose convergence is guaranteed by optimally chosen convergence control parameters via square residual error. A convergence theorem is also provided. Several nonlinear problems are treated to validate the applicability, efficiency and accuracy of the method. Vicinity of the boundary layer is shown to be adequately treated and satisfactorily resolved by the method. Advantages of the method over the recently proposed conventional finite-difference or Runga–Kutta methods are also discussed.
