Stability analysis and control synthesis of uncertain Roesser-type discrete-time two-dimensional systems

We study the stability analysis and control synthesis of uncertain discrete-time two-dimensional(2D) systems.The mathematical model of the discrete-time 2D system is established upon the well-known Roesser model,and the uncertainty phenomenon,which appears typically in practical environments,is modeled by a convex bounded(polytope type) uncertain domain.The stability analysis and control synthesis of uncertain discrete-time 2D systems are then developed by applying the Lyapunov stability theory.In the processes of stability analysis and control synthesis,the obtained stability/stabilzaition conditions become less conservative by applying some novel relaxed techniques.Moreover,the obtained results are formulated in the form of linear matrix inequalities,which can be easily solved via standard numerical software.Finally,numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the obtained results.     

Pinning control of complex Lur'e networks

This paper addresses the control problem of a class of complex dynamical networks with each node being a Lur'e system whose nonlinearity satisfies a sector condition, by applying local feedback injections to a small fraction of the nodes. The pinning control problem is reformulated in the framework of the absolute stability theory. It is shown that the global stability of the controlled network can be reduced to the test of a set of linear matrix inequalities, which in turn guarantee the absolute stability of the corresponding Lur'e systems whose dimensions are the same as that of a single node. A circle-type criterion in the frequency domain is further presented for checking the stability of the controlled network graphically. Finally, a network of Chua's oscillators is provided as a simulation example to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.     

DMRG Studies on Properties of Undoped and Doped Molecule-Based Ferromagnetic Chain

By using density matrix renormalization group （DMRG） method a model for organic molecule-based ferromagnetic chain is proposed. It is found that the ground states of Undoped and doped systems both exhibit ferrimagnetic ordering. The e-e repulsion plays an important role in the stability of the ferromagnetic state either in doped system or undoped system. For the undoped system, each unit cell coatains half of the total spins, which is consistent with Lieb＇s theorem. It is convinced that when the system is doped with one electron, a charge density wave is excited, which decreases the amplitude of spin density wave,therefore acting against the stability of ferromagnetic state.

Analysis of the stability and density waves for traffic flow

In this paper, the optimal velocity model of traffic is extended to take into account the relative velocity. The stability and density waves for traffic flow are investigated analytically with the perturbation method. The stability criterion is derived by the linear stability analysis. It is shown that the triangular shock wave, soliton wave and kink wave appear respectively in our model for density waves in the three regions: stable, metastable and unstable regions. These correspond to the solutions of the Burgers equation, Korteweg－de Vries equation and modified Korteweg－de Vries equation. The analytical results are confirmed to be in good agreement with those of numerical simulation. All the results indicate that the interaction of a car with relative velocity can affect the stability of the traffic flow and raise critical density.     

The Stability Analysis for an Extended Car Following Model Based on Control Theory

A new method is proposed to study the stability of the car-following model considering traffic interruption probability. The stability condition for the extended ear-following model is obtained by using the Lyapunov function and the condition for no traffic jam is also given based on the control theory. Numerical simulations are conducted to demonstrate and verify the analytical results. Moreover, numerical simulations show that the traffic interruption probability has an influence on driving behavior and confirm the effectiveness of the method on the stability of traffic flow.     

The effect of anisotropic surface tension on the morphological stability of planar interface during directional solidification

This paper considers the effect of the anisotropic surface tension on the morphological stability of the planar interface during directional solidification. When the expression exhibiting the four-fold symmetry is included, the modified absolute stability criterion is obtained by employing the multi-variable expansion method. The linear stability analysis reveals that for the given temperature gradient, as the anisotropic surface tension parameter increases, the stability zone tends to decrease.

On thermodynamics near a steady state

The statistical deduction of a stability criterion for steady states (a generalization of the Glansdorff-Prigogine criterion) given in a previous paper is extended in some respects. Dynamical coefficients for the motion of small deviations from a steady state are expressed by correlation functions. The stability criterion is applied to some models of chemical reactions and to a model for second break-down in semiconductors.     

Theory of polarized electron beam production by field emission from ferromagnets

A theory is given for field emission from ferromagnetic solids in which the two spin subbands of the conduction band are split by exchange forces. Using a simple plane wave model for the conduction band states it is shown that the familiar WKB approximation for the tunneling probability has to be improved by momentum dependent factors to account for the spin polarization of the emission current observed in a recent experiment which is 8% in the case of Gd. The calculations are extended to describe emission from Bloch states. Applications of the theory to various ferromagnetic systems are discussed, the use of ferromagnetic Eu_1?xGd_xS as a source for highly polarized beams is suggested.

On the free energy in systems with separable interactions. III

In this paper we extend the calculation of the free energy in systems with separable interactions of the ferromagnetic type as given in paper I of this series to a more general class of systems characterized by a hamiltonian, in which the one-particle operator Σ_kT(k) is replaced by a more general operator T which may contain interactions as well. This extension enables us to simplify a great deal the derivation given in paper II of the lower bound to the free energy for systems with both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic interactions. We also discuss in some detail under which conditions the upper and the lower bounds can be equal. (The conditions include in particular the hamiltonian treated in paper II.)
