The decoupling of second-order linear systems with a singular mass matrix

It was demonstrated in earlier work that a nondefective, linear dynamical system with an invertible mass matrix in free or forced motion may be decoupled in the configuration space by a real and isospectral transformation. We extend this work by developing a procedure for decoupling a linear dynamical system with a singular mass matrix in the configuration space, transforming the original differential-algebraic system into decoupled sets of real, independent, first- and second-order differential equations. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate the application of the decoupling procedure.     

The decoupling of defective linear dynamical systems in free motion

It was demonstrated in two earlier papers that there exists a real, linear, time-varying transformation that decouples any non-defective linear dynamical system in free vibration in the configuration space. As an extension of this work, the present paper represents the first systematic effort to decouple defective systems. It is shown that the decoupling of defective systems is a rather delicate procedure that depends on the multiplicities of the system eigenvalues. While any defective system can be decoupled with the eigenvalues kept invariant, the geometric multiplicities of these eigenvalues may not be preserved. Several numerical examples are provided to illustrate the theoretical developments.     

A real decoupled method and free interface component mode synthesis methods for generally damped systems

This paper reports on the development of a new transformation method. In contrast to most existing mode transformation methods in which the first-order state-space equation of the damped vibration system is transformed into a decoupled form with complex coefficient matrices, using the decoupled method presented in this paper, the equation of the damped system can be decomposed into a decoupled equation with real coefficient matrices. Two new free interface component mode synthesis methods are also presented. The equivalent full-mode matrix of the damped structure is used to capture the effects of the higher-order modes. Additionally, this work modifies the compatibility conditions at the junctions that are employed in most of the previous component mode synthesis methods for generally damped systems. The first component mode synthesis method is performed in complex space, whereas the second method can be applied in real space. Because the coefficient matrices of the coupled equation constructed by the second component mode synthesis method are all real-valued, the solution of the eigenproblem for this coupled equation can be performed in real space as well. Additionally, numerical examples demonstrate the accuracy and validity of these two component mode synthesis methods.

A physical perspective on classical cloning

The celebrated quantum no-cloning theorem states that an arbitrary quantum state cannot be cloned perfectly. This raises questions about cloning of classical states, which have also attracted attention. Here, we present a physical approach to the classical cloning process showing how cloning can be realised using Hamiltonians. After writing down a canonical transformation that clones classical states, we show how this can be implemented by Hamiltonian evolution. We then propose an experiment using the tools of nonlinear optics to realise the ideas presented here. Finally, to understand the cloning process in a more realistic context, we introduce statistical mechanical noise to the system and study how this affects the cloning process. While most of our work deals with linear systems and harmonic oscillators, we give some examples of cloning maps on manifolds and show that any system whose configuration space is a group manifold admits a cloning canonical transformation.     

The decoupling of damped linear systems in free or forced vibration

The purpose of this paper is to extend classical modal analysis to decouple any viscously damped linear system in non-oscillatory free vibration or in forced vibration. Based upon an exposition of how exponential decay in a system can be regarded as imaginary oscillations, the concept of damped modes of imaginary vibration is introduced. By phase synchronization of these real and physically excitable modes, a time-varying transformation is constructed to decouple non-oscillatory free vibration. When time drifts caused by viscous damping and by external excitation are both accounted for, a time-varying decoupling transformation for forced vibration is derived. The decoupling procedure devised herein reduces to classical modal analysis for systems that are undamped or classically damped. This paper constitutes the second and final part of a solution to the “classical decoupling problem.” Together with an earlier paper, a general methodology that requires only the solution of a quadratic eigenvalue problem is developed to decouple any damped linear system.     

Nonlinear amplitude approximation for bilinear systems

An efficient method to predict vibration amplitudes at the resonant frequencies of dynamical systems with piecewise-linear nonlinearity is developed. This technique is referred to as bilinear amplitude approximation (BAA). BAA constructs a single vibration cycle at each resonant frequency to approximate the periodic steady-state response of the system. It is postulated that the steady-state response is piece-wise linear and can be approximated by analyzing the response over two time intervals during which the system behaves linearly. Overall the dynamics is nonlinear, but the system is in a distinct linear state during each of the two time intervals. Thus, the approximated vibration cycle is constructed using linear analyses. The equation of motion for analyzing the vibration of each state is projected along the overlapping space spanned by the linear mode shapes active in each of the states. This overlapping space is where the vibratory energy is transferred from one state to the other when the system switches from one state to the other. The overlapping space can be obtained using singular value decomposition. The space where the energy is transferred is used together with transition conditions of displacement and velocity compatibility to construct a single vibration cycle and to compute the amplitude of the dynamics. Since the BAA method does not require numerical integration of nonlinear models, computational costs are very low. In this paper, the BAA method is first applied to a single-degree-of-freedom system. Then, a three-degree-of-freedom system is introduced to demonstrate a more general application of BAA. Finally, the BAA method is applied to a full bladed disk with a crack. Results comparing numerical solutions from full-order nonlinear analysis and results obtained using BAA are presented for all systems.     

Dynamical realization of l-conformal Galilei algebra and oscillators

The method of nonlinear realizations is applied to the l-conformal Galilei algebra to construct a dynamical system without higher derivative terms in the equations of motion. A configuration space of the model involves coordinates, which parametrize particles in d spatial dimensions, and a conformal mode, which gives rise to an effective external field. It is shown that trajectories of the system can be mapped into those of a set of decoupled oscillators in d dimensions.     

Nonlinear effects of colored nonstationary noise: Exact results

The master equation is derived for random systems under nonlinear time-dependent conditions. The (non-Markov) process is of such a type that with a time-dependent state transformation the dynamics can be modelled by a nonlinear but drift-free Langevin equation. The focus is on the statistical content of resulting master equation. The existence of stationary solutions and the quality of approximative results is discussed.

Hirota method for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with an arbitrary linear time-dependent potential

In this paper, a Hirota method is developed for applying to the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with an arbitrary time-dependent linear potential which denotes the dynamics of soliton solutions in quasi-one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensation. The nonlinear Schrödinger equation is decoupled to two equations carefully. With a reasonable assumption the one- and two-soliton solutions are constructed analytically in the presence of an arbitrary time-dependent linear potential.     

Crossing scenario for a nonlinear non-Hermitian two-level system

The diabolic crossing scenario of two-state quantum systems can be generalized to a non-Hermitian case as well as to a nonlinear one. In the non-Hermitian case two different crossing types appear, distinguished according to the crossing or anticrossing of real parts or imaginary parts of the eigenvalues. In the nonlinear case additional stationary states can emerge, leading to looped structures in the eigenvalues. Here we discuss the basic properties of the most general situation, the combined nonlinear and non-Hermitian system. It is shown that the eigenvalues and eigenstates can be achieved from the real roots of a quartic equation. The corresponding crossing scenario is quite intricate and can be understood as a hybrid of the ones for the nonlinear Hermitian and the linear non-Hermitian systems. In addition, the implications of combined nonlinearity and non-Hermiticity on the system dynamics is studied in terms of a generalized Landau—Zener probability.

Critical examination of isolation system design paradigms for a coupled powertrain and frame: Partial torque roll axis decoupling methods given practical constraints

The torque roll axis motion decoupling concept is analytically and computationally studied in a realistic coupled powertrain and frame system using discrete, proportionally damped linear models. Recently, Hu and Singh (2012 [1]) (Journal of Sound and Vibration 331 (2012) 1498–1518) proposed new paradigms to fully decouple such a system. However, critical examination shows that the derivation does not always lead to a physically realizable system, as each powertrain mount is not referenced to a single location. This deficiency is overcome by deriving mount compatibility conditions to ensure realistic mount positions which are incorporated into proposed decoupling conditions. It is mathematically shown that full decoupling is not possible for a practical system, and therefore partial decoupling paradigms are pursued. Powertrain mount design using only the decoupled powertrain achieves better decoupling than minimizing conditions for the coupled system using a total least squares method. Further decoupling is obtained through frame isolation design using a decoupled frame model such that the torque roll mode is dominant over the frequency range considered. Other methods for limiting frame coupling are also briefly discussed.

Quantal Noether Identities and Their Applications

Based on the phase-space generating functional of the Green function for a system with a regular/singular Lagrangian, the quantal canonical Noether identities (NI) under the local and non-local transformation in extended phase have been derived, respectively. The result holds true whether the Jacobian of the transformation is equal to unity or not. Based on the configuration-space generating functional of the gauge-invariant system obtained by using Faddeev-Popov (FP) trick, the quantal NI under the local and non-local transformation in configuration space have been also deduced. It is showed that for a system with a singular Lagriangian one must use the effective action in the quantal NI instead of the classical action in corresponding classical NI. It is pointed out that in certain cases, the quantal NI may be converted into the quantal (weak) conservation laws by using the quantal equations of motion. This algorithm to derive the quantal conservation laws differs from the quantal first Noether theorem. The preliminary applications of this formulation to Yang-Mills (YM) fields and non-Abelian Chern-Simons (CS) theories are given. The quantal conserved quantities for non-local transformation in YM fields are obtained. The conserved BRS and PBRS quantities at the quantum level in non-Abelian CS theories are also found. The property of fractional spin in CS theories is discussed. PACS no11.10. Ef; 11.30.−j 11.15. −q.     

On the definition of the natural frequency of oscillations in nonlinear large rotation problems

Computational multibody system algorithms allow for performing eigenvalue analysis at different time points during the simulation to study the system stability. The nonlinear equations of motion are linearized at these time points, and the resulting linear equations are used to determine the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the system. In the case of linear systems, the system eigenvalues remain the same under a constant coordinate transformation; and zero eigenvalues are always associated with rigid body modes, while nonzero eigenvalues are associated with non-rigid body motion. These results, however, cannot in general be applied to nonlinear multibody systems as demonstrated in this paper. Different sets of large rotation parameters lead to different forms of the nonlinear and linearized equations of motion, making it necessary to have a correct interpretation of the obtained eigenvalue solution. As shown in this investigation, the frequencies associated with different sets of orientation parameters can differ significantly, and rigid body motion can be associated with non-zero oscillation frequencies, depending on the coordinates used. In order to demonstrate this fact, the multibody system motion equations associated with the system degrees of freedom are presented and linearized. The resulting linear equations are used to define an eigevalue problem using the state space representation in order to account for general damping that characterizes multibody system applications. In order to demonstrate the significant differences between the eigenvalue solutions associated with two different sets of orientation parameters, a simple rotating disk example is considered in this study. The equations of motion of this simple example are formulated using Euler angles, Euler parameters and Rodriguez parameters. The results presented in this study demonstrate that the frequencies obtained using computational multibody system algorithms should not in general be interpreted as the system natural frequencies, but as the frequencies of the oscillations of the coordinates used to describe the motion of the system.     

Computing Ground State Solution of Bose-Einstein Condensates Trapped in One-Dimensional Harmonic Potential

For Bose-Einstein condensates trapped in a harmonic potential well, we present numerical results from solving the time-dependent nonlinear Schr(o)dinger equation based on the Crank-Nicolson method. With this method we are able to find the ground state wave function and energy by evolving the trial initial wave function in real and imaginary time spaces, respectively. In real time space, the results are in agreement with [Phys. Rev. A 51 (1995) 4704],but the trial wave function is restricted in a very small range. On the contrary, in imaginary time space, the trial wave function can be chosen widely, moreover, the results are stable.     

Model Decoupled Synchronization Control Design with Fractional Order Filter for H-Type Air Floating Motion Platform

H-type motion platform with linear motors is widely used in two-degrees-of-freedom motion systems, and one-direction dual motors need to be precisely controlled with strict synchronization for high precision performance. In this paper, a synchronous control method based on model decoupling is proposed. The dynamic model of an H-type air floating motion platform is established and one direction control using two motors with position dependency coupling is decoupled and converted into independent position and rotation controls, separately. For the low damping second-order oscillation system of the rotation control loop, a new fractional order biquad filtering method is proposed to generate an antiresonance peak to improve the phase and control gain of the open loop system, which can ensure system stability and quick attenuation for external disturbances. In the multiple-degree-of-freedom decoupled control loops, a systematic feedback controller design methodology is proposed to satisfy the given frequency domain design specifications; a feed-forward control strategy is also applied to compensate the disturbance torque caused by the platform motion. The simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed synchronization control method is effective, and achieves better disturbance rejection performance than the existing optimal cancellation filtering method and biquad filtering method.
