Perturbation Sensitivity and Limit Loads of Shells

The perturbation sensitivity and its influence on the limit loads of shells are widely discussed phenomena. Both phenomena may be classified with respect to the type of perturbation. As perturbations influence the stability of shells, the identification of unfavourable perturbations is essential. The perturbation energy concept enables to identify unfavourable non–initial perturbation loads and to evaluate the perturbation sensitivity of fundamental states by the perturbation energy. This measure is also the basis for a load–level–specific optimisation of the perturbation sensitivity. Hence, the present paper discusses primarily the perturbation sensitivity of axially loaded cylindrical shells with different boundary conditions. (© 2008 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Linearized perturbation method for stochastic analysis of a rill erosion model

The linearization and correction method (LCM) proposed by He is a simple and effective perturbation technique to solve nonlinear equations. To analyze the random properties of rill erosion model, a new stochastic perturbation technique called linearized perturbation method is developed by combining the traditional stochastic perturbation method with the LCM. Comparisons between the numerical results obtained by the linearized perturbation method and those obtained by Monte Carlo method indicated an excellent agreement. However, the calculation efficiency of the linearized perturbation method is higher.     

Solutions of evolution inclusions generated by a difference of subdifferentials

An evolution inclusion with the right-hand side containing the difference of subdifferentials of proper convex lower semicontinuous functions and a multivalued perturbation whose values are nonconvex closed sets is considered in a separable Hilbert space. In addition to the original inclusion, we consider an inclusion with convexified perturbation and a perturbation whose values are extremal points of the convexified perturbation that also belong to the values of the original perturbation. Questions of the existence of solutions under various perturbations are studied and relations between solutions are established. The primary focus is on the weakening of assumptions on the perturbation as compared to the known assumptions under which existence and relaxation theorems are valid. All our assumptions, in contrast to the known assumptions, concern the convexified rather than original perturbation.

Sensitivity analysis in vector optimization

For a vector optimization problem that depends on a parameter vector, the sensitivity analysis of perturbation, proper perturbation, and weak perturbation maps is dealth with. Each of the perturbation maps is defined as a set-valued map which associates to each parameter value the set of all minimal, properly minimal, and weakly minimal points of the perturbed feasible set in the objective space with respect to a fixed ordering cone. Using contingent cones in a finite-dimensional Euclidean space, we investigate the relationship between the contingent derivatives of the three types of perturbation maps and three types of minimal point sets for the contingent derivative of the feasible-set map in the objective space. These results provide quantitative informations on the behavior of the perturbation maps.The authors would like to thank the referees for their valuable comments and suggestions.

A unified approach for solving nonlinear regular perturbation problems

This aritcle describes a simple alternative unified method of solving nonlinear regular perturbation problems. The procedure is based upon the manipulation of Taylor's approximation for the expansion of the nonlinear term in the perturbed equation.

An essential feature of this technique is the relative simplicity used and the associated unified computational procedure that is employed. As such it should be of interest to teachers of applied mathematics courses, particularly those courses which include perturbation methods.

One of the merits of this approach is that it leads on naturally to a scheme based on Taylor's expansions and, consequently, allows the regular perturbation method to be introduced into a course much earlier than is currently common.

The method is illustrated by implementing it to four perturbation problems, including two algebraic equations and two initial-value problems. The new approach is compared and contrasted with the traditional perturbation scheme in order to demonstrate its relative merit.     

Robust invariant stabilization of nonlinear continuous and discrete systems

Two classes of continuous systems described by differential equations in which coefficients are functions of the state vector are considered. The systems are subject to two scalar controls and a constantly acting scalar perturbation.An analytical synthesis of a control is performed under which the system is invariant in the sense that the scalar output of the system approaches zero as time tends to infinity and does not depend on the perturbation; moreover, the limit norm of the state vector is bounded above by the least upper bound for the norm of perturbation. The case where the coefficients of the system are subject to an uncontrolled additive perturbation is considered. In this case, the limit of the output norm is bounded above by a known function of the perturbation value. The method of synthesis is based on constructing the Lyapunov function as a positive definite quadratic form with Jacobian matrix.

Numerical computation of nonlinear fractional Zakharov–Kuznetsov equation arising in ion-acoustic waves

The main aim of the present work is to propose a new and simple algorithm for fractional Zakharov–Kuznetsov equations by using homotopy perturbation transform method (HPTM). The Zakharov–Kuznetsov equation was first derived for describing weakly nonlinear ion-acoustic waves in strongly magnetized lossless plasma in two dimensions. The homotopy perturbation transform method is an innovative adjustment in Laplace transform algorithm (LTA) and makes the calculation much simpler. HPTM is not limited to the small parameter, such as in the classical perturbation method. The method gives an analytical solution in the form of a convergent series with easily computable components, requiring no linearization or small perturbation. The numerical solutions obtained by the proposed method indicate that the approach is easy to implement and computationally very attractive.     

Assessing Local Influence in Canonical Correlation Analysis

The first order local influence approach is adopted in this paper to assess the local influence of observations to canonical correlation coefficients, canonical vectors and several relevant test statistics in canonical correlation analysis. This approach can detect different aspects of influence due to different perturbation schemes. In this paper, we consider two different kinds, namely, the additive perturbation scheme and the case-weights perturbation scheme. It is found that, under the additive perturbation scheme, the influence analysis of any canonical correlation coefficient can be simplified to just observing two predicted residuals. To do the influence analysis for canonical vectors, a scale invariant norm is proposed. Furthermore, by choosing proper perturbation scales on different variables, we can compare the different influential effects of perturbations on different variables under the additive perturbation scheme. An example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the first order local influence approach.     

Stability and sensitivity analysis in multiobjective nonlinear programming

In this paper some results on stability and sensitivity analysis in multiobjective nonlinear programming are surveyed. Given a family of parametrized multiobjective programming problems, the perturbation map is defined as the set-valued map which associates to each parameter value the set of minimal points of the perturbed feasible set with respect to an ordering convex cone. The behavior of the perturbation map is analyzed both qualitatively and quantitatively. First, some sufficient conditions which guarantee the upper and lower semicontinuity of the perturbation map are provided. The contingent derivatives of the perturbation map are also studied. Moreover, it is shown that the results can be refined in the convex case.     

Soliton perturbation theory for the modified nonlinear Schrödinger’s equation

The soliton perturbation theory is used to study the solitons that are governed by the modified nonlinear Schrödinger’s equation. The adiabatic parameter dynamics of the solitons in presence of the perturbation terms are obtained. In particular, the nonlinear gain (damping) and filters or the coefficient of finite conductivity are treated as perturbation terms for the solitons.
