在几何和参数上表示同一条曲线的两条有理NURBS曲线的权与控制顶点之间的关系

The paper discusses the relationship between weights and control vertices of two rational NURBS curves of degree two or three with all weights larger than zero when they represent the same curve parametrically and geometrically, and gives sufficient and necessary conditions for coincidence of two rational NURBS curves in non-degeneracy case.     

Convex duality for finite-fuel problems in singular stochastic control

Upon introducing a finite-fuel constraint in a stochastic control system, the convex duality formulation can be set up to represent the original singular control problem as a minimization problem over the space of vector measures at each level of available fuel. This minimization problem is imbedded tightly into a related weak problem, which is actually a mathematical programming problem over a convex,w*-compact space of vector-valued Radon measures. Then, through the Fenchel duality principle, the dual for the finite-fuel control problems is to seek the maximum of smooth subsolutions to a dynamic programming variational inequality. The approach is basically in the spirit of Fleming and Vermes, and the results of this paper extend those of Vinter and Lewis in deterministic control problems to the finite-fuel problems in singular stochastic control. Meanwhile, we also obtain the characterization of the value function as a solution to the dynamic programming variational inequality in the sense of the Schwartz distribution.The author is much indebted to Professor Wendell H. Fleming for his constant support and many helpful discussions during the preparation of this paper.

Global optimization approach to nonlinear optimal control

To determine the optimum in nonlinear optimal control problems, it is proposed to convert the continuous problems into a form suitable for nonlinear programming (NLP). Since the resulting finite-dimensional NLP problems can present multiple local optima, a global optimization approach is developed where random starting conditions are improved by using special line searches. The efficiency, speed, and reliability of the proposed approach is examined by using two examples.Financial support from the Natural Science and Engineering Research Council under Grant A-3515 as well as an Ontario Graduate Scholarship are gratefully acknowledged.

Evaluation of Support in Singing

This study searched for perceptual, acoustic, and physiological correlates of support in singing. Seven trained professional singers (four women and three men) sang repetitions of the syllable [pa:] at varying pitch and sound levels (1) habitually (with support) and (2) simulating singing without support. Estimate of subglottic pressure was obtained from oral pressure during [p]. Vocal fold vibration was registered with dual-channel electroglottography. Acoustic analyses were made on the recorded samples. All samples were also evaluated by the singers and other listeners, who were trained singers, singing students, and voice specialists without singing education (a total of 63 listeners). We rated both the overall voice quality and the amount of support. According to the results, it seemed impossible to observe any auditory differences between supported singing and good singing voice quality. The acoustic and physiological correlates of good voice quality in absolute values seem to be gender and task dependent, whereas the relative optimum seems to be reached at intermediate parameter values.     

Hybrid passive/active absorbers for flow ducts

A new type of acoustic liner developed for broadband noise reduction in flow ducts is considered in this paper. It combines passive absorbent properties of a porous layer and active control at its rear face. The complete design procedure of this hybrid passive/active liner is developed here. The passive part is first considered with the determination of a suitable porous material and the cut-off frequency separating the active low frequency regime from the passive high frequency one. The control system is then presented: a digital adaptive feedback control is performed independently cell by cell, allowing an easy subsequent increase of the liner surface. The entire optimization process has been successfully applied to a laboratory flow duct: both predictions and measurements show the interest of the hybrid liner to reduce the noise radiation.

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.
