Isomorphous inclusions of silicon, aluminum, and titanium in the germanate zeolite IPC-3

The zeolite IPC-3, isomorphous with germanate zeolite ASU-16, and its silicon, aluminum, and titanium analogs, were obtained in the presence of 1,6-diaminohexane as a template. It is possible to incorporate selectively the elements in different crystallographic positions, determined by the nature of the element, particularly its valency and its coordination number with respect to oxygen. Silicon takes tetrahedral positions in the IPC-3 lattice, Al either tetrahedral or octahedral positions, and Ti octahedral positions. Small amounts of the lithium cations facilitate tetrahedral coordination and increase the Al content in IPC-3. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i éksperimental’naya Khimiya, Vol. 42, No. 4, pp. 246–251, July–August, 2006.     

Existence Theorems of Quasivariational Inclusion Problems with Applications to Bilevel Problems and Mathematical Programs with Equilibrium Constraint

In this paper, we establish existence theorems of quasivariational inclusion problems; from them, we establish existence theorems of mathematical programs with quasivariational inclusion constraint, bilevel problems, mathematical programs with equilibrium constraint and semi-infinite problems.

Well-posedness results for a model of damage in thermoviscoelastic materials

This paper deals with a phase transitions model describing the evolution of damage in thermoviscoelastic materials. The resulting system is highly non-linear, mainly due to the presence of quadratic dissipative terms and non-smooth constraints on the variables. Existence and uniqueness of a solution are proved, as well as regularity results, on a suitable finite time interval.

Convergence of solutions of kinetic variational inequalities in the rate-independent quasi-static limit

This paper discusses the convergence of kinetic variational inequalities to rate-independent quasi-static variational inequalities. Mathematical formulations as well as existence and uniqueness results for kinetic and rate-independent quasi-static problems are provided. Sharp a priori estimates for the kinetic problem are derived that imply that the kinetic solutions converge to the rate-independent ones, when the size of initial perturbations and the rate of application of the forces tend to 0. An application to three-dimensional elastic-plastic systems with hardening is given.     

A novel proof of the existence of solutions for a new system of generalized mixed quasi-variational-like inclusions involving (<Emphasis Type="Italic">A</Emphasis>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">η</Emphasis>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">m</Emphasis>)-accretive operators

In this paper, we introduce a new system of generalized mixed quasi-variational-like inclusions with (A, η, m)-accretive operators and relaxed cocoercive mappings. By using the fixed point theorem of Nadler, we prove the existence of solutions for this general system of generalized mixed quasi-variational-like inclusions and its special cases. The results in this paper unify, extend and improve some known results in the literature. The novel proof method is simpler than those iterative algorithm approach for proving the existence of solutions of all classes of system of set-valued variational inclusions in the literature.     

Further results on adaptive full-order and reduced-order observers for Lur’e differential inclusions

This paper is concerned with the adaptive observer design of Lur’e differential inclusions with unknown parameters. Under a relaxed assumption on nonlinear perturbation functions, a sufficient condition for the existence of an adaptive full-order observer is established. Comparing with results in the literature, the present conditions are complemented with a numerically reliable computational approach, which can be checked by means of linear matrix inequalities. Furthermore, it is shown that, under the sufficient condition, the existence of a reduced-order observer is guaranteed. Also, the reduced-order observer is designed. The effectiveness of the proposed design is illustrated via a simulation example.

A transmission problem on a polygonal partition: regularity and shape differentiability

We consider a transmission problem on a polygonal partition for the two-dimensional conductivity equation. For suitable classes of partitions we establish the exact behaviour of the gradient of solutions in a neighbourhood of the vertexes of the partition. This allows to prove shape differentiability of solutions and to establish an explicit formula for the shape derivative.
