Improved precise integration method for differential Riccati equation

An improved precise integration method （IPIM） for solving the differential Riccati equation （DRE） is presented. The solution to the DRE is connected with the exponential of a Hamiltonian matrix, and the precise integration method （PIM） for solving the DRE is connected with the scaling and squaring method for computing the exponential of a matrix. The error analysis of the scaling and squaring method for the exponential of a matrix is applied to the PIM of the DRE. Based ,on the error analysis, the criterion for choosing two parameters of the PIM is given. Three kinds of IPIMs for solving the DRE are proposed. The numerical examples machine accuracy solutions. show that the IPIM is stable and gives the

High order symplectic conservative perturbation method for time-varying Hamiltonian system

This paper presents a high order symplectic con- servative perturbation method for linear time-varying Hamil- tonian system. Firstly, the dynamic equation of Hamilto- nian system is gradually changed into a high order pertur- bation equation, which is solved approximately by resolv- ing the Hamiltonian coefficient matrix into a ＂major compo- nent＂ and a ＂high order small quantity＂ and using perturba- tion transformation technique, then the solution to the orig- inal equation of Hamiltonian system is determined through a series of inverse transform. Because the transfer matrix determined by the method in this paper is the product of a series of exponential matrixes, the transfer matrix is a sym- plectic matrix; furthermore, the exponential matrices can be calculated accurately by the precise time integration method, so the method presented in this paper has fine accuracy, ef- ficiency and stability. The examples show that the proposed method can also give good results even though a large time step is selected, and with the increase of the perturbation or- der, the perturbation solutions tend to exact solutions rapidly.
