THE MAPPING RELATION AMONG SOLUTION OF SOME NONLINEAR EQUATIONS

Among the solutions of three kinds of nonlinear equations in one dimensional systems, cubic nonlinear Klein-Gordon (including Φ~4), Sine-Gordon and double Sine-Gordon, some mapping relations exist. When a solution of any one equation is known, so are the other two.

Development of Granular Fuzzy Relation Equations Based on a Subset of Data

Developing and optimizing fuzzy relation equations are of great relevance in system modeling,which involves analysis of numerous fuzzy rules.As each rule varies with respect to its level of influence,it is advocated that the performance of a fuzzy relation equation is strongly related to a subset of fuzzy rules obtained by removing those without significant relevance.In this study,we establish a novel framework of developing granular fuzzy relation equations that concerns the determination of an optimal subset of fuzzy rules.The subset of rules is selected by maximizing their performance of the obtained solutions.The originality of this study is conducted in the following ways.Starting with developing granular fuzzy relation equations,an interval-valued fuzzy relation is determined based on the selected subset of fuzzy rules(the subset of rules is transformed to interval-valued fuzzy sets and subsequently the interval-valued fuzzy sets are utilized to form interval-valued fuzzy relations),which can be used to represent the fuzzy relation of the entire rule base with high performance and efficiency.Then,the particle swarm optimization(PSO)is implemented to solve a multi-objective optimization problem,in which not only an optimal subset of rules is selected but also a parameterεfor specifying a level of information granularity is determined.A series of experimental studies are performed to verify the feasibility of this framework and quantify its performance.A visible improvement of particle swarm optimization(about 78.56%of the encoding mechanism of particle swarm optimization,or 90.42%of particle swarm optimization with an exploration operator)is gained over the method conducted without using the particle swarm optimization algorithm.

A RIEMANN-HILBERT APPROACH TO THE INITIAL-BOUNDARY PROBLEM FOR DERIVATIVE NONLINEAR SCHRDINGER EQUATION

We use the Fokas method to analyze the derivative nonlinear Schrodinger （DNLS） equation iqt （x, t） = -qxx （x, t）＋（rq^2）x on the interval [0, L]. Assuming that the solution q（x, t） exists, we show that it can be represented in terms of the solution of a matrix Riemann- Hilbert problem formulated in the plane of the complex spectral parameter ξ. This problem has explicit （x, t） dependence, and it has jumps across {ξ∈C｜Imξ^4 = 0}. The relevant jump matrices are explicitely given in terms of the spectral functions {a（ξ）, b（ξ）}, {A（ξ）, B（ξ）}, and {A（ξ）, B（ξ）}, which in turn are defined in terms of the initial data q0（x） = q（x, 0）, the bound- ary data g0（t）= q（0, t）, g1（t） = qx（0, t）, and another boundary values f0（t） = q（L, t）, f1（t） = qx（L, t）. The spectral functions are not independent, but related by a compatibility condition, the so-called global relation.

A Simplified Method for Analyzing Truss Structure Due to Removal of Members

Based on relating equation group, a simplified method was presented in terms of the matrix displacement method, which can be conveniently used to study the re-distribution of the internal forces and displacement of truss structures due to the removal of members. Such removal is treated as though adding a load case to the original truss, and the re-distribution can be calculated without modifying the original global stiffness matrix. The computational efficiency of the presented method is faster by square times than that of the matrix displacement method. The results from the two methods are identical.

Solving type-2 fuzzy relation equations via semi-tensor product of matrices

The problem of solving type-2 fuzzy relation equations is investigated. In order to apply semi-tensor product of matrices, a new matrix analysis method and tool, to solve type-2 fuzzy relation equations, a type-2 fuzzy relation is decomposed into two parts as principal sub-matrices and secondary sub-matrices; an r-ary symmetrical-valued type-2 fuzzy relation model and its corresponding symmetrical-valued type-2 fuzzy relation equation model are established. Then, two algorithms are developed for solving type-2 fuzzy relation equations, one of which gives a theoretical description for general type-2 fuzzy relation equations; the other one can find all the solutions to the symmetrical-valued ones. The results can improve designing type-2 fuzzy controllers, because it provides knowledge to search the optimal solutions or to find the reason if there is no solution. Finally some numerical examples verify the correctness of the results/algorithms.

MINIMIZING A LINEAR FRACTIONAL FUNCTION SUBJECT TO A SYSTEM OF SUP-T EQUATIONS WITH A CONTINUOUS ARCHIMEDEAN TRIANGULAR NORM

This paper shows that the problem of minimizing a linear fractional function subject to asystem of sup-T equations with a continuous Archimedean triangular norm T can be reduced to a 0-1linear fractional optimization problem in polynomial time.Consequently,parametrization techniques,e.g.,Dinkelbach's algorithm,can be applied by solving a classical set covering problem in each iteration.Similar reduction can also be performed on the sup-T equation constrained optimization problems withan objective function being monotone in each variable separately.This method could be extended aswell to the case in which the triangular norm is non-Archimedean.

Development of an Explicit Symplectic Scheme that Optimizes the Dispersion-Relation Equation of the Maxwell’s Equations

In this paper an explicit finite-difference time-domain scheme for solving the Maxwell’s equations in non-staggered grids is presented.The proposed scheme for solving the Faraday’s and Amp`ere’s equations in a theoretical manner is aimed to preserve discrete zero-divergence for the electric and magnetic fields.The inherent local conservation laws in Maxwell’s equations are also preserved discretely all the time using the explicit second-order accurate symplectic partitioned Runge-Kutta scheme.The remaining spatial derivative terms in the semi-discretized Faraday’s and Amp`ere’s equations are then discretized to provide an accurate mathematical dispersion relation equation that governs the numerical angular frequency and the wavenumbers in two space dimensions.To achieve the goal of getting the best dispersive characteristics,we propose a fourth-order accurate space centered scheme which minimizes the difference between the exact and numerical dispersion relation equations.Through the computational exercises,the proposed dual-preserving solver is computationally demonstrated to be efficient for use to predict the long-term accurate Maxwell’s solutions.

SET COVERING-BASED TOPSIS METHOD FOR SLOVING SUP-T EQUATION CONSTRAINED MULTI-OBJECTIVE OPTIMIZATION PROBLEMS

This paper considers solving a multi-objective optimization problem with sup-T equation constraints A set covering-based technique for order of preference by similarity to the ideal solution is proposed for solving such a problem. It is shown that a compromise solution of the sup-T equation constrained multi-objective optimization problem can be obtained by ＂solving an associated set covering problem. A surrogate heuristic is then applied to solve the resulting optimization problem. Numerical experiments on solving randomly generated multi-objective optimization problems with sup-T equation constraints are included. Our computational results confirm the efficiency of the proposed method and show its potential for solving large scale sup-T equation constrained multi-objective optimization problems.

Solution of Spin and Pseudo-Spin Symmetric Dirac Equation in (1＋1) Space-Time Using Tridiagonal Representation Approach

The aim of this work is to find exact solutions of the Dirac equation in(1+1) space-time beyond the already known class.We consider exact spin(and pseudo-spin) symmetric Dirac equations where the scalar potential is equal to plus(and minus) the vector potential.We also include pseudo-scalar potentials in the interaction.The spinor wavefunction is written as a bounded sum in a complete set of square integrable basis,which is chosen such that the matrix representation of the Dirac wave operator is tridiagonal and symmetric.This makes the matrix wave equation a symmetric three-term recursion relation for the expansion coefficients of the wavefunction.We solve the recursion relation exactly in terms of orthogonal polynomials and obtain the state functions and corresponding relativistic energy spectrum and phase shift.
