The Relation between the Stabilization Problem for Discrete Event Systems Modeled with Timed Petri Nets via Lyapunov Methods and Max-Plus Algebra

A discrete event system is a dynamical system whose state evolves in time by the occurrence of events at possibly irregular time intervals. Timed Petri nets are a graphical and mathematical modeling tool applicable to discrete event systems in order to represent its states evolution where the timing at which the state changes is taken into consideration. One of the most important performance issues to be considered in a discrete event system is its stability. Lyapunov theory provides the required tools needed to aboard the stability and stabilization problems for discrete event systems modeled with timed Petri nets whose mathematical model is given in terms of difference equations. By proving stability one guarantees a bound on the discrete event systems state dynamics. When the system is unstable, a sufficient condition to stabilize the system is given. It is shown that it is possible to restrict the discrete event systems state space in such a way that boundedness is achieved. However, the restriction is not numerically precisely known. This inconvenience is overcome by considering a specific recurrence equation, in the max-plus algebra, which is assigned to the timed Petri net graphical model.

Nonlinear Algebraic Equations Solved by an Optimal Splitting-Linearizing Iterative Method

How to accelerate the convergence speed and avoid computing the inversion of a Jacobian matrix is important in the solution of nonlinear algebraic equations(NAEs).This paper develops an approach with a splitting-linearizing technique based on the nonlinear term to reduce the effect of the nonlinear terms.We decompose the nonlinear terms in the NAEs through a splitting parameter and then linearize the NAEs around the values at the previous step to a linear system.Through the maximal orthogonal projection concept,to minimize a merit function within a selected interval of splitting parameters,the optimal parameters can be quickly determined.In each step,a linear system is solved by the Gaussian elimination method,and the whole iteration procedure is convergent very fast.Several numerical tests show the high performance of the optimal split-linearization iterative method(OSLIM).

Stochastic stabilization of Markovian jump cloud control systems based on max-plus algebra

In this paper, stochastic stabilization is investigated by max-plus algebra for a Markovian jump cloud control system with a reference signal. For the Markovian jump cloud control system, there exists framework adjustment whose evolution is satisfied with a Markov chain. Using max-plus algebra, a maxplus stochastic system is used to describe the Markovian jump cloud control system. A causal feedback matrix is obtained by exponential stability analysis for a causal feedback controller of the Markovian jump cloud control system. A sufficient condition is given to ensure existence on the causal feedback matrix of the causal feedback controller. Based on the causal feedback controller, stochastic stabilization in probability is analyzed for the Markovian jump cloud control system with a reference signal.Simulation results are given to show effectiveness of the causal feedback controller for the Markovian jump cloud control system.

Algebraic Method‑Based Point‑to‑Point Trajectory Planning of an Under‑Constrained Cable‑Suspended Parallel Robot with Variable Angle and Height Cable Mast

To avoid impacts and vibrations during the processes of acceleration and deceleration while possessing flexible working ways for cable-suspended parallel robots(CSPRs),point-to-point trajectory planning demands an under-constrained cable-suspended parallel robot(UCPR)with variable angle and height cable mast as described in this paper.The end-effector of the UCPR with three cables can achieve three translational degrees of freedom(DOFs).The inverse kinematic and dynamic modeling of the UCPR considering the angle and height of cable mast are completed.The motion trajectory of the end-effector comprising six segments is given.The connection points of the trajectory segments(except for point P3 in the X direction)are devised to have zero instantaneous velocities,which ensure that the acceleration has continuity and the planned acceleration curve achieves smooth transition.The trajectory is respectively planned using three algebraic methods,including fifth degree polynomial,cycloid trajectory,and double-S velocity curve.The results indicate that the trajectory planned by fifth degree polynomial method is much closer to the given trajectory of the end-effector.Numerical simulation and experiments are accomplished for the given trajectory based on fifth degree polynomial planning.At the points where the velocity suddenly changes,the length and tension variation curves of the planned and unplanned three cables are compared and analyzed.The OptiTrack motion capture system is adopted to track the end-effector of the UCPR during the experiment.The effectiveness and feasibility of fifth degree polynomial planning are validated.

Application of material-mesh algebraic collapsing acceleration technique in method of characteristics——based neutron transport code

The algebraic collapsing acceleration(ACA)technique maximizes the use of geometric flexibility of the method of characteristics(MOC).The spatial grids for loworder ACA are the same as the high-order transport,which makes the numerical solution of ACA equations costly,especially for large-size problems.To speed-up the MOC transport iterations effectively for general geometry,a coarse-mesh ACA method that involves selectively merging fine-mesh cells with identical materials,called material-mesh ACA(MMACA),is presented.The energy group batching(EGB)strategy in the tracing process is proposed to increase the parallel efficiency for microscopic crosssection problems.Microscopic and macroscopic crosssection benchmark problems are used to validate and analyse the accuracy and efficiency of the MMACA method.The maximum errors in the multiplication factor and pin power distributions are from the VERA-4 B-2 D case with silver-indium-cadmium(AIC)control rods inserted and are 104 pcm and 1.97%,respectively.Compared with the single-thread ACA solution,the maximum speed-up ratio reached 25 on 12 CPU cores for microscopic cross-section VERA-4-2 D problem.For the C5 G7-2 D and LRA-2 D benchmarks,the MMACA method can reduce the computation time by approximately one half.The present work proposes the MMACA method and demonstrates its ability to effectively accelerate MOC transport iterations.

In this study,the potential Kadomtsev-Petviashvili(pKP)equation,which describes the oblique interaction of surface waves in shallow waters,is solved by the new extended direct algebraic method.The results of the study show that by applying the new direct algebraic method to the pKP equation,the behavior of the obliquely interacting surface waves in two dimensions can be analyzed.This article fairly clarifies the behaviors of surface waves in shallow waters.In the literature,several mathematical models have been developed in attempt to study these behaviors,with nonlinear mathematics being one of the most important steps;however,the investigations are still at a level that can be called‘baby steps’.Therefore,every study to be carried out in this context is of great importance.Thus,this study will serve as a reference to guide scientists working in this field.
