Higher-order approximate solutions of fractional stochastic point kinetics equations in nuclear reactor dynamics

Stochastic point kinetics equations(SPKEs) are a system of Ito? stochastic differential equations whose solution has been obtained by higher-order approximation.In this study, a fractional model of SPKEs has been analyzed. The efficiency of the proposed higher-order approximation scheme has been discussed in the results section. The solutions of SPKEs in the presence of Newtonian temperature feedback have also been provided to further discuss the physical behavior of the fractional model.

SINGULAR PERTURBATIONS OF A HIGHER-ORDER SCALAR NONLINEAR BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEM

In the present paper, the singular perturbations for the higher-order scalar nonlinear boundary value problem epsilon(2)y(n)=f(t,epsilon y,y',...,y((n-2)),epsilon y((n-1)), t is an element of[0,1] H1(y(0,epsilon),...,y((n-3))(0,epsilon),epsilon y((n-2))(0,epsilon),epsilon y((n-1))(0,epsilon),epsilon)=0, H2(y(0,epsilon),y((n-1))(0,epsilon),y(1,epsilon)...,y((n-1))(1,epsilon),epsilon=0 are studied, where epsilon > 0 is a small parameter, n greater than or equal to 2. Under some mild assumptions, we prove the existence and local uniqueness of the perturbed solution and give out the uniformly valid asymptotic expansions up to its nth-order derivative function by employing the Banach/Picard fixed-point theorem. Then the existing results are extended and improved.

TWO POSITIVE SOLUTIONS TO THREE-POINT SINGULAR BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEMS

In this article, we consider the existence of two positive solutions to nonlinear second order three-point singular boundary value problem： -u′′（t） = λf（t, u（t）） for all t ∈ （0, 1） subjecting to u（0） = 0 and αu（η） = u（1）, where η ∈ （0, 1）, α ∈ [0, 1）, and λ is a positive parameter. The nonlinear term f（t, u） is nonnegative, and may be singular at t = 0, t = 1, and u = 0. By the fixed point index theory and approximation method, we establish that there exists λ＊ ∈ （0, ＋∞], such that the above problem has at least two positive solutions for any λ ∈ （0, λ＊） under certain conditions on the nonlinear term f.

Fingerprint singular points extraction based on orientation tensor field and Laurent series

Singular point(SP)extraction is a key component in automatic fingerprint identification system(AFIS).A new method was proposed for fingerprint singular points extraction,based on orientation tensor field and Laurent series.First,fingerprint orientation flow field was obtained,using the gradient of fingerprint image.With these gradients,fingerprint orientation tensor field was calculated.Then,candidate SPs were detected by the cross-correlation energy in multi-scale Gaussian space.The energy was calculated between fingerprint orientation tensor field and Laurent polynomial model.As a global descriptor,the Laurent polynomial coefficients were allowed for rotational invariance.Furthermore,a support vector machine(SVM)classifier was trained to remove spurious SPs,using cross-correlation coefficient as a feature vector.Finally,experiments were performed on Singular Point Detection Competition 2010(SPD2010)database.Compared to the winner algorithm of SPD2010 which has best accuracy of 31.90%,the accuracy of proposed algorithm is 45.34%.The results show that the proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art detection algorithms by large margin,and the detection is invariant to rotational transformations.

BIFURCATION OF SINGULAR POINTS NEAR A DOUBLE FOLD POINT INZ_2 -SYMMETRIC NONLINEAR EQUATIONS

We consider the bifurcation of singular points near a double fold point in Z2 -symmetric nonlinear equations with two parameters,where the linearization has a two dimensional null space spanned by a symmetric null vector and an ami-symmetric null vector. In particular, we show the existence of a turning point path and a pitchfork point path passing ihrough the double fold point and they are the only singular points nearby. Their nondegeneracy is confirmed. A supporting numerical example is also provided. The main tools for our analysis as well as the compulation are some extended systems.

Under some certain assumptions, the physical model of the air combustion system was simplified to a laminar flame system. The mathematical model of the laminar flame system, which was built according to thermodynamics theory and the corresponding conservative laws, was studied. With the aid of qualitative theory and method of ordinary differential equations, the location of singular points on the Rayleigh curves is determined, the qualitative structure and the stability of the singular points of the laminar flame system, which are located in the areas of deflagration and detonation, are given for different parameter values and uses of combustion. The phase portraits of the laminar flame system in the reaction-stagnation enthalpy and combustion velocity-stagnation enthalpy planes are shown in the corresponding figures.

Computing Numerical Singular Points of Plane Algebraic Curves

Given an irreducible plane algebraic curve of degree d 〉 3, we compute its numerical singular points, determine their multiplicities, and count the number of distinct tangents at each to decide whether the singular points are ordinary. The numerical procedures rely on computing numerical solutions of polynomial systems by homotopy continuation method and a reliable method that calculates multiple roots of the univariate polynomials accurately using standard machine precision. It is completely different from the traditional symbolic computation and provides singular points and their related properties of some plane algebraic curves that the symbolic software Maple cannot work out. Without using multiprecision arithmetic, extensive numerical experiments show that our numerical procedures are accurate, efficient and robust, even if the coefficients of plane algebraic curves are inexact.

Regular-Singular Crossings on Nonlinear Systems with Turning Point

We consider in this paper the boundary value problems of nonlinear systems the form εY″=F(t,Y,Y′,ε), -1<t<1, Y(-1,ε)=A(ε), Y(1,ε)=B(ε). Supoosing some or all of the components of F , that is, f i satisfy 2 f y′ 2 i t =0 =0, we say that F possesses a generalized turning point at t =0. Our goal is to give sufficient conditions for the existence of solution of the problems and to study the asymptotic behavior of the solution when F possesses a generalized turning point at t =0. We mainly discuss regular singular crossings.

Complete solutions for elastic fields induced by point load vector in functionally graded material model with transverse isotropy

The paper develops and examines the complete solutions for the elastic field induced by the point load vector in a general functionally graded material(FGM)model with transverse isotropy.The FGMs are approximated with n-layered materials.Each of the n-layered materials is homogeneous and transversely isotropic.The complete solutions of the displacement and stress fields are explicitly expressed in the forms of fifteen classical Hankel transform integrals with ten kernel functions.The ten kernel functions are explicitly expressed in the forms of backward transfer matrices and have clear mathematical properties.The singular terms of the complete solutions are analytically isolated and expressed in exact closed forms in terms of elementary harmonic functions.Numerical results show that the computation of the complete solutions can be achieved with high accuracy and efficiency.

Learning Dynamics of the Complex-Valued Neural Network in the Neighborhood of Singular Points

In this paper, the singularity and its effect on learning dynamics in the complex-valued neural network are elucidated. It has learned that the linear combination structure in the updating rule of the complex-valued neural network increases the speed of moving away from the singular points, and the complex-valued neural network cannot be easily influenced by the singular points, whereas the learning of the usual real-valued neural network can be attracted in the neighborhood of singular points, which causes a standstill in learning. Simulation results on the learning dynamics of the three-layered real-valued and complex-valued neural networks in the neighborhood of singularities support the analytical results.
