The topologies that characterize the interaction among the leaders and the followers are directed graphs. Necessary and sufficient criteria which guarantee the control objectives are established for both stationary leaders(regulation case) and dynamic leaders(dynamic tracking case) based protocols. The final states of all the followers are exclusively determined by the initial values of the leaders and the topology structures. In the regulation case, all the followers converge into the convex hull spanned by the leaders,while in the dynamic tracking case, not only the positions of the followers converge into the convex hull but also the velocities of the followers converge into the velocity convex hull of the leaders.Finally, all the theoretical results are illustrated by numerical simulations.展开更多

All poled polymer network films possess high second-order nonlinear optical coefficients (d(33)) Of 10(-7)similar to 10(-8) esu. The investigation of NLO temporal stability at room temperature and elevated temperature (120 degreesC) indicated that these films exhibit high d(33) stability because the orientation of the chromophores are locked in the phenoxysilicon organic/inorganic networks.展开更多

During thermal poling process the anhydride reacts with the epoxy group and the resulting crosslinked network structure will stabilize the second harmonic generation in the poled film. The second harmonic generation of the poled film shows a maximum with the variation of composition this is presumed to be due to the effects of the increasing of concentration, orientation order as well as orientation stability of chromophore groups during crosslinking.展开更多

The calculations have been carried out by incorporating a second order nonlinear wave model into an asymptotic method. This is a new approach for the calculation of the wave trough exceedance probabilities, and, as all of the calculations are performed in the probability domain, avoids the need for long time-domain simulations. The proposed asymptotic method has been applied to calculate the wave trough depth exceedance probabilities of a sea state with the surface elevation data measured at the coast of Yura in the Japan Sea. It is demonstrated that the proposed new method can offer better predictions than the theoretical Rayleigh wave trough depth distribution model. The calculated results by using the proposed new method have been further compared with those obtained by using the Arhan and Plaisted nonlinear distribution model and the Toffoli et al.’s wave trough depth distribution model, and its accuracy has been once again substantiated. The research findings obtained from this study demonstrate that the proposed asymptotic method can be readily utilized in the process of designing various kinds of ocean engineering structures.展开更多

This paper proposes a discretization method based on Taylor series and the SOH assumption for the nonlinear systems with the time delayed non-affine input. The mathematical structure of the proposed discretization method is explored. This proposed discretization method can provide a precise and finite dimensional discretization model for the nonlinear time-delayed non-affine system by keeping the truncation order of the Taylor series. The performance of the proposed discretization method is evaluated by doing the simulation using a nonlinear system with the time-delayed non-affine input.Different input signals, time-delay values and sampling periods are considered in the simulation to investigate the proposed method.The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method is practical and easy for time-delayed nonlinear non-affine systems.The comparison between SOH assumption with first-order hold(FOH) and zero-order hold(ZOH) assumptions is given to show the advantages of the proposed method.展开更多

The nonl...The equilibrium geometries and UV visible spectra of a series of donor C 60 molecules were obtained by means of the AM1 and INDO/CI method, on the basis of accurate geometric and electronic structures. The nonlinear second order optical polarizabilities were calculated using the method INDO/SDCI combined with the Sum Over States (SOS) expression. The calculated β ( λ =1 34 μm) values are 28 81, 48 56, 57 33, 66 99, 70 85, 85 84, and 142 14 (×10 -30 esu) for the molecules A, B, C, D, E, F and G, respectively. The frontier orbitals were plot for the representative molecules in order to exhibit the intramolecular charge transfer. The results indicate that introduction of thienylethylene can enhancethe NLO response and the dimethyl^aniline substituted di^thienyl^ethylene C 60 (molecule G) possesses the largest NLO second order optical polarizability. The large β values can be attributed to the charge transfer between the substituents and C 60 , as well as within the three dimensional conjugated sphere of C 60 .展开更多
