The variational principle for linear stability of three-dimensional, inhomogenious, compressible, moving magnetized plasma is suggested. The principle is ``softer'' (easier to be satisfied) than all previously known variational stability…
This paper presents a constraint-enforcing control framework for a class of discrete-time strict-feedback nonlinear systems. The objective is to guarantee closed-loop stability while ensuring forward invariance of a prescribed safe set…
This work proposes a novel method for scaling multi-timestep security-constrained optimal power flow in large power grids. The challenge arises from dealing with millions of variables and constraints, including binary variables and…
In order to maintain the security of power system at an appropriate level and at low cost, it is essential to accurately assess the steady-state stability limits and power flow feasibility boundaries, i.e., the power system marginal states…
Markov decision processes (MDPs) with large number of states are of high practical interest. However, conventional algorithms to solve MDP are computationally infeasible in this scenario. Approximate dynamic programming (ADP) methods tackle…
Non-convex, nonlinear gas network optimization models are used to determine the feasibility of flows on existing networks given constraints on network flows, gas mixing, and pressure loss along pipes. This work improves two existing gas…
Numerical schemes for wave-like systems with small dissipation are often inaccurate and unstable due to truncation errors and numerical roundoff errors. Hence, numerical simulations of wave-like systems lacking proper handling of these…
A series of third- and fifth-order hybrid compact least-squares central weighted essentially non-oscillatory schemes are proposed and applied to curvilinear structured grids for the finite volume method. In smooth regions, compact…
We propose a novel flexible-step model predictive control algorithm for unknown linear time-invariant discrete-time systems. The goal is to asymptotically stabilize the system without relying on a pre-collected dataset that describes its…
In this paper, we propose the parametrized maximum principle preserving (MPP) flux limiter, originally developed in [Z. Xu, Math. Comp., (2013), in press], to the semi- Lagrangian finite difference weighted essentially non-oscillatory…
The paper presents a new control algorithm for unstable linear systems with input delay. In comparison with known analogues, the control law has been designed, which is a modification of the Smith predictor, and is the simplest one to…
The Material Point Method (MPM) is widely used to analyse coupled (solid-water) problems under large deformations/displacements. However, if not addressed carefully, MPM u-p formulations for poro-mechanics can be affected by two major…
By integrating two powerful methods of density reduction and intrinsic dimensionality estimation, a new data-driven method, referred to as OLPP-MLE (orthogonal locality preserving projection-maximum likelihood estimation), is introduced for…
We consider the problem of adaptive stabilization for discrete-time, multi-dimensional linear systems with bounded control input constraints and unbounded stochastic disturbances, where the parameters of the true system are unknown. To…
This paper deals with the stabilization of a class of linear infinite-dimensional systems with unbounded control operators and subject to a boundary disturbance. We assume that there exists a linear feedback law that makes the origin of the…
A low diffusion version of the HLL-CPS scheme for resolving the shear layers and the flow features at low Mach numbers is presented here. The low diffusion HLL-CPS scheme is obtained by reconstructing the velocities at the cell interface…
Direct laser Interference Patterning (DLIP) with ultrashort laser pulses (ULP) represents a precise and fast technique to produce tailored periodic sub-micrometer structures on various materials. In this work, an experimental and…
We present a novel method for mixed-integer optimization problems with multivariate and Lipschitz continuous nonlinearities. In particular, we do not assume that the nonlinear constraints are explicitly given but that we can only evaluate…
It is a well known fact that finite time optimal controllers, such as MPC does not necessarily result in closed loop stable systems. Within the MPC community it is common practice to add a final state constraint and/or a final state penalty…
A novel adaptive technique for electromagnetic Particle In Cell (PIC) plasma simulations is presented here. Two main issues are identified in designing adaptive techniques for PIC simulation: first, the choice of the size of the particle…
