A set of quadratic forms is simultaneously diagonalizable via congruence (SDC) if there exists a basis under which each of the quadratic forms is diagonal. This property appears naturally when analyzing quadratically constrained quadratic…
Planes and circular cylinders are models of interfaces of a fluid when the support surface is translationally invariant in a direction of the space. After a study of the eigenvalues of the Jacobi operator, it is investigated when planar…
This work presents a robust Model Predictive Controller (MPC) to solve the problem of spacecraft rendezvous in the context of the restricted three-body problem (R3BP) as will be required to dock with space stations in cislunar space. The…
We study how state-of-the-art neural networks for 3D object detection using a single-stage pipeline can be made safety aware. We start with the safety specification (reflecting the capability of other components) that partitions the 3D…
We propose a Model Predictive Control (MPC) for collision avoidance between an autonomous agent and dynamic obstacles with uncertain predictions. The collision avoidance constraints are imposed by enforcing positive distance between convex…
We deal with accelerating the solution of a sequence of large linear systems solved by preconditioned conjugate gradient method (PCG). The sequence originates from time-stepping within a simulation of an unsteady incompressible flow. We…
A wide variety of intricate dynamics may be created at border-collision bifurcations of piecewise-smooth maps, where a fixed point collides with a surface at which the map is nonsmooth. For the border-collision normal form in two…
This paper develops a unified theory of natural superconvergence points for polynomial spline approximations to second-order elliptic problems. Beginning with the one-dimensional case, we establish that when a point $x_0$ is a local…
The Cramer-Castillon problem (CCP) consists in finding one or more polygons inscribed in a circle such that their sides pass cyclically through a list of $N$ points. We study this problem where the points are the vertices of a triangle and…
We study the equilibrium solutions of a sessile drop on top of a horizontal substrate when it is partially covered by another inmiscible liquid, so that part of the drop is in contact with a third fluid (typically, air). The shapes of the…
We describe combined experiments and simulations of droplet breakup during flow-driven interactions with a circular obstacle in a quasi-two-dimensional microfluidic chamber. Due to a lack of in-plane confinement, the droplets can also slip…
The Promise Constraint Satisfaction Problem (PCSP) is a recently introduced vast generalization of the Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP). We investigate the computational complexity of a class of PCSPs beyond the most studied cases -…
Orthogonal collocation methods are direct approaches for solving optimal control problems (OCP). A high solution accuracy is achieved with few optimization variables, making it more favorable for embedded and real-time NMPC applications.…
In modeling phase transitions, it is useful to be able to connect diffuse interface descriptions of the dynamics with corresponding limiting sharp interface motions. In the case of the deep quench obstacle problem (DQOP) and surface…
We study the surface diffusion flow acting on a class of general (non--axisymmetric) perturbations of cylinders $\mathcal{C}_r$ in ${\rm I \! R}^3$. Using tools from parabolic theory on uniformly regular manifolds, and maximal regularity,…
I study the two-dimensional defects of the $d$ dimensional critical $O(N)$ model and the defect RG flows between them. By combining the $\epsilon$-expansion around $d = 4$ and $d = 6$ as well as large $N$ techniques, I find new conformal…
The DC network security constraints have been extensively studied in numerous power system problems, such as optimal power flow (OPF), security-constrained economic dispatch (SCED), and security-constrained unit commitment (SCUC). Linear…
Multiparticle collision dynamics (MPCD) is a relatively new algorithm of fluid flow simulations that has been applied mostly to flows around simple objects. One might ask how it behaves in more complex flows. Therefore, we extend MPCD to…
We study the problem of guarding the boundary of a simple polygon with a minimum number of guards such that each guard covers a contiguous portion of the boundary. First, we present a simple greedy algorithm for this problem that returns a…
Particle-resolved direct numerical simulation (PR-DNS) is performed for turbulent open channel flow over a smooth horizontal wall with a vertical cylinder and a dilute set of mobile, heavy, spherical particles. At the chosen parameter point…
