LAX TENSORS, KILLING TENSORS AND GEOMETRIC DUALITY [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The solution of the Lax tensor equations in the case L-alpha beta gamma = -L-beta alpha gamma was analyzed. The Lax tensors on the dual metrics were investigated.

Semi‐active ℋ∞ damping optimization by adaptive interpolation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In this work we consider the problem of semi‐active damping optimization of mechanical systems with fixed damper positions. Our goal is to compute a damping that is locally optimal with respect to the ℋ∞‐norm of the transfer function from the exogenous ...

Karl Popper and the Mechanisms of Hydrogen Embrittlement

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Representation of the beginning of loss of ductility rather than embrittlement. Small concentrations of hydrogen in a diffusible form within iron are well‐established to harm the mechanical integrity of steels. There are theories that attempt to explain the pernicious role of hydrogen.

Smooth weight optimization in ℋ∞ loop-shaping design

open access: yes, 2010
Smooth variation in the magnitude response of weights facilitates ℋ∞ loop-shaping design, as it prevents the cancellation of important modes of the system, for example, lightly damped poles/zeros of flexible structures, when the shaped plant is formed ...

Understanding the Stochastic Nature of Process Parameter Development of Blown Powder Laser Beam Directed Energy Deposition Additive Manufacturing of Pure Molybdenum

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Identified through the use of statistical design of experiments and metallographic investigation, this study exposes the stochastic origins of intergranular cracks in blown powder laser beam directed energy deposition additive manufacturing of pure molybdenum. It further demonstrates a successful crack mitigation approach with direct correlation to the

ℋ-Matrix preconditioners in convection-dominated problems

open access: yes, 2006
Hierarchical matrices provide a data-sparse way to approximate fully populated matrices. In this paper we exploit ℋ-matrix techniques to approximate the LU-decompositions of stiffness matrices as they appear in (finite element or finite difference ...

Stable ℋ flow controller design using approximation of FIR filters

open access: yes, 2010
Stable flow controllers are usually preferred since, compared with unstable flow controllers, they are less sensitive to any modelling imperfections. ℋ∞-optimal flow controllers involve finite impulse–response (FIR) filters due to the time delays which ...

Microstructure‐Controlled Crack Propagation and Fracture Resistance in MoSiBTiC Alloy Revealed by Multiscale Extended Finite Element Method Modeling

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A two‐dimensional multiscale finite element analysis framework was established for the first‐generation MoSiBTiC alloy, and the mechanical and fracture‐related parameters of the constituent phases were calibrated through experiments and simulations. The framework provides a basis for analyzing crack propagation behavior in its complex microstructure ...

Adaptive geometrically balanced clustering of ℋ-matrices

open access: yes, 2004
In [8], a class of (data-sparse) hierarchical (ℋ-) matrices is introduced that can be used to efficiently assemble and store stiffness matrices arising in boundary element applications.

Selection of a single uniquely specifiable ℋ∞ controller in the chain-scattering framework

open access: yes, 2004
This paper studies the notion of central ℋ∞ controllers in the chain-scattering framework. Since in the chain-scattering framework the ℋ∞ control problem is equivalent to a factorisation problem that yields non-unique factors, it is important to somehow ...
