Optimal Control of Neutral Functional-Differential Inclusions Linear in Velocities
This paper studies optimal control problems for dynamical systems governed by neutral functional-differential inclusions that linearly depend on delayed velocity variables.

Primal SPH Solver for Strongly Coupled Multiphase Simulations with High Density Ratios
Abstract In recent years, the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) approach has been increasingly used for multiphase simulations involving interactions between diverse materials. A critical component of an SPH simulator is the pressure solver, which not only facilitates the simulation of compressible or incompressible fluids but also handles contact ...

Monetary Policy When Preferences Are Quasi‐Hyperbolic
Abstract We study discretionary monetary policy in an economy where economic agents have quasi‐hyperbolic discounting. We demonstrate that a benevolent central bank is able to keep inflation under control for a wide range of discount factors. If the central bank, however, does not adopt the household's time preferences and tries to discourage early ...

Policy Biases in a Model with Labor‐Market Frictions
Abstract We develop a model with labor‐market matching frictions that is subject to a range of shocks, including shocks to matching efficiency and bargaining power, and use the model to examine how monetary policy should respond to such shocks. We show that optimal monetary policy responds effectively to these shocks, producing economic outcomes that ...

ABSTRACT Rate‐independent single crystal plasticity requires robust solution methods due to the non‐uniqueness of slip system activity. The interior point method, which enforces the yield criterion via slack variables and a so‐called barrier term, has proven both robust and computationally efficient for this class of problems and has been applied to ...

Optimal control of nonsmooth system governed by quasi-linear elliptic equations
In this paper, we discuss a class of optimal control problems of nonsmooth systems governed by quasi-linear elliptic partial differential equations, give the existence of the problem.

The Long Shadow of Karl Weierstraß Over the Calculus of Variations
ABSTRACT At first glance, it appears that the contents of Karl Weierstraß's (1815–1897) lecture courses on the calculus of variations were made available to the public only in the seventh volume of his Mathematische Werke, and thus not until 30 years after his death.

Accurate and Efficient Data‐Driven Partitioned Scheme for Coupled Heterogeneous Numerical Models
ABSTRACT Heterogeneous numerical models (HNMs) combine conventional discretization modules such as finite elements with nonconventional data‐driven and reduced‐order modules. HNMs can improve computational efficiency and enable simulations of multi‐physics systems in which one or more constituent components lack first‐principles descriptions and must ...

Model Predictive Control of Gas Networks Based on Port‐Hamiltonian Formulations
ABSTRACT To efficiently compute optimal compressor actions in gas networks, we investigate port‐Hamiltonian models consisting of linear and a nonlinear model assumptions. The control actions are derived via adjoint‐based gradients that incorporate the constraints of the underlying optimization problem. We then present results from the implementation of

ABSTRACT Fluid‐filled phase‐field fracture simulations require robust, scalable solvers that can handle strongly nonlinear, non‐smooth mechanics and tightly coupled flow on locally refined meshes. In this work, we develop an adaptive finite element framework for quasi‐static, fluid‐filled phase‐field fractures that combines semi‐smooth Newton methods ...
