Stochastic Galerkin and Monte Carlo Methods for Parabolic Problems: Numerical Performance of Variational Matrix‐Free Approximations

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Stochastic Galerkin methods offer unexplored potential for the numerical simulation of parabolic problems with random variables, in particular if they are combined with variational discretizations of the space and time variables. Due to the high dimensionality, the solution of the arising algebraic systems do not become feasible without ...

Nonsmooth analysis and optimization on partially ordered vector spaces

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1992
Interval-Lipschitz mappings between topological vector spaces are defined and compared with other Lipschitz-type operators. A theory of generalized gradients is presented when both spaces are locally convex and the range space is an order complete vector

On Switching Times Optimization and Second‐Order Sufficient Conditions for Optimal Bang‐Bang Boundary Control of the Heat Equation

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT We consider optimal control of the heat equation where the control variable appears linearly as a boundary control. We establish switching times optimization for bang–bang controls with multiple switching times. Particularly, representations of variational derivatives of the state and the cost w.r.t. switching times are given.

An Adaptive Multiple Shooting Strategy for Optimal Control

open access: yesOptimal Control Applications and Methods, Volume 47, Issue 6, Page 1453-1471, November/December 2026.
We study how multiple shooting affects the convergence of Newton‐type methods for optimal control, comparing several shooting strategies across 40 benchmark problems. The study covers interior‐point and sequential quadratic programming methods with both Quasi‐Newton approximations and exact Hessians.

Mission‐Aligned Learning‐Informed Control of Autonomous Systems: Formulation and Foundations

open access: yesExpert Systems, Volume 43, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Research, innovation and practical capital investment have been increasing rapidly toward the realization of autonomous physical agents. This includes industrial and service robots, unmanned aerial vehicles, embedded control devices, and a number of other realizations of cybernetic/mechatronic implementations of intelligent autonomous devices.

Nonsmooth modal analysis: from the discrete to the continuous settings

open access: yes, 2018
This chapter addresses the prediction of vibratory resonances in nonsmooth structural systems via Nonsmooth Modal Analysis. Nonsmoothness in the trajectories is induced by unilateral contact conditions in the governing (in)equations.

Analysis of λ-Hölder Stability of Economic Equilibria and Dynamical Systems with Nonsmooth Structures

open access: yesMathematics
This paper develops a mathematical approach to the analysis of the stability of economic equilibria in nonsmooth models. The λ-Hölder apparatus of subdifferentials is used, which extends the class of systems under study beyond traditional smooth ...

Minimization of nonsmooth integral functionals

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1992
In this paper we examine optimization problems involving multidimensional nonsmooth integral functionals defined on Sobolev spaces. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for optimality in convex, finite dimensional problems using techniques from ...

Variational–hemivariational system for contaminant convection–reaction–diffusion model of recovered fracturing fluid

open access: yesAdvances in Nonlinear Analysis
This work is devoted to study the convection–reaction–diffusion behavior of contaminant in the recovered fracturing fluid which flows in the wellbore from shale gas reservoir. First, we apply various constitutive laws for generalized non-Newtonian fluids,
