Nonsmooth Analysis

open access: yes, 1984
This survey of nonsmooth analysis sets out to prove an inverse function theorem for set-valued maps. The inverse function theorem for the more usual smooth maps plays a very important role in the solution of many problems in pure and applied analysis, and we can expect such an adaptation of this theorem also to be of great value. For example, it can be

Drag Reduction and Performance Improvement of Hydraulic Torque Converters with Multiple Biological Characteristics

open access: yesApplied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2016
Fish-like, dolphin-like, and bionic nonsmooth surfaces were employed in a hydraulic torque converter to achieve drag reduction and performance improvement, which were aimed at reducing profile loss, impacting loss and friction loss, respectively. YJSW335,

An introduction to non-smooth convex analysis via multiplicative derivative

open access: yesJournal of Taibah University for Science, 2019
In this study, *-directional derivative and *-subgradient are defined using the multiplicative derivative, making a new contribution to non-Newtonian calculus for use in non-smooth analysis.

Introduction to Nonsmooth Analysis and Optimization

open access: yes, 2020
Functions that are not differentiable in the classical sense have become a central tool in modern mathematical models for imaging, inverse problems, machine learning, and optimal control of differential equations. These models are increasingly formulated in infinite-dimensional function spaces to be independent of problem size and discretization ...

Adaptive Synchronization of Complex Dynamical Networks Governed by Local Lipschitz Nonlinearlity on Switching Topology

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2013
This paper investigates the adaptive synchronization of complex dynamical networks satisfying the local Lipschitz condition with switching topology. Based on differential inclusion and nonsmooth analysis, it is proved that all nodes can converge to the ...

Nonsmooth Analysis and Optimization

open access: yes, 2017
These lecture notes for a graduate course cover generalized derivative concepts useful in deriving necessary optimality conditions and numerical algorithms for nondifferentiable optimization problems in inverse problems, imaging, and PDE-constrained optimization. Treated are convex functions and subdifferentials, Fenchel duality, monotone operators and
