Enhanced Control Strategies for Residual‐Vibration Suppression and Adaptive Tracking in Flexible Manipulator Under Unknown Bounded Disturbances

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper proposes a hybrid control strategy for flexible‐link manipulators that combines offline trajectory planning with adaptive tracking to suppress residual elastic vibration (REV) under unknown bounded disturbances. A rigid–flexible coupling dynamics model is first established using the floating‐frame method and Lagrange's equations ...

An Adaptive Multiple Shooting Strategy for Optimal Control

open access: yesOptimal Control Applications and Methods, EarlyView.
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.

A Novel Nonconvex Penalty Method for a Rank Constrained Matrix Optimization Problem and its Applications

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science
The rank constrained nonconvex nonsmooth matrix optimization problem is an important and challenging issue. To solve it, we first design a penalty model in which the penalty term can be expressed as a sum of specific functions defined on smallest ...

A Splitting Architecture for Exact Reduced Coulomb Friction

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Existing approaches to frictional contact dynamics typically either modify the Coulomb law to improve numerical robustness or solve the exact law in a fully coupled monolithic form. However, in its reduced form, exact Coulomb friction can be written as a cone complementarity problem with an augmented velocity, which reveals a natural split ...

Exact-Penalty Prox-Linear Methods for Bilevel Optimization with ℓ1 Lower-Level Gradient Penalty

open access: yesAxioms
Bilevel optimization is a fundamental framework for hierarchical decision-making, but its solution is challenging due to the implicit and typically set-valued nature of the lower-level optimality condition.

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 ...

Random Carbon Tax Policy and Investment Into Emission Abatement Technologies

open access: yesMathematical Finance, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 804-825, October 2026.
ABSTRACT We analyze the problem of a profit‐maximizing electricity producer, subject to carbon taxes, who decides on investments into CO2$\rm CO_2$ abatement technologies. We assume that the carbon tax policy is random and that the investment in the abatement technology is divisible, irreversible, and subject to transaction costs.
