We investigate the number of the solutions for the biharmonic boundary value problem with a variable coefficient nonlinear term. We get a theorem which shows the existence of $m$ weak solutions for the biharmonic problem with variable coefficient. We obtain this result by using the critical point theory induced from the invariant function and invariant linear subspace.

We obtain multiplicity results for the nonlinear biharmonic problem with variable coefficient. We prove by the Leray-Schauder degree theory that the nonlinear biharmonic problem has multiple solutions for the biharmonic problem with the variable coefficient semilinear term under some conditions.

We investigate the number of solutions for the superlinear elliptic bifurcation problem with Dirichlet boundary condition. We get a theorem which shows the existence of at least $k$ weak solutions for the superlinear elliptic bifurcation problem with boundary value condition. We obtain this result by using the critical point theory induced from invariant linear subspace and the invariant functional.

A free boundary problem is derived from a singular limit system of a reaction diffusion equation whose reaction terms are bistable type. In this paper, we shall consider a free boundary problem with two layers satisfying the zero flux boundary condition and shall show that the Hopf bifurcation can not occur as a parameter varies.

We investigate the multiple solutions for a parabolic boundary value problem with jumping nonlinearity crossing no eigenvalues. We show the existence of the unique solution of the parabolic problem with Dirichlet boundary condition and periodic condition when jumping nonlinearity does not cross eigenvalues of the Laplace operator $-{\Delta}$. We prove this result by investigating the Lipschitz constant of the inverse compact operator of $D_t-{\Delta}$ and applying the contraction mapping principle.

The k-eigenvalue neutronics/thermal-hydraulics coupling calculation is a key issue for reactor design and analysis. Jacobian-free Newton-Krylov (JFNK) method, featured with super-linear convergence rate and high efficiency, has been attracting more and more attention to solve the multi-physics coupling problem. However, it may converge to the high-order eigenmode because of the multiple solutions nature of the k-eigenvalue form of multi-physics coupling issue. Based on our previous work, a modified JFNK with a line search method is proposed in this work, which can find the fundamental eigenmode together with thermal-hydraulics feedback in a wide range of initial values. In detail, the existing modified JFNK method is combined with the line search strategy, so that the intermediate iterative solution can avoid a sudden divergence and be adjusted into a convergence basin smoothly. Two simplified 2-D homogeneous reactor models, a PWR model, and an HTR model, are utilized to evaluate the performance of the newly proposed JFNK method. The results show that the performance of this proposed JFNK is more robust than the existing JFNK-based methods.

This paper presents a new short-term load forecasting system using data mining. Since the electric load has very different pattern according to the day, it definitely gives rise to the forecasting error if only one forecasting model is used. Thus, to resolve this problem, the fuzzy model-based classifier and predictor are proposed for the forecasting of the hourly electric load. The proposed classifier is the multi-input and multi-output fuzzy system of which the consequent part is composed of the Bayesian classifier. The proposed classifier attempts to categorize the input electric load into Monday, Tuesday$\sim$Friday, Saturday, and Sunday electric load, Then, we construct the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model-based predictor for each class. The parameter identification problem is converted into the generalized eigenvalue problem (GEVP) by formulating the linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, to show the feasibility of the proposed method, this paper provides the short-term load forecasting example.

Mathematical aspects of the electromagnetic surface-wave propagation are examined for the dielectric core consisting of multiple sub-layers, which are embedded in the gap between the two bounding cladding metals. For this purpose, the linear problem with a partial differential wave equation is formulated into a nonlinear eigenvalue problem. The resulting eigenvalue is found to exist only for a certain combination of the material densities and the number of the multiple sub-layers. The implications of several limiting cases are discussed in terms of electromagnetic characteristics.

In this paper a nonlinear matrix equation is considered which has the form $$P(X)=A_0X^m+A_1X^{m-1}+{\cdots}+A_{m-1}X+A_m=0$$ where X is an $n{\times}n$ unknown real matrix and $A_m$, $A_{m-1}$, ${\cdots}$, $A_0$ are $n{\times}n$ matrices with real elements. Newtons method is applied to find the skew-symmetric solvent of the matrix polynomial P(X). We also suggest an algorithm which converges the skew-symmetric solvent even if the Fr$\acute{e}$echet derivative of P(X) is singular.

Serpentine belt drive system offers the advantages of light weigh, low cost, quientness, and efficiency. Since these belts are typically longer than conventional belts, a tensioner component is added to maintain acceptable belt tension levels and make no slippage between pulleys and belts. This paper addresses the modeling and analysis of the automotive belt drive systems and also addresses the predicton of slippage on rotational modes. Vibration characteristics are determined from the eigenvalue problem governing the free response. Under certain engine operating conditions, the dynamic tension fluctuations may be sufficient to cause the belt to slip on particular accessory pulleys, It is found that this slippage can be reduced by adding the tensioner component from the analysis of belt tension and belt compression.
