In this paper, we propose a switching control method for a class of 2nd order nonlinear systems with single input. The main idea is to switch the control law before the trajectory of the solution arrives at singular hyperplanes which are defined by the denominator of the control law. The proposed method can handle a class of nonlinear systems which is difficult to be stabilized by the existing methods such as feedback linearization, backstepping, control Lyapunov function, and sliding mode control.

A newly developed heuristic algorithm, Harmony Search, is applied to the parameter calibration problem of the nonlinear Muskingum model. The Harmony Search could, mimicking the improvisation of music player, find better parameter values for in the nonlinear Muskingum model than five other methods including another heuristic method, genetic algorithm, in the aspect of SSQ(the sum of the square of the deviations between the observed and routed outflows) as well as in the aspects of SAD(the sum of the absolute value of the deviations), DPO(deviations of peak of routed and actual flows) and DPOT(deviatios of peak time of routed and actual outflow). Harmony Search also has the advantage that it does not require the process of asuming the initial values of desing parameters. The sensitivity analysis of Harmony Memory Considering Rate showed that relatively large values of Harmony Memory Considering Rate makes the Harmony Search converge to a better solution.

This paper presents a spatial catenary cable element for the nonlinear analysis of cable-supported structures. An incremental-iterative solution based on the Newton-Raphson method is adopted for solving the equilibrium equation. As a result, the element stiffness matrix and nodal forces are determined, wherein the effect of self-weight and pretension are taken into account. In the case of the initial cable tension is given, an algorithm for form-finding of cable-supported structures is proposed to determine precisely the unstressed length of the cables. Several classical numerical examples are solved and compared with the other available numerical methods or experiment tests showing the accuracy and efficiency of the present elements.

Harmony Search also has the advantage that it does not require the process of assuming the initial values of design parameters. The sensitivity analysis of Harmony Memory Considering Rate showed that relatively large values of Harmony Memory Considering Rate makes the Harmony Search converse to a better solution.

The purpose of this paper is to present an operator method of regularization for the problem of finding a solution of a system of nonlinear ill-posed equations with a monotone hemicontinuous mapping and N inverse-strongly monotone mappings in Banach spaces. A regularization parameter choice is given and convergence rate of the regularized solutions is estimated. We also give the convergence and convergence rate for regularized solutions in connection with the finite-dimensional approximation. An iterative regularization method of zero order in a real Hilbert space and two examples of numerical expressions are also given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

We provide a local convergence analysis for Newton-like methods for the solution of generalized equations in a Banach space setting. Using some ideas of ours introduced in [2] for nonlinear equations we show that under weaker hypotheses and computational cost than in [7] a larger convergence radius and finer error bounds on the distances involved can be obtained.

The modified arc-length algorithms for the automatic incremental solution of nonlinear finite element equations proposed by Riks are presented, which comprise the cylindrical arc-length method and the normal arc-length method. These methods are developed to trace the nonlinear path of large displacement problems such as a pre and post bucking/collapse response of general structures. These methods are applied to analyse the nonlinear behavior of arch and shell problems in parallel with the standard and modified Newton-Raphson method.

In 1994 Z.Liang constructed an iterative method for the solution of nonlinear equations involving m-accretive operators in uniformly smooth Banach spaces. In this paper we apply the slight variants of Liang's iterative methods and generalize the results of Z.Liang. Moreover our proof is more simple than Liang's proof.

The problem of optimal shutdown control of nuclear reactor having nonlinear dynamics is considered. Since the problem, being a bounded state space problem, is difficult to solve by conventional analytic methods such as Pontryagin's maximum principle, it is approached directly by the quasilinearization technique, and solved numerically. The solution obtained in this manner proves to be an improvement over the previous results.

The present study is concerned with the arc-length method in the investigation of the large deflection behavior of spatial structures with composite materials. This study should be able to trace the main equilibrium path by automatically varying the arc-length size of individual solution steps with the variation of the curvature of the nonlinear equilibrium path. A quasi-elastic method is used for the solution for viscoelastic analysis of the reticulated spatial structures. Elastic modulus of composite materials is defined by micro mechanical materials modeling method and nonlinear equilibrium path is traced with various load types. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the present strategies, numerical examples of reticulated spatial truss is given and compared with solutions using other methods.
