This paper describes a new method of estimating the gradient of a function with perturbation and correlation. We impose a known periodic perturbation to the input variable and observe the output of the function in order to obtain much richer and more reliable information. By taking the correlation between the input perturbation and the resultant function outputs, we can determine the gradient of the function. The computation of the correlation does not require derivatives; therefore the gradient can be estimated reliably. Robust estimation of the gradient using perturbation/correlation, which is very effective when an analytical solution is not available, is described. To verify the effectiveness of perturbation/correlation based estimation, the results of gradient estimation are compared with the analytical solutions of an example function. The effects of amplitude of the perturbation and number of samplings in a period are investigated. A minimization of a function with the gradient estimation method is performed.

In this paper, we apply homotopy perturbation method (HPM) for solving ninth and tenth-order boundary value problems. The suggested algorithm is quite efficient and is practically well suited for use in these problems. The proposed iterative scheme finds the solution without any discretization, linearization or restrictive assumptions. Several examples are given to verify the reliability and efficiency of the method. The fact that the proposed homotopy perturbation method solves nonlinear problems without using Adomian's polynomials can be considered as a clear advantage of this technique over the decomposition method.

In this paper a nonlinear, bistable, single degree of freedom system is considered. It consists of a Duffing oscillator externally excited by a non-resonant, harmonic force. A customized perturbation scheme is proposed to achieve an approximate expression for periodic solutions. It is based on the evaluation of the quasi-steady (slow) solution, and then on a variable change followed by two perturbation steps which aim to capture the fast, decaying contribution of the response. The reconstructed solution, given by the sum of the slow and fast contributions, is in a good agreement with the one obtained by numerical integration.

Accurately determining the natural frequencies and mode shapes of a structural floor is an essential step to assess the floor's human-induced vibration serviceability. In the theoretical analysis, the prestressed concrete floor can be idealized as a multi-span continuous anisotropic plate. This paper presents a new analytical approach to determine the natural frequencies and mode shapes of a multi-span continuous orthotropic plate. The suggested approach is based on the combined modal and perturbation method, which differs from other approaches as it decomposes the admissible functions defining the mode shapes by considering the intermodal coupling. The implementation of this technique is simple, requiring no tedious mathematical calculations. The perturbation solution is validated with the numerical results.

Based on the elegant properties of the spectral norm and Thompson metric, we firstly give two perturbation estimates for the positive definite solution of the nonlinear matrix equation $$X-\sum^m_{i=1}A^{\ast}_iX^{\delta_i}A_i=Q(0<|{\delta}_i|<1)$$ which arises in an optimal interpolation problem.

In the present work the second-order perturbation solutions of the simple physical model for liquid pool spreading is obtained for the case of instantaneous spill. To generalize the solution governing equations are non-dimensionalized, and two dimensionless parameters, dimensionless evaporation rate and aspect ratio of the initial pool, are identified to control the governing equations. The dimensional governing equations have three parameters. The second-order solution improves fairly the first-order solution for the pool volume.

This short article compares different solution methods for a basic RBC model (Hansen, 1985). We solve and simulate the model using two main algorithms: the methods of perturbation and projection, respectively. One novelty is that we offer a type of the hybrid method: we compute easily a second-order approximation to decision rules and use that approximation as an initial guess for finding Chebyshev polynomials. We also find that the second-order perturbation method is most competitive in terms of accuracy for standard RBC model.

This paper targets to investigate the solution of fuzzy quadratic Riccati differential equations with various types of fuzzy environment using Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM). Fuzzy convex normalized sets are used for the fuzzy parameter and variables. Obtained results are depicted in term of plots to show the efficiency of the proposed method.

The purpose of this paper is to derive a perturbation theory of evolution systems of the hyperbolic second order hyperbolic equations. We give an example of a partial functional equation as an application of the preceding result in case of the mixed problems for hyperbolic equations of second order with unbounded principal operators.

The classical perturbation theory is extended to the weighted Kronecker product linear systems $W(A{\bigotimes}B)W\chi=h$. Upper bounds are derived for the normwise condition number.
