A general discretization method for input-driven nonlinear continuous time-delay systems is proposed, which can be applied to general order sampling hold assumptions. It is based on a combination of Taylor series expansion and the theories of sampling and hold. The mathematical structure of the new discretization scheme is introduced in detail. The performance of the proposed discretization procedure is evaluated by two degrees of systems. The results show that the proposed scheme is applicable to control systems.

A new discretization method for calculating a sampled-data representation of a nonlinear continuous-time system is proposed. The proposed method is based on the well-known Taylor series expansion and zero-order hold (ZOH) assumption. The mathematical structure of the new discretization method is analyzed. On the basis of this structure, a sampled-data representation of a nonlinear system with a time-delayed input is derived. This method is applied to obtain a sampled-data representation of a non-affine nonlinear system, with a constant input time delay. In particular, the effect of the time discretization method on key properties of nonlinear control systems, such as equilibrium properties and asymptotic stability, is examined. 'Hybrid' discretization schemes that result from a combination of the 'scaling and squaring' technique with the Taylor method are also proposed, especially under conditions of very low sampling rates. Practical issues associated with the selection of the method parameters to meet CPU time and accuracy requirements are examined as well. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated using a nonlinear system with a time-delayed non-affine input.

The Taylor expansion expresses a differentiable function and its coefficients provide good approximations for the given function and its derivatives. In this study, m-th order Taylor Polynomial is constructed and the coefficients are computed by the Moving Least Squares method. The coefficients are applied to the governing partial differential equation for solid problems including crack problems. The discrete system of difference equations are set up based on the concept of point collocation. The developed method effectively overcomes the shortcomings of the finite difference method which is dependent of the grid structure and has no approximation function, and the Galerkin-based meshfree method which involves time-consuming integration of weak form and differentiation of the shape function and cumbersome treatment of essential boundary.

The ability to linearize a nonlinear system by feedback and coordinate change reduces to finding an integrating factor for a one-form which is determined from the system dynamics. Utilizing Taylor series expansion of this one-form, we characterize approximate linearizabilitu. A constructive method is derived for approximate linearization up to order 2.

In this paper, we propose a new computationally efficient joint iterative multi-input multi-output (MIMO) detection scheme using a soft interference cancellation and minimum mean squared-error (SIC-MMSE) method. The critical computational burden of the SIC-MMSE scheme lies in the multiple inverse operations of the complex matrices. We find a new way which requires only a single matrix inversion by utilizing the Taylor series expansion of the matrix, and thus the computational complexity can be reduced. The computational complexity reduction increases as the number of antennas is increased. The simulation results show that our method produces almost the same performances as the conventional SIC-MMSE with reduced computational complexity.

This paper discusses design sensitivity analysis and its application to a structural dynamics modification. Eigenvalue derivatives are determined with respect to the element parameters, which include intrinsic property parameters such as Young's modulus, density of the material, diameter of a beam element, thickness of a plate element, and shape parameters. Derivatives of stiffness and mass matrices are directly calculated by derivatives of element matrices. The first and the second order derivatives of the eigenvalues are then mathematically derived from a dynamic equation of motion of FEM model. The calculation of the second order eigenvalue derivative requires the sensitivity of its corresponding eigenvector, which are developed by Nelson's direct approach. The modified eigenvalue of the structure is then evaluated by the Taylor series expansion with the first and the second derivatives of eigenvalue. Numerical examples for simple beam and plate are presented. First, eigenvalues of the structural system are numerically calculated. Second, the sensitivities of eigenvalues are then evaluated with respect to the element intrinsic parameters. The most effective parameter is determined by comparing sensitivities. Finally, we predict the modified eigenvalue by Taylor series expansion with the derivatives of eigenvalue for single parameter or multi parameters. The examples illustrate the effectiveness of the eigenvalue sensitivity analysis for the optimization of the structures.

최근 화석연료의 사용으로 인한 지구온난화 등 환경파괴가 점점 증가하는 추세이며 이로 인해 신재생에너지 중 하나인 수력발전이 주목받고 있다. 수력발전은 물의 위치에너지를 기계에너지로 이를 다시 전기에너지로 변환하는 친환경적인 방식으로 운영된다. 수력발전량은 우리나라 전체 발전량의 1.5% 정도로 적은 양의 발전량을 생산하지만 가동시간이 짧아 전력수요가 급변하는 상황에 대비 가능하기 때문에 수력발전은 필수적이다. 기후변화의 영향으로 연평균강수량은 증가하는 양상을 보이나 연 강수일수는 줄어드는 등 수자원의 불확실성이 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 미래 불확실한 수자원 공급에 대비할 수 있는 수자원의 효율적 활용에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 하천의 유량이 계절에 따라 변동 폭이 크다는 점을 고려하며 월별 발전량을 최대화하기 위해 선형계획법을 적용하는 모형을 구축하였다. 선형계획법은 목적함수와 제약조건식 모두 1차식으로 비선형항을 포함할 수 없으나 초기 해가 불필요하고 최적해가 보장된다는 장점을 가진다. 일부 목적함수나 제약조건식에 비선형항이 포함되어 있을 경우 Successive Linear Programming(SLP), Piecewise Linear Programming(PLP), Taylor Expansion 등의 방법을 이용하여 선형화할 수 있다. 본 연구에서 비선형 제약조건은 Taylor Expansion을 이용하여 선형화하였으며 한강수계 9개 댐의 월간 발전량을 최대화시키는 장기 운영 모형을 구축하였다. 개발 환경은 Linux-CentOS이며 사용프로그램은 통계 분석에 많이 활용되는 R programming이다. R programming은 패키지를 이용한 개발이 용이하고 Windows 뿐만 아니라 Linux, Mac, Unix 등의 운영체제에서도 호환 가능하다는 장점이 있다.

There exist two difficulties in the nonlinear wave-body problems. First is the abrupt behavior near the intersection point between the body and the free surface, and second is the far field treatment. In this paper, the far field treatment is considered. The main idea is the Taylor series expansion of free-surface geometry and the application of F.F.T. algorithm. The numerical step is as follows. The velocity potential is expressed by the Green's theorem. and the solution is obtained by iteration method. In the iteration stage, the expressions by the Green's theorem are transformed to the convolution forts with the expansion of free surface by the wave slope. Here F.F.T. is applied, so the computing time can be of O(Nlog N) where N is the number of unknowns. The numerical analysis is carried out and the results are compared with other results in linear floating body problem and nonlinear moving pressure patch problem, and good agreements are obtained. Finally nonlinear floating body radiation problem is carried out with computing time of O(Nlog N).

We consider using ranked set sampling methods to draw inference about the three well-known measures of overlap, namely Matusita's measure $\rho$, Morisita's measure $\lambda$ and Weitzman's measure $\Delta$. Two exponential populations with different means are considered. Due to the difficulties of calculating the precision or the bias of the resulting estimators of overlap measures, because there are no closed-form exact formulas for their variances and their exact sampling distributions, Monte Carlo evaluations are used. Confidence intervals for those measures are also constructed via the bootstrap method and Taylor series approximation.

A new discretization method for nonlinear system with time-delay is proposed. It is based on the well-known Taylor series expansion and the zero-order hold (ZOH) assumption. We know that a discretization of linear system can be obtained with the ZOH assumption and within the sampling interval. A similar line of thinking is available in nonlinear case. The mathematical structure of the new discretization method is explored and under the structure, the sampled-data representation of nonlinear system including time-delay is computed. Provided that the discrete form of the single input nonlinear system with time-delay is derived, this result is easily extended to nonlinear system with multi-input time-delay. For simplicity two inputs are considered in this study. It is enough to generalize that of multiple inputs. Finally, the time-discretization of non-affine nonlinear system with time-delay is investigated for apply all nonlinear system
