Dynamical system approach to navigation around obstacles

In this article, we propose a dynamical system to avoid obstacles which are star shaped and simultaneously converge to a goal. The convergence is almost-global in a domain and the stationary points are identified explicitly. Our approach is based on the id ...

Quadratic serendipity element shape functions on general planar polygons

Xiaodong Wei, Juan Cao

This paper proposes a method for the construction of quadratic serendipity element (QSE) shape functions on planar convex and concave polygons. Existing approaches for constructing QSE shape functions are linear combinations of the pair-wise products of ge ...

Discrete-time regional pole-placement using convex approximations: Theory and application to a boost converter

Emilio Maddalena

The problem of allocating the closed-loop poles of linear systems in specific regions of the complex plane defined by discrete time-domain requirements is addressed. The resulting non-convex set is inner-approximated by a convex region described with linea ...

Grammar-based generation of trusses within non-convex domains

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Ioannis Mirtsopoulos

A force-driven generative grammar rule is proposed as a design exploration method for planar networks in static equilibrium within non-convex domains. The aim is to enrich the catalog of unconventional structural typologies. Empty or partial networks in eq ...

A Least-Squares/Relaxation Method for the Numerical Solution of the Three-Dimensional Elliptic Monge-Ampere Equation

Alexandre Caboussat, Dimitrios Gourzoulidis

In this article, we address the numerical solution of the Dirichlet problem for the three-dimensional elliptic Monge-Ampere equation using a least-squares/relaxation approach. The relaxation algorithm allows the decoupling of the differential operators fro ...

Mechanical analyses of the waveguide flange coupling for the first confinement system of the ITER electron cyclotron upper launcher

Timothy Goodman, René Chavan, Jean-Daniel Landis, Robert Bertizzolo

The four electron cyclotron (EC) upper port antennas (or "upper launchers" -UL) will be used to drive current locally inside magnetic islands located at the q= 2 (or smaller) rational surfaces in order to stabilize neoclassical tearing modes (NTMs), as wel ...

Waldhausen K-theory of spaces via comodules

Kathryn Hess Bellwald

Let X be a simplicial set. We construct a novel adjunction be- tween the categories RX of retractive spaces over X and ComodX+ of X+- comodules, then apply recent work on left-induced model category structures [5], [16] to establish the existence of a left ...

Harmonic symmetrization of convex sets and of Finsler structures, with applications to Hilbert geometry

Marc Troyanov

David Hilbert discovered in 1895 an important metric that is canonically associated to any convex domain

\Omega

in the Euclidean (or projective) space. This metric is known to be Finslerian, and the usual proof assumes a certain degree of smoothness of t ...

The Random Trip Model: Stability, Stationary Regime, and Perfect Simulation

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Milan Vojnovic

We define ``random trip", a generic mobility model for random, independent node motions, which contains as special cases: the random waypoint on convex or non convex domains, random walk on torus, billiards, city section, space graph, intercity and other m ...

Inclusions différentielles et problèmes variationnels

Ana Margarida Fernandes Ribeiro

In this thesis we deal with three different but connected questions. Firstly (cf. Chapter 2) we make a systematic study of the generalized notions of convexity for sets. We study the notions of polyconvex, quasiconvex and rank one convex set. We remark tha ...
