Comparison of a nonlinear adaptive controller with certainty-equivalence type adaptive controllers
(IEEE, 1995)Recently a new class of adaptive controllers for linear time invariant minimum phase plants has been proposed and analyzed. The design of these controllers is based on nonlinear tools and appears to be different from that ...

Matrix decomposition algorithms for modified spline collocation for Helmholtz problems
(2003)We consider the solution of various boundary value problems for the Helmholtz equation in the unit square using a nodal cubic spline collocation method and modifications of it which produce optimal (fourth-) order ...

On the stability of the simple shear flow of a Johnson-Segalman fluid
(1998)We solve the time-dependent simple shear flow of a Johnson-Segalman fluid with added Newtonian viscosity. We focus on the case where the steady-state shear stress/shear rate curve is not monotonic. We show that, in addition ...

Piecewise linear emulation of propagating fronts as a method for determining their speeds
(2003)The selected speed of pushed fronts was found through analytic calculations. The resulting analytic solution constitutes an excellent approximation to the exact propagating front, yielding also the correct value for the ...
