Identification of hysteretic systems using the differential evolution algorithm
(2001)
A widely used model in the field of hysteretic or memory-dependent vibrations is that of Bouc and Wen. Different parameter values extend its use to various areas of mechanical vibrations. As a consequence an identification ...
Differential evolution based identification of automotive hydraulic engine mount model parameters
(2000)
Hydraulic engine mounts are commonly used in an automotive applications, and numerical models exist for performing full-vehicle noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) studies by means of multibody simulation. The parameters ...
Structural modification. Part 1: Rotational receptances
(2005)
The inverse problem of assigning natural frequencies and antiresonances by a modification to the stiffness, mass and damping of a structure is addressed. Very simple modifications such as the addition of masses and grounded ...

Technol. and Eng., University of Ottawa, 800 King Edward Ave., Ottawa, Ont. K1N 6N5, Canadaemail: frezaei@site.uottawa.ca, 2004)
This paper is concerned with fully observable nonlinear stochastically controlled diffusions, in which uncertainty is described by a relative entropy constraint between the nominal measure and the uncertain measure, while ...

Relations between information theory, robustness and statistical mechanics of stochastic uncertain systems via large deviation theory
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2006)
Robustness issues of stochastic uncertain controlled systems are intimately related to concepts from information theory and statistical mechanics. These relations are unveiled by using the theory of large deviations through ...
