Modified Linear Approximation for Assessment of Rigid Block Dynamics

This study proposes a new linear approximation for solving the dynamic response equations of a rocking rigid block. Linearization assumptions which have already been used by Hounser and other researchers cannot be valid for all rocking blocks with various slenderness ratios and dimensions; hence, developing new methods which can result in better approximation of governing equations while keepin...

Discrete-time controllability for feedback quantum dynamics

Controllability properties for discrete-time, Markovian quantum dynamics are investigated. We find that, while in general the controlled system is not finite-time controllable, feedback control allows for arbitrary asymptotic state-to-state transitions. Under further assumption on the form of the measurement, we show that finite-time controllability can be achieved in a time that scales linearl...

Dynamics for Discrete-Time Cellular Neural Networks

This presentation investigates the dynamics of discrete-time cellular neural networks (DT-CNN). In contrast to classical neural networks that are mostly gradient-like systems, DT-CNN possesses both complete stability and chaotic behaviors as different parameters are considered. An energylike function which decreases along orbits of DT-CNN as well as the existence of a globally attracting set ar...
