In this paper, an optimal control of quadratic performance index with nonlinear constrained is presented. The sine-cosine wavelet operational matrix of integration and product matrix are introduced and applied to reduce nonlinear differential equations to the nonlinear algebraic equations. Then, the Newton-Raphson method is used for solving these sets of algebraic equations. To present ability ...

We study the eigenvalues and eigenspaces of the quadratic matrix polynomial Mλ + sDλ + K as s → ∞, where M and K are symmetric positive definite and D is symmetric positive semi-definite. The work is motivated by its application to modal analysis of finite element models with strong linear damping. Our results yield a mathematical explanation of why too strong damping may lead to practically un...
