Sequential monitoring for change in scale

Ondřej Chochola (2008)

Kybernetika

We propose a sequential monitoring scheme for detecting a change in scale. We consider a stable historical period of length m . The goal is to propose a test with asymptotically small probability of false alarm and power 1 as the length of the historical period tends to infinity. The asymptotic distribution under the null hypothesis and consistency under the alternative hypothesis is derived. A small simulation study illustrates the finite sample performance of the monitoring scheme.

Set arithmetic and the enclosing problem in dynamics

Marian Mrozek, Piotr Zgliczyński (2000)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We study the enclosing problem for discrete and continuous dynamical systems in the context of computer assisted proofs. We review and compare the existing methods and emphasize the importance of developing a suitable set arithmetic for efficient algorithms solving the enclosing problem.

Several notes on the circumradius condition

Václav Kučera (2016)

Applications of Mathematics

Recently, the so-called circumradius condition (or estimate) was derived, which is a new estimate of the W 1 , p -error of linear Lagrange interpolation on triangles in terms of their circumradius. The published proofs of the estimate are rather technical and do not allow clear, simple insight into the results. In this paper, we give a simple direct proof of the p = case. This allows us to make several observations such as on the optimality of the circumradius estimate. Furthermore, we show how the case...

Several results on chordal bipartite graphs

Mihály Bakonyi, Aaron Bono (1997)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

The question of generalizing results involving chordal graphs to similar concepts for chordal bipartite graphs is addressed. First, it is found that the removal of a bisimplicial edge from a chordal bipartite graph produces a chordal bipartite graph. As consequence, occurance of arithmetic zeros will not terminate perfect Gaussian elimination on sparse matrices having associated a chordal bipartite graph. Next, a property concerning minimal edge separators is presented. Finally, it is shown that,...

Shape optimization by means of the penalty method with extrapolation

Ivan Hlaváček (1994)

Applications of Mathematics

A model shape optimal design in 2 is solved by means of the penalty method with extrapolation, which enables to obtain high order approximations of both the state function and the boundary flux, thus offering a reliable gradient for the sensitivity analysis. Convergence of the proposed method is proved for certain subsequences of approximate solutions.

Shape optimization of an elasto-perfectly plastic body

Ivan Hlaváček (1987)

Aplikace matematiky

Within the range of Prandtl-Reuss model of elasto-plasticity the following optimal design problem is solved. Given body forces and surface tractions, a part of the boundary, where the (two-dimensional) body is fixed, is to be found, so as to minimize an integral of the squared yield function. The state problem is formulated in terms of stresses by means of a time-dependent variational inequality. For approximate solutions piecewise linear approximations of the unknown boundary, piecewise constant...

Shape optimization of an elasto-plastic body for the model with strain- hardening

Vladislav Pištora (1990)

Aplikace matematiky

The state problem of elasto-plasticity (for the model with strain-hardening) is formulated in terms of stresses and hardening parameters by means of a time-dependent variational inequality. The optimal design problem is to find the shape of a part of the boundary such that a given cost functional is minimized. For the approximate solutions piecewise linear approximations of the unknown boundary, piecewise constant triangular elements for the stress and the hardening parameter, and backward differences...

Shape optimization of elastic axisymmetric bodies

Ivan Hlaváček (1989)

Aplikace matematiky

The shape of the meridian curve of an elastic body is optimized within a class of Lipschitz functions. Only axisymmetric mixed boundary value problems are considered. Four different cost functionals are used and approximate piecewise linear solutions defined on the basis of a finite element technique. Some convergence and existence results are derived by means of the theory of the appropriate weighted Sobolev spaces.

Shape optimization of elasto-plastic axisymmetric bodies

Ivan Hlaváček (1991)

Applications of Mathematics

A minimization of a cost functional with respect to a part of a boundary is considered for an elasto-plastic axisymmetric body obeying Hencky's law. The principle of Haar-Kármán and piecewise linear stress approximations are used to solve the state problem. A convergence result and the existence of an optimal boundary is proved.

Shape optimization of elasto-plastic bodies

Zuzana Dimitrovová (2001)

Applications of Mathematics

Existence of an optimal shape of a deformable body made from a physically nonlinear material obeying a specific nonlinear generalized Hooke’s law (in fact, the so called deformation theory of plasticity is invoked in this case) is proved. Approximation of the problem by finite elements is also discussed.

Shape optimization of elastoplastic bodies obeying Hencky's law

Ivan Hlaváček (1986)

Aplikace matematiky

A minimization of a cost functional with respect to a part of the boundary, where the body is fixed, is considered. The criterion is defined by an integral of a yield function. The principle of Haar-Kármán and piecewise constant stress approximations are used to solve the state problem. A convergence result and the existence of an optimal boundary is proved.
