A Team Approach to Undergraduate Research in Biomathematics: Balance Control

J. Milton, A. Radunskaya, W. Ou, T. Ohira (2011)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

The question, how does an organism maintain balance? provides a unifying theme to introduce undergraduate students to the use of mathematics and modeling techniques in biological research. The availability of inexpensive high speed motion capture cameras makes it possible to collect the precise and reliable data that facilitates the development of relevant mathematical models. An in–house laboratory component ensures that students have the opportunity...

A topological version of the Ambrosetti-Prodi theorem

Bogdan Przeradzki (1996)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

The existence of at least two solutions for nonlinear equations close to semilinear equations at resonance is obtained by the degree theory methods. The same equations have no solutions if one slightly changes the right-hand side. The abstract result is applied to boundary value problems with specific nonlinearities.

A viability result for nonconvex semilinear functional differential inclusions

Vasile Lupulescu, Mihai Necula (2005)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

We establish some sufficient conditions in order that a given locally closed subset of a separable Banach space be a viable domain for a semilinear functional differential inclusion, using a tangency condition involving a semigroup generated by a linear operator.

About differential inequalities for nonlocal boundary value problems with impulsive delay equations

Alexander Domoshnitsky, Irina Volinsky (2015)

Mathematica Bohemica

We propose results about sign-constancy of Green's functions to impulsive nonlocal boundary value problems in a form of theorems about differential inequalities. One of the ideas of our approach is to construct Green's functions of boundary value problems for simple auxiliary differential equations with impulses. Careful analysis of these Green's functions allows us to get conclusions about the sign-constancy of Green's functions to given functional differential boundary value problems, using the...

Adaptive finite-time synchronization of cross-strict feedback hyperchaotic systems with parameter uncertainties

Hai-Yan Li, Yun-An Hu, Rui-Qi Wang (2013)

Kybernetika

This paper is concerned with the finite-time synchronization problem for a class of cross-strict feedback underactuated hyperchaotic systems. Using finite-time control and backstepping control approaches, a new robust adaptive synchronization scheme is proposed to make the synchronization errors of the systems with parameter uncertainties zero in a finite time. Appropriate adaptive laws are derived to deal with the unknown parameters of the systems. The proposed method can be applied to a variety...
