A methodology for the numerical computation of normal forms, centre manifolds and first integrals of Hamiltonian systems.
In [C.W. Gear, T.J. Kaper, I.G. Kevrekidis and A. Zagaris, SIAM J. Appl. Dyn. Syst. 4 (2005) 711–732], we developed a class of iterative algorithms within the context of equation-free methods to approximate low-dimensional, attracting, slow manifolds in systems of differential equations with multiple time scales. For user-specified values of a finite number of the observables, the mth member of the class of algorithms () finds iteratively an approximation of the appropriate zero of the (m+1)st...
This paper presents a computational procedure for the design of an observer of a nonlinear system. Outputs can be delayed, however, this delay must be known and constant. The characteristic feature of the design procedure is computation of a solution of a partial differential equation. This equation is solved using the finite element method. Conditions under which existence of a solution is guaranteed are derived. These are formulated by means of theory of partial differential equations in -space....
