Random dynamic matrix method

In Example 2.12, the method of random balance, factors have been selected by the effects of their significance on dynamic viscosity of uncured composite rocket propellant. The screened-out factors are X3 mixing speed X5 time after addition of AP and Xg vacuum in vertical planetary mixer. Since insufficient vacuum in a mixer causes bubbles to appear in the cured propellant, the value of this factor is fixed at the most convenient one. For the other two factors a design of basic experiment has been done according to a FUFE matrix, as shown in Table 2.103, and aimed at obtaining the mathematical model of viscosity change. 

Dielectric elements that are based on nanostructures are of recent interest for the scaling-down of DRAMs (dynamic random access memories) [11.2]. The need to reduce capacitance requires materials with larger dielectric permittivity. One method to achieve this is to disperse conductive particles in a dielectric matrix by using nanoparticles, the dissipation factor is kept low. 

In the finite grid point method [87, 88], the Markov operator is represented by a matrix W( l, ft) whose elements give the transition rates between discrete sites of ft. The values of the transition rates depend upon the model used to describe the motion. For the intramolecular dynamics such as tram-gauche isoTnenz tion or ring flips (see Fig. 4) a random jump process is assumed. Consequently [90]... 

In the case of flexible robots, several identification schemes have been studied. Some on-line identification schemes are based on input-output ARMA representations [15, 16, 17]. Another approach consists in elaborating a minimal identification model based on a knowledge model of the robot and in applying a least-squares method. There are two kinds of minimal identification model the first consists in applying the theorem of energy for the robot, the second comes from the dynamic model. More details on these two models applied in the case of one or two link-planar robots can be found in [18] and [19]. A set of standard parameters has been proposed. Its minimality has been demonstrated using a numerical rank analysis of the observation matrix which is constructed with a random sequence of points. 

The dynamic stiffness matrices and shape functions used in SEM are exact within the scope of the underlying physical theory, and the method allows a reduced number of degrees of freedom. The matrices are depended on frequency, but using spectral analysis, the dynamic response can be easily composed by wave superposition. Harmonic, random, or damped transient excitations can be decomposed using the discrete Fourier transform (DFT). The discrete frequencies are used to calculate the spectral matrix and discrete responses. Then, the complete dynamic response is computed by the sum of frequency components (inverse DFT). As FEM, SEM uses the assembly of a global matrix using elementary matrices and spatial discretization. However, differently from FEM, only discontinuities and locations where loads are applied need to be meshed (Ahmida and Arruda 2001).
