Abstract: A dispersive model is developed for wave propagation in periodic heterogeneous media. The model is based on the higher order mathematical homogenization theory with multiple spatial and temporal ...

Abstract: A nonlinear state space representation of a nonlinear system implies that the system has a unique solution for a given set of initial conditions and system controls. But not all nonlinear ...

Abstract: This paper presents a control theory, for a large class of nonlinear systems, including analog, digital, and hybrid systems. The control theory is developed from a new system model that can ...

Abstract: A model has been developed for the prediction of wrinkling during the compression molding process for composites with thick cross sections. The onset of wrinkling is modeled as a localized bifurcation model, which produces ...
