Game Theory as a Design Tool
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Game theory encompasses not only the familiar concept of scalar optimization, but the less known concepts of multicriteria optimization and multiple optimizers as well. This paper examines the ...
Optimal Direct Control Programs for a Prey-Predator System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Numerous biological systems involve species acting out the roles of prey and predators. In this paper, it is assumed that the prey feed upon resources of value to humans and that the predators ...
Positioning and Active Damping of Spring-Mass Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, we investigate an alternate approach to the design of controllers for positioning and damping of a system which can be reduced to an equivalent system of springs and masses. ...
