This paper is concerned with a new prediction methodology for longitudinally invariant soil-structure interaction problems in elastodynamics. The method uses the finite-element method to model the structure, the boundary-element ...

The Kinetic Energy Preserving Scheme (KEP) for compressible flows has been shown to solve 1-D shock waves without smearing them. The method does not add numerical diffusion to solutions but, as a counterpart, it needs ...

An attempt to use phylogenetic invariants for tree reconstruction was made at the end of the 80s and the beginning of the 90s by several authors (the initial idea due to Lake [Lake, 1987] and Cavender and Felsenstein [Cavender ...

This paper may be ultimately described as an attempt to make feasible the evolutionary emergence of novelty in a supposedly deterministic world whose behavior is associated with that of the mathematical dynamical systems. ...

If an oscillator is driven by a force that switches between two frequencies, the dynamics it exhibits depends on the precise manner of switching. Here we take a one-dimensional oscillator and consider scenarios in which ...

In recent years there has been growing interest in the descriptive analysis of l -order time invariant linear dynamical system x l = A l system x l = A l where A i are square complex matrices and x i denotes the i-th ...

[ANGLÈS] The overall trend of the wind energy industry to the off shore sector requires the study of new technologies for exploiting these renewable energy sources. The installation of wind farms in deeper water to improve ...

En el presente documento se diseña un sistema de transformación de la energía cinética que se produce durante una sesión de spinning en energía eléctrica, proporcionando así una alternativa respetuosa con el medio ambiente ...

In this work we describe the bifurcation scenario found in a general first order system when a relay based proportional control is considered. We show the existence of a big bang bifurcation causing the existence of an ...
