Damped Iterative Explicit Guidance for Multistage Rockets with Thrust Drop Faults by Zongzhan Ma, Chuankui Wang, Zhi Xu, Shuo Tang, Ying Ma

“…Based on the iterative guidance mode (IGM) and powered explicit guidance (PEG), this method is enhanced in three aspects: (1) an accurate transversality condition is derived and applied in the dimension-reduction framework instead of using a simplified assumption; (2) the Gauss–Legendre quadrature formula (GLQF) is adopted to increase the accuracy of the method by addressing the issue of excessive errors in calculating thrust integration using linearization methods based on a small quantity assumption under fault conditions; and (3) a damping factor for solving the time-to-go is introduced to avoid the chattering phenomenon and enhance convergence. …”

Elements of mathematical phenomenology and analogies of electrical and mechanical oscillators of the fractional type with finite number of degrees of freedom of oscillations: linea... by Katica R. (Stevanović) Hedrih, Gradimir V. Milovanović

“…By applying the Laplace transformation and the power series expansions, we determine and graphically present the approximate analytical solutions for eigen oscillations of the fractional type, as well as for forced oscillations, using a convolution integral. Tables with elements of mathematical phenomenology and analogies of oscillatory mechanical and electrical systems of fractional type are shown, as well as the principal fractional-type eigen-modes for a class of discrete mechanical or electrical oscillators, when these fractional-type modes are independent and there is no interaction between them. …”

Characterizing the Structure of the Railway Network in China: A Complex Weighted Network Approach by Weiwei Cao, Xiangnan Feng, Jianmin Jia, Hong Zhang

“…Unlike the common feature of a scale-free network, the most connected nodes in CRN are not necessarily the most central due to underlying geographical, political, and socioeconomic factors. We proposed an integrated measure based on the four centrality measures to identify the global role of each node and the multilayer structure of CRN and confirm that stable connections hold between different layers of CRN.…”
