Switched Systems Reduction Framework Based on Convex Combination of Generalized Gramians by Hamid Reza Shaker, Rafael Wisniewski

“…In order to avoid numerical instability and also to increase the numerical efficiency, convex generalized gramian-based Petrov-Galerkin projection is constructed instead of the similarity transform approach for reduction. It is proven that the method preserves the stability of the original switched system at least for stabilizing switching signal and it is also less conservative than the method which is based on the common generalized gramian. …”

Communication emitter individual identification based on 3D-Hibert energy spectrum and multi-scale fractal features by Jie HAN, Tao ZHANG, Huan-huan WANG, Dong-fang REN

“…For communication emitter identification,a novel method based on Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) and multi-scale fractal features was proposed.First,the time frequency energy spectrum was derived via HHT,which was called a complicated curved surface in the three-dimension space,namely,3D-Hilbert energy spectrum.Then,the differential box dimension and the multi-fractal dimension was extracted to compose the feature vector under multi-scale segmentation using fractal theory.Finally,communication emitter individual identification was obtained using the two dimensions of features above and the support vector machine (SVM).Moreover,the novel method was compared with two existing methods to identify simulated and actual signals with different and the same modulation modes,respectively.Results show that the identification rate of the novel method is higher than that of the two other methods.The features extracted by the novel method have high stability,sufficiency,and identifiability,also outweigh the negative effects of the change of signal-to-noise ratio and the number of training samples and emitters.…”

Modeling of Thermal Distributions around a Barrier at the Interface of Coating and Substrate by Ali Sahin

“…Due to constant heat flux, the thermal distribution around an insulated barrier at the interface of substrate and functionally graded material (FGM) which are essentially two-phase particulate composites is examined in such a way that the volume fractions of the constituents vary continuously in the thickness direction. Using integral transform method, two-dimensional steady-state diffusion equation with variable conductivity is turned into constant coefficient differential equation. …”
