In this study, the comparison of dynamical response of buses used in city transport is investigated based on multi-degrees-of-freedom (DOF) bus models developed in MATLAB/Simulink and correlated against passenger ride comfort criteria. The results showed that 9-DOF full bus model is the best option to estimate passenger ride comfort within an error of 2%, as compared to 5-DOF half and 3-DOF quarter bus models with 7% and 20% errors using one wheel-track, and 24% and 36% errors using two wheel-tracks, respectively. The error was calculated as the difference between simulated results from three bus models and the measured data. These mathematical bus models can be customized for estimating passenger ride comfort and surface roughness of dedicated bus/bus-rapid-transit lanes.","PeriodicalId":49871,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical and Computer Modelling of Dynamical Systems","volume":"27 1","pages":"203 - 221"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13873954.2021.1887276","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46543933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the complexity of the transistor model, several complicated equations arise from which a compact-form solution cannot be obtained and a suitable physical insight cannot be drawn. With this regard, two contributions are presented in this paper. The first one is a fully analytical parameter extraction approach to be applied on the MOS transistors. The second one is a quantitative method for simplifying the analysis of MOS circuits by modelling the MOS transistor by a suitable equivalent resistance adopting the time-delay or the power-consumption equivalence criteria. The parameter-extraction method is verified by using the extracted parameters in the derived expressions according to the second contribution.

The new model is utilized to forecast and analyze Guangdong’s primary energy consumption, in which the time delay parameter is ascertained by the grey correlation analysis method, and the other parameters are determined via particle swarm optimization.

The proposed model can determine a rational or irrational action according to a probability distribution obtained by mixing an optimal policy of a partially observable Markov decision process and an evolved probability distribution by novel dynamics of emotions. Emotion dynamics with consecutive negative observations cause emotion-induced irrational behaviours. We clarify the conditions, via two theorems, that the proposed model computes rational and irrational actions in terms of some model parameters. A numerical example based on Japanese court records is used to confirm that the proposed model imitates the human decision-making process. Moreover, we discuss the possibility of preventive measures for avoiding the murder case scenario.

These networks utilize the feature that the basis made of orthogonal functions can be used for approximation of arbitrary function, while their property of orthogonality enables optimal performances in the sense of both convergence time and approximation error. In this regard, generalized quasi-orthogonal polynomials, specifically tailored for the application in the modelling of complex dynamic systems with time-varying behaviour, are considered. Adaptivity of the designed model is achieved by using variable factors inside the orthogonal basis. The designed orthogonal neural network is applied in modelling of laboratory twin-rotor aero-dynamic system as a representative of nonlinear multiple input-multiple output systems. Detailed comparative analysis is performed for a different number of polynomials in expansion with the purpose of finding the optimal model in the sense of trade-off between model accuracy and complexity.","PeriodicalId":49871,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical and Computer Modelling of Dynamical Systems","volume":"27 1","pages":"246 - 262"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13873954.2021.1909069","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43828963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For many systems, this approach is extremely successful, since the rules are well understood. However, for a large class of systems it is difficult to find rules that adequately describe the behaviour of the agents. A simple example would be two agents playing chess: Here, it is impossible to find simple rules. To solve this problem, we introduce a framework for agent-based modelling that incorporates machine learning. In a process closely related to reinforcement learning, the agents learn rules. As a trade-off, a utility function needs to be defined, which is much simpler in most cases. We test this framework to replicate the results of the prominent Sugarscape model as a proof of principle. Furthermore, we investigate a more complicated version of the Sugarscape model, that exceeds the scope of the original framework. By expanding the framework we also find satisfying results there.","PeriodicalId":49871,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical and Computer Modelling of Dynamical Systems","volume":"27 1","pages":"162 - 178"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13873954.2021.1889609","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48060339","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper proposes the use of a non-minimal set of coordinates for modelling and controlling a fully-actuated torque-driven spherical pendulum. These coordinates is merely for the purpose of showing the application of unit quaternions as a useful tool for dealing with the orientation of rigid bodies. First, we recall the properties of unit quaternions, and explain how they can be employed for the definition of such non-minimal pendulum coordinates. Later, the control objective for orientation regulation is established and an inverse-dynamics controller, which uses joint displacement and velocity measurements but also some non-minimal states for the orientation error, is proposed. The stability analysis shows the fulfilment of the control objective and is validated through simulations.","PeriodicalId":49871,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical and Computer Modelling of Dynamical Systems","volume":"27 1","pages":"3 - 30"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13873954.2020.1853175","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60014573","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Firstly, machining processes are decomposed into activities and activity transitions according to the different characteristics of energy demand.
