Passivity Analysis of Dynamic Neural Networks with Different Time-scales

Dynamic neural networks with different time-scales include the aspects of fast and slow phenomenons. Some applications require that the equilibrium points of the designed networks are stable. In this paper, the passivity-based approach is used to derive stability conditions for dynamic neural networks with different time-scales. Several stability properties, such as passivity, asymptotic stability, input-to-state stability and bounded input bounded output stability, are guaranteed in certain senses. A numerical example is also given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

Estimating thermal stress in BIPV modules

The thermal stress on building‐integrated photovoltaic modules (BIPV) in Espoo, Finland, was studied with field‐testing of amorphous silicon modules. Based on these results, the thermal stress at two other European locations (Paris and Lisbon) was estimated. The estimation procedure entailed thermal modelling of heat transfer in the façade with meteorological data as input. The results indicate that the thermal stress on BIPV modules in Lisbon is, in this case, approximately 50% higher that in Espoo and between 80 and 200% higher than in Paris, depending on the activation energy of the degradation process. The difference in stress between a BIPV module and a free‐standing module in Espoo was 50–200%. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Homogeneous Lyapunov function for homogeneous continuous vector field

The goal of this article is to provide a construction of a homogeneous Lyapunov function associated with a system of differential equations , under the hypotheses: (1) vanishes at x = 0 and is homogeneous; (2) the zero solution of this system is locally asymptotically stable. Moreover, the Lyapunov function tends to infinity with x, and belongs to , with as large as wanted. As application to the theory of homogeneous systems, we present two well known results of robustness, in a slightly extended form, and with simpler proofs.

Mean-square stability for discrete bilinear systems in Hilbert space

A discrete system is uniformly mean-square stable if uniform convergence is preserved between input and state correlation sequences, and if nuclearity is preserved between the input and state correlation limits. This paper supplies a contraction-free condition ensuring mean-square stability for infinite-dimensional bilinear systems evolving in a separable Hilbert space.     

Influence of washing and of heat-treatment conditions on the thermal stability of VPI-5

Thorough washing of a VPI-5 synthesized with n-dipropylamine as template improves greatly its thermal stability while no major change is observed in the template content. A detailed study of the influence of the pretreatment conditions shows that in order to obtain a high thermal stability (up to at least 960 °C) two parameters are of importance. The removal of both the template and the adsorbed water requires either a low heating rate at atmospheric pressure or a low pressure (less than 3 Torr) when the heating rate is 300 ° per hour.
