Average consensus in networks of dynamic agents with switching topologies and multiple time-varying delays

In this paper, we discuss average consensus problem in undirected networks of dynamic agents with fixed and switching topologies as well as multiple time-varying communication delays. By employing a linear matrix inequality method, we prove that all the nodes in the network achieve average consensus asymptotically for appropriate communication delays if the network topology is connected. Particularly, several feasible linear matrix inequalities are established to determine the maximal allowable upper bound of time-varying communication delays. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness and the sharpness of the theoretical results.     

A parallel and scalable algorithm for ADI method with pre-propagation and message vectorization

It is hard to implement the ADI method in an efficient way on distributed-memory parallel computers. We propose “P-scheme” which parallelizes a tridiagonal linear system of equations for the ADI method, but its effectiveness is limited to the cases where the problem size is large enough mainly because of the communication cost of the propagation phase of the scheme.

In order to overcome this difficulty, we propose an improved version of the P-scheme with “message vectorization” which aggregates several communication messages into one and alleviates the communication cost. Also we evaluate the effectiveness of message vectorization for the ADI method and show that the improved version of the P-scheme works well even for smaller problems and linear and super-linear speedups can be achieved for 8194 × 8194 and 16,386 × 16,386 problems, respectively.     

Measurement of the coolant flow rate using correlation of temperature fluctuations

The transit time of the coolant, and thus its velocity, has been measured using the temperature fluctuation at the outlet of a reactor core. An impulse response function estimation is introduced, which substitutes the widely used cross-correlation measurement technique. It is shown in theory and practice that the time delay estimation is improved when using the impulse response function instead of the cross-correlation function in parameter estimation. Extremely low velocities (down to 2 cm/sec) have been measured in a natural circulation regime in a research reactor.

Fracture toughness of thermoset composites reinforced by perfectly bonded impenetrable short fibers

The fracture toughness of brittle thermoset resins could be improved significantly by perfectly bonded tough, short fibers through both crack trapping and bridging effects. In this paper, the crack trapping effect was studied through the analysis of the change of strain energy associated with the crack propagation across a regular array of fibers, and the bridging effect was discussed based on the Andersson–Bergkvist model. The fracture resistance increases with the fiber volume fraction, and is independent of the elastic properties of the matrix, the crack length, and the cross-sectional diameter of the fibers.

The stiffness matrix in elastically articulated rigid-body systems

Discussed in this paper is the Cartesian stiffness matrix, which recently has received special attention within the robotics research community. Stiffness is a fundamental concept in mechanics; its representation in mechanical systems whose potential energy is describable by a finite set of generalized coordinates takes the form of a square matrix that is known to be, moreover, symmetric and positive-definite or, at least, semi-definite. We attempt to elucidate in this paper the notion of “asymmetric stiffness matrices”. In doing so, we show that to qualify for a stiffness matrix, the matrix should be symmetric and either positive semi-definite or positive-definite. We derive the conditions under which a matrix mapping small-amplitude displacement screws into elastic wrenches fails to be symmetric. From the discussion, it should be apparent that the asymmetric matrix thus derived cannot be, properly speaking, a stiffness matrix. The concept is illustrated with an example.
