This article deals with time-domain hydroelastic analysis of a marine structure. The convolution terms associated with fluid memory effects are replaced by an alternative state-space representation, the parameters of which are obtained by using realization theory. The mathematical model established is validated by comparison to experimental results of a very flexible barge. Two types of time-domain simulations are performed: dynamic response of the initially inert structure to incident regular waves and transient response of the structure after it is released from a displaced condition in still water. The accuracy and the efficiency of the simulations based on the state-space model representations are compared to those that integrate the convolutions.

Slip-stick friction occurs when the relative velocity between sliding surfaces approaches zero and the surfaces become ‘stuck’, requiring a force larger than the sliding friction force to break the surfaces loose, allowing sliding to resume. Mathematically, these physics are an example of ‘ideal switching’ where the velocity is zero and the force is determined by other parts of the system, or the force is set by the friction model (and could be zero), and the velocity is determined by other parts of the system. A switch in an electric circuit is another example. Including ideal switches in an overall physical system model is complicated by the inversion of causality when the switch occurs. In one state the velocity is prescribed and the force is determined, and in the other state the force is prescribed and the velocity is determined. Such causal inversions create formulation and computational problems, and these problems can be quite prohibitive if many switches are part of the model. This paper presents fixed causal models for slip-stick friction that allow a single state space model to be used regardless of the number of switches. Such a development allows simulation of multiple plate brakes and clutches, or ideal rectifiers, using an explicit first-order state space representation. It should be noted that there has been extensive work in the development of models that represent the physics of friction. One such model is the LuGre model [1] where microstructural displacements are modelled. Our intent here is not to extend the physics of slip-stick friction, but rather to reasonably represent the physics while providing a computationally convenient method for including slip-stick friction in overall system models.

Abstract In this work, a model predictive controller is developed for a multiple injection combustion model. A 1D engine model with three distinct injections is used to generate data for identifying the state-space representation of the engine model. This state-space model is then used to design a controller for controlling the start of injection and injected fuel mass of the post injection. These parameters are used as inputs for the engine model to control the maximum cylinder pressure and indicated mean effective pressure.

A hydraulic attenuator has been used in hydraulic active suspension systems of automotive vehicles to reduce high amplitude ripple pressure of a pump. The hydraulic attenuator considered in this study is so highly non-linear and of high order that the analysis in the time domain has been performed infrequently, although the frequency response analysis with the transfer matrix method was applicable. In this paper, a state space representation of the dynamics for a hydraulic attenuator is presented, utilizing the electrical analogy. The results of the experiment are compared with those of the simulation to validate the state space model proposed. The comparison reveals that the state space model proposed is practically applicable for estimating the dynamic responses of the hydraulic attenuator in the time domain.
