A frequency-domain Volterra model (FVM) is a nonlinear representation obtained when the multivariable Laplace transform is applied to a sum of multidimensional convolution integrals of increasing order. Two classes of FVMs can be identified. The first class of FVM is the Volterra transfer function (VTF) which has been recognized as a useful tool for nonlinear systems modeling and simulation. The second class of FVM is the Volterra dynamic model (VDM) which has been used in the modular assembly and condensation of port-based nonlinear models. Since physical nonlinear systems are frequently modeled using ordinary differential equations (ODEs), it is of significant value to derive their equivalent FVM representations from a corresponding ODE. Even though methods to obtain VTFs for multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) nonlinear ODEs are available, a general procedure to obtain the two classes of FVMs does not exist. In this work, a methodology to obtain the two classes of FVMs from port-based nonlinear ODEs is explained. Two cases are shown. In the first case, the ODEs do not include cross product nonlinearities. In the second case, cross products are included. An example is presented to clarify the idea, and the time response obtained from the nonlinear ODE model is compared to its corresponding third order VTF and its linearized model.

In this paper, a new class of Runge–Kutta-type collocation methods for the numerical integration of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) is presented. Its derivation is based on the integral form of the differential equation. The approach enables enhancing the accuracy of the established collocation Runge–Kutta methods while retaining the same number of stages. We demonstrate that, with the proposed approach, the Gauss–Legendre and Lobatto IIIA methods can be derived and that their accuracy can be improved for the same number of method coefficients. We expressed the methods in the form of tables similar to Butcher tableaus. The performance of the new methods is investigated on some well-known stiff, oscillatory, and nonlinear ODEs from the literature.

We present a short history of the Ermakov equation with an emphasis on its discovery by thewest and the subsequent boost to research into invariants for nonlinear systems although recognizing some of the significant developments in the east. We present the modern context of the Ermakov equation in the algebraic and singularity theory of ordinary differential equations and applications to more divers fields. The reader is referred to the previous article (Appl. Anal. Discrete math., 2 (2008), 123-145) for an english translation of Ermakov's original paper.

This paper develops and validates through a series of presentable examples, a comprehensive high-precision, and ultrafast computing concept for solving nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and partial differential equations (PDEs) with cellular neural networks (CNN). The core of this concept is a straightforward scheme that we call "nonlinear adaptive optimization (NAOP),” which is used for a precise template calculation for solving nonlinear ODEs and PDEs through CNN processors. One of the key contributions of this work is to demonstrate the possibility of transforming different types of nonlinearities displayed by various classical and well-known nonlinear equations (e.g., van der Pol-, Rayleigh-, Duffing-, Rössler-, Lorenz-, and Jerk-equations, just to name a few) unto first-order CNN elementary cells, and thereby enabling the easy derivation of corresponding CNN templates. Furthermore, in the case of PDE solving, the same concept also allows a mapping unto first-order CNN cells while considering one or even more nonlinear terms of the Taylor's series expansion generally used in the transformation of a PDE in a set of coupled nonlinear ODEs. Therefore, the concept of this paper does significantly contribute to the consolidation of CNN as a universal and ultrafast solver of nonlinear ODEs and/or PDEs. This clearly enables a CNN-based, real-time, ultraprecise, and low-cost computational engineering. As proof of concept, two examples of well-known ODEs are considered namely a second-order linear ODE and a second order nonlinear ODE of the van der Pol type. For each of these ODEs, the corresponding precise CNN templates are derived and are used to deduce the expected solutions. An implementation of the concept developed is possible even on embedded digital platforms (e.g., field programmable gate array (FPGA), digital signal processor (DSP), graphics processing unit (GPU), etc.). This opens a broad range of applications. Ongoing works (as outlook) are using NAOP for deriving precise templates for a selected set of practically interesting ODEs and PDEs equation models such as Lorenz-, Rössler-, Navier Stokes-, Schrödinger-, Maxwell-, etc.

Forced Lorenz system, important in modeling of monsoonlike phenomena, is analyzed for the existence of heteroclinic orbit. This is done in the light of the suggested new mechanism for the onset of chaos by Magnitskii and Sidorov (2006, “Finding Homoclinic and Heteroclinic Contours of Singular Points of Nonlinear Systems of Ordinary Differential Equations,” Diff. Eq., 39, pp. 1593–1602), where heteroclinic orbits plays important and dominant roles. The analysis is performed based on the theory laid down by Shilnikov. An analytic expression in the form of uniformly convergent series is obtained. The same orbit is also obtained numerically by a technique enunciated by Magnitskii and Sidorov, reproducing the necessary important features.

In this paper we study the asymptotic behaviour of the following systems of ordinary differential equations:where the identically zero function is a solution of (N) i.e. f(t, 0)=0 for all time t. Suppose one knows that all the solutions of (N) which start near zero remain near zero for all future time or even that they approach zero as time increases. For the perturbed systems (P) and (P1) the above property concerning the solutions near zero may or may not remain true. A more precise formulation of this problem is as follows: if zero is stable or asymptotically stable for (N), and if the functions g(t, x) and h(t, x) are small in some sense, give conditions on f(t, x) so that zero is (eventually) stable or asymptotically stable for (P) and (P1).

The article states the sufficient polystability conditions for part of variables for nonlinear systems of ordinary differential equations with a sufficiently smooth right-hand side. The obtained theorem proof is based on the establishment of a local componentwise Brauer asymptotic equivalence. An operator in the Banach space that connects the solutions of the nonlinear system and its linear approximation is constructed. This operator satisfies the conditions of the Schauder principle, therefore, it has at least one fixed point. Further, using the estimates of the non-zero elements of the fundamental matrix, conditions that ensure the transition of the properties of polystability are obtained, if the trivial solution of the linear approximation system to solutions of a nonlinear system that is locally componentwise asymptotically equivalent to its linear approximation. There are given examples, that illustrate the application of proven sufficient conditions to the study of polystability of zero solutions of nonlinear systems of ordinary differential equations, including in the critical case, and also in the presence of positive eigenvalues.

Degenerate matrix method for numerical solving nonlinear systems of ordinary differential equations is considered. The method is based on an application of special degenerate matrix and usual iteration procedure. The method, which is connected with an implicit Runge‐Kutta method, can be simply realized on computers. An estimation for the error of the method is given.

Nonlinear physical systems frequently perform around constant non-zero input-output operating conditions. This local behavior can be modeled using port-based nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs). An ODE local solution around an specific input-output operating point can be obtained through the Volterra transfer function (VTF) model. In a past work a procedure for obtaining MIMO Volterra models from port-based nonlinear ODEs was presented. This previous work considered only systems operating at zero input-output conditions subject to linear inputs. In this work the process for obtaining MIMO Volterra transfer functions is extended for systems operating at non-zero input-output conditions. This extension also allows systems that are nonlinear functions of their inputs and input derivatives.
