In this paper, we present a high-order expansion for elliptic equations in high-contrast media. The background conductivity is taken to be one and we assume the medium contains high (or low) conductivity inclusions. We derive an asymptotic expansion with respect to the contrast and provide a procedure to compute the terms in the expansion. The computation of the expansion does not depend on the contrast which is important for simulations. The latter allows avoiding increased mesh resolution around high conductivity features. This work is partly motivated by our earlier work in [Domain decomposition preconditioners for multiscale flows in high-contrast media, Multiscale Model Simul.8 (2010) 1461–1483] where we design efficient numerical procedures for solving high-contrast problems. These multiscale approaches require local solutions and our proposed high-order expansion can be used to approximate these local solutions inexpensively. In the case of a large-number of inclusions, the proposed analysis can help to design localization techniques for computing the terms in the expansion. In the paper, we present a rigorous analysis of the proposed high-order expansion and estimate the remainder of it. We consider both high- and low-conductivity inclusions.

A Quantitative Texture Analysis approach to polycrystal piezoelectric and ferroelectric phenomena is given. Monocrystal longitudinal piezoelectric moduli are expanded in Bunge's symmetry- adapted functional bases. Suitable expansion coefficients are given. Orientation Distribution Function based algorithms for polycrystal piezo-moduli prediction are presented. Significant odd-order expansion terms are calculated and their relation to ghost phenomena is commented. Polycrystal ferroelectricity is characterized. Quantitative describers associated to crystallographic and electric orientation distributions are presented and related. Their evolution during heat and poling processes is discussed. Two computer-simulated examples are analyzed: (a) Texture-modulated longitudinal piezo-modulus is calculated for an ideal quartz single-component texture. (b) Barium titanate fibre texture transformation during a hypothetical technological process is investigated.

In this paper, a simple yet robust closed-loop identification method based on step response is presented. By approximating the process response firstly using Laguerre series expansions, a high-order process transfer function can be obtained. Then, a linear two-step reduction technique is used to reduce the high-order process to a second-order plus time delay model based on the frequency response data. This method is robust to measurement noise and it also does not need any numerical technique or iterative optimization. Simulation examples show the effectiveness of the proposed method for different process models. Comparison of identification performance between different methods is also illustrated in this work.
