The paper presents a nonlinear mathematical model for the operation of the fuel metering unit, which takes into account the operation of the control valve, which includes two pistons and three fuel circuits. A technique for determining the initial conditions for a system of ordinary differential equations describing the movements of a servo piston, a piston of a constant pressure gradient valve and a piston of a control valve is proposed.

We study the center-focus problem as well as the number of limit cycles which bifurcate from a weak focus for several families of planar discontinuous ordinary differential equations. Our computations of the return map near the critical point are performed with a new method based on a suitable decomposition of certain one-forms associated with the expression of the system in polar coordinates. This decomposition simplifies all the expressions involved in the procedure. Finally, we apply our results to study a mathematical model of a mechanical problem, the movement of a ball between two elastic walls.

A model for the plume above a line fire in a cross wind is constructed. This problem is shown to reduce to numerically solving a system of 6 coupled ordinary differential equations for given initial conditions that depend upon the fire characteristics. The model is valid above the flaming zone and takes inputs such as the width, velocity and temperature of the plume at a given height above the flaming zone, Different horizontal ambient wind velocities are allowed for and a comparison is made between some of these representative wind profiles. The plume trajectory, width, velocity and temperature are calculated for these different representative velocity profiles. This model has application to the calculation of temperature-time exposures of vegetation above line fires and hence can be used in models that predict effects such as leaf scorch and canopy stored seed death. On a larger scale it has application to the problem of tracking burning brands which can cause spotting ahead of the fire.

In this work, by using an algebraic criterion presented by us in an earlier paper, we determine the conditions on the parameters in order to guarantee the nonchaotic behavior for some classes of nonlinear third-order ordinary differential equations of the form [Formula: see text] called jerk equations, where [Formula: see text] is a polynomial of degree [Formula: see text]. This kind of equation is often used in literature to study chaotic dynamics, due to its simple form and because it appears as mathematical model in several applied problems. Hence, it is an important matter to determine when it is chaotic and also nonchaotic. The results stated here, which are proved using the mentioned algebraic criterion, corroborate and extend some results already presented in literature, providing simpler proofs for the nonchaotic behavior of certain jerk equations. The algebraic criterion proved by us is quite general and can be used to study nonchaotic behavior of other types of ordinary differential equations.

Ambarzumian’s method had been used for the first time to solve a radiant interchange problem. A rectangular cavity is defined by two semi-infinite parallel gray surfaces which are subject to an exponentially varying heat flux, i.e., q = q0 exp(−mx). Instead of solving the integral equation for the radiosity for each value of m, solutions for all values of m are obtained simultaneously. Using Ambarzumian’s method, the integral equation for the radiosity is first transformed into an integro-differential equation and then into a system of ordinary differential equations. Initial conditions required to solve the differential equations are the H functions which represent the radiosity at the edge of the cavity for various values of m. This H function is shown to satisfy a nonlinear integral equation which is easily solved by iteration. Numerical results for the H function and radiosity distribution within the cavity are presented for a wide range of m values.

This paper explores the dynamic modeling of a novel two stage bidirectional poppet valve and proposes a control scheme that uses a Nodal Link Perceptron Network (NLPN). The dynamic nonlinear mathematical model of this Electro-Hydraulic Control Valve (EHCV) is based on the analysis of the interactions among its mechanical, hydraulic, and electromagnetic subsystems. A discussion on experimental approaches to determine the model parameters is included along with model validation results. Finally, the control scheme is developed by proposing that the states of the EHCV follow a set of desired states, which are calculated based upon the desired valve flow conductance coefficient KV. A simulation is presented at the end to verify the proposed control scheme.

A set of first-order ordinary differential equations with initial conditions is derived for the exact, nonlinear, inextensional deformation of a loaded plate bounded by two straight edges and two curved ones. The analysis extends earlier approximate work of Mansfield and Kleeman, Ashwell, and Lin, Lin, and Mazelsky. For a plate clamped along one straight edge and subject to a force and couple along the other, there are 13 differential equations, but an independent set of 9 may be split off. In a subsequent paper, we consider alternate forms of these 9 equations for plates that twist as they deform. Their structure and solutions are compared to Mansfield’s approximate equations and particular attention is given to tip-loaded triangular plates.

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>The Laplace transform is a popular approach in solving ordinary differential equations (ODEs), particularly solving initial value problems (IVPs) of ODEs. Such stereotype may confuse students when they face a task of solving ODEs without explicit initial condition(s). In this paper, four case studies of solving ODEs by the Laplace transform are used to demonstrate that, firstly, how much influence of the stereotype of the Laplace transform was on student's perception of utilizing this method to solve ODEs under different initial conditions; secondly, how the generalization of the Laplace transform for solving linear ODEs with generic initial conditions can not only break down the stereotype but also broaden the applicability of the Laplace transform for solving constant-coefficient linear ODEs. These case studies also show that the Laplace transform is even more robust for obtaining the specific solutions directly from the general solution once the initial values are assigned later. This implies that the generic initial conditions in the general solution obtained by the Laplace transform could be used as a point of control for some dynamic systems.</p>
