This book analyzes a variety of results related to the modeling, analysis, estimation, and control design and the applications of different configurations of tubular reactors of two classes of partial differential equations (hyperbolic and parabolic), both linear and nonlinear. The advantages of using the tubular reactor case to study distributed ......
Starting with the fundamentals of classical smooth optimization and building on established convex programming techniques, this research monograph presents a foundation and methodology for modern nonconvex nondifferentiable optimization. It provides readers with theory, methods, and applications of nonconvex and nondifferentiable optimization in ......
This text presents a unique treatment of network control systems. Drawing from fundamental principles of dynamical systems theory and dynamical thermodynamics, the authors develop a continuous-time, discrete-time, and hybrid dynamical system and control framework for linear and nonlinear large-scale network systems. The proposed framework extends ......
This textbook develops the fundamental skills of numerical analysis: designing numerical methods, implementing them in computer code, and analyzing their accuracy and efficiency. A number of mathematical problems-interpolation, integration, linear systems, zero finding, and differential equations-are considered, and some of the most important ......
Including One Theorem, One Rule of Thumb, and One Hundred and Six Exercises
This book provides an easily accessible, yet detailed, discussion of computer arithmetic as mandated by the IEEE 754 floating point standard, arguably the most important standard in the computer industry. The result of an unprecedented cooperation between academic computer scientists and industry, the standard is supported by virtually every ......
Numerical Linear Algebra with Julia provides in-depth coverage of fundamental topics in numerical linear algebra, including how to solve dense and sparse linear systems, compute QR factorizations, compute the eigendecomposition of a matrix, and solve linear systems using iterative methods such as conjugate gradient. The style is friendly and ......
This comprehensive book focuses on numerical methods for approximating solutions to partial differential equations. Intended as a broad survey of methods, the aim is to introduce readers to the central concepts of various families of discretizations and solution algorithm and lay the foundation needed to understand more advanced material, The book ......
This book is about nonlinear observability. It provides a modern theory of observability based on a new paradigm borrowed from theoretical physics and the mathematical foundation of that paradigm. In the case of observability, this framework takes into account the group of invariance that is inherent to the concept of observability, allowing the ......
A resurgence of interest in network synthesis in the last decade, motivated in part by the introduction of the inerter, has led to the need for a better understanding of the most economical way to realize a given passive impedance. This monograph outlines the main contributions to the field of passive network synthesis and presents new research ......
