Chaos control methods applied to avoid bifurcations

Chaos may be exploited in order to design dynamical systems that may quickly react to some new situation, changing conditions and their response.

CADR Seminars (Two Presentations)

Computational Investigation of Turbidity Currents and River Outflows

We will present an overview of high-resolution, Navier-Stokes based simulations of gravity/turbidity currents and river outflows.

Cavity dynamics of water entry for spheres and ballistic projectiles

The hydrodynamics of water entry are investigated experimentally for low Froude numbers for spheres and ballistic projectiles.

Regenerative Chatter in Turning

In this talk, I will focus on some simple models for regenerative chatter.

New Approaches to Inverse Problems in Engineering and Medical Diagnostic Imaging

We consider a novel family of pseudo-time marching schemes for a class of nonlinear inverse problems of parameter identification that involve statically acquired and noisy measurement data.

General perspectives on engineering challenges associated with fusion reactor development

In this seminar, the feature of magnetic fusion energy (MFE) and inertia fusion energy (IFE) are introduced at first.

Metallurgical Effects Upon the Shock Response of Face Centred Cubic Metals and Alloys

The response of materials to shock loading is controlled by factors at the meso-scale (for example grain size, distribution of second phases etc), micro-scale (dislocations, twins etc) and the unit cell levels (face centred cubic, body centred cubic etc).

Hydrodynamics of heterogeneous distributions of benthic organisms in...

Hydrodynamics of heterogeneous distributions of benthic organisms in inter-tidal and shallow sub-tidal zones.

Optimal Fault Tolerant Design of Linearly Mapped Systems

Many complex systems are described locally by linear mappings.
