Hi, I am ultimately looking to be able to have an analog circuit with an amplifier that uses a pot for the resistor over the op amp (maybe there's a better way, let me know if there is). I want to be able to control the shape of the gain roll-on/roll-off, and have it be functions of R...

Proof: Consider the nonlinear integro-differential equation ## \frac{dx}{dt}=-\lambda x(t)+\epsilon x(t)\int_{0}^{\infty}f(t-s)x(s)ds, \lvert \epsilon \rvert<<1, x(0)=A ##, where ## \lambda ## is a positive constant and ## f(z) ## is a sufficiently well-behaved function. Let ## \epsilon=0 ##...

For g) how should I argue this claim? To me it seems straight forward because u is linearly related to z. Then so do their derivatives. And by the description of the model, ##\dot z## is linear to y. So it's quite obvious but not sure what I should pay more attention to when I write my proof...

I know the method is involving adjoint equation, lagrange functional and conserwation laws but i dont know how to do it, please help! I know something like this: that we must split our function into two F=(F_1,F_2), also u=(u_1,u_2) and v=(v_1,v_2) and we must calculate adjoint equation F* and...

Hello, please let me split me split my question into 3 blocks. The first: The problem and the solution. The second: The question. The third: Maybe weird thoughts about about a similar problem. The problem and the solution $$ \begin{align*} 6^x+6^y &= 42 \\ x+y &= 3 \end{align*} $$ This is...

The PDE is $$ \frac{1}{a^2 x^2} (u_y)^2 - (u_x)^2 =1$$ I know the solution, its ## u=x senh(ay) ##, but I dont know how I can get it. I've tried variable separation and method of characteristics but they dont seem to work.

I think I managed to solve the entire problem, as I show below. My main doubt is about item (e), the incremental circuit. Part (a) Using the node method and KCL we reach $$\frac{v_I-v_A}{2}=10(1-e^{-v_A/5})\tag{1}$$ Part (b) We can simplify (1) to $$v_A=5\ln{\left ( \frac{20}{v_A+20-v_I}...

I am quite stumped here. This is what I did so far. 1) The first thing I did was to forget about the terminals to the left and the diode, and to write the circuit as a Thevenin equivalent circuit. Then I put in the diode. However, the terminals we are interested in are lost when we do this...

given something like: an = c where c is given and a, n, and c are only allowed to be integers. how would one find the value of say n or a?

Let ##D## be a smooth, bounded domain in ##\mathbb{R}^n## and ##f : D \to (0, \infty)## a continuous function. Prove that there exists no ##C^2##-solution ##u## of the nonlinear elliptic problem ##\Delta u^2 = f## in ##D##, ##u = 0## on ##\partial D##.

Hello, Regression analysis is about finding/estimating the coefficients for a particular function ##f## that would best fit the data. The function ##f## could be a straight line, an exponential, a power law, etc. The goal remains the same: finding the coefficients. If the data does not show a...

I was trying to fit a set of data to the nonlinear equation $$ y=\frac{kx}{5+cx} $$ and find the parameters k,c that will result in a best fit, but (I was told without explanation) that the parameters change as we increase x, so regular fitting techniques such as nonlinear least square will not...

Hi all, I want to know if a second solution exists for the following math equation: Ce^{At} ρ_p+(CA)^{−1} (e^{At}−I)B=0 Where C, ρ_p, A and B are constant matrices, 't' is scalar variable. I know that atleast one solution i.e. 〖t=θ〗_1 exists, but I want a method to determine if there is...

Hello, Models can be linear and nonlinear and I just learned that a "linear model" is not just a model where the dependent variable ##Y## is connected to independent variables ##X## raised to the 1st power... The model is called "linear" because the coefficients/parameters are not raised to...

hi, i am going through differential equations which are nonlinear and singular - like Lane-Emden equation etc. my question is how to tackle singularity - while coding. regards

hi, i am working on nonlinear differential equation- i know rules which decide the equation to be nonlinear - but i want an answer by which i can satisfy a lay man that why the word nonlinear is used. it is easy to explain nonlinearity in case of simple equation i.e when output is not...

I have a machine I am designing that for all intensive descriptions, is a simple press designed to compress loose product into a puck like shape. The press force comes from a roller bearing mounted to a piston shaft, the rod sliding through a rigid linear bearing and the piston on the end of...

Can I create a nonlinear spring, for a nonlinear oscillator, by putting many linear springs in series and parallel?

Hello everyone! I am analysing an 18 m per 1.2 m truss, simply supported, with 140x5 chords and 90x8 braces. I then loaded the superior nodes with 500 KN. The top nodes were also laterally constrained to prevent out-of-plane displacements. After imputing the structure in Abaqus (FEA software), I...

Hi. I would like to use a CAS to solve systems of nonlinear equations symbolically. The JavaScript library Nerdamer can solve single nonlinear equations symbolically shown here, and I would like to use that function iteratively to solve systems. For example, if I have a system of three equations...

Given the hamiltonian: \hat{H} = \hbar \omega_{0} \hat{a}^{+}\hat{a} + \chi (\hat{a}^{+}\hat{a})^2, where ##\hat{a}^{+}##, ##\hat{a}## are creation and annihilation operators. Find evolution of the state ##|\psi(t) \rangle##, knowing that initial state ##|\psi(0)\rangle = |\alpha\rangle##...

That's pretty much it. If there is a very basic strategy that I am forgetting from ODEs, please let me know, though I don't recall any strategies for nonlinear second order equations. I've tried looking up "motion of a free falling object" with various specifications to try to get the solution...

What are the possible ways of solving the operating point of air gapped transformer with nonlinear B-H curve? For example let's consider 3C90 E34 sized core with 0.5 mm airgap. I know that the magnetomotive force over the ferrite part can be formulated as function of the reluctances...

Hello Everyone! I read about the function of the ruby laser which made from ruby crystal and has three energy levels. There is radiationless transition to what so called metastable level and then the electrons there stimulated to transit to ground energy state. The question is: does this...

I am trying to solve a PDE (which I believe can be approximated as an ODE). I have tried to solve it using 4th Order Runge-Kutta in MATLAB, but have struggled with convergence, even at an extremely high number of steps (N=100,000,000). The PDE is: \frac{\partial^2 E(z)}{\partial z^2} +...

hi guys i saw this problem online about using the MATLAB ode45 to solve the nonlinear Hoock's law and its specifically stated that the nonlinear hoock's law is given by $$F = k\;u + \epsilon\;u^{3}$$ , but when expanding the potential function in a Taylor series where you obtain the force...

This equation, is non linear, non-separable, and weird. I would like to have a direction to start working on this. I tried writing sin(2y) = 2sin(y)*cos(y). See, ##xy' = x^3sin^2(y)-2sin(y)cos(y)## Can't separate. Writing in this way: ##(x^3sin^2y-sin2y)dx-xdy=0## Also, I checked that it is...

I am trying to derive the adjoint / tangent linear model matrix for this partial differential equation, but cannot follow the book's steps as I do not know the math. This technique will be used to solve another homework question. Rather than posting the homework question, I would like to...

My attempt is attached below. When I tried to solve it , nothing comes up. However, there are no errors !

We are given that ##i_D = 8\cdot 10^{-12} (e^{v_D/20m} - 1)## Hence ##i_D' = e^{50 v_D}/2500000000## and ##i_D'' = e^{50 v_D}/50000000## Then I have that ##\delta i_D \approx\frac{ e^{50 v_D}}{2500000000} \cdot \delta v_D = \delta v_D / 5## Cancelling ##\delta v_D## from boh sides and solving...

I have no problem getting the ##R_{TH}## since from the special element's POV, the resistors are in parallel, and that's the answer. However, I don't really understand how to get ##V_{TH}##. Ignoring the special element, it seems that I have the resistors in series this time. But I'm not too...

I don't really understand or see the correct way to approach this. Letting the current in question be ##i_x## (as shown in Fig. 1), and the unknown (changing) resistance be $R_x$, I can write: ##-V_s + R_s i_s + i_x R_x = 0##, and ##R_p i_p = i_x R_x##. Hence we can also write ##-V_s + R_s i_s...

Continuing the summary, the author argues that if ##g## is nearly 1, i.e ##g(u)\approx 1+\epsilon(u)##, one obtains the solution: ##f(u)\approx 1-\epsilon(a)##. The derivative in the summary, i.e the dots represent derivatives with respect to ##u##. Then how to deduce the solution for ##f##? If...

Unlike in electromagnetics, the nonlinearity of mechanical structures is not only due to the material property. It could be due to large deformation and contact as well. Even though I will be implementing the existing and popular methods, I am still scared and I feel it is not a job that can be...
