Utilizing discontinuous piecewise Lyapunov function for a biological PWA system and extending the analysis via input-to-state type stability

Abstract: We study a piecewise affine (PWA) model of the spiking of neurons located in a subsystem of the olfactory system. Our long-term goal is to understand the stability properties of a network of ...

Agile Continuous Jumping in Discontinuous Terrains

Abstract: We focus on agile, continuous, and terrain-adaptive jumping of quadrupedal robots in discontinuous terrains such as stairs and stepping stones. Unlike single-step jumping, continuous jumping ...

Xia, Y., Xu, Y. and Shu, C. (2007) Efficient Time Discretization for Local Discontinuous Galerkin Methods.

ABSTRACT: We propose a new section-averaged one-dimensional model for blood flows in deformable arteries. The model is derived from the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations, written in ...
