About this title

Synopsis

Piecewise constant systems exist in widely expanded areas such as engineering, physics, and mathematics. Extraordinary and complex characteristics of piecewise constant systems have been reported in recent years. This book provides the methodologies for analyzing and assessing nonlinear piecewise constant systems on a theoretically and practically sound basis. Recently developed approaches for theoretically analyzing and numerically solving the nonlinear piecewise constant dynamic systems are reviewed. A new greatest integer argument with a piecewise constant function is utilized for nonlinear dynamic analyses and for establishing a novel criterion in diagnosing irregular and chaotic solutions from the regular solutions of a nonlinear dynamic system. The newly established piecewise constantization methodology and its implementation in analytically solving for nonlinear dynamic problems are also presented.

Review

The newly established numerical method provides efficient numerical calculations with good convergence and high accuracy. These research results make the book valuable to specialists in nonlinear mechanics. --Zentralblatt MATH

This research monograph will be useful to mathematicians working on dynamical systems and differential equations with discontinuities, and to researchers working on nonlinear mechanics. --Mathematical Reviews
