Abstract In this paper, bifurcation analysis and numerical simulations are performed on the FitzHugh-Nagumo system in the presence of Lévy stable noise. The stationary probability density functions are obtained to examine the influences of noise intensity and stability index. Results show that under the influences of noise intensity and stability index, the dynamic of the FitzHugh-Nagumo model can be well characterized through the concept of stochastic bifurcation, consisting in qualitative changes of the stationary probability distribution. Then, the mean passage time between the resting and action state is investigated as functions of noise intensity and stability index of the external signal… More >

Abstract Computational simulation models with different fidelity have been widely used in complex systems design. However, running the most accurate simulation models tends to be very time-consuming and can therefore only be used sporadically, while incorporating less accurate, inexpensive models into the design process may result in inaccurate design alternatives. To make a trade-off between high accuracy and low expense, variable fidelity (VF) metamodeling approaches that aim to integrate information from both low fidelity (LF) and high-fidelity (HF) models have gained increasing popularity. In this paper, a Difference Mapping Framework using Ensemble of Metamodels (DMF-EM) for global VF metamodeling is proposed.… More >

Abstract The paper presents a comprehensive study on the performance of long endurance and long distance trajectory optimization of engineless UAV in dynamic soaring. A dynamic model of engineless UAV in gradient wind field is developed. Long endurance and long distance trajectory optimization problems are modelled by non-linear optimal control equations. Two different boundary conditions are considered and results are compared: (i) open long endurance pattern, (ii) closed long endurance pattern, (iii) open long distance pattern. In patterns of (i) and (ii), the UAV return to original position with the maximum flying time in pattern (ii) , and in patterns of… More >
