Stochastic Differential Equations (SDEs) model physical phenomena dominated by stochastic processes. They represent a method for studying the dynamic evolution of a physical phenomenon, like ordinary or partial differential equations, but with an additional term called “noise” that represents a perturbing factor that cannot be attached to a classical mathematical model. In this paper, we study weak and strong convergence for six numerical schemes applied to a multiplicative noise, an additive, and a system of SDEs. The Efficient Runge–Kutta (ERK) technique, however, comes out as the top performer, displaying the best convergence features in all circumstances, including in the difficult setting of multiplicative noise. This result highlights the importance of researching cutting-edge numerical techniques built especially for stochastic systems and we consider to be of good help to the MATLAB function code for the ERK method.

Additive manufacturing (AM) technologies are becoming a global phenomenon in the manufacturing industry. The progressiveness of additive manufacturing lies in its universality. AM makes it possible to produce parts with complex shapes from different materials without any tools, using only one device. Complex and time-consuming production preparation is eliminated by using AM. It is used in a wide range of industries. Although additive manufacturing is a progressive technology, the currently applied conservative approach has significant limits. The presented work focuses on the development of a new methodology for controlling the AM process. This methodology is based on the outputs of the strength simulation of a specific component through the finite element method (FEM) and their implementation in the printing software of the production equipment. The developed algorithm for controlling the AM process consists of a sequence of successive steps. The designed CAD model of the component is subjected to FEM simulation in order to analyze the von Mises stress in the entire volume of the loaded component. Stresses are distributed asymmetrically in the volume of the component due to the shape and nature of the load. The results of the FEM analysis allow the definition of the volumes in the component with different levels of infill geometry and infill density based on different levels of stress. The FEM simulation also serves to define the effective fiber orientation. The goal of implementing FEM simulation into the building structure of the component is to achieve a symmetrical distribution of stresses in the entire volume. Through the symmetry of internal stresses, it is possible to obtain more efficient production with high productivity and component strength. The work also deals with experimental research on the effect of the building structure on flexural strength. The results of FEM simulation and experimental research are integrated into the developed slicer software to design a layering of the model and the setting of technological and material parameters of printing. This progressive approach makes it possible to generate data for 3D printing based on FEM analysis of components to obtain an optimized printed structure of components and optimized technological and material parameters with regard to maximizing the strength of components and minimizing production times and costs.

This paper introduces a new concept called q-rung picture uncertain linguistic fuzzy sets (q-RPULSs). These sets provide a reliable and comprehensive method for describing complex and uncertain decision-making information. In addition, q-RPULSs help to integrate the decision maker’s quantitative assessment ideas with qualitative assessment information. For the q-RPUL multi-attribute group decision-making problem with unknown weight information, an entropy-based fuzzy set method for q-rung picture uncertainty language is proposed. The method considers the interrelationships among attributes and builds a q-rung picture uncertain language model. In addition, the q-RPULMSM operator and its related properties are discussed in this paper. This operator enables the fusion of q-RPULSs and helps to reach consensus in decision-making scenarios. To demonstrate the validity of the methodology, we provide a real case study involving commodity selection. Based on this case study, the reasonableness and superiority of the method are evaluated, highlighting the practical advantages and applicability of q-RPULSs in decision-making processes.

Although partition temperature derived using the Darwin–Fowler method is exact for simple scenarios, the derivation for complex systems might reside in specific approximations whose viability is not ensured if the thermodynamic limit is not attained. This work elaborates on a related problem relevant to relativistic high-energy collisions. On the one hand, it is simple enough that closed-form expressions can be obtained precisely for the one-particle distribution function. On the other hand, the resulting expression is not an exponential form, and therefore, it is not straightforward that the notion of partition function could be implied. Specifically, we derive the one-particle distribution function for massless particles where the phase-space integration is performed exactly for the underlying canonical ensemble consisting of a given number of particles. We discuss the viability of the partition temperature in this case. Possible implications of the obtained results regarding the observed Tsallis distribution in transverse momentum spectra in high-energy collisions are also addressed.

Automated guided vehicles (AGVs) are one of the core technologies for building unmanned autonomous integrated automated electric meter verification workshops in metrology centers. However, complex obstacles on the verification lines, frequent AGV charging, and multi-AGV collaboration make the scheduling problem more complicated. Aiming at the characteristics and constraints of AGV transportation scheduling for metrology verification, a multi-AGV scheduling model was established to minimize the maximum completion time and charging cost, integrating collision-avoidance constraints. An improved snake optimization algorithm was proposed that first assigns and sorts tasks based on AGV-order-address three-level mapping encoding and decoding, then searches optimal paths using an improved A* algorithm solves multi-AGV path conflicts, and finally finds the minimum-charging-cost schedule through large neighborhood search. We conducted simulations using real data, and the calculated results reduced the objective function value by 16.4% compared to the traditional first-in-first-out (FIFO) method. It also reduced the number of charges by 60.3%. In addition, the proposed algorithm is compared with a variety of cutting-edge algorithms and the results show that the objective function value is reduced by 8.7–11.2%, which verifies the superiority of the proposed algorithm and the feasibility of the model.

The time–energy uncertainty relation (TEUR) plays a fundamental role in quantum mechanics, as it allows the grasping of peculiar aspects of a variety of phenomena based on very general principles and symmetries of the theory. Using the Mandelstam–Tamm method, TEUR has recently been derived for neutrino oscillations by connecting the uncertainty in neutrino energy with the characteristic timescale of oscillations. Interestingly, the suggested interpretation of neutrinos as unstable-like particles has proved to naturally emerge in this context. Further aspects were later discussed in semiclassical gravity theory, by computing corrections to the neutrino energy uncertainty in a generic stationary curved spacetime, and in quantum field theory, where the clock observable turns out to be identified with the non-conserved flavor charge operator. In the present work, we give an overview on the above achievements. In particular, we analyze the implications of TEUR and explore the impact of gravitational and non-relativistic effects on the standard condition for neutrino oscillations.

The Stimulated Raman Adiabatic Passage, a very efficient technique for manipulating a quantum system based on the adiabatic theorem, is analyzed in the case where the manipulated physical system is interacting with a spin bath. The exploitation of the rotating wave approximation allows for the identification of a constant of motion, which simplifies both the analytical and the numerical treatment, which allows for evaluating the total unitary evolution of the system and bath. The efficiency of the population transfer process is investigated in several regimes, including the weak and strong coupling with the environment and the off-resonance. The formation of appropriate Zeno subspaces explains the lowering of the efficiency in the strong damping regime.

This paper analyzes classical and quantum physical systems from an optimal control perspective. Specifically, we explore whether their associated dynamics can correspond to an open- or closed-loop feedback evolution of a control problem. Firstly, for the classical regime, when it is viewed in terms of the theory of canonical transformations, we find that a closed-loop feedback problem can describe it. Secondly, for a quantum physical system, if one realizes that the Heisenberg commutation relations themselves can be considered constraints in a non-commutative space, then the momentum must depend on the position of any generic wave function. That implies the existence of a closed-loop strategy for the quantum case. Thus, closed-loop feedback is a natural phenomenon in the physical world. By way of completeness, we briefly review control theory and the classical mechanics of constrained systems and analyze some examples at the classical and quantum levels.

In this paper, we present a numerical scheme for addressing the unsteady asymmetric flows governed by the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations under a general boundary condition. We utilized the Finite Element Method (FEM) for spatial discretization and the fully implicit Euler scheme for time discretization. In addition to the theoretical analysis of the error in our numerical scheme, we introduced two types of a posteriori error indicators: one for time discretization and another for spatial discretization, aimed at effectively controlling the error. We established the equivalence between these estimators and the actual error. Furthermore, we conducted numerical simulations in two dimensions to assess the accuracy and effectiveness of our scheme.

Q-multi cubic Pythagorean fuzzy sets (Q-mCPFSs) are influential, effective and symmetrical for representing uncertain and imprecise information in decision making processes. Q-mCPFSs extend the concept of Q-multi fuzzy sets by introducing the notion of cubic Pythagorean membership functions, which provide a more flexible and accurate representation of uncertainty. First, we will introduce the concepts of Q-mPFSs and Q-mIVPFSs. With the combination of Q-mPFSs and Q-mIVPFSs, we will present the concept of Q-mCPFSs. Then, we propose two correlation coefficients for Q-mCPFSs. Furthermore, multi-criteria GDM methods using Q-mCPFSs will be discussed, highlighting their advantages in handling uncertain and imprecise information. Finally, we will provide an illustrative example, to demonstrate the effectiveness of Q-mCPFSs in decision making processes.The main contributions of the Q-mCPFS information expression, correlation coefficients and GDM methods in the Q-mCPFS setting of both uncertainty and certainty are thus highlighted in this study. These contributions provide valuable insights into the application of Q-mCPFSs in decision making processes, allowing decision makers to make more informed and effective choices. Additionally, the illustrative example serves as a practical demonstration of how these methods can be applied in real-world scenarios, further emphasizing their effectiveness and relevance.
