In this paper, we study dual quaternion, dual complex unit gain graphs, and their spectral properties in a unified frame of dual unit gain graphs. Unit dual quaternions represent rigid movements in the 3D space, and have wide applications in robotics and computer graphics. Dual complex numbers have found application in brain science recently. We establish the interlacing theorem for dual unit gain graphs, and show that the spectral radius of a dual unit gain graph is always not greater than the spectral radius of the underlying graph, and these two radii are equal if, and only if, the dual gain graph is balanced. By using dual cosine functions, we establish the closed form of the eigenvalues of adjacency and Laplacian matrices of dual complex and quaternion unit gain cycles. We then show the coefficient theorem holds for dual unit gain graphs. Similar results hold for the spectral radius of the Laplacian matrix of the dual unit gain graph too.

This article presents a novel approach to impact regulation of nonlinear vibrational responses in a beam flutter system subjected to harmonic excitation. This study introduces the use of a Nonlinear Integral Positive Position Feedback (NIPPF) controller for this purpose. This technique models the system as a three-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system representing the beam flutter, coupled with a first-order and a second-order filter representing the NIPPF controller. By applying perturbation analysis to the linearized system model, the authors obtain analytical solutions for the autonomous system with the controller. This study aims to reduce vibration amplitudes in a nonlinear dynamic system, specifically when 1:1 internal resonance occurs. The Routh–Hurwitz criterion is utilized to evaluate the system’s stability. Furthermore, the frequency–response curves (FRCs) exhibit symmetry across a range of parameter values. The findings highlight that the effectiveness of vibration suppression is directly related to the product of the NIPPF control signal after comparing with different controllers. Numerical simulations, conducted using the fourth-order Runge–Kutta method, validate the analytical solutions and demonstrate the system’s amplitude response. The strong correlation between the analytical and numerical results highlights the accuracy and dependability of the proposed method.

Lorentz invariance underlies special relativity, and the energy formula and relative velocity formula are well known to be invariant under a Lorentz transformation. Here, we determine the functional forms in terms of four arbitrary functions for those three dimensional velocity fields that are automatically invariant under the most general fully three-dimensional Lorentz transformation. For general three-dimensional motion, using rectangular Cartesian coordinates (x,y,z), we determine the first-order partial differential equations for the three velocity components u(x,y,z,t), v(x,y,z,t) and w(x,y,z,t) in the x−, y− and z−directions respectively. These partial differential equations and the associated partial differential relations connecting energy and momentum are fully compatible with the Lorentz-invariant energy–momentum relations and appear not to have been given previously in the literature. We determine the spatial and temporal dependence of the functional forms for those three-dimensional velocity fields that are automatically invariant under three-dimensional Lorentz transformations. An interesting special case gives rise to families of particle paths for which the magnitude of the velocity is the speed of light. This is indicative of the abundant possibilities existing in the “fast lane”.

The changes in cardiomyocyte action potentials are related to variations in intra- and extracellular ion concentrations. Abnormal ion concentrations can lead to irregular action potentials, subsequently affecting wave propagation in myocardial tissue and potentially resulting in the formation of spiral waves. Therefore, timely monitoring of ion concentration changes is essential. This study presents a novel machine learning classification model that predicts ion concentration changes based on action potential variation data. We conducted simulations using a single-cell model, generating a dataset of 850 action potential variations corresponding to different ion concentration changes. The model demonstrated excellent predictive performance, achieving an accuracy of 0.988 on the test set. Additionally, the causes of spontaneous spiral wave generation in the heart are insufficiently studied. This study presents a new mechanism whereby changes in extracellular potassium ion concentration leads to the spontaneous generation of spiral waves. By constructing composite myocardial tissue containing both myocardial and fibroblast cells, we observed that variations in extracellular potassium ion concentration can either trigger or inhibit cardiomyocyte excitation. We developed three tissue structures, and by appropriately adjusting the extracellular potassium ion concentration, we observed the spontaneous generation of single spiral waves, symmetrical spiral wave pairs, and asymmetrical double spiral waves.

In this paper, we study the local, global, and bifurcation properties of a planar nonlinear asymmetric discrete model of Ricker type that is derived from a Darwinian evolution strategy based on evolutionary game theory. We make a change of variables to both reduce the number of parameters as well as bring symmetry to the isoclines of the mapping. With this new model, we demonstrate the existence of a forward invariant and globally attracting set where all the dynamics occur. In this set, the model possesses two symmetric fixed points: the origin, which is always a saddle fixed point, and an interior fixed point that may be globally asymptotically stable. Moreover, we observe the presence of a supercritical Neimark–Sacker bifurcation, a phenomenon that is not present in the original non-evolutionary model.

In many manufacturing industries, the lifetime performance index CL is utilized to assess the manufacturing process performance for products following some lifetime distributions and subjecting them to progressive type I interval censoring. This paper aims to explore the sampling design required to achieve a specified level of significance and test power for products with lifetimes following the Exponentiated Frech’et distribution. Since lifetime distribution is an asymmetrical probability distribution, this investigation is related to the topic of asymmetrical probability distributions and applications in various fields. When the termination time is fixed but the number of intervals is variable, the optimal number of inspection intervals and sample sizes yielding the minimized total experimental costs are determined and tabulated. When the termination time is varying, the optimal number of inspection intervals, sample sizes, and equal interval lengths achieving the minimum total experimental costs are determined and tabulated. Optimal parameter values are displayed in tabular form for feasible applications for users. Additionally, a practical example is provided to illustrate how this sampling design can be used to collect data by using the optimal setup of parameters, followed by a testing procedure to assess the capability of the production process.

The chordal ring (CR) graphs are a well-known family of graphs used to model some interconnection networks for computer systems in which all nodes are in a cycle. Generalizing the CR graphs, in this paper, we introduce the families of chordal multi-ring (CMR), chordal ring mixed (CRM), and chordal multi-ring mixed (CMRM) graphs. In the case of mixed graphs, we can have edges (without direction) and arcs (with direction). The chordal ring and chordal ring mixed graphs are bipartite and 3-regular. They consist of a number r (for r≥1) of (undirected or directed) cycles with some edges (the chords) joining them. In particular, for CMR, when r=1, that is, with only one undirected cycle, we obtain the known families of chordal ring graphs. Here, we used plane tessellations to represent our chordal multi-ring graphs. This allowed us to obtain their maximum number of vertices for every given diameter. Additionally, we computationally obtained their minimum diameter for any value of the number of vertices. Moreover, when seen as a lift graph (also called voltage graph) of a base graph on Abelian groups, we obtained closed formulas for the spectrum, that is, the eigenvalue multi-set of its adjacency matrix.

Multiplication, division, and square root operations introduce significant challenges in digital signal processing (DSP) systems, traditionally requiring multiple operations that increase execution time and hardware complexity. This study presents a novel approach that leverages binary logarithms to perform these operations using only addition, subtraction, and shifts, enabling a unified hardware implementation—a marked departure from conventional methods that handle these operations separately. The proposed design, involving logarithm and antilogarithm calculations, exhibits an algebraically symmetrical pattern that further optimizes the processing flow. Additionally, this study introduces innovative log-domain correction terms specifically designed to minimize computation errors—a critical improvement over existing methods that often struggle with precision. Compared to standard hardware implementations, the proposed design significantly reduces hardware resource utilization and power consumption while maintaining high operational frequency.

The fractional advection–dispersion equation is used in groundwater hydrology for modeling the movements of contaminants/solute particles along with flowing groundwater at the seepage velocity in porous media. This model is used for the prediction of the transport of nonreactive dissolved contaminants in groundwater. This paper establishes the existence and the uniqueness of solutions represented as fractional bi-variate power series of some initial-value problems and boundary-value problems for the fractional advection–dispersion equation. Moreover, a method to approximate the solutions using fractional polynomials in two variables and to evaluate the errors in a suitable rectangle is designed. Illustrative examples showing the applicability of the theoretical results are presented.
