We develop the software tool for integration of dynamics models, which are inhomogeneous over mathematical properties and/or over requirements to the time step. The family of algorithms for the parallel computation of heterogeneous models with different time steps is offered. Analytical estimates and direct measurements of the error of these algorithms are made with reference to weakly coupled ODE sets. The advantage of the algorithms in the time cost as compared to accurate methods is shown.

The ring of Gaussian numbers is considered. The estimation of the module of some analogue of Weyl's trigonometrical sum with summation on Gaussian numbers is proved by methods of the analytical number theory. Multiplicative norm of Gaussian numbers is less than some integer.

The results of the numerical investigations of pulsating detonation wave propagation using the ENO-schemes with the approximation orders from the first to the fourth inclusively are presented. The results obtained with the use of the schemes of different approximation orders demonstrate that the pattern of detonation wave propagation in acetylene-air mixture corresponds to the analytical estimates both qualitatively and quantitatively. For the hydrogen-air mixture none of the schemes concerned provides the stable detonation wave propagation. The transition from the regular mode to the marginal one with the subsequent detonation breakup is observed.

The mathematical model of the magnetic memory cell MRAM with the in-plane anisotropy axis parallel to the edge of a free ferromagnetic layer (longitudinal anisotropy) has been constructed using approximation of uniform magnetization. The model is based on the Landau–Lifshits–Gilbert equation with the injection-current term in the Sloncžewski–Berger form. The set of ordinary differential equations for magnetization dynamics in a three-layered Co/Cu/Cu valve under the control of external magnetic field and spin-polarized current has been derived in the normal coordinate form. It was shown that the set of equations has two main stationary points on the anisotropy axis at any values of field and current. The stationary analysis of them has been performed. The algebraic equations for determination of additional stationary points have been derived. It has been shown that, depending on the field and current magnitude, the set of equations can have altogether two, four, or six stationary points symmetric in pairs relatively the anisotropy axis. The bifurcation diagrams for all the points have been constructed. The classification of the corresponding phase portraits has been performed. The typical trajectories were calculated numerically using Runge–Kutta method. The regions, where stable and unstable limit cycles exist, have been determined. It was found that the unstable limit cycles exist around the main stable equilibrium point on the axis that coincides with the anisotropy one, whereas the stable cycles surround the unstable additional points of equilibrium. The area of their existence was determined numerically. The new types of dynamics, such as accidental switching and non-complete switching, have been found. The threshold values of switching current and field have been obtained analytically. The estimations of switching times have been performed numerically.

We study polynomial solutions of gyrostat motion equations under potential and gyroscopic forces applied and of gyrostat motion equations in magnetic field taking into account Barnett–London effect. Mathematically, either of the above mentioned problems is described by a system of non-linear ordinary differential equations whose right hand sides contain fifteen constant parameters. These parameters characterize the gyrostat mass distribution, as well as potential and non-potential forces acting on gyrostat. We consider polynomial solutions of Steklov–Kovalevski–Gorjachev and Doshkevich classes. The structure of invariant relations for polynomial solutions shows that, as a rule, on top of the fifteen parameters mentioned one should add no less than twenty five problem parameters. In the process of solving such a multi-parametric problem in this paper we (in addition to analytic approach) apply numeric methods based on CAS. We break our studies of polynomial solutions existence into two steps. During the first step, we estimate maximal degrees of polynomials considered and obtain a non-linear algebraic system for parameters of differential equations and polynomial solutions. In the second step (using the above CAS software) we study the solvability conditions of the system obtained and investigate the conditions of the constructed solutions to be real.

We construct two new polynomial solutions for Kirchhoff–Poisson. The first one is described by the following property: the projection squares of angular velocity on the non-baracentric axes are the fifth degree polynomials of the angular velocity vector component of the baracentric axis that is represented via hypereliptic function of time. The second solution is characterized by the following: the first component of velocity conditions is a second degree polynomial, the second component is a polynomial of the third degree, and the square of the third component is the sixth degree polynomial of the auxiliary variable that is an inversion of the elliptic Legendre integral.

The third new partial solution we construct for gyrostat motion equations in the magnetic field with Barnett–London effect. Its structure is the following: the first and the second components of the angular velocity vector are the second degree polynomials, and the square of the third component is a fourth degree polynomial of the auxiliary variable which is found via inversion of the elliptic Legendre integral of the third kind.

All the solutions constructed in this paper are new and do not have analogues in the fixed point dynamics of a rigid body.

Recently, to describe various mathematical models of physical processes, fractional differential calculus has been widely used. In this regard, much attention is paid to partial differential equations of fractional order, which are a generalization of partial differential equations of integer order. In this case, various settings are possible.

Loaded differential equations in the literature are called equations containing values of a solution or its derivatives on manifolds of lower dimension than the dimension of the definitional domain of the desired function. Currently, numerical methods for solving loaded partial differential equations of integer and fractional orders are widely used, since analytical solving methods for solving are impossible. A fairly effective method for solving this kind of problem is the finite difference method, or the grid method.

We studied the initial-boundary value problem in the rectangle $\overline{D}=\{(x,\,t)\colon 0\leqslant x\leqslant l,\;0\leqslant t\leqslant T\}$ for the loaded differential heat equation with composition fractional derivative of Riemann – Liouville and Caputo – Gerasimov and with boundary conditions of the first and third kind. We have gotten an a priori assessment in differential and difference interpretations. The obtained inequalities mean the uniqueness of the solution and the continuous dependence of the solution on the input data of the problem. A difference analogue of the composition fractional derivative of Riemann – Liouville and Caputo –Gerasimov order $(2-\beta )$ is obtained and a difference scheme is constructed that approximates the original problem with the order $O\left(\tau +h^{2-\beta } \right)$. The convergence of the approximate solution to the exact one is proven at a rate equal to the order of approximation of the difference scheme.

The paper presents the results of theoretical investigation of the peculiarities of the quasi-harmonic signal’s phase statistical distribution, while the quasi-harmonic signal is formed as a result of the Gaussian noise impact on the initially harmonic signal. The revealed features of the phase distribution became a basis for the original technique elaborated for estimating the parameters of the initial, undistorted signal. It has been shown that the task of estimation of the initial phase value can be efficiently solved by calculating the magnitude of the mathematical expectation of the results of the phase sampled measurements, while for solving the task of estimation of the second parameter — the signal level respectively to the noise level — the dependence of the phase sampled measurements variance upon the sough-for parameter is proposed to be used. For solving this task the analytical formulas having been obtained in explicit form for the moments of lower orders of the phase distribution, are applied. A new approach to quasi-harmonic signal’s parameters estimation based on the method of moments has been developed and substantiated. In particular, the application of this method ensures a high-precision measuring the amplitude characteristics of a signal by means of the phase measurements only. The numerical results obtained by means of conducted computer simulation of the elaborated technique confirm both the theoretical conclusions and the method’s efficiency. The existence and the uniqueness of the task solution by the method of moments is substantiated. It is shown that the function that describes the dependence of the phase second central moment on the sough-for parameter, is a monotonically decreasing and thus the single-valued function. The developed method may be of interest for solving a wide range of scientific and applied tasks, connected with the necessity of estimation of both the signal level and the phase value, in such areas as data processing in systems of medical diagnostic visualization, radio-signals processing, radio-physics, optics, radio-navigation and metrology.

The using of determining the measure of interaction between channels when choosing the configuration structure of a control system for complex dynamic objects is considered in the work. The main methods for determining the measure of interaction between subsystems of complex control systems based on the methods RGA (Relative Gain Array), Dynamic RGA, HIIA (Hankel Interaction Index Array), PM (Participation matrix) are presented. When choosing a control configuration, simple configurations are preferable, as they are simple in design, maintenance and more resistant to failures. However, complex configurations provide higher performance control systems. Processes in large dynamic objects are characterized by a high degree of interaction between process variables. For the design of the control structure interaction measures are used, namely, the selection of the control structure and the decision on the configuration of the controller. The choice of control structure is to determine which dynamic connections should be used to design the controller. When a structure is selected, connections can be used to configure the controller. For large systems, it is proposed to pre-group the components of the vectors of input and output signals of the actuators and sensitive elements into sets in which the number of variables decreases significantly in order to select a control structure. A quantitative estimation of the decentralization of the control system based on minimizing the sum of the off-diagonal elements of the PM matrix is given. An example of estimation the measure of interaction between components of strong coupled subsystems and the measure of interaction between components of weak coupled subsystems is given. A quantitative estimation is given of neglecting the interaction of components of weak coupled subsystems. The construction of a weighted graph for visualizing the interaction of the subsystems of a complex system is considered. A method for the formation of the controllability gramian on the vector of output signals that is invariant to state vector transformations is proposed in the paper. An example of the decomposition of the stabilization system of the components of the flying vehicle angular velocity vector is given. The estimation of measures of the mutual influence of processes in the channels of control systems makes it possible to increase the reliability of the systems when accounting for the use of analytical redundancy of information from various devices, which reduces the mass and energy consumption. Methods for assessing measures of the interaction of processes in subsystems of control systems can be used in the design of complex systems, for example, motion control systems, orientation and stabilization systems of vehicles.

The article presents a method for linearization the effective function of material instantaneous deformation in order to generalize the torsional vibration equation to the case of nonlinearly deformable rheologically active shafts. It is considered layered and structurally heterogeneous, on average isotropic shafts made of nonlinearly viscoelastic components. The technique consists in determining the approximate shear modulus by minimizing the root-mean-square deviation in approximation of the effective diagram of instantaneous deformation.

The method allows to estimate analytically values of natural frequencies of layered and structurally heterogeneous nonlinearly viscoelastic shaft. This makes it possible to significantly reduce resources in vibration analysis, as well as to track changes in values of natural frequencies with changing geometric, physico-mechanical and structural parameters of shafts, which is especially important at the initial stages of modeling and design. In addition, the paper shows that only a pronounced nonlinearity of the effective state equation has an effect on the natural frequencies, and in some cases the nonlinearity in determining the natural frequencies can be neglected.

As equations of state of the composite material components, the article considers the equations of nonlinear heredity with instantaneous deformation functions in the form of the Prandtl’s bilinear diagrams. To homogenize the state equations of layered shafts, it is applied the Voigt’s hypothesis on the homogeneity of deformations and the Reuss’ hypothesis on the homogeneity of stresses in the volume of a composite body. Using these assumptions, effective secant and tangential shear moduli, proportionality limits, as well as creep and relaxation kernels of longitudinal, axial and transversely layered shafts are obtained. In addition, it is obtained the indicated effective characteristics of a structurally heterogeneous, on average isotropic shaft using the homogenization method previously proposed by the authors, based on the determination of the material deformation parameters by the rule of a mixture for the Voigt’s and the Reuss’ state equations.

The paper discusses the development and application of the accounting rectangular cell fullness method with material substance, in particular, a liquid, to increase the smoothness and accuracy of a finite-difference solution of hydrodynamic problems with a complex shape of the boundary surface. Two problems of computational hydrodynamics are considered to study the possibilities of the proposed difference schemes: the spatial-twodimensional flow of a viscous fluid between two coaxial semi-cylinders and the transfer of substances between coaxial semi-cylinders. Discretization of diffusion and convection operators was performed on the basis of the integro-interpolation method, taking into account taking into account the fullness of cells and without it. It is proposed to use a difference scheme, for solving the problem of diffusion – convection at large grid Peclet numbers, that takes into account the cell population function, and a scheme on the basis of linear combination of the Upwind and Standard Leapfrog difference schemes with weight coefficients obtained by minimizing the approximation error at small Courant numbers. As a reference, an analytical solution describing the Couette – Taylor flow is used to estimate the accuracy of the numerical solution. The relative error of calculations reaches 70% in the case of the direct use of rectangular grids (stepwise approximation of the boundaries), under the same conditions using the proposed method allows to reduce the error to 6%. It is shown that the fragmentation of a rectangular grid by 2–8 times in each of the spatial directions does not lead to the same increase in the accuracy that numerical solutions have, obtained taking into account the fullness of the cells. The proposed difference schemes on the basis of linear combination of the Upwind and Standard Leapfrog difference schemes with weighting factors of 2/3 and 1/3, respectively, obtained by minimizing the order of approximation error, for the diffusion – convection problem have a lower grid viscosity and, as a corollary, more precisely, describe the behavior of the solution in the case of large grid Peclet numbers.
