Abstract:
Two of the most well-known nonlinear methods for investigating nonlinear dynamic processes in sciences and engineering are nonlinear variation of constants parameters and comparison method. Knowing the existence of solution process, these methods provide a very powerful tools for investigating variety of problems, for example, qualitative and quantitative properties of solutions, finding error estimates between solution processes of stochastic system and the corresponding nominal system, and inputs for the designing engineering and industrial problems.

Abstract:
This work focuses on three nonlinear relativistic equations: the symmetric Chiral field equation, Einstein's field equation for metrics with two commuting Killing vectors and Einstein's field equation for diagonal metrics that depend on three variables. The symmetric Chiral field equation is studied using the Zakharov-Mikhailov transform, with which its infinitely many local conservation laws are derived and its solitons on diagonal backgrounds are studied. It is also proven that it is equivalent to a novel equation that poses a fascinating similarity to the Sinh-Gordon equation. For the 1+1 E

We investigate the limits of localized linear control in spatially extended, nonlinear systems. Spatially extended, nonlinear systems can be found in virtually every field of engineering and science. An important category of such systems are fluid flows. Fluid flows play an important role in many commercial applications, for instance in the chemical, pharmaceutical and food-processing industries. Other important fluid flows include air- or water flows around cars, planes or ships. In all these systems, it is highly desirable to control the flow of the respective fluid. For instance

It is well established that many physical and chemical phenomena such as those in chemical reaction kinetics, laser cavities, rotating fluids, and in plasmas and in solid state physics are governed by nonlinear differential equations whose solutions are of variable character and even may lack regularities.

This thesis deals with problems arising in the study of nonlinear partial differential equations arising from many-body problems.

This method allows for the first time an explicit uniform-in-time bound on the rate of convergence in the hydrodynamic lim

This thesis discusses various properties of a number of differential equations which we will term "integrable". There are many definitions of this word, but we will confine ourselves to two possible characterisations — either an equation can be transformed by a suitable change of variables to a linear equation, or there exists an infinite number of conserved quantities associated with the equation that commute with each other via some Hamiltonian structure. Both of these definitions rely heavily on the concept of the symmetry of a differential equation, and so Chapters 1 and 2 introduce and ex

Limited analytic results exist for the occurrence of one family of solitary wave solutions for each of these equations.

By recognising the uncertainty present in every observation, including the initial condition, ɩ-shadowing distinguishes model sensitivity from model error; a perfect model will always be accepted as optimal.

Thus, in addition to traditional control systems, hybrid control systems involve supervising controllers which serve to coordinate the (sometimes competing) actions of the lower-level controllers.

For certain nonlinear Schroedinger equations there exist solutions which are called solitary waves. Addition of a potential $V$ changes the dynamics, but for small enough $||V||_{L^\infty}$ we can still obtain stability (and approximately Newtonian motion of the solitary wave's center of mass) for soliton-like solutions up to a finite time that depends on the size and scale of the potential $V$. Our method is an adaptation of the well-known Lyapunov method. For the sake of completeness, we also prove long-time stability of traveling solitons in the case $V=0$.
