Artificial Intelligence–Assisted Reduced-Order Modeling and Stability Control in Granular Couette Flow
Abstract: This study develops a reduced-order and stability-aware modeling framework for dense granular Couette flow by integrating continuum mechanics, bifurcation analysis, and data-driven stability estimation. Starting from coupled governing equations for momentum, granular temperature, and microstructural evolution, the system is nondimensionalized and reduced using a Galerkin projection consistent with shear-driven boundary conditions. This yields a low-dimensional nonlinear dynamical system that preserves the essential coupling between velocity, fluctuation energy, and structural relaxation. …

Effect of Adaptation Gain in Model Reference Adaptive Control
Abstract: Normally, the conventional controllers are used to get desired response when noise and disturbances are there but they cannot give desired response when the system parameters change. Due to the disturbances or any external effects, the system parameters may change. Dynamical system may face this type of problem because its dynamics may change with time. So, adaptive control can be used for this type of problem. Adaptive controller has some …
