New method for deriving approximate linear equations to complicated nonlinear problems

Researchers at the University of Tsukuba have created a new method for deriving approximate linear equations to complicated nonlinear problems. Using simulation results, they show that the model derived using their proposed pseudo-linearization approach yields responses that are closer to those of the well-known alternative method. This work can help scientists and engineers predict and more precisely apply feedback control over mechanical systems that are described with nonlinear equations.
