Optimal preparation and reachable-state constraints in the Mpemba effect
C. Ríos-Monje, A. Patrón-Castro, C. A. Plata +2
The Mpemba effect, whereby an initially hotter system relaxes faster than a colder one towards a common final state, is often analysed within the kinetic framework by assuming non-…
Time-optimal synchronisation to self-sustained oscillations under bounded control
C. Ríos-Monje, C. A. Plata, D. Guéry-Odelin +1
Incorporating force bounds is crucial for realistic control implementations in physical systems. Here, we investigate the fastest possible synchronisation of a Liénard system to it…
Active charge and discharge of a capacitor: scaling solution and energy optimization
S. Faure, C. A. Plata, A. Prados +1
Capacitors are ubiquitous in electronic and electrical devices. In this article, we study -- both theoretically and experimentally -- the charging and discharging of capacitors usi…
Optimal synchronisation to a limit cycle
C. Ríos-Monje, C. A. Plata, D. Guéry-Odelin +1
In the absence of external forcing, all trajectories on the phase plane of the van der Pol oscillator tend to a closed, periodic, trajectory -- the limit cycle -- after infinite ti…
