In this part you do not have to sketch the graph and you may even be given the sketch of the graph to start with. For a quadratic equation of the form \(y = k{(x - a)^2} + b\), the following diagram ...

Abstract: We investigate some particular classes of hybrid systems subject to a class of time delays; the time delays can be constant or time varying. For such systems, we present the corresponding ...

Abstract: This paper presents a method to solve the economic power dispatch problem with piecewise quadratic cost functions. The solution approach is hierarchical, which allows for decentral i zed ...

A quadratic equation is drawn as a curve on a set of axes. This type of curve is called a parabola and it is symmetrical. To draw the graph we need coordinates. We generate these coordinates by ...

We study the positive recurrence of piecewise Ornstein—Uhlenbeck (OU) diffusion processes, which arise from many-server queueing systems with phase-type service requirements. These diffusion processes ...
