TL;DR: In this paper, the fixed-lag ensemble square root Kalman smoother and fixed-latency square root sigma-point Kalman smoothing were proposed to propagate correlations between on-line and online state variables.
Abstract: . The scheme to propagate correlations between on-line and off-line state variables in atmospheric inversions using the fixed-lag Kalman smoother proposed in Bruhwiler et al. (2005) is explained as a process to impose a balanced constraint on the on-line state variables. It is then extended to the fixed-lag ensemble square root Kalman smoother and fixed-lag square root sigma-point Kalman smoother, allowing us to treat nonlinear observation operators easily. Further, to constrain the posterior fluxes within their feasible ranges, the constrained fixed-lag Kalman smoother is presented and the variable transform technique is proposed for the other two smoothers. Comparisons between various methods and observational data are conducted using a synthetic inversion of atmospheric CH 4 fluxes. The results indicate that our developed methods are good alternatives to existing methods for conducting sequential inversion of atmospheric trace gases. It is also shown that the benefit to include the correlations between on-line and off-line state variables is case dependent.

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed analytical formulation of the unilateral contact boundary conditions with Coulomb's law of dry friction is first attempted and the quasi-static contact problem between 3D elastic bodies is studied thereafter.
Abstract: In this article a detailed analytical formulation of the unilateral contact boundary conditions with Coulomb's law of dry friction is first attempted and the quasi-static contact problem between 3-D elastic bodies is studied thereafter. Discretizing the bodies by the Finite Element Method, introducing fictitious contact bonds and using the concept of the equivalent structural system, an incremental Nonlinear Complementarity Problem is finally formulated. Then, using additional simplifying assumptions, this problem can be transformed into an incremental Linear Complementarity Problem.

TL;DR: Based on smoothing techniques, the authors proposed some new methods to solve linear complementarity problems, which avoided any parameter management while ensuring good theoretical convergence results. But the most severe difficulty that awaits us is the nondifferentiability of the complementarity conditions.
Abstract: Based on smoothing techniques, we propose some new methods to solve linear complementarity problems (LCP). The idea of these new algorithms takes inspiration from interior point methods. The technique that we propose avoids any parameter management while ensuring good theoretical convergence results. These are validated by extensive numerical tests, in which we compare the new methods to several other classical methods. Our objective is to work out an efficient and robust numerical method to solve linear complementarity problems. The most severe difficulty that awaits us is the non-differentiability of the complementarity conditions.

TL;DR: In this article, a self-adaptive projection and contraction method for the linear complementarity problem (LCP) is proposed. But the method is not suitable for the case of the linear complearity problem with a fixed number of nodes.
Abstract: In this paper we develop a self-adaptive projection and contraction method for the linear complementarity problem (LCP). This method improves the practical performance of the modified projection and contraction method in [10] by adopting a self-adaptive technique. The global convergence of our new method is proved under mild assumptions. Our numerical tests clearly demonstrate the necessity and effectiveness of our proposed method.

TL;DR: This chapter gives an overview of complementarity problems with a special focus on the extended linear complementarity problem (ELCP) and its applications in analysis and control of discrete-event systems such as traffic signal controlled intersections, manufacturing systems, railway networks, etc.
Abstract: In this chapter, we give an overview of complementarity problems with a special focus on the extended linear complementarity problem (ELCP) and its applications in analysis and control of discrete-event systems such as traffic signal controlled intersections, manufacturing systems, railway networks, etc. We start by giving an introduction to the (regular) linear complementarity problem (LCP). Next, we discuss some extensions, with a particular emphasis on the ELCP, which can be considered to be the most general linear extension of the LCP. We then discuss some algorithms to compute one or all solutions of an ELCP. Next, we present a link between the ELCP and max-plus equations. This is then the basis for some applications of the ELCP in analysis and model-based predictive control of a special class of discrete-event systems. We also show that — although the general ELCP is NP-hard — the ELCP-based control problem can be transformed into a linear programming problem, which can be solved in polynomial time.
