    Notes: A spontaneous pattern was found on the corroded surface of 1Cr18Ni9Ti stainless steel which was subjected to a crude oil containing naphthenic acid at temperature about 330 °C. The high regularity, the periodicity, and SO2 symmetry of the pattern imply that a spontaneous dissipative structure arose in this corrosion system. It was also found that the distribution of chemical elements on the corroded surface was in accordance with the morphologic pattern. A new theory, which is based on the linear perturbation method and in which the shift of boundary is considered, is proposed to characterize the formation of the large-scale spontaneous pattern, reveal the mechanism, and explain this phenomenon in the corrosion system.

    Notes: Abstract Two major tools for studying optimally controlled systems are Pontryagin's maximum principle and Bellman's dynamic programming, which involve the adjoint function, the Hamiltonian function, and the value function. The relationships among these functions are investigated in this work, in the case of deterministic, finite-dimensional systems, by employing the notions of superdifferential and subdifferential introduced by Crandall and Lions. Our results are essentially non-smooth versions of the classical ones. The connection between the maximum principle and the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation (in the viscosity sense) is thereby explained by virtue of the above relationship.

    Notes: Abstract This paper presents an extension of earlier research on heirarchical control of stochastic manufacturing systems with linear production costs. A new method is introduced to construct asymptotically optimal open-loop and feedback controls for manufacturing systems in which the rates of machine breakdown and repair are much larger than the rate of fluctuation in demand and rate of discounting of cost. This new approach allows us to carry out an asymptotic analysis on manufacturing systems with convex inventory/backlog and production costs as well as obtain error bound estimates for constructed open loop controls. Under appropriate conditions, an asymptotically optimal Lipschitz feedback control law is obtained.
