technique. It also helps reducing the computations regarding the observer design parameters. Illustrative
numerical examples with simulation results are also included.

ABSTRACT : In this paper, the simulation of a double pendulum with numerical solutions are discussed. The double pendulums are arranged in such a way that in the static equilibrium, one of the pendulum takes the vertical position, while the second pendulum is in a horizontal position and rests on the pad. Characteristic positions and angular velocities of both pendulums, as well as their energies at each instant of time are presented. Obtained results proved to be in accordance with the motion of the real physical system. The differentiation of the double pendulum result in four first order equations mapping the movement of the system.
Power system static state estimation using Kalman filter algorithmPower System Operation
State estimation of power system is an important tool for operation, analysis and forecasting of electric
power system. In this paper, a Kalman filter algorithm is presented for static estimation of power system state
variables. IEEE 14 bus system is employed to check the accuracy of this method. Newton Raphson load flow study
is first carried out on our test system and a set of data from the output of load flow program is taken as measurement
input. Measurement inputs are simulated by adding Gaussian noise of zero mean. The results of Kalman estimation
are compared with traditional Weight Least Square (WLS) method and it is observed that Kalman filter algorithm is
numerically more efficient than traditional WLS method. Estimation accuracy is also tested for presence of parametric
error in the system. In addition, numerical stability of Kalman filter algorithm is tested by considering inclusion of
zero mean errors in the initial estimates.

Some DFT implementations (such as Octopus) attempt to describe the molecular
Kohn–Sham orbitals on a real-space grid.
• A 3D simulation box is chosen together with a grid spacing, for example 0.5 a0. Then,
a grid in 3D is constructed and the SCF equations are solved on the grid.
• This is different from an MO-LCAO expansion in numerical AOs!
• Pseudopotentials are inevitable for real-space grid methods, but they are not required
when numerical AOs are used.
• A great advantage of the use of numerical AOs as in DMol3 is that the method is free
of the basis-set superposition error (BSSE).
• Because exact atomic orbitals are used, the atoms in a molecule cannot improve
their orbitals artificially using basis functions from other atoms.
The numerical solution of Huxley equation by the use of two finite difference methods is done. The first one is the explicit scheme and the second one is the Crank-Nicholson scheme. The comparison between the two methods showed that the explicit scheme is easier and has faster convergence while the Crank-Nicholson scheme is more accurate. In addition, the stability analysis using Fourier (von Neumann) method of two schemes is investigated. The resulting analysis showed that the first scheme
is conditionally stable if, r ≤ 2 − aβ∆t , ∆t ≤ 2(∆x)2 and the second
scheme is unconditionally stable.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

3. Origin
Most of the solutions to linear functional equations can be
interpreted in terms of projections onto sub spaces of
functional spaces. For computational reasons, these sub-
spaces must be finite-dimensional, For theoretical work, they
may be infinite dimensional. The idea of transforming linear
functional equation to a matrix equation is relatively old.
Galerkin (1915), Russian mechanical engineer developed his
method, carrying its name in 1915.

Earlier expansion and testing functions were chosen as same in
Galerkin’s and Rayleigh Ritz’s variational techniques but Harrington

for computational conveniences still achieving the solution

The method owes its name to the process of taking moments by

5. • Most of the EM problems can be expressed under the form of a linear
functional equation . One generally classifies EM problems in two
categories: -deterministic and eigen value problems.
• Deterministic:-linear functional equation enables one to determine
the electromagnetic quantity directly
• Eigen-value:-parameters for which non-trivial solutions exist are
found first. Then the corresponding solutions called eigen solutions
are determined.
• MOM can handle both the kinds of problem. Most EM problems can be
stated as an inhomogeneous eqn.
• L : differential, integral or integro-differential operator
• g: known excitation or source function
• : unknown function to be determined
Procedure involves four steps:-
1. Derivation of the appropriate integral equation (IE),
2. Conversion (discretization) of the IE into a matrix equation using
basis (or expansion) functions and weightings (testing) functions,
3. Evaluation of the matrix elements, and
4. Solving the matrix equation and obtaining the parameters of
interest.

The method of moments may also be applied to the eigen value equations
(not taken up here will be taken in last if time permits).

MacMillan, 1968.
The name method of moments derives from the original terminology that
is the nth moment of f. When xn is replaced by an arbitrary wn, we
continue to call the integral a moment of f. the name method of weighted
residuals derives from the following interpretation. If (3) represents an
approximate equality, then the difference between the exact and approximate
Lf s is
(12)
which is called residual, r and the inner products are called weighted
residuals. Now (4) is obtained by setting all weighted residuals equal to zero.

12. 1. Eigenfunction method
The eigenfunction method is the special case for which the expansion
functions are taken to be eigen functions of L, and the testing functions,
eigen functions of the adjoint operator, La. Its difficult to find these eigen
functions, but once known the solution of Lf=g is simple.
In this case, the matrix [l] of (5) is diagonal, with elements equal to the
eigen values, i , when the eigen functions are normalized or
bioorthogonalized. The inverse [l]-1 then has diagonal elements and the
moment solution (11) reduces to eigenfunctions solutions.
2. Galerkin’s method
When the domains of L and La are the same, we can chose wi = fi, and
the specialization is known as Galerkin’s method. When L is self-adjoint,
this has advantage of making [l] a symmetric matrix. Since the solution of
symmetric matrices is easy compared to non-symmetric, particularly for
eigen value problems, this can be a theoretical advantage. However, for
computations, the evaluation of the elements of [l] may be difficult when
Galerkin’s method is used and this outweighs the advantage of keeping [l]
symmetric.

13. 3. Point Matching or Collocation method
The simplest specialization of MOM. This basically involves satisfying the
approximate representation (3) at discrete points in the region of interest.
In terms of MOM, this is formally equivalent to choosing the testing
functions to be Dirac delta functions. The integration represented by inner
products now become trivial, which is the major advantage of this method.
This solution is sometimes sensitive to the points at which equation is
matched, which is major disadvantage of the method.
4. Least squares Method
Another possibility is that of minimizing the length or norm of the residual,
given by (12). If the usual inner product is used, the procedure is called a
least squares method. It is evident from (12) that minimization of r is
equivalent to finding the shortest distance from g to the subspace generated
by the Lfj, j=1,2,3…. Hence, by the projection theorem, the least norm is
obtained by taking the wi=Lfi in the method of moments.

• To solve numerically, unknown charge distribution (y’) is
represented by unknown terms (basis functions), while an
represents constant but unknown coefficients. Basis functions are
chosen to accurately represent the unknown charge distribution.
• Eq. (2) is valid everywhere on the wire. By enforcing (2) at N
discrete but different points on the wire, (2) is reduced to N
linearly independent algebraic equations, given by (6a).
• This set is generalized by (7)-(7c), then solved for unknown
using matrix inversion techniques. Since the system of n linear
equations each with N unknowns, as given by (6a)-(8), was
derived by applying the boundary condition (const 1-V potential)
at n discrete points on the wire, the technique is referred to as
the Point –Matching (or Collocation) Method.

24. • For time-harmonic fields, two of the most popular integral
equations are the Electric Field Integral Equations (EFIE) and
Magnetic Field Integral Equations (MFIE).
• EFIE:- enforces the boundary condition on the tangential
components of electric field
– Valid for both closed and open surfaces
• MFIE:- enforces the boundary condition on the tangential
components of magnetic
field
– Valid for both closed surfaces
• These integral equations can be used to solve both radiation
and scattering problems.
• For radiation problems, especially wire antennas two popular IEs
are Pocklington IE and Hallén IEs.

• Pocklington integro-differential equation (PIE) and Hallén’s
integral equation (HIE) can be used most conveniently to find
the current distribution on conducting wires.
• HIE is usually restricted to the use of a delta-gap voltage source
model at feed of a wire antenna. It requires inversion of an N+1
order matrix (where N is no. of divisions of wire)
• PIE is more general and applicable to many types of feed sources
(through alteration in of its excitation function or excitation matrix)
including a magnetic frill. It requires inversion of N order matrix.
• For thin wires, current distribution is usually assumed to be of
sinusoidal form. For finite diameter wire, (usually diameter d
>0.05) In this sinusoidal approximation is not accurate and hence
IE needed to solved to have correct picture.

• Valid for scatterer as well as an antenna
• Assume an incident wave impinges on the surface of a conducting
wire, as shown, and is referred as incident electric field Ei(r). (When
the wire is an antenna, incident field is produced by the field at the
gap (will be discussed later in Hallen IE)).
• Part of the incident field impinges on wire and indices an surface
current density Js (A/m). The induced current density re-radiates
and produces an electric field that is referred to as scattered electric
field Es(r).
• Therefore at any point in space the total Electric field Ei(r)is sum of
the incident and the scattered fields.
(12)
• When the observation point is moved on the surface of the wire
(r=rs) and the wire is perfectly conducting, total tangential electric
field vanishes. In cylindrical coordinates, the electric field radiated by
the dipole has a radial component (E) and a tangential component
(Ez). Therefore on the surface of wire (12) reduces to

current density Js is given by

is needed , hence,

• Neglecting edge effects we can write
(16)
If the wire is very thin, the current density Jz is not a function of the
azimuthal angle, and we can write it as
(17)
where Iz(z’) is assumed to be an equivalent filament line-source
current located a radial distance =a from the z-axis, as shown in
next figure. Thus (16) reduces to

Eq. (22) is called as Pocklington’s Integral Equation. It can be used to
determine the equivalent filamentary line-source current of the wire, and
thus current density on the wire, by knowing the incident field on the
surface of the wire.

• Iz(z’) represents filamentary line source
current located on the surface of the wire
(see Fig.3b) and its obtained by knowing
the incident electric field on the surface of
the wire.
• Solution can be had using point matching
technique using matching points at the
interior of the wire, esp. along the axis
(see Fig.3a).
• By reciprocity, the configuration of Fig. 4a
is analogous to Fig. 4b where equivalent
filamentary line-source current is assumed
along the centre axis of the wire and
matching points are selected on the
surface of the wire.Fig.4

32. • Referring to Fig. 3a, let us assume that the length of the cylinder is
much larger than its radius (l >> a) and its radius , a<<, so that
effects of the end faces of the cylinder can be neglected. Therefore
the boundary conditions for a wire with infinite conductivity are those
of vanishing total tangential E fields on the surface of the cylinder and
vanishing currents at the ends of the cylinder [ Iz (z’=±l /2)=0].
• Since only an electric current density flows on the cylinder and it is
directed along the z-axis (J=âz Jz), then A=âz Az (z’), which for smaller
radii is assumed to be a function of z’.

• Assumption that the wire is symmetrically fed by a voltage
source and the element acts as dipole antenna.
• Two methods to model the excitation at all points on the surface
of the dipole: -delta gap excitation and equivalent magnetic ring
current (or magnetic frill generator)

(33)
where F is known function g is response function and h is a known
excitation function. For (22) , F is an integro-differential operator while for
(24) and (27), its an integral operator.
Objective:- To determine g once F and h are specified.
Moment Method requires that the unknown response function may be
expanded as linear combination of N terms and written as
(34)
an are unknown constants and gn are basis or expansion functions. Hence
as explained in Part I of tut we get
(35)
The basis fns gn are chosen so that each F(gn)can be evaluated
conveniently, preferably in closed form or at the least numerically.
Task is to find unknowns an.
-Expansion of (35) leads to one equation with N unknowns, not sufficient
to determine N unknowns an. Its necessary to have N linearly
independent equations.
-This can be done:-evaluating (35) (applying B.C.) at n different points.
This is point matching (or collocation). Doing this (35) becomes

The basis functions are chosen so that they have the ability to

while minimizing the computational effort.
Do not chose basis with smoother properties than unknowns being
represented.
Classification:-
1. Sub domain functions: - non-zero only over a part of domain of
the function g(x’); its domain is the surface of the structure. They
may be used without prior knowledge of the nature of function
they must represent unlike entire-domain functions.
2. Entire-domain functions:-exists over the entire domain of the
unknown function. Requires a priori knowledge of the nature of
the unknown function.

which is a scalar function satisfying

(44b)
(44c)
(44d)
• Inner product may be typically defined as is
(45)
where w are weighting (testing) functions and S is the surface of structure
being analyzed. This technique is better known as method of moments.
•Point Matching (or collocation) method is a numerical technique whose solution
satisfy the em boundary conditions only at discrete points, in between it may not
satisfy, and the difference is called as residual. For half-wavelength dipole typical
residual is shown in Fig. 10a and for sinusoid –Galerkin’s method its shown in Fig.
10b (an improved one).

45. • To minimize the residual in such a way that its overall average over
the entire structure approaches zero, the method of weighted
residuals is utilized in conjunction with the inner product. This
technique, called as Method of Moments, doesn’t lead to a vanishing
residual at every point on the surface of a conductor, but it forces it
the boundary conditions to be satisfied in an average sense over the
entire surface.
• MoM technique:- We define a set of N weighting (or testing)
functions, {wn}=w1,w2,…wN in the domain of operator F. Forming
inner product, (35) yields

• The choice of weighting fns is imp. In that the elements of {wn}
must be linearly independent, so that the N equations in (46) will
be linearly independent . Further it will generally be advantageous
to choose weighting fns. that minimize the computations required
to evaluate the inner products.
• The condition of linear independence between elements and the
advantage of computational simplicity are also important
characteristics of basis functions. Because of this similar types of
functions are used for both expansion and weighting functions.
• When wn=gn, its called Galerkin’s Technique.
• Note:- N2 terms to be evaluated in (47a). Each requires usually two
integrations: at least one to evaluate each F(gn) and one to perform
inner products of (45). This involves vast amount of computation
time.
• There is however a unique set of weighting functions that reduce
the number of required integrations-Dirac Delta Function
(49)
• where p specifies a position w.r.t. some reference (origin) and pm
represents a point at which the boundary condition is enforced.
(45) and (49) reduces (46) to
(50)
47. • Hence only integration left specified by F(gn). This simplification
won’t work with other weighting functions.
• Physically, the use of Dirac Delta fn. is seen as relaxation of B.C.
so that they are enforced only at discrete points on the surface of
the structure, hence called point matching.
