Multistability, a common phenomenon in dynamical systems in general and in musical instruments in particular, corresponds to the coexistence of several stable regimes for a given set of parameters. When a system is multistable, which regime is observed depends on the initial conditions on the state variables, and therefore relates to the basins of attraction. Here we consider a simple model of reed musical instrument. A bifurcation analysis shows that the system is bistable on a range of the blowing pressure, which is one of the main control parameters for the musician. In the bistability region, the boundary between basins of attraction is computed for the classical case of constant control parameters in the one hand, and for saturating ramps of the blowing pressure on the other hand. These profiles of the blowing pressure are chosen as prototypical representations of the so-called attack transients of the blowing pressure, during which the musician starts to blow in the instrument to create a musical note from silence. Attack transients are known to be of crucial importance in a musical context, yet mostly overlooked in physical models of the musician{\textendash}instrument system. The separatrix between basins of attraction is computed numerically by combining time-domain simulations with a machine learning technique relying on support vector machine. Our results demonstrate that attack transients of the blowing pressure significantly affect the practical observability of the different stable regimes, suggesting that they might be used by musicians to navigate between basins. From a more general point of view, these results relate to rate-induced tipping phenomena and might therefore be of interest beyond the particular case of musical instruments.

Computational optimization algorithms coupled with acoustic models of wind instruments provide instrument makers with an opportunity to explore new designs. Specifically, they enable the automatic discovery of geometries exhibiting desired resonance characteristics. In this paper, the design optimization of woodwind instruments with complex geometrical features (e.g., non-cylindrical bore profile and side holes with various radii and chimney heights) is investigated. Optimal geometric designs are searched so that their acoustic input impedance has peaks with specific target frequencies and amplitudes. However, woodwind instruments exhibit complex input impedance whose features, such as resonances, might have non-smooth evolution with respect to design variables, thus hampering gradient-based optimization. For this reason, this paper introduces new formulations of the impedance characteristics (resonance frequencies and amplitudes) using a regularized unwrapped angle of the reflection function. The approach is applied to an illustrative instrument subjected to geometric constraints similar to the ones encountered by manufacturers (a key-less pentatonic clarinet with two-registers). Three optimization problems are considered, demonstrating a strategy to simultaneously adjust several impedance characteristics on all fingerings.

Nonlinear Energy Sinks (NESs) are a promising technique for passively reducing the amplitude of vibrations. Through nonlinear stiffness properties, a NES is able to passively and irreversibly absorb energy. Unlike the traditional Tuned Mass Damper (TMD), NESs do not require a specific tuning and absorb energy over a wider range of frequencies. Nevertheless, they are still only efficient over a limited range of excitations. In order to mitigate this limitation and maximize the efficiency range, this work investigates the optimization of multiple NESs configured in parallel. It is well known that the efficiency of a NES is extremely sensitive to small perturbations in loading conditions or design parameters. In fact, the efficiency of a NES has been shown to be nearly discontinuous in the neighborhood of its activation threshold. For this reason, uncertainties must be taken into account in the design optimization of NESs. In addition, the discontinuities require a specific treatment during the optimization process. In this work, the objective of the optimization is to maximize the expected value of the efficiency of NESs in parallel. The optimization algorithm is able to tackle design variables with uncertainty (e.g., nonlinear stiffness coefficients) as well as aleatory variables such as the initial velocity of the main system. The optimal design of several parallel NES configurations for maximum mean efficiency is investigated. Specifically, NES nonlinear stiffness properties, considered random design variables, are optimized for cases with 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 10 NESs in parallel. The distributions of efficiency for the optimal parallel configurations are compared to distributions of efficiencies of non-optimized NESs. It is observed that the optimization enables a sharp increase in the mean value of efficiency while reducing the corresponding variance, thus leading to more robust NES designs.

Nonlinear energy sinks (NES) are a promising technique to achieve vibration mitigation. Through nonlinear stiffness properties, NES are able to passively and irreversibly absorb energy. Unlike the traditional Tuned Mass Damper (TMD), NES absorb energy from a wide range of frequencies. Many studies have focused on NES behavior and dynamics, but few have addressed the optimal design of NES. Design considerations of NES are of prime importance as it has been shown that NES dynamics exhibit an acute sensitivity to uncertainties. In fact, the sensitivity is so marked that NES efficiency is near-discontinuous and can switch from a high to a low value for a small perturbation in design parameters or loading conditions. This article presents an approach for the probabilistic design of NES which accounts for random design and aleatory variables as well as response discontinuities. In order to maximize the mean efficiency, the algorithm is based on the identification of regions of the design and aleatory space corresponding to markedly different NES efficiencies. This is done through a sequence of approximated sub-problems constructed from clustering, Kriging approximations, a support vector machine, and Monte-Carlo simulations. The refinement of the surrogates is performed locally using a generalized max-min sampling scheme which accounts for the distributions of random variables. The sampling scheme also makes use of the predicted variance of the Kriging surrogates for the selection of aleatory variables values. The proposed algorithm is applied to three example problems of varying dimensionality, all including an aleatory excitation applied to the main system. The stochastic optima are compared to NES optimized deterministically.

This article presents a study of three validation metrics used for the selection of optimal parameters of a support vector machine (SVM) classifier in the case of nonseparable and unbalanced datasets. This situation is often encountered when the data is obtained experimentally or clinically. The three metrics selected in this work are the area under the ROC curve (AUC), accuracy, and balanced accuracy. These validation metrics are tested using computational data only, which enables the creation of fully separable sets of data. This way, non-separable datasets, representative of a real-world problem, can be created by projection onto a lower dimensional sub-space. The knowledge of the separable dataset, unknown in real-world problems, provides a reference to compare the three validation metrics using a quantity referred to as the {\textquotedblleft}weighted likelihood{\textquotedblright}. As an application example, the study investigates a classification model for hip fracture prediction. The data is obtained from a parameterized finite element model of a femur. The performance of the various validation metrics is studied for several levels of separability, ratios of unbalance, and training set sizes.
