New Robust Exponential Stability Criterion for Uncertain Neutral Systems with Discrete and Distributed Time-Varying Delays and Nonlinear Perturbations

We investigate the problem of robust exponential stability for uncertain neutral systems with discrete and distributed time-varying delays and nonlinear perturbations. Based on the combination of descriptor model transformation, decomposition technique of coefficient matrix, and utilization of zero equation and new Lyapunov functional, sufficient conditions for robust exponential stability are obtained and formulated in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). The new stability conditions are less conservative and more general than some existing results

Improved Delay-Dependent Stability Conditions for MIMO Networked Control Systems with Nonlinear Perturbations

This paper provides improved time delay-dependent stability criteria for multi-input and multi-output (MIMO) network control systems (NCSs) with nonlinear perturbations. Without the stability assumption on the neutral operator after the descriptor approach, the new proposed stability theory is less conservative than the existing stability condition. Theoretical proof is given in this paper to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed stability condition

In the above titled paper originally published in vol. 54, no. 1, pp. 147-152) of IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, there were some typographical errors in inequalities. Corrections are presented here

Delay-dependent stabilization of stochastic interval delay systems with nonlinear disturbances

This is the post print version of the article. The official published version can be obtained from the link below - Copyright 2007 Elsevier Ltd.In this paper, a delay-dependent approach is developed to deal with the robust stabilization problem for a class of stochastic time-delay interval systems with nonlinear disturbances. The system matrices are assumed to be uncertain within given intervals, the time delays appear in both the system states and the nonlinear disturbances, and the stochastic perturbation is in the form of a Brownian motion. The purpose of the addressed stochastic stabilization problem is to design a memoryless state feedback controller such that, for all admissible interval uncertainties and nonlinear disturbances, the closed-loop system is asymptotically stable in the mean square, where the stability criteria are dependent on the length of the time delay and therefore less conservative. By using Itô's differential formula and the Lyapunov stability theory, sufficient conditions are first derived for ensuring the stability of the stochastic interval delay systems. Then, the controller gain is characterized in terms of the solution to a delay-dependent linear matrix inequality (LMI), which can be easily solved by using available software packages. A numerical example is exploited to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design procedure.This work was supported in part by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) of the UK under Grant GR/S27658/01, the Nuffield Foundation of the UK under Grant NAL/00630/G, and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany

Stability Analysis of Uncertain Temperature control system with two additive delays and nonlinear perturbation

In this paper, the problem of robust delay-dependent stability criterion is considered for a class of linear continuous time heat exchanger system with constant additive state-delays and bounded nonlinear perturbations using Lyapunov-Krasovskii (LK) functional approach.  In the proposed delay-dependent stability analysis, the time-delays are considered to be time-invariant.  In the proposed delay-dependent stability analysis, a candidate LK functional is considered, and take the time-derivative of the functional is bounded using the Jenson integral inequality.  The proposed stability analysis finally culminates into a stability criterion in LMI framework.  The effectiveness of the proposed stability criterion is illustrated using a network controlled temperature control of heat exchanger syste

Stability Analysis for Markovian Jump Neutral Systems with Mixed Delays and Partially Known Transition Rates

The delay-dependent stability problem is studied for Markovian jump neutral systems with partial information on transition probabilities, and the considered delays are mixed and model dependent. By constructing the new stochastic Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, which combined the introduced free matrices with the analysis technique of matrix inequalities, a sufficient condition for the systems with fully known transition rates is firstly established. Then, making full use of the transition rate matrix, the results are obtained for the other case, and the uncertain neutral Markovian jump system with incomplete transition rates is also considered. Finally, to show the validity of the obtained results, three numerical examples are provided
