The system under study involves stochastics, state time-delay, parameter uncertainties, possible actuator failures and unknown nonlinear disturbances, which are often encountered in practice and the sources of instability. Our attention is focused on the design of linear state feedback memoryless controllers such that, for all admissible uncertainties as well as actuator failures occurring among a prespecified subset of actuators, the plant remains stochastically exponentially stable in mean square, independent of the time delay. Sufficient conditions are proposed to guarantee the desired robust reliable exponential stability despite possible actuator failures, which are in terms of the solutions to algebraic Riccati inequalities. An illustrative example is exploited to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed design approac

Asymptotic mean-square stability analysis and simulations of a stochastic model for the human immune response with memory

In this thesis we extended a deterministic model for the Human Immune response, consisting of a non-linear system of differential equations with distributed time delay, which was introduced by Beretta, Kirshner and Marino in 2007, by incorporating stochastic perturbations with multiplicative noise around equilibria of the deterministic model. Our aim is to study the robustness of the equilibria of the deterministic model for the human immune response system with respect to fluctuations due to considering the human body as a noisy enviroment. We do this by analysing the asymptotic mean square stability of the equilibria of our stochastic model. Our work could be divided roughly into two parts. In the first part we analyse the stability of a general non linear system of stochastic differential equations with distributed memory terms by studying the stability properties of the linearisation in the first approximation. First of all we state, using Halanay's inequalities, comparison results useful in the investigation of exponential mean square stability of linear stochastic delay differential systems with distributed memory terms. Then we provide conditions under which asymptotic mean square stability of a nonlinear system of stochastic delay differential equations is implied by the exponential mean square stability of linearised stochastic delay system in the first approximation. In the second part we apply the theoretical results obtained in the first part to investigate the stochastic stability properties of the equilibria of our stochastic model of human immune response. The theoretical results are illustrated by numerical simulations and an uncertainty and sensivity analysis of our stochastic model, suggesting that the deterministic model is robust with respect to the stochastic perturbations

Stabilization of nonlinear hybrid stochastic delay systems by feedback control based on discrete-time state and mode observations

This paper is concerned with the stabilization problem for nonlinear stochastic delay systems with Markovian switching by feedback control based on discrete-time state and mode observations. By constructing an efficient Lyapunov functionals, we establish the sufficient stabilization criteria not only in the sense of exponential stability (both the mean-square stability and the almost sure stability) but also in other sense – that of H∞ stability and asymptotic stability. Meanwhile, the upper bound on the duration τ between two consecutive state and mode observations is obtained. Numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of our theoretical results

The nonlinear time-delay stochastic systems may switch from one to the others according to the behavior of a Markov chain. The purpose of the problem addressed is to design a nonlinear full-order filter such that the dynamics of the estimation error is guaranteed to be stochastically exponentially stable in the mean square. Both filter analysis and synthesis problems are investigated. Sufficient conditions are established for the existence of the desired exponential filters, which are expressed in terms of the solutions to a set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). The explicit expression of the desired filters is also provided. A simulation example is given to illustrate the design procedures and performances of the proposed method

The jumping parameters considered here are generated from a continuous-time discrete-state homogeneous Markov process, and the parameter uncertainties appearing in the state and output equations are real, time dependent, and norm bounded. The time-delay and the nonlinear disturbances are assumed to be unknown. The purpose of the problem under investigation is to design a linear, delay-free, uncertainty-independent state estimator such that, for all admissible uncertainties as well as nonlinear disturbances, the dynamics of the estimation error is stochastically exponentially stable in the mean square, independent of the time delay. We address both the filtering analysis and synthesis issues, and show that the problem of exponential filtering for the class of uncertain time-delay jump systems with nonlinear disturbances can be solved in terms of the solutions to a set of linear (quadratic) matrix inequalities. A numerical example is exploited to demonstrate the usefulness of the developed theory

Multi-condition of stability for nonlinear stochastic non-autonomous delay differential equation

A nonlinear stochastic differential equation with the order of nonlinearity higher than one, with several discrete and distributed delays and time varying coefficients is considered. It is shown that the sufficient conditions for exponential mean square stability of the linear part of the considered nonlinear equation also are sufficient conditions for stability in probability of the initial nonlinear equation. Some new sufficient condition of stability in probability for the zero solution of the considered nonlinear non-autonomous stochastic differential equation is obtained which can be considered as a multi-condition of stability because it allows to get for one considered equation at once several different complementary of each other sufficient stability conditions. The obtained results are illustrated with numerical simulations and figures.Comment: Published at https://doi.org/10.15559/18-VMSTA110 in the Modern Stochastics: Theory and Applications (https://www.i-journals.org/vtxpp/VMSTA) by VTeX (http://www.vtex.lt/

In this note, the T-S fuzzy model approach is exploited to establish stability criteria for a class of nonlinear stochastic systems with time delay. Sufficient conditions are derived in the format of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), such that for all admissible parameter uncertainties, the overall fuzzy system is stochastically exponentially stable in the mean square, independent of the time delay. Therefore, with the numerically attractive Matlab LMI toolbox, the robust stability of the uncertain stochastic fuzzy systems with time delays can be easily checked

On the asymptotic behavior of highly nonlinear hybrid stochastic delay differential equations

In this paper, under a local Lipschitz condition and a monotonicity condition, the problems on the existence and uniqueness theorem as well as the almost surely asymptotic behavior for the global solution of highly nonlinear stochastic differential equations with time-varying delay and Markovian switching are discussed by using the Lyapunov function and some stochastic analysis techniques. Two integral lemmas are firstly established to overcome the difficulty stemming from the coexistence of the stochastic perturbation and the time-varying delay. Then, without any redundant restrictive condition on the time-varying delay, by utilizing the integral inequality, the exponential stability in pth(p ≥ 1)-moment for such equations is investigated. By employing the nonnegative semi-martingale convergence theorem, the almost sure exponential stability is analyzed. Finally, two examples are given to show the usefulness of the results obtained.National Natural Science Foundation of ChinaNatural Science Foundation of Jiangxi Province of ChinaFoundation of Jiangxi Provincial Educations of ChinaMinisterio de Economía y Competitividad (MINECO).

By choosing to view this document, you agree to all provisions of the copyright laws protecting it.In this technical note, the globally exponential stabilization problem is investigated for a general class of stochastic systems with both Markovian jumping parameters and mixed time-delays. The mixed mode-dependent time-delays consist of both discrete and distributed delays. We aim to design a memoryless state feedback controller such that the closed-loop system is stochastically exponentially stable in the mean square sense. First, by introducing a new Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional that accounts for the mode-dependent mixed delays, stochastic analysis is conducted in order to derive a criterion for the exponential stabilizability problem. Then, a variation of such a criterion is developed to facilitate the controller design by using the linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach. Finally, it is shown that the desired state feedback controller can be characterized explicitly in terms of the solution to a set of LMIs. Numerical simulation is carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.This work was supported in part by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) of the U.K. under Grant GR/S27658/01, the Royal Society of the U.K., the National 973 Program of China under Grant 2009CB320600, and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany.
