Input-to-State Stability with Respect to Boundary Disturbances for a Class of Semi-linear Parabolic Equations
This paper studies the input-to-state stability (ISS) properties based on the
method of Lyapunov functionals for a class of semi-linear parabolic partial
differential equations (PDEs) with respect to boundary disturbances. In order
to avoid the appearance of time derivatives of the disturbances in ISS
estimates, some technical inequalities are first developed, which allow
directly dealing with the boundary conditions and establishing the ISS based on
the method of Lyapunov functionals. The well-posedness analysis of the
considered problem is carried out and the conditions for ISS are derived. Two
examples are used to illustrate the application of the developed result.Comment: Manuscript submitted to Automatic
Decay Estimates for 1-D Parabolic PDEs with Boundary Disturbances
In this work decay estimates are derived for the solutions of 1-D linear
parabolic PDEs with disturbances at both boundaries and distributed
disturbances. The decay estimates are given in the L2 and H1 norms of the
solution and discontinuous disturbances are allowed. Although an eigenfunction
expansion for the solution is exploited for the proof of the decay estimates,
the estimates do not require knowledge of the eigenvalues and the
eigenfunctions of the corresponding Sturm-Liouville operator. Examples show
that the obtained results can be applied for the stability analysis of
parabolic PDEs with nonlocal terms.Comment: 35 pages, submitted for possible publication to ESAIM-COC
A De Giorgi Iteration-based Approach for the Establishment of ISS Properties for Burgers' Equation with Boundary and In-domain Disturbances
This note addresses input-to-state stability (ISS) properties with respect to
(w.r.t.) boundary and in-domain disturbances for Burgers' equation. The
developed approach is a combination of the method of De~Giorgi iteration and
the technique of Lyapunov functionals by adequately splitting the original
problem into two subsystems. The ISS properties in -norm for Burgers'
equation have been established using this method. Moreover, as an application
of De~Giorgi iteration, ISS in -norm w.r.t. in-domain disturbances
and actuation errors in boundary feedback control for a 1- {linear}
{unstable reaction-diffusion equation} have also been established. It is the
first time that the method of De~Giorgi iteration is introduced in the ISS
theory for infinite dimensional systems, and the developed method can be
generalized for tackling some problems on multidimensional spatial domains and
to a wider class of nonlinear {partial differential equations (PDEs)Comment: This paper has been accepted for publication by IEEE Trans. on
