Integral Input-to-State Stability of Nonlinear Time-Delay Systems with Delay-Dependent Impulse Effects
This paper studies integral input-to-state stability (iISS) of nonlinear
impulsive systems with time-delay in both the continuous dynamics and the
impulses. Several iISS results are established by using the method of
Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals. For impulsive systems with iISS continuous
dynamics and destabilizing impulses, we derive two iISS criteria that guarantee
the uniform iISS of the whole system provided that the time period between two
successive impulse moments is appropriately bounded from below. Then we provide
an iISS result for systems with unstable continuous dynamics and stabilizing
impulses. For this scenario, it is shown that the iISS properties are
guaranteed if the impulses occur frequently enough. For impulsive systems with
stabilizing impulses and stable continuous dynamics for zero input, we obtain
an iISS result which shows that the entire system is uniformly iISS over
arbitrary impulse time sequences. As applications, iISS properties of a class
of bilinear systems are studied in details with simulations to demonstrate the
presented results
Mathematical control of complex systems 2013
Mathematical control of complex systems have already become an ideal research area for control engineers, mathematicians, computer scientists, and biologists to understand, manage, analyze, and interpret functional information/dynamical behaviours from real-world complex dynamical systems, such as communication systems, process control, environmental systems, intelligent manufacturing systems, transportation systems, and structural systems. This special issue aims to bring together the latest/innovative knowledge and advances in mathematics for handling complex systems. Topics include, but are not limited to the following: control systems theory (behavioural systems, networked control systems, delay systems, distributed systems, infinite-dimensional systems, and positive systems); networked control (channel capacity constraints, control over communication networks, distributed filtering and control, information theory and control, and sensor networks); and stochastic systems (nonlinear filtering, nonparametric methods, particle filtering, partial identification, stochastic control, stochastic realization, system identification)
Stability analysis of impulsive stochastic CohenāGrossberg neural networks with mixed time delays
This is the post print version of the article. The official published version can be obtained from the link - Copyright 2008 Elsevier LtdIn this paper, the problem of stability analysis for a class of impulsive stochastic CohenāGrossberg neural networks with mixed delays is considered. The mixed time delays comprise both the time-varying and infinite distributed delays. By employing a combination of the M-matrix theory and stochastic analysis technique, a sufficient condition is obtained to ensure the existence, uniqueness, and exponential p-stability of the equilibrium point for the addressed impulsive stochastic CohenāGrossberg neural network with mixed delays. The proposed method, which does not make use of the Lyapunov functional, is shown to be simple yet effective for analyzing the stability of impulsive or stochastic neural networks with variable and/or distributed delays. We then extend our main results to the case where the parameters contain interval uncertainties. Moreover, the exponential convergence rate index is estimated, which depends on the system parameters. An example is given to show the effectiveness of the obtained results.This work was supported by the Natural Science Foundation of CQ CSTC under grant 2007BB0430, the Scientific Research Fund of Chongqing Municipal Education Commission under Grant KJ070401, an International Joint Project sponsored by the Royal Society of the UK and the National Natural Science Foundation of China, and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany
Time-delayed impulsive control for discrete-time nonlinear systems with actuator saturation
This paper focuses on the problem of time-delayed impulsive control with actuator saturation for discrete-time dynamical systems. By establishing a delayed impulsive difference inequality, combining with convex analysis and inequality techniques, some sufficient conditions are obtained to ensure exponential stability for discrete-time dynamical systems via time-delayed impulsive controller with actuator saturation. The designed controller admits the existence of some transmission delays in impulsive feedback law, and the control input variables are required to stay within an availability zone. Several numerical simulations are also given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed results. 
Minimal data rate stabilization of nonlinear systems over networks with large delays
Control systems over networks with a finite data rate can be conveniently
modeled as hybrid (impulsive) systems. For the class of nonlinear systems in
feedfoward form, we design a hybrid controller which guarantees stability, in
spite of the measurement noise due to the quantization, and of an arbitrarily
large delay which affects the communication channel. The rate at which feedback
packets are transmitted from the sensors to the actuators is shown to be
arbitrarily close to the infimal one.Comment: 16 pages; references have now been adde

On Input-to-State Stability of Impulsive Stochastic Systems with Time Delays
This paper is concerned with pth moment input-to-state stability (p-ISS) and stochastic input-to-state stability (SISS) of impulsive stochastic systems with time delays. Razumikhin-type theorems ensuring p-ISS/SISS are established for the mentioned systems with external input affecting both the continuous and the discrete dynamics. It is shown that when the impulse-free delayed stochastic dynamics are p-ISS/SISS but the impulses are destabilizing, the p-ISS/SISS property of the impulsive stochastic systems can be preserved if the length of the impulsive interval is large enough. In particular, if the impulse-free delayed stochastic dynamics are p-ISS/SISS
and the discrete dynamics are marginally stable for the zero input, the impulsive stochastic system is p-ISS/SISS regardless of how often or how seldom the impulses occur. To overcome the difficulties caused by the coexistence of time delays, impulses, and stochastic effects, Razumikhin techniques and piecewise continuous Lyapunov functions as well as stochastic analysis techniques are involved together. An example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness and advantages of our results
On the validity of memristor modeling in the neural network literature
An analysis of the literature shows that there are two types of
non-memristive models that have been widely used in the modeling of so-called
"memristive" neural networks. Here, we demonstrate that such models have
nothing in common with the concept of memristive elements: they describe either
non-linear resistors or certain bi-state systems, which all are devices without
memory. Therefore, the results presented in a significant number of
publications are at least questionable, if not completely irrelevant to the
actual field of memristive neural networks
