Stability of fractional order systems

The theory and applications of fractional calculus (FC) had a considerable progress during the last years. Dynamical systems and control are one of the most active areas, and several authors focused on the stability of fractional order systems. Nevertheless, due to the multitude of efforts in a short period of time, contributions are scattered along the literature, and it becomes difficult for researchers to have a complete and systematic picture of the present day knowledge. This paper is an attempt to overcome this situation by reviewing the state of the art and putting this topic in a systematic form. While the problem is formulated with rigour, from the mathematical point of view, the exposition intends to be easy to read by the applied researchers. Different types of systems are considered, namely, linear/nonlinear, positive, with delay, distributed, and continuous/discrete. Several possible routes of future progress that emerge are also tackled

Global output feedback stabilization for nonlinear fractional order time delay systems

summary:This paper investigates the problem of global stabilization by state and output-feedback for a family of for nonlinear Riemann-Liouville and Caputo fractional order time delay systems written in triangular form satisfying linear growth conditions. By constructing a appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, global asymptotic stability of the closed-loop systems is achieved. Moreover, sufficient conditions for the stability, for the particular class of fractional order time-delay system are obtained. Finally, simulation results dealing with typical bioreactor example, are given to illustrate that the proposed design procedures are very efficient and simple

Stability and stabilization of fractional order time delay systems

U ovom radu predstavljeni su neki osnovni rezultati koji se odnose na kriterijume stabilnosti sistema necelobrojnog reda sa kašnjenjem kao i za sisteme necelobrojnog reda bez kašnjenja.Takođe, dobijeni su i predstavljeni dovoljni uslovi za konačnom vremenskom stabilnost i stabilizacija za (ne)linearne (ne)homogene kao i za perturbovane sisteme necelobrojnog reda sa vremenskim kašnjenjem. Nekoliko kriterijuma stabilnosti za ovu klasu sistema necelobrojnog reda je predloženo korišćenjem nedavno dobijene generalizovane Gronval nejednakosti, kao i 'klasične' Belman-Gronval nejednakosti. Neki zaključci koji se odnose na stabilnost sistema necelobrojnog reda su slični onima koji se odnose na klasične sisteme celobrojnog reda. Na kraju, numerički primer je dat u cilju ilustracije značaja predloženog postupka.In this paper, some basic results of the stability criteria of fractional order system with time delay as well as free delay are presented. Also, we obtained and presented sufficient conditions for finite time stability and stabilization for (non)linear (non)homogeneous as well as perturbed fractional order time delay systems. Several stability criteria for this class of fractional order systems are proposed using a recently suggested generalized Gronwall inequality as well as 'classical' Bellman-Gronwall inequality. Some conclusions for stability are similar to those of classical integerorder differential equations. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the validity of the proposed procedure

State Estimation for Fractional-Order Complex Dynamical Networks with Linear Fractional Parametric Uncertainty

This paper deals with state estimation problem for a class of fractional-order complex dynamical networks with parametric uncertainty. The parametric uncertainty is assumed to be of linear fractional form. Firstly, based on the properties of Kronecker product and the stability of fractional-order system, a sufficient condition is derived for robust asymptotic stability of linear fractional-order augmented system. Secondly, state estimation problem is then studied for the same fractional-order complex networks, where the purpose is to design a state estimator to estimate the network state through available output measurement, the existence conditions of designing state estimator are derived using matrix's singular value decomposition and LMI techniques. These conditions are in the form of linear matrix inequalities which can be readily solved by applying the LMI toolbox. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the validity of our approach
