On Lyapunov-Krasovskii Functionals for Switched Nonlinear Systems with Delay
We present a set of results concerning the existence of Lyapunov-Krasovskii
functionals for classes of nonlinear switched systems with time-delay. In
particular, we first present a result for positive systems that relaxes
conditions recently described in \cite{SunWang} for the existence of L-K
functionals. We also provide related conditions for positive coupled
differential-difference positive systems and for systems of neutral type that
are not necessarily positive. Finally, corresponding results for discrete-time
systems are described.Comment: 19 Page
On Delay-independent Stability of a class of Nonlinear Positive Time-delay Systems
We present a condition for delay-independent stability of a class of
nonlinear positive systems. This result applies to systems that are not
necessarily monotone and extends recent work on cooperative nonlinear systems.Comment: 9 page
New advances in H∞ control and filtering for nonlinear systems
The main objective of this special issue is to
summarise recent advances in H∞ control and filtering
for nonlinear systems, including time-delay, hybrid and
stochastic systems. The published papers provide new
ideas and approaches, clearly indicating the advances
made in problem statements, methodologies or applications
with respect to the existing results. The special
issue also includes papers focusing on advanced and
non-traditional methods and presenting considerable
novelties in theoretical background or experimental
setup. Some papers present applications to newly
emerging fields, such as network-based control and
estimation
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
Gain Bounds for Multiple Model Switched Adaptive Control of General MIMO LTI Systems
For the class of MIMO minimal LTI systems controlled by an estimation based multiple model switched adaptive controller (EMMSAC), bounds are obtained for the closed loop lp gain, 1 ? p ? ?, from the input and output disturbances to the internal signals
