    The aim of this paper is to propose a stability analysis approach based on the application of the center manifold theory and applied to state feedback Takagi-Sugeno-Kang fuzzy control systems. The approach is built upon a similar approach developed for Mamdani fuzzy controllers. It starts with a linearized mathematical model of the process that is accepted to belong to the family of single input second-order nonlinear systems which are linear with respect to the control signal. In addition, smooth right-hand terms of the state-space equations that model the processes are assumed. The paper includes the validation of the approach by application to stable state feedback Takagi-Sugeno-Kang fuzzy control system for the position control of an electro-hydraulic servo-system

    A fully probabilistic control framework for stochastic systems with input and state delay

    This paper proposes a unified probabilistic control framework for a class of stochastic systems with both control input and state time delays. Both of the stochastic nature and time delays in the system dynamics are considered simultaneously, thus providing a comprehensive and rigorous control methodology. The problem is formulated in a fully probabilistic framework, where the system dynamics and its controller are fully characterised by arbitrary probabilistic models. In this framework, the Kullback–Leibler Divergence between the actual joint probability density function of the system dynamics and controller and a predefined ideal joint probability density function is used to characterise the discrepancy between the two distributions and derive the randomised controller. Time delays in the control input and system state are taken into consideration in the optimisation process for the derivation of the optimal randomised controller. Besides, the analytic control solution of the time delay fully probabilistic control problem for a class of linear Gaussian stochastic systems is derived while the successive approximation approach is implemented to deal with the time-advanced components in the control law that result from the existence of time delays. The effectiveness of the proposed control framework is then illustrated on a numerical example and a real-world example

    Open Mathematics is a challenging notion for theoretical modeling, technical analysis, and numerical simulation in physics and mathematics, as well as in many other fields, as highly correlated nonlinear phenomena, evolving over a large range of time scales and length scales, control the underlying systems and processes in their spatiotemporal evolution. Indeed, available data, be they physical, biological, or financial, and technologically complex systems and stochastic systems, such as mechanical or electronic devices, can be managed from the same conceptual approach, both analytically and through computer simulation, using effective nonlinear dynamics methods. The aim of this Special Issue is to highlight papers that show the dynamics, control, optimization and applications of nonlinear systems. This has recently become an increasingly popular subject, with impressive growth concerning applications in engineering, economics, biology, and medicine, and can be considered a veritable contribution to the literature. Original papers relating to the objective presented above are especially welcome subjects. Potential topics include, but are not limited to: Stability analysis of discrete and continuous dynamical systems; Nonlinear dynamics in biological complex systems; Stability and stabilization of stochastic systems; Mathematical models in statistics and probability; Synchronization of oscillators and chaotic systems; Optimization methods of complex systems; Reliability modeling and system optimization; Computation and control over networked systems
