Global robust controllability of the triangular integro-differential Volterra systems

AbstractA solution of the global controllability problem for a class of nonlinear control systems of the Volterra integro-differential equations is presented. It is proven that there exists a family of continuous controls that solve the global controllability problem for this class. The constructed controls depend continuously on the initial and the terminal states. It makes possible to prove the global controllability of the uniformly bounded perturbations of these systems under the global Lipschitz condition for the unperturbed system with respect to the states and the controls

On the solvability of the Atangana–Baleanu fractional evolution equations: An integral contractor approach

We present existence and controllability results for mild solutions to the Atangana–Baleanu fractional evolution equations. We prove our results by applying bounded integral contractors and a sequencing technique. In contrast to the papers available in the literature, in order to establish our controllability results, we need not define the induced inverse of the controllability operator, and the pertinent nonlinear function need not necessarily satisfy a Lipschitz condition. In addition, we also establish trajectory controllability results. Finally, we discuss an application, which illustrates our results

Controllability of nonlinear fractional Langevin delay systems

In this paper, we discuss the controllability of fractional Langevin delay dynamical systems represented by the fractional delay differential equations of order 0 < α,β ≤ 1. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the controllability of linear fractional Langevin delay dynamical system are obtained by using the Grammian matrix. Sufficient conditions for the controllability of the nonlinear delay dynamical systems are established by using the Schauders fixed-point theorem. The problem of controllability of linear and nonlinear fractional Langevin delay dynamical systems with multiple delays and distributed delays in control are studied by using the same technique. Examples are provided to illustrate the theory

Internal rapid stabilization of a 1-D linear transport equation with a scalar feedback

We use the backstepping method to study the stabilization of a 1-D linear transport equation on the interval (0, L), by controlling the scalar amplitude of a piecewise regular function of the space variable in the source term. We prove that if the system is controllable in a periodic Sobolev space of order greater than 1, then the system can be stabilized exponentially in that space and, for any given decay rate, we give an explicit feedback law that achieves that decay rate
