This paper addresses the problem of H∞ control for a class of uncertain stochastic systems with Markovian switching and time-varying delays. The system under consideration is subject to time-varying norm-bounded parameter uncertainties and an unknown nonlinear function in the state. An integral sliding surface corresponding to every mode is first constructed, and the given sliding mode controller concerning the transition rates of modes can deal with the effect of Markovian switching. The synthesized sliding mode control law ensures the reachability of the sliding surface for corresponding subsystems and the global stochastic stability of the sliding mode dynamics. A simulation example is presented to illustrate the proposed method

Electrochemical Characterization of Li 4

Li4Ti5O12/C composite was synthesized by starch-sol-assisted rheological phase method using inexpensive raw material starch as carbon coating precursor. The Li4Ti5O12/C powder was characterized using XRD, SEM, and TG techniques. The synthesized Li4Ti5O12 crystallites are cohesively covered by conductive carbon from starch sol which leads to increased conductivity, and the particle size of Li4Ti5O12/C is about 500 nm. The electrochemical performance of Li4Ti5O12/C was characterized by galvanostatic charge/discharge and EIS methods, and the results show that the Li4Ti5O12/C presents a high discharge capacity, high rate capability, and long cycle life. The capacity retention was at 87% (500 cycles at 1C) and 73.0% (2000 cycles at 20C) indicating promising high rate performance of Li4Ti5O12/C as anode material for lithium ion battery

This paper investigates p-moment stability of the stochastic differential delay systems with impulsive jump and Markovian switching. Some stability criteria are obtained based on Lyapunov functional method and stochastic theory. It is shown that, even if all the subsystems governing the continuous dynamics without impulse are not stable, as impulsive and switching signal satisfies a dwell-time upper bound condition, impulses can stabilize the systems in the p-moment stability sense. The opposite situation is also developed for which all the subsystems governing the continuous dynamics are p-moment stable. The results can be easily applied to stochastic systems with arbitrarily large delays. The efficiency of the proposed results is illustrated by two numerical examples
