The purpose of this paper is to obtain a set of sufficient conditions for “global asymptotic stability” of the trivial solution x = 0 of the differential equation1.1using a Lyapunov function which is substantially different from similar functions used in [2], [3] and [4], for similar differential equations. The functions f1, f2 and f3 are real - valued and are smooth enough to ensure the existence of the solutions of (1.1) on [0, ∞). The dot indicates differentiation with respect to t. We are taking a and b to be some positive parameters.

In the paper, we are concerned with the partial asymptotic stochastic stability (stability in probability) of stochastic differential delay equations with Markovian switching (SDDEwMSs), the sufficient conditions for partial asymptotic stability in probability have been given and we have generalized some results of Sharov and Ignatyev to cover a class of much more general SDDEwMSs.

The stationary response and asymptotic stability in probability of an articulated tower under random wave excitation are investigated. The articulated tower is modelled as a SDOF system having stiffness nonlinearity, damping nonlinearity and parametric excitation. Using a stochastic averaging procedure and Fokker-Plank-Kolomogorov equation (FPK), the probability density function of the stationary solution is obtained for random sea state represented by a P-M sea spectrum. The method involves a Van-Der-Pol transformation of the nonlinear equation of motion to convert it to the Ito’s stochastic differential equation with averaged drift and diffusion coefficients. The asymptotic stability in probability of the system is investigated by obtaining the averaged Ito’s equation for the Hamiltonian of the system. The asymptotic stability is examined approximately by investigating the asymptotic behaviour of the diffusion process Y(t) at its two boundaries Y = 0 and ∞. As an illustrative example, an articulated tower in a sea depth of 150 m is considered. The tower consists of hollow cylinder of varying diameter along the height, providing the required buoyancy of the system. Wave forces on the structure are calculated using Morrison’s equation. The stochastic response and the stability conditions are obtained for a sea state represented by P-M spectrum with 16m significant wave height. The results of the study indicate that the probability density of the stationary response obtained by the stochastic averaging procedure is in very good agreement with that obtained from digital simulation. Further, the articulated tower is found to be asymptotically stable under the parametric excitation arising due to hydrodynamic damping.

Lyapunov’s 2ndMethod is a popular approach in the model-based control of nonlinear systems since normally it can guaranteeglobal asymptotic stability. However, the cost of the application of Lyapunov function frequently can be inefficient and complicated parameter tuning process containing unnecessary number of almost arbitrary control parameters, and vulnerability of the tuning process against not modeled, unknown external disturbances. Improved versions of the original, model-based tuning are especially sensitive to the external perturbations. All these disadvantages can simply be avoided by the application of robust fixed point transformations at the cost of giving up the guarantee of global asymptotic stability. Instead of that simple,stable iterative controlof local basin of attraction can be constructed on the basis of an approximate system model that can well compensate the effects of unknown external disturbances, too. Since the basin of convergence of the method in principle can be left, setting the three adaptive parameters of this controller needs preliminary simulation investigations. These statements are illustrated and substantiated via simulation results obtained for the adaptive control of various physical systems.
