We address the problem of designing controllers that guarantee asymptotic stability of a class of linear as well as nonlinear dynamical systems with time-periodic coefficients. Using a repeated procedure consisting of the Lyapunov-Floquet transformation, the backstepping technique, and Floquet theory, the asymptotic stability of the closed-loop linearized system is guaranteed. Further, a Lyapunov matrix for the closed-loop asymptotically stable linearized system is constructed. This Lyapunov function is then used to design a combination of linear and nonlinear controllers in order to guarantee the asymptotic stability of the nonlinear system. The methodology is illustrated by designing linear and nonlinear control laws for a system consisting of two statically coupled pendula, each subjected to a time-periodic force acting in the axial direction.

Abstract In this paper two nice examples are investigated where a ‘chain’ of n = (1, 2) pieces of rigid pipes contains incompressible and frictionless flowing fluid. We give an overview about the linear and nonlinear analysis of the autonomous system, i.e. when the pipes contain steady flow. Assuming pulsatile flow, the system becomes time-periodic. The stability charts of the linearized system are generated applying a numerical method based on Chebyshev polynomials. Finally, we analyze the effect of the nonlinear part in some critical points of the obtained stability charts and the dynamic behaviour of the original nonlinear periodic system is simulated numerically. The results are shown in Poincaré maps and bifurcation diagrams.

We consider nonlinear systems in the strict-feedback form with simultaneous time-varying input and state delays, for which we design a predictor-based feedback controller. Our design is based on time-varying, infinite-dimensional backstepping transformations that we introduce, to convert the system to a globally asymptotically stable system. The solutions of the closed-loop system in the transformed variables can be found explicitly, which allows us to establish its global asymptotic stability. Based on the invertibility of the backstepping transformation, we prove global asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system in the original variables. Our design is illustrated by a numerical example.

This paper proposes, designs, and analyses a novel nonlinear feedback controller that realizes fast, and oscillation free convergence of the synchronization error to the equilibrium point. Oscillation free convergence lowers the failure chances of a closed-loop system due to the reduced chattering phenomenon in the actuator motion, which is a consequence of low energy sm ooth control signal. The proposed controller has a novel structure. This controller does not cancel nonlinear terms of the plant in the closed-loop; this attribute improves the robustness of the loop. The controller consists of linear and nonlinear parts; each part executes a specific task. The linear term in the controller keeps the closed-loop stable, while the nonlinear part of the controller facilitates the fast convergence of the error signal to the vicinity of the origin. Then the linear controller synthesizes a smooth control signal that moves the error signals to zero without oscillations. The nonlinear term of the controller does not contribute to this synthesis. The collaborative combination of linear and nonlinear controllers that drive the synchronization errors to zero is innovative. The paper establishes proof of global stability and convergence behavior by describing a detailed analysis based on the Lyapunov stability theory. Computer simulation results of two numerical examples verify the performance of the proposed controller approach. The paper also provides a comparative study with state-of-the-art controllers.

Leta(t),b(t)be continuousT-periodic functions with∫0Tb(t)dt=0. We establish one stability criterion for the linear damped oscillatorx′′+b(t)x′+a(t)x=0. Moreover, based on the computation of the corresponding Birkhoff normal forms, we present a sufficient condition for the stability of the equilibrium of the nonlinear damped oscillatorx′′+b(t)x′+a(t)x+c(t)x2n-1+e(t,x)=0, wheren≥2,c(t)is a continuousT-periodic function,e(t,x)is continuousT-periodic intand dominated by the powerx2nin a neighborhood ofx=0.

In this paper, a prey‐predator dynamics, where the predator species partially depends upon the prey species, in a two patch habitat with diffusion and there is a non‐diffusing additional resource for the prey population, is modeled and analyzed. It is shown, that there exists a positive, monotonic, continuous steady state solution with continuous matching at the interface for both the species separately. Further, we obtain conditions for asymptotic stability for both linear and nonlinear cases. Šiame straipsnyje modeliuojama ir analizuojama plešr‐unu ir auku dinamika, laikant, kad plešr-unu populiacija dalinai priklauso nuo auku skačiaus. Areala sudaro dvi sritys, kuriose vyksta populiaciju individu difuzija, be to, aukoms yra išskirtas nedifunduojantis resursas. Irodyta, kad egzistuoja teigiamas, monotoniškas, tolydus stacionarusis sprendinys, tenkinantis tolydumo salyga abiems populiacijoms atskirai. Gautos asimptotinio stabilumo salygos tiesiniu ir netiesiniu atvejais.

In this paper, stability results of central concern for control theory are given for finite-dimensional linear and nonlinear local fractional or fractal differential systems. The main purpose of this paper is to provide some results on stability and asymptotic stability of conformable order systems, together with some illustrating examples.
