To analyze the stability of dynamic control through asoft interface-the viscoelastic material between a manipulating finger and a manipulated object- we model dynamic control through the soft interface in continuous-discrete time. We then formulate dynamics using a modified z-transform in continuous-discrete time for feedback and feedforward control. We show that system stability depends on the viscoelasticity of the soft interface for feedback control. The relationship between material viscosity and sampling time in critical stability is not monotonous, a phenomenon we analyze by root locus. We compare stability analysis by the modified z-transform, simulations based on the Runge-Kutta method, and a regular z-transform, demonstrating that the relationship is specific to a continuous-discrete time.

This brief investigates the stability problem of discrete-time switched positive systems with delays, and establishes some necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a switched copositive Lyapunov function(SCLF) for such systems. It turns out that the size of the delays does not affect the stability of these systems. In other words, system stability is completely determined by the system matrices.

A fundamental task in photogrammetry is the temporal stability analysis of a camera/imaging-system’s calibration parameters. This is essential to validate the repeatability of the parameters’ estimation, to detect any behavioural changes in the camera/imaging system and to ensure precise photogrammetric products. Many stability analysis methods exist in the photogrammetric literature; each one has different methodological bases, and advantages and disadvantages. This paper presents a simple and rigorous stability analysis method that can be straightforwardly implemented for a single camera or an imaging system with multiple cameras. The basic collinearity model is used to capture differences between two calibration datasets, and to establish the stability analysis methodology. Geometric simulation is used as a tool to derive image and object space scenarios. Experiments were performed on real calibration datasets from a dual fluoroscopy (DF; X-ray-based) imaging system. The calibration data consisted of hundreds of images and thousands of image observations from six temporal points over a two-day period for a precise evaluation of the DF system stability. The stability of the DF system – for a single camera analysis – was found to be within a range of 0.01 to 0.66 mm in terms of 3D coordinates root-mean-square-error (RMSE), and 0.07 to 0.19 mm for dual cameras analysis. It is to the authors’ best knowledge that this work is the first to address the topic of DF stability analysis.

This paper deals with the walking stability analysis of a multi-legged crablike robot over slope using normalized energy stability margin (NESM) method in order to develop a common stabilization description method and achieve robust locomotion for the robot over rough terrains. The robot is simplified with its static stability being described by NESM. The mathematical model of static stability margin is built so as to carry out the simulation of walking stability over slope for the crablike robot that walks in double tetrapod gait. As a consequence, the relationship between stability margin and the height of the robots centroid, as well as its inclination relative to the ground is calculated by the stability criterion. The success and performance of the stability criterion proposed is verified through MATLAB simulation and real-world experiments using multi-legged crablike robot.

This paper addresses the Sliding Mode Learning Control (SMLC) of uncertain nonlinear systems with Lyapunov stability analysis. In the control scheme, a conventional control term is used to provide the system stability in compact space while a type-2 neuro-fuzzy controller (T2NFC) learns system behaviour so that the T2NFC completely takes over overall control of the system in a very short time period. The stability of the sliding mode learning algorithm has been proven in the literature; however, it is restrictive for systems without overall system stability. To address this shortcoming, a novel control structure with a novel sliding surface is proposed in this paper, and the stability of the overall system is proven for nth-order uncertain nonlinear systems. To investigate the capability and effectiveness of the proposed learning and control algorithms, the simulation studies have been carried out under noisy conditions. The simulation results confirm that the developed SMLC algorithm can learn the system behaviour in the absence of any mathematical model knowledge and exhibit robust control performance against external disturbances.

The approach to the analysis of Lyapunov systems stability of linear ordinary differential equations based on multiplicative transformations of difference schemes of numerical integration is presented. As a result of transformations, the stability criteria in the form of necessary and sufficient conditions are formed. The criteria are invariant with respect to the right side of the system and do not require its transformation with respect to the difference scheme, the length of the gap and the step of the solution. A distinctive feature of the criteria is that they do not use the methods of the qualitative theory of differential equations. In particular, for the case of systems with a constant matrix of the coefficients it is not necessary to construct a characteristic polynomial and estimate the values of the characteristic numbers. When analyzing the system stability with variable matrix coefficients, it is not necessary to calculate the characteristic indicators. The varieties of criteria in an additive form are obtained, the stability analysis based on them being equivalent to the stability assessment based on the criteria in a multiplicative form. Under the conditions of a linear system stability (asymptotic stability) of differential equations, the criteria of the systems stability (asymptotic stability) of linear differential equations with a nonlinear additive are obtained. For the systems of nonlinear ordinary differential equations the scheme of stability analysis based on linearization is presented, which is directly related to the solution under study. The scheme is constructed under the assumption that the solution stability of the system of a general form is equivalent to the stability of the linearized system in a sufficiently small neighborhood of the perturbation of the initial data. The matrix form of the criteria allows implementing them in the form of a cyclic program. The computer analysis is performed in real time and allows coming to an unambiguous conclusion about the nature of the system stability under study. On the basis of a numerical experiment, the acceptable range of the step variation of the difference method and the interval length of the difference solution within the boundaries of the reliability of the stability analysis is established. The approach based on the computer analysis of the systems stability of linear differential equations is rendered. Computer testing has shown the feasibility of using this approach in practice.
