Malaria was declared an emergency in Nigeria and strategies for the control of Malaria in Nigeria were adopted to reduce its prevalence to a level at which the disease will no longer constitute public health problems. In this work, we presented a deterministic (Ross–Macdonald model susceptible, expose/ infected, infectious and recovered) model incorporating the method of control adopted by national Malaria and leprosy control program. We established the disease free and the endemic equilibrium states and carried out the stability analysis of the disease. Free and the equilibrium state. We also carried out numerical simulation of the model to have an insight into the dynamics of the model. We found out that the disease free equilibrium state is stable. The feedback dynamics from mosquito to human and back to mosquito involve considerable time due to the incubation periods of the parasites. In this paper, taking explicit account of the incubation periods of parasites within the human and the mosquito, we first propose a Ross–Macdonald model. The Jacobiant results showed that it would be very difficult to completely eradicate Malaria from Nigeria using the method adopted by national Malaria and leprosy control program.

In this paper, we extend the wavelet networks for identification and H∞ control of a class of nonlinear dynamical systems. The technique of feedback linearization, supervisory control and H∞ control are used to design an adaptive control law and also the parameter adaptation laws of the wavelet network are developed using a Lyapunov-based design. By some theorems, it will be proved that even in the presence of modeling errors, named network error, the stability of the overall closed-loop system and convergence of the network parameters and the boundedness of the state errors are guaranteed. The applicability of the proposed method is illustrated on a nonlinear plant by computer simulation.

Synchronization in complex networks is an evergreen subject with many practical applications across the natural and social sciences. The stability of synchronization is thereby crucial for determining whether the dynamical behavior is stable or not. The master stability function is commonly used to that effect. In this paper, we study whether there is a relation between the stability of synchronization and the proximity to certain bifurcation types. We consider four different nonlinear dynamical systems, and we determine their master stability functions in dependence on key bifurcation parameters. We also calculate the corresponding bifurcation diagrams. By means of systematic comparisons, we show that, although there are some variations in the master stability functions in dependence on bifurcation proximity and type, there is in fact no general relation between synchronization stability and bifurcation type. This has important implication for the restrained generalizability of findings concerning synchronization in complex networks for one type of node dynamics to others.

This paper presents a FBFN-based (Fuzzy Basis Function Networks) adaptive sliding mode control algorithm for nonlinear dynamic systems. Firstly, we designed an perfect control law according to the nominal plant. However, there always exists discrepancy between nominal and actual mode, and the FBFN was applied to approximate the uncertainty. After that, the adaptive law was designed to update the parameters of FBFN to alleviate the approximating errors. Based on the theory of Lyapunov stability, the stability of the adaptive controller was given with a sufficient condition. Simulation example was also given to illustrate the effectiveness of the method.

In this paper, a new method is proposed for controlling bifurcations of nonlinear dynamical systems. This approach employs the idea used in deriving the transition variety sets of bifurcations with constraints to find the stability region of equilibrium points in parameter space. With this method, one can design, via a feedback control, appropriate parameter values to delay either static, or dynamic or both bifurcations as one wishes. The approach is applied to consider controlling bifurcations of the Ro¨ssler system. The uncontrolled Ro¨ssler has two equilibrium solutions, one of which exhibits static bifurcation while the other has Hopf bifurcation. When a feedback control based on the new method is applied, one can delay the bifurcations and even change the type of bifurcations. An optimal control law is obtained to stabilize the Ro¨ssler system using all feasible system parameter values. Numerical simulations are used to verify the analytical results.

State observers for systems having Lipschitz nonlinearities are considered for what concerns the stability of the estimation error by means of a decomposition of the dynamics of the error into the cascade of two systems. First, conditions are established in order to guarantee the asymptotic stability of the estimation error in a noise-free setting. Second, under the effect of system and measurement disturbances regarded as unknown inputs affecting the dynamics of the error, the proposed observers provide an estimation error that is input-to-state stable with respect to these disturbances. Lyapunov functions and functionals are adopted to prove such results. Third, simulations are shown to confirm the theoretical achievements and the effectiveness of the stability conditions we have established.

Degenerate (or singular) Hopf bifurcations of a certain type determine the appearance of multiple limit cycles under system parameter perturbations. In the study of these degenerate Hopf bifurcations, computational formulas for the stability indexes (i.e., curvature coefficients) are essential. However, such formulas are very difficult to derive, and so are usually computed by different approximation methods. Inspired by the feedback control systems methodology and the harmonic balance approximation technique, higher-order approximate formulas for such curvature coefficients are derived in this paper in the frequency domain setting. The results obtained are then applied to a study of nonlinear dynamical systems within the region of one periodic solution, bypassing a direct investigation of the multiple limit cycles and some tedious discussion of the complex multiplicity issue. Finally, we will show that several types of stability bifurcations can be controlled based on the results obtained in this paper.
