Leader-following consensus of heterogeneous linear multi-agent systems: New results based on linear transformation method

This paper studies the leader-following state consensus problem for heterogeneous linear multi-agent systems under fixed directed communication topologies. First, we propose a consensus protocol consisting of four parts for high-order multi-agent systems, in which different agents are allowed to have different gain matrices so as to increase the degree of design freedom. Then, we adopt a state linear transformation, which is constructed based on the incidence matrix of a directed spanning tree of the communication topology, to equivalently transform the state consensus problem into a partial variable stability problem. Meanwhile, the results of the partial variable stability theory are used to derive a sufficient and necessary consensus criterion, expressed as the Hurwitz stability of a real matrix. Then, this criterion is further expressed as a bilinear matrix inequality condition, and, based on this condition, an iterative algorithm is proposed to find the gain matrices of the protocol. Finally, numerical examples are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed protocol design method.

Amplitude resonance response and feedback control of cantileverbeams with tip-mass under aerodynamic load

The dynamic of a cantilever beam with tip mass is studied under an aerodynamic loading. The effects of coupling is investigated by tacking into account the fluid flow. Using the multiple time scale method, the approximative solutions are found and the study of their stability is made by the Routh-Hurwitz stability criterion. The influence of parameters on the system is studied at the harmonic and subharmonic resonances. The results show that, the effects of tip mass can be neglected in harmonic resonance case ,while they are more important in subharmonic resonance cases. The results equally demonstrate that an increase of the stable state fluid velocity reduces the amplitude of vibrations. In addition, the hysteresis phenomenon studies show that it is principally induced by nonlinearity coefficients. Finally, time-delay feedback control is applied and the effects of controlling are observed on amplitude response curve at the harmonic resonance, from where we note that optimized choice of control parameters can be useful in controlling vibrations.

A Mathematical Model for Stability Analysis of Covid like Epidemic/Endemic/Pandemic

The transmission and spread of infectious disease like Covid-19 occurs through horizontal and vertical mode. The causative pathogens for such kind of disease may be bacterium, protozoa, virus or toxin. The infectious diseases like AIDS, SARS, MARS, Polio Plague, Bubonic Plague and Covid-19 have destroyed the social and economic structure of world population. The world scientific community adopts different mechanisms to model and analyze the population dynamics of infectious disease outbreaks. Mathematical Modelling is the most effective tool to take the informed decision about the containment, control and eradication of the pandemic. The main focus of Government and public health authorities is to design the strategy in destabilizing the spread and impact of the infections. A series of models-SIR, SEIR, SEIRD, SEAIHCRD, SAUQAR has been under study to combat the Covid-19 since its inception. An effort has been made to design the model based on reproduction number, endemic equilibrium and disease-free equilibrium to curtail the impact of Covid-19 through stability analysis methods- Hurwitz stability criteria, Lyapunov Method and Linear Stability Analysis

Microcontroller Implementation, Chaos Control, Synchronization and Antisynchronization of Josephson Junction Model

The microcontroller implementation, chaos control, synchronization, and antisynchronization of the nonlinear resistive-capacitive-inductive shunted Josephson junction (NRCISJJ) model are reported in this paper. The dynamical behavior of the NRCISJJ model is performed using phase portraits, and time series. The numerical simulation results reveal that the NRCISJJ model exhibits different shapes of hidden chaotic attractors by varying the parameters. The existence of different shapes of hidden chaotic attractors is confirmed by microcontroller results obtained from the microcontroller implementation of the NRCISJJ model. It is theoretically demonstrated that the two designed single controllers can suppress the hidden chaotic attractors found in the NRCISJJ model. Finally, the synchronization and antisynchronization of unidirectional coupled NRCISJJ models are studied by using the feedback control method. Thanks to the Routh Hurwitz stability criterion, the controllers are designed in order to control chaos in JJ models and achieved synchronization and antisynchronization between coupled NRCISJJ models. Numerical simulations are shown to clarify and confirm the control, synchronization, and antisynchronization.

Stability analysis and modified projective synchronization of fractional-order hyperchaotic dynamical systems using nonlinear controllers

This paper deals with the modified projective synchronization between two fractional-order four-dimensional (4D) hyperchaotic systems. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, a new controller for the synchronization of two fractional-order hyperchaotic systems is developed. The stability analysis of the error dynamics system is performed by the fractional-order Lyapunov direct method alongwith Routh–Hurwitz stability criterion. Numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate the validity and verify the effectiveness of the proposed synchronization scheme.

Formulation of a Mathematical Model for the Transmission Dynamics of Infectious Bursal Disease (IBD), Incorporating Eects of Environmental Factors

In this paper, we develop a four compartment model that explain the transmission dynamics of infectious bursal disease, considering the effects of environmental factors. Ordinary differential equations have been used in formulation of the model. Reproductive number (R0) has been derived using Next Generation Matrix. The disease free equilibrium is analyzed using Jacobian matrix and found to be locally and globally asymptotically stable when R0 < 1. We employ Routh-Hurwitz stability criterion to analyze the stability of endemic equilibrium. The numerical results indicates that contact with contaminated environment enhances the rate of transmission of the disease in the system.
