Abstract: In this paper, the decomposition-aggregation method
is used to carry out connective stability criteria for general linear
composite system via aggregation. The large scale system is
decomposed into a number of subsystems. By associating directed
graphs with dynamic systems in an essential way, we define the
relation between system structure and stability in the sense of
Lyapunov. The stability criteria is then associated with the stability
and system matrices of subsystems as well as those interconnected
terms among subsystems using the concepts of vector differential
inequalities and vector Lyapunov functions. Then, we show that the
stability of each subsystem and stability of the aggregate model
imply connective stability of the overall system. An example is
reported, showing the efficiency of the proposed technique.
Abstract: Time delay in bilateral teleoperation system was
introduced as a sufficient reason to make the system unstable or
certainly degrade the system performance. In this paper, simulations
and experimental results of implementing p-like control scheme,
under different ranges of variable time delay, will be presented to
verify a certain criteria, which guarantee the system stability and
position tracking. The system consists of two Phantom premium 1.5A
devices. One of them acts as a master and the other acts as a slave.
The study includes deriving the Phantom kinematic and dynamic
model, establishing the link between the two Phantoms over
Simulink in Matlab, and verifying the stability criteria with
simulations and real experiments.
Abstract: This paper is concerned with the delay-distributiondependent
stability criteria for bidirectional associative memory
(BAM) neural networks with time-varying delays. Based on the
Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and stochastic analysis approach,
a delay-probability-distribution-dependent sufficient condition is derived
to achieve the globally asymptotically mean square stable of
the considered BAM neural networks. The criteria are formulated in
terms of a set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), which can be
checked efficiently by use of some standard numerical packages. Finally,
a numerical example and its simulation is given to demonstrate
the usefulness and effectiveness of the proposed results.
Abstract: In this paper, we consider the uniform asymptotic stability, global asymptotic stability and global exponential stability of the equilibrium point of discrete Hopfield neural networks with delays. Some new stability criteria for system are derived by using the Lyapunov functional method and the linear matrix inequality approach, for estimating the upper bound of Lyapunov functional derivative.
