EXISTENCE OF SOLUTION AND APPROXIMATE CONTROLLABILITY OF A SECOND-ORDER NEUTRAL STOCHASTIC DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION WITH STATE DEPENDENT DELAY

This paper has two sections which deals with a second order stochastic neutral partial differential equation with state dependent delay. In the first section the existence and uniqueness of mild solution is obtained by use of measure of non-compactness. In the second section the conditions for approximate controllability are investigated for the distributed second order neutral stochastic differential system with respect to the approximate controllability of the corresponding linear system in a Hilbert space. Our method is an extension of co-author N. Sukavanam’s novel approach in [22]. Thereby, we remove the need to assume the invertibility of a controllability operator used by authors in [5], which fails to exist in infinite dimensional spaces if the associated semigroup is compact. Our approach also removes the need to check the invertibility of the controllability Gramian operator and associated limit condition used by the authors in [20], which are practically difficult to verify and apply. An example is provided to illustrate the presented theory.

Stability of nonlinearly-perturbed systems with time varying delay using LMIs

This paper studies delay dependent robust stability and the stabilization problem of nonlinear perturbed systems with time varying delay. A new set of sufficient conditions for the stability of open as well as close loop systems are obtained in the sense of Lyapunov-Krasovskii. To reduce the conservatism, the work exploits the idea of splitting the delay interval into multiple equal regions so that less information on the time delay can be imposed to derive the results. The derived criterion not only improves the upper bounds of the time delay but also does not require the derivative of the delay to be known at prior. Easily testable sufficient criteria are presented in terms of linear matrix inequalities. It is shown that the derived conditions are very less conservative while comparing the maximum allowable upper bound of delay with the existing results in literature.

DELAY DEPENDENT ROBUST DISSIPATIVE CONTROL FOR A CLASS OF NONLINEAR TIME-DELAY SYSTEMS

We discuss the delay dependent robust dissipative problem for a class of time-delay systems with nonlinear perturbations. And the sufficient conditions for the delay dependent robust dissipation and quadratic stability are given by the linear matrix inequalities （LMIs）, then the time-delay bound and the delay dependent robust dissipative state feedback controller are presented.

Exponential Stability of Uncertain T-S Fuzzy Switched Systems with Time Delay

This paper discusses the delay-dependent exponential stability of a class of uncertain T-S fuzzy switched systems with time delay. The method is based on Lyapunov stability theorem and free weighting matrices approach. Two illustrative examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Effects of fractional-order PI controller on delay margin in single-area delayed load frequency control systems

This study aims to determine the improvement effect on the delay margin if fractional-order proportional integral(PI) controller is used in the control of a singlearea delayed load frequency control(LFC) system. The delay margin of the system with fractional-order PI control has been obtained for various fractional integral orders and the effect of them has been shown on the delay margin as a third controller parameter. Furthermore,the stability of the system that is either under or over the delay margin is examined by generalized modified Mikhailov criterion.The stability results obtained have been confirmed numerically in time domain. It is demonstrated that the proposed controller for delayed LFC system provides more flexibility on delay margin according to integer-order PI controller.

ASYMPTOTIC BEHAVIOR AND OSCILLATIONS OF SECOND ORDER DIFFERENCE EQUATIONS WITH DELAY DEPENDING ON THE UNKNOWN FUNCTION

The asymptotic behavior of the nonoscillatory solutions of the difference equations △[r(n)△x(n)]+f(n,x(n),x(r(n,x(n))))=0 is considered. In the case when f is a strongly sublinear (superlinear) function, conditions for oscillations of (1) are also found.
