Methods A new concept of dynamic equilibrium of a system and its stability were presented first. It was pointed out that what is controlled directly by the input of a control system is the system's dynamic equilibrium rather than the states. Based on it, a new feedback linearization method for nonlinear system based on the Lyapunov direct method was given. Simulation studies were also carried out. Results The example and simulation show that by use of the method, the controller design becomes very simple and the control effect is quite satisfying. Conclusion The new method unifies the stabilizing problem(regulating problem) with the tracking problem. It is a very simple and effective method for the design of nonlinear and time varying control system.展开更多

The effective stress law was used to represent the weakening of rock containing pore fluid under pressure. Numerical results show that rock specimen becomes soft (lower strength and hardening modulus) as pore pressure increases, leading to higher displacement skip across shear band. Higher pore pressure results in larger area of plastic zone, higher concentration of shear strain, more apparent precursor to snap-back (unstable failure) and slower snap-back. For higher pore pressure, the formation of shear band-elastic body system and the snap-back are earlier; the distance of snap-back decreases; the capacity of snap-back decreases, leading to lower elastic strain energy liberated beyond the instability and lower earthquake or rockburst magnitude. In the process of snap-back, the velocity skip across shear band is lower for rock specimen at higher pore pressure, showing the slower velocity of snap-back.展开更多

By transforming the system representation under the arrow form and using a new constructed Lyapunov function,the aggregation techniques,the Borne-Gentina practical stability criterion associated with the properties, new delay-independent stability conditions of the considered systems are established. Compared with the existing results in this area, the obtained result is explicit, simple to use and allows us to avoid the problem of searching a common Lyapunov function. Finally, an example is provided, with numerical simulations,to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多

The system under consideration can be viewed as a two-component process (X(t), α(t)), where the system is linear in X(t) and α(t) is a continuous-time Markov chain with a finite state space. Conditions for almost surely exponential stability and instability are obtained. The conditions are based on the Lyapunov exponent, which in turn, depends on the associate invaxiant density. Concentrating on the case that the continuous component is two dimensional, using transformation techniques, differential equations satisfied by the invariant density associated with the Lyapunov exponent are derived. Conditions for existence and uniqueness of solutions are derived. Then numerical solutions are developed to solve the associated differential equations.展开更多

In this paper, the authors review the recent research progress and the state-of-art results on simultaneous stabilization of single-input single-output linear time-invariant systems. Especially, the authors list the ever best results on the parameters involved in the well known "French Champagne Problem" and "Belgian Chocolate Problem" from the point of view of mathematical theoretical analysis and numerical calculation. And the authors observed that Boston claimed the lower bound of 5 can be enlarged to 0.976461 in 2012 is not accurate. The authors hope it will inspire further study on simultaneous stabilization of several linear systems.展开更多

Using active control approach, the suitable controller is constructed to make the states of two different diverse time delayed systems asymptotically synchronize up to the desired scaling factor. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, the sufficient condition for the projective synchronization is calculated theoretically. Numerical simulations of the projective synchronization between Maekey-Glass system and Ikeda system with variable time delays are shown to validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.展开更多
