Delay-dependent exponential stability criteria for stochastic systems with polytopic-type uncertainties

This paper considers the problem of delay-dependent exponential stability in mean square for stochastic systems with polytopic-type uncertainties and time-varying delay. Applying the descriptor model transformation and introducing free weighting matrices, a new type of Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is constructed based on linear matrix inequalities （LMIs）, and some new delay-dependent criteria are obtained. These criteria include the delay-independent/rate- dependent and delay-dependent/rate-independent exponential stability criteria. These new criteria are less conservative than existing ones. Numerical examples demonstrate that these new criteria are effective and are an improvement over existing ones.

ON EXPONENTIAL STABILITY OF NON-AUTONOMOUS STOCHASTIC SEMILINEAR EVOLUTION EQUATIONS

Sufficient conditions for the exponential stability of a class of nonlinear, non-autonomous stochastic differential equations in infinite dimensions are studied. The analysis consists of introducing a suitable approximating solution systems and usig a limiting argument to pass on stability of strong solutions to mild ones. Consequently, under these conditions the random attractors of given stochastic systems are reduced to zero with exponential decay. Lastly, two examples are investigated to illustrate the theory.

Stability of networked control systems with multi-step delay based on time-division algorithm

A new control mode is proposed for a networked control system whose network-induced delay is longer than a sampling period. A time-division algorithm is presented to implement the control and for the mathematical modeling of such networked control system. The infinite horizon controller is designed, which renders the networked control system mean square exponentially stable.Simulation results show the validity of the proposed theory.

Electrical impedance tomography using adaptive mesh refinement

In electrical impedance tomography （EIT）, distribution of the internal resistivity or conductivity of an unknown object is esti- mated using measured boundary voltage data induced by different current patterns with various reconstruction algorithms. The reconstruction algorithms usually employ the Newton-Raphson iteration scheme to visualize the resistivity distribution inside the object. Accuracy of the imaging process depends not only on the algorithm used, but also on the scheme of finite element discretization. In this paper an adaptive mesh refinement is used in a modified reconstruction algorithm for the regularized Err. The method has a major impact on efficient solution of the forward problem as well as on achieving improved image resolution. Computer simulations indicate that the Newton-Raphson reconstruction algorithm for Err using adaptive mesh refinement performs better than the classical Newton-Raphson algorithm in terms of reconstructed image resolution.

Robust stabilization of stochastic systems based on the LQ controller

The robust exponential stability in mean square for a class of linearstochastic uncertain control systems is dealt with. For the uncertain stochastic systems, we havedesigned an optimal controller which guarantees the exponential stability of the system. Actually,we employed Lyapunov function approach and the stochastic algebraic Riccati equation (SARE) to haveshown the robustness of the linear quadratic(LQ) optimal control law. And the algebraic criteria forthe exponential stability on the linear stochastic uncertain closed-loop systems are given.

Asynchronous Dissipative Control and Robust Exponential Mean Square Stabilization for Uncertain Fuzzy Neutral Markov Jump Systems

This paper researches the strict dissipative control problem for uncertain fuzzy neutral Markov jump systems by Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy rules.The asynchronous phenomenon is considered between the uncertain fuzzy neutral Markov jump systems modes and asynchronous fuzzy P-D feedback controller modes,which is described by a hidden Markov model.Via using linear matrix inequalities,the desired asynchronous fuzzy P-D feedback controller is obtained,which can ensure that the closed-loop uncertain fuzzy neutral Markov jump systems satisfies robustly exponential mean square stabilization with strict dissipativity.A numerical example and a single-link robot arm are utilized to demonstrate the effectiveness of the method.

EXPONENTIAL STABILITY FOR A CLASS OF SWITCHED STOCHASTIC SYSTEMS

In this paper, the stability properties for a class of switched stochastic systems with commutative componentwise subsystem matrices are studied. Under some switching law, the trivial solutions of the above systems are proved to be exponentially stable in mean square and almost sure exponentially stable if the random perturbations are sufficiently “small”.

Stabilization of stochastic Hopfield neural network with distributed parameters

In this paper, the stability of stochastic Hopfield neural network with distributed parameters is studied. To discuss the stability of systems, the main idea is to integrate the solution to systems in the space variable. Then, the integration is considered as the solution process of corresponding neural networks described by stochastic ordinary differential equations. A Lyapunov function is constructed and Ito formula is employed to compute the derivative of the mean Lyapunov function along the systems, with respect to the space variable. It is difficult to treat stochastic systems with distributed parameters since there is no corresponding Ito formula for this kind of system. Our method can overcome this difficulty. Till now, the research of stability and stabilization of stochastic neural networks with distributed parameters has not been considered.
