A delay-dependent passivity criterion of linear neutral delay systems

The problem of delay-dependent stability and passivity for linear neutral systems is discussed. By constructing a novel type Lyapunov-krasovskii functional, a new delay-dependent passivity criterion is presented in terms of linear matrix inequalities （LMIs）. Model transformation, bounding for cross terms and selecting free weighting matrices [12-14] are not required in the arguments. Numerical examples show that the proposed criteria are available and less conservative than existing results .

Robust H-infinity reliable control for a class of nonlinear uncertain neutral delay systems

This paper focuses on the robust H-infinity reliable control for a class of nonlinear neutral delay systems with uncertainties and actuator failures. We design a state feedback controller in terms of linear matrix inequality(LMI)such that the plant satisfies robust H-infinity performance for all admissible uncertainties, and actuator failures among a prespecified subset of actuators. An example is also given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Delay and Its Time-derivative Dependent Robust Stability of Uncertain Neutral Systems with Saturating Actuators

This note concerns the problem of the robust stability of uncertain neutral systems with time-varying delay and saturating actuators. The system considered is continuous in time with norm bounded parametric uncertainties. By incorporating the free weighing matrix approach developed recently, some new delay-dependent stability conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities （LMIs） with some tuning parameters are obtained. An estimate of the domain of attraction of the closed-loop system under a priori designed controller is proposed. The approach is based on a polytopic description of the actuator saturation nonlinearities and the Lyapunov- Krasovskii method. Numerical examples are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design method.

Asymptotic Analysis of Linear and Interval Linear Fractional-Order Neutral Delay Differential Systems Described by the Caputo-Fabrizio Derivative

Asymptotic stability of linear and interval linear fractional-order neutral delay differential systems described by the Caputo-Fabrizio (CF) fractional derivatives is investigated. Using Laplace transform, a novel characteristic equation is derived. Stability criteria are established based on an algebraic approach and norm-based criteria are also presented. It is shown that asymptotic stability is ensured for linear fractional-order neutral delay differential systems provided that the underlying stability criterion holds for any delay parameter. In addition, sufficient conditions are derived to ensure the asymptotic stability of interval linear fractional order neutral delay differential systems. Examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness and applicability of the theoretical results.

Dynamical output feedback stabilization for neutral systems with mixed delays

This paper is concerned with the issue of stabilization for the linear neutral systems with mixed delays. The attention is focused on the design of output feedback controllers which guarantee the asymptotical stability of the closed-loop systems. Based on the model transformation of neutral type, the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional method is employed to establish the delay-dependent stability criterion. Then, through the controller parameterization and some matrix transformation techniques, the desired parameters are determined under the delay-dependent design condition in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), and the desired controller is explicitly formulated. A numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Robust Stability Criteria for Neutral Systems with Interval Time-Varying Delays and Nonlinear Perturbations

This paper investigates the problem of delay-dependent robust stability analysis for a class of neutral systems with interval time-varying delays and nonlinear perturbations. Such nonlinear perturbations are with time-varying but norm-bounded characteristics. Based on a new Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, together ,sith a free-weighting matrices technique, improved delay-dependent stability criteria are established. It is shown that less conservative results can be obtained in terms of linear matrix inequalities （LMIs）. Numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness and less conservatism of the proposed approach.

This paper focuses on the problem of non-fragile decentralized guaranteed cost control for uncertain neutral large-scale interconnected systems with time-varying delays in state,control input and interconnections.A novel scheme,viewing the interconnections with time-varying delays as effective information but not disturbances,is developed.Based on Lyapunov stability theory,using various techniques of decomposing and magnifying matrices,a design method of the non-fragile decentralized guaranteed cost controller for unperturbed neutral large-scale interconnected systems is proposed and the guaranteed cost is presented.The further results are derived for the uncertain case from the criterion of unperturbed neutral large-scale interconnected systems.Finally,an illustrative example shows that the results are significantly better than the existing results in the literatures.

ROBUST STABILITY FOR DEGENERATE NEUTRAL SYSTEMS WITH MIXED TIME-VARYING DELAYS

This paper concerns the stability and robust stability criteria for degenerate neu-tral systems with mixed time-varying delays. A method based on the stability of a new operator D and the linear matrix inequalities is presented that makes it easy to calculate both the upper stability bounds and the free weighting matrices. Since the criteria take the time-varying delays and degenerate neutral systems into account, they are less conservative than previous methods. The Matlab LMI toolbox illustrates the impro...
