Stability Analysis and Stabilization of Systems Presenting Nested Saturations

Passivity-Based Stability Analysis and Robust Practical Stabilization of Nonlinear Affine Systems with Non-vanishing Perturbations

This paper presents some analyses about the robust practical stability of a class of nonlinear affine systems in the presence of non-vanishing perturbations based on the passivity concept. The given analyses confirm the robust passivity property of the perturbed nonlinear systems in a certain region. Moreover, robust control laws are designed to guarantee the practical stability of the perturbe...

Asymptotic Stabilization of Delayed Systems with Input and Output Saturations

New Approach to Exponential Stability Analysis and Stabilization for Delayed T-S Fuzzy Markovian Jump Systems

This paper is concerned with delay-dependent exponential stability analysis and stabilization for continuous-time T-S fuzzy Markovian jump systems with mode-dependent time-varying delay. By constructing a novel Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and utilizing some advanced techniques, less conservative conditions are presented to guarantee the closed-loop system is mean-square exponentially stable....

Stability Analysis and Stabilization of Miduk Heap Leaching Structure, Iran

To construct copper heap leaching structures, a stepped heap of ore is placed over an isolated sloping surface and then washed with sulphuric acid. The isolated bed of such a heap consists of some natural and geosynthetic layers. Shear strength parameters between these layers are low, so they form the possible sliding surfaces of the heaps. Economic and environmental considerations call for stu...

Analysis and design of discrete-time linear systems with nested actuator saturations

This paper is concerned with the analysis and design of discrete-time linear systems subject to nested saturation functions. By utilizing a new compact convex hull representation of the saturation nonlinearity, a linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) based condition is obtained for testing the local and global stability of the considered nonlinear system. The estimation of the domain of attraction ...
