Finite time stabilization of time-delay nonlinear systems with uncertainty and time-varying delay

In this paper, the problem of finite-time stability and finite-time stabilization for a specific class of dynamical systems with nonlinear functions in the presence time-varying delay and norm-bounded uncertainty terms is investigated. Nonlinear functions are considered to satisfy the Lipchitz conditions. At first, sufficient conditions to guarantee the finite-time stability for time-delay nonl...

Second Order Sliding Mode Control With Finite Time Convergence

In this paper, a new smooth second order sliding mode control is proposed. This algorithm is a modified form of Super Twisting algorithm. The Super Twisting guarantees the asymptotic stability, but the finite time stability of proposed method is proved with introducing a new particular Lyapunov function. The Proposed algorithm which is able to control nonlinear systems with matched structured u...

Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis of Bending of Straight Beams Using hp-Spectral Approximations

Displacement finite element models of various beam theories have been developed using traditional finite element interpolations (i.e., Hermite cubic or equi-spaced Lagrange functions). Various finite element models of beams differ from each other in the choice of the interpolation functions used for the transverse deflection w, total rotation φ and/or shear strain γxz, or in the integral form u...

Nonlinear Guidance Law with Finite Time Convergence Considering Control Loop Dynamics

In this paper a new nonlinear guidance law with finite time convergence is proposed. The second order integrated guidance and control loop is formulated considering a first order control loop dynamics. By transforming the state equations to the normal form, a finite time stabilizer feedback linearization technique is proposed to guarantee the finite time convergence of the system states to zero...

Finite Groups With a Certain Number of Elements Pairwise Generating a Non-Nilpotent Subgroup

FINITE GROUPS WITH FIVE NON-CENTRAL CONJUGACY CLASSES

‎Let G be a finite group and Z(G) be the center of G‎. ‎For a subset A of G‎, ‎we define kG(A)‎, ‎the number of conjugacy classes of G that intersect A non-trivially‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we verify the structure of all finite groups G which satisfy the property kG(G-Z(G))=5, and classify them‎.
