The historical development of classical stability concepts: Lagrange, Poisson and Lyapunov stability
نویسندگان
چکیده
A brief historical overview is given which discusses the development of classical stability concepts, starting in the seventeenth century and finally leading to the concept of Lyapunov stability at the beginning of the twentieth century. The aim of the paper is to find out how various scientists thought about stability and to which extent their work is related to the stability concepts bearing their names, i.e. Lagrange, Poisson and Lyapunov stability. To this end, excerpts of original texts are discussed in detail. Furthermore, the relationship between the various works is addressed.

Stability analysis of impulsive fuzzy differential equations with finite delayed state
In this paper we introduce some stability criteria for impulsive fuzzy system of differential equations with finite delay in states. Firstly, a new comparison principle for fuzzy differential system compared to crisp ordinary differential equation, based on a notion of upper quasi-monotone nondecreasing, in N dimentional state space is presented. Furthermore, in order to analyze the stability o...
متن کاملStability analysis of nonlinear hybrid delayed systems described by impulsive fuzzy differential equations
In this paper we introduce some stability criteria of nonlinear hybrid systems with time delay described by impulsive hybrid fuzzy system of differential equations. Firstly, a comparison principle for fuzzy differential system based on a notion of upper quasi-monotone nondecreasing is presented. Here, for stability analysis of fuzzy dynamical systems, vector Lyapunov-like functions are defined....
متن کاملStability analysis for stochastic hybrid systems: A survey
This survey addresses stability analysis for stochastic hybrid systems (SHS), which are dynamical systems that combine continuous change and instantaneous change and that also include random effects. We reemphasize the common features found in most of the models that have appeared in the literature, which include stochastic switched systems, Markov jump systems, impulsive stochastic systems, sw...
متن کاملPartial Stability of Dynamical Systems
Important variants and complements to the original Lyapunov and Lagrange stability concepts are corresponding notions concerning partial stability. For a given motion of a dynamical system, say x(t, x0, t0) = (y(t, x0, t0), z(t, x0, t0)), partial stability concerns the qualitative behavior of the y-component of the motion, relative to disturbances in the entire initial vector x(t0, x0, t0) = x0...
متن کاملFuzzy Lyapunov stability and exponential stability in control systems
Fuzzy control systems have had various applications in a wide range of science and engineering in recent years. Since an unstable control system is typically useless and potentially dangerous, stability is the most important requirement for any control system (including fuzzy control system). Conceptually, there are two types of stability for control systems: Lyapunov stability (a special case ...
