This paper considers the global exponential stability of delay neural networks with impulsive perturbations. By establishing a new impulsive delay inequality which is different from the earlier publication, we obtain some new sufficient conditions ensuring exponential stability of the equilibrium point for such neural networks. The neural networks model considered include the impulsive delay Ho...

In this paper, a class of impulsive functional differential systems is investigated. It is proved that for the asymptotic stability of the zero solution of the system considered, it is sufficient that only some components of the right-hand side of the system are bounded for unbounded values of time. For functional differential equations without impulses, similar results were proved by Burton an...

We introduce and study a Gompertz model with time delay and impulsive perturbations on the prey. By using the discrete dynamical system determined by the stroboscopic map, we obtain the sufficient conditions for the existence and global attractivity of the “predator-extinction” periodic solution. With the theory on the delay functional and impulsive differential equation, we obtain the appropri...

This paper is devoted to investigating mean square stability of a class of stochastic reactiondiffusion systems with Markovian switching and impulsive perturbations. Based on Lyapunov functions and stochastic analysis method, some new criteria are established. Moreover, a class of semilinear stochastic impulsive reaction-diffusion differential equations with Markovian switching is discussed and...

A dynamic mathematical model of fish algae consumption with an impulsive control strategy is proposed and analyzed in detail. It is shown that the system has a globally asymptotically stable algae-eradication periodic solution which can be obtained using the Floquet theory of impulsive differential equations and small-amplitude perturbation techniques. The conditions for the permanence of the s...

A general predator-prey system is studied in a scheme where there is periodic impulsive perturbations. This scheme has the potential to protect the predator from extinction but under some conditions may also serve to lead to extinction of the prey. Conditions for extinction and permanence are obtained via the comparison methods involving monotone theory of impulsive systems and multiple Liapuno...

We tested an innovative method to estimate joint stiffness and damping during multijoint unfettered arm movements. The technique employs impulsive perturbations and a time-frequency analysis to estimate the arm's mechanical properties along a reaching trajectory. Each single impulsive perturbation provides a continuous estimation on a single-reach basis, making our method ideal to investigate m...
