This study uses the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model to study the dynamic determinant factors that influence both long and short-term international tourism demand in Cambodia from 12 countries. The annual time series data (1994–2013) are used in this study. The study finds that only the international tourism demand model of Australia, Canada, Thailand, the United Kingdom, and USA are...

This paper investigates whether exports are the engine of production growth in forest industries in three countries. A bivariate autoregressive distributed lag model of production and exports was estimated with data of eleven forest industries from China, Finland, and the United States. Inferences were based on the short-run and long-run partial multipliers from exports to production by industr...

The objective of this paper is to investigate the long-run and short-run relationships among tourist arrivals to Malaysia and tourism price, substitute price, travelling cost, income and exchange rate for Asian7. The autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) bounds test approach developed by Pesaran et al. (2001) is employed in the analysis, and the data cover the period 1970 to 2004. The empirical...

Abstract: In this paper, we consider the stabilization problem of 1-d wave equation with input delay. Suppose that the wave system is fixed at one end whereas a control force is applied at other end. Here we consider the control force of the form αu(t) + βu(t − τ) where τ is the time delay. In this paper we find a feedback control law that stabilizes exponentially the system for any |α| ̸= |β| a...

This paper is devoted to nonlinear feedback design for irrigation canals. Such systems are classically described by Saint-Venant nonlinear partial differential equations. Here instead, an ordinary differential equation model (still nonlinear) with a state-dependent input delay is used, on the basis of a model previously proposed in Litrico et al [2003]. The control design approach is based on a...

Time-dependent Lyapunov functionals appeared to be very efficient for sampled-data systems. Recently, new Lyapunov functionals were constructed for sampled-data control in the presence of a constant input delay. The construction of these functionals was based on Wirtinger’s inequality leading to simplified and efficient stability conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities . In this artic...

This paper considers sampled-data control of linear systems under uncertain sampling with the known upper bound on the sampling intervals. Recently a discontinuous Lyapunov function method was introduced by using impulsive system representation of the sampled-data systems (Naghshtabrizi, Hespanha, & Teel, 2008). The latter method improved the existing results, based on the input delay approach ...

Suboptimálne riadenie systému s oneskorením na vstupe implicitným modelom The stabilization by feedback control of systems with input delays may be considered in various frameworks. In this paper the problem of implicit model following for input delay systems via optimal control is approached. The optimal control is implemented by piecewise constant signals that make it suboptimal. The simulati...
