⎯By employing the Lyapunov stability theory and linear matrix inequality (LMI) technique, delaydependent stability criterion is derived to ensure the exponential stability of bi-directional associative memory (BAM) neural networks with time-varying delays. The proposed condition can be checked easily by LMI control toolbox in Matlab. A numerical example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness...

The practical stability of a nonlinear nonautonomous Caputo fractional differential equation is studied using Lyapunov like functions. The novelty of this paper is based on the new definition of the derivative of a Lyapunov like function along the given fractional differential equation. Comparison results using this definition for scalar fractional differential equations are presented. Several ...

Necessary and sufficient conditions for Lyapunov stability, semistability and asymptotic stability of matrix second-order systems are given in terms of the coefficient matrices. Necessary and sufficient conditions for Lyapunov stability and instability in the absence of viscous damping are also given. These are used to derive several known stability and instability criteria as well as a few new...

Robust stability analysis of uncertain discrete time systems is studied. The LMI robust stability analysis method based on polynomial parameter dependent Lyapunov function is presented. This method is compared with other robust stability analysis methods formulated through LMI using linear parameter dependent Lyapunov function. The results are tested on randomly generated examples.

A novel method based on Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals for the stability analysis of linear systems with constant is introduced. The Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals are provided using polynomial parameters. Stability conditions are derived in the form of linear matrix inequalities. Examples show that these computationally tractable conditions can give tighter stability results than the ones in...

In this paper, the decomposition-aggregation method is used to carry out connective stability criteria for general linear composite system via aggregation. The large scale system is decomposed into a number of subsystems. By associating directed graphs with dynamic systems in an essential way, we define the relation between system structure and stability in the sense of Lyapunov. The stability ...

The problem of the stability of a linear system with an interval time-varying delay is investigated. A new Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional that fully uses information about the lower bound of the time-varying delay is constructed to derive new stability criteria. It is proved that the proposed Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional can lead to less conservative results than some existing ones. Based on ...
