This paper aims to introduce a design methodology to stabilize a chain of integrators in a fixed-time with predefined Upper Bound for the Settling-Time (UBST). This approach is based on time-varying gains (time-base generator) that become…
In this article we address the regularity of stable solutions to semilinear elliptic equations $-\Delta u = f(u)$ with MEMS type nonlinearities. More precisely, we will have $0\leq u \leq 1$ in a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ and…
