Motivated by the goal of having a building block in the direct design of data-driven controllers for nonlinear systems, we show how, for an unknown discrete-time bilinear system, the data collected in an offline open-loop experiment enable…
We show that any globally asymptotically controllable system on any smooth manifold can be globally stabilized by a state feedback. Since we allow discontinuous feedbacks, we interpret the solutions of our systems in the ``sample and hold''…
For an underactuated (simple) Hamiltonian system with two degrees of freedom and one degree of underactuation, a rather general condition that ensures its stabilizability, by means of the existence of a (simple) Lyapunov function, was found…
This paper investigates the robust asymptotic stabilization of a linear time-invariant (LTI) system by a static feedback with a static state quantization. It is shown that the controllable LTI system can be stabilized to zero in a finite…
In this paper, we study the problem of stabilizing switched linear systems when only limited information about the state and the mode of the system is available, which occurs in many applications involving networked switched systems (such…
Many recent works on stabilization of nonlinear systems target the case of locally stabilizing an unstable steady state solutions against small perturbation. In this work we explicitly address the goal of driving a system into a…
A nonlinear control system is said to be weakly contractive in the control if the flow that it generates is non-expanding (in the sense that the distance between two trajectories is a non-increasing function of time) for some fixed…
We investigate the stabilisation of nominally linear-affine switched systems with uncertain Lipschitz nonlinearities under dwell-time constraints, using a sampled-data switching law based on a state observer. We design the switching law…
Recent development of contraction theory based analysis of singularly perturbed system has opened the door for inspecting differential behavior of multi time-scale systems. In this paper a contraction theory based framework is proposed for…
For a general time-varying system, we prove that existence of an "Output Robust Control Lyapunov Function" implies existence of continuous time-varying feedback stabilizer, which guarantees output asymptotic stability with respect to the…
We provide a new global small-gain theorem for feedback interconnections of monotone input-output systems with multi-valued input-state characteristics. This extends a recent small-gain theorem of Angeli and Sontag for monotone systems with…
We establish asymptotic gain along with input-to-state practical stability results for disturbed semilinear systems w.r.t. the global attractor of the respective undisturbed system. We apply our results to a large class of nonlinear…
The paper provides results for a non-standard, hyperbolic, 1-D, nonlinear traffic flow model on a bounded domain. The model consists of two first-order PDEs with a dynamic boundary condition that involves the time derivative of the…
In this work, a predictive control framework is presented for feedback stabilization of nonlinear systems. To achieve this, we integrate Koopman operator theory with Lyapunov-based model predictive control (LMPC). The main idea is to…
Extensive numerical evidence shows that the assimilation of observations has a stabilizing effect on unstable dynamics, in numerical weather prediction and elsewhere. In this paper, we apply mathematically rigorous methods to showing why…
This paper concerns the small-time stabilization of some classes of mechanical systems which are not stabilizable by means of at least continuous state feedback laws. This is the case of nonholonomic mechanical systems, an example being the…
In this study, we propose new global stabilization approaches for a class of polynomial systems in both model-based and data-driven settings. The existing model-based approach guarantees global asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system…
Our aim in this paper is to investigate the asymptotic behavior of solutions of the perturbed linear fractional differential system. We show that if the original linear autonomous system is asymptotically stable then under the action of…
