Oscillatory behavior is ubiquitous in many natural and engineered systems, often emerging through self-regulating mechanisms. In this paper, we address the challenge of stabilizing a desired oscillatory pattern in a networked system where…
We address the feedback design problem for switched linear systems. In particular we aim to design a switched state-feedback such that the resulting closed-loop subsystems share the same eigenstructure. To this effect we formulate and…

A modification to the ${\cal L}_1$ control framework for uncertain systems with actuator delay is presented. Specifically, a time delay is introduced in the control input of the state predictor to compensate for the destabilizing effect of…
We study the synchronization of Kuramoto oscillators with all-to-all coupling in the presence of slow, noisy frequency adaptation. In this paper we develop a new model for oscillators which adapt both their phases and frequencies. It is…

We develop delay-compensating feedback laws for linear switched systems with time-dependent switching. Because the future values of the switching signal, which are needed for constructing an exact predictor-feedback law, may be unavailable…
We consider a networked control system (NCS) consisting of two plants, a global plant and a local plant, and two controllers, a global controller and a local controller. The global (resp. local) plant follows discrete-time stochastically…

The problem of robustly, asymptotically stabilizing a point (or a set) with two output-feedback hybrid controllers is considered. These control laws may have different objectives, e.g., the closed-loop systems resulting with each controller…
