The paper presents an approach to the construction of stabilizing feedback for strongly nonlinear systems. The class of systems of interest includes systems with drift which are affine in control and which cannot be stabilized by continuous…
The classical Andronov-Vyshnegradsky problem, which deals with locating regions of stability and oscillations in control systems with a Watt regulator, is solved using a divergence method for studying the stability of dynamic systems. This…
In this work we show that given a nonlinear programming problem, it is possible to construct a family of dynamical systems defined on the feasible set of the given problem, so that: (a) the equilibrium points are the unknown critical points…
This article is concerned with stability analysis and stabilization of randomly switched nonlinear systems. These systems may be regarded as piecewise deterministic stochastic systems: the discrete switches are triggered by a stochastic…
This paper proposes a new adaptation methodology to find the control inputs for a class of nonlinear systems with time-varying bounded uncertainties. The proposed method does not require any prior knowledge of the uncertainties including…
This article proposes an approach to construct a Lyapunov function for a linear coupled impulsive system consisting of two time-invariant subsystems. In contrast to various variants of small-gain stability conditions for coupled systems,…
This paper deals with the stability analysis of a mass-spring system subject to friction using Lyapunov-based arguments. As the described system presents a stick-slip phenomenon, the mass may then periodically sticks to the ground. The…
Finding Lyapunov functions to certify the stability of control systems has been an important topic for verifying safety-critical systems. Most existing methods on finding Lyapunov functions require access to the dynamics of the system.…
We present the stability analysis for the new regulation-triggered approach to adaptive control introduced in a companion paper. Due to the fact that the closed-loop system is hybrid, our proofs have essential differences from the…
This note studies (practical) asymptotic stability of nonlinear networked control systems whose protocols are not necessarily uniformly globally exponentially stable. In particular, we propose a Lyapunov-based approach to establish…
In this paper, we consider the data-driven discovery of stable dynamical models with a single equilibrium. The proposed approach uses a basis-function parameterization of the differential equations and the associated Lyapunov function. This…
Railway tracks rest on a foundation known for exhibiting nonlinear viscoelastic behavior. Railway track deflections are modeled by a semilinear partial differential equation. This paper studies the stability of solutions to this equation in…
In this article, we present a new scheme that approximates unknown sensorimotor models of robots by using feedback signals only. The formulation of the uncalibrated sensor-based regulation problem is first formulated, then, we develop a…
We provide a distributed coordinated approach to the stability analysis and control design of large-scale nonlinear dynamical systems by using a vector Lyapunov functions approach. In this formulation the large-scale system is decomposed…
A dynamic backstepping method is proposed to design controllers for nonlinear systems in the pure-feedback form, for which the traditional backstepping method suffers from solving the implicit nonlinear algebraic equation. The idea of this…
Finding a control Lyapunov function (CLF) in a dynamical system with a controller is an effective way to guarantee stability, which is a crucial issue in safety-concerned applications. Recently, deep learning models representing CLFs have…
A boundary feedback stabilisation problem of non-uniform linear hyperbolic systems of balance laws with additive disturbance is discussed. A continuous and a corresponding discrete Lyapunov function is defined. Using an…
We propose new methods for learning control policies and neural network Lyapunov functions for nonlinear control problems, with provable guarantee of stability. The framework consists of a learner that attempts to find the control and…
Robust stabilization conditions for uncertain switched affine systems subject to a unitary input delay are presented. They are obtained through the Lyapunov framework and a min-switching state-feedback predictive control law. The result…
