This paper proposes a linear matrix inequality (LMI)-based fuzzy fast terminal sliding mode control (FFTSM) approach for multi-input multi-output (MIMO) system. design aims to achieve the finite-time convergence of system trajectories their desired values, while at same time eliminating chattering problem. Finite-time stability is proven using Lyapunov theory and parameters are obtained LMI app...

We investigate the degree to which Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans reached small businesses in low- and moderate-income (LMI) communities. use PPP loan data from Small Business Administration that we geocode link census tracts. assess program’s reach a few ways focus on number of loans, rather than amount funds, went different areas order capture impact with fewer 50 employees—the vast ...

The guaranteed-performance consensus tracking (GPCT) for non-linear multi-agent systems (MASs) with switching communication topologies is presented. Different from the existing work, range of one-sided Lipschitz MASs wider than ones, and upper bound performance given while achieving tracking. First, a control protocol proposed, where regulation involved. Then, by linear matrix inequality (LMI),...

In an experiment, input sequence is applied to unknown linear time-invariant system (in continuous or discrete time) affected also by unknown-but-bounded disturbance sequence; the corresponding state (and derivative sequence, in measured. The goal design directly from and sequences a controller that enforces certain performance specification on transient behaviour of system. expressed through s...

This article is concerned with the strong stability problem of linear continuous-time delay-difference equations multiple time delays. A family matrix inequalities (LMIs), indexed by a positive integer k, derived to assess stability. time-domain interpretation proposed LMI-based condition given in terms quadratic integral Lyapunov functional, which allows us reveal relations an existing result....
