Stability, L2-gain analysis and state-feedback H∞ control of linear systems with uncertain time-varying delays are considered in the case, where the nominal values of delays are constant and non-zero. A new construction of Lyapunov–Krasovskii functionals (LKFs) is introduced: to a nominal LKF, which is appropriate to the system with nominal delays, terms are added that correspond to the perturb...

In this paper, we study the instability of the zero solution to a nonlinear differential equation with variable delay. By using the Lyapunov functional approach, some sufficient conditions for instability of the zero solution are obtained. Keywords—Instability, Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, delay differential equation, fifth order.

The paper shows that the global exponential stability property is preserved, under suitably fast sampling and small input-delay, whenever the dynamics of the time-delay system at hand and the related stabilizing (in continuous-time) state feedback are described by globally Lipschitz maps. The Halanay’s inequality is used in order to prove this result. Continuous-time, possibly non-affine in the...

The problems of robust stability and stabilization via memoryless state feedback for a class of discrete-time switched singular systems with time-varying delays and linear fractional uncertainties are investigated. By constructing a novel switched Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional, a delay-dependent criterion for the unforced system to be regular, causal and uniformly asymptotically stable is esta...

We present a dual form of Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional which allows the problem of controller synthesis of multi-delay systems to be formulated and solved in a convex manner. First, we give a generalized version of the dual stability condition formulated in terms of Lyapunov operators which are positive, self-adjoint and preserve the structure of the statespace. Second, we provide a class of ...

In this paper, the problem of stability for networked control systems (NCSs) is investigated. Considering both the time-varying network-induced delay and data packet dropouts, NCSs are transformed into typical linear systems with interval time-varying delay. Based on the obtained model, a new delay-dependent stability criteria in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) is provided by constru...

This paper deals with the problem of stability analysis for networked control systems via the time-delayed system approach. The network-induced delays are modeled as two additive time-varying delays in the closed-loop system. To check the stability of such particular featured systems, an appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is proposed and the Jensen inequality lemma is applied to the int...

The fuzzy H∞ filter design problem for T-S fuzzy systems with interval time-varying delay is investigated. The delay is considered as the time-varying delay being either differentiable uniformly bounded with delay derivative in bounded interval or fast varying with no restrictions on the delay derivative . A novel Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is employed and a tighter upper bound of its deriv...
