Stabilizability of uncontrollable systems via generalized delayed feedback control

In this paper, the stabilizability problem via a generalized delayed feedback control (GDFC) for uncontrollable discrete systems is addressed. For single-input uncontrollable systems, a necessary and sufficient condition of stabilizability via the GDFC is obtained, which completely describes the limitation of the GDFC. For multi-input systems, a new necessary condition is derived, which reveals the limitation of the GDFC more exactly than the odd number limitation. Moreover, for a class of nonlinear systems with uncertain parameters, a nonlinear robust GDFC is designed for the first time to stabilize the unknown fixed points associated with the uncertain parameters.     

Fuzzy adaptive synchronization of uncertain chaotic systems via delayed feedback control

Based on the T-S fuzzy model and the delayed feedback control (DFC) scheme, this Letter presents a robust synchronization strategy for a class of chaotic system with unknown parameters and disturbances. Being the response system, the designed robust observer can adaptively track the drive system globally. The T-S fuzzy model of the 4D chaotic system (Lorenz-Stenflo) is developed as an example for illustration. Numerical simulations are shown to verify the results.     

A sufficient condition for instability of equilibrium of non-conservative undamped systems

A new sufficient condition for instability of equilibrium of non-conservative undamped mechanical systems is established. This surprisingly simple analytical condition does not require spectral (eigenvalue) calculation.     

Stochastic linear generalized synchronization of chaotic systems via robust control

In this Letter, based on robust control, we provide a general theoretical result on stochastic linear generalized synchronization (GS) of chaotic systems. Given a driving system with noise perturbations and a linear synchronization function, a response system is developed easily according to the scheme derived here. By introducing the Lyapunov stability theory and linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), the condition for synchronization is proved to be effective. Finally, the Lorenz system is taken for illustration and verification.     

Projective synchronization of a class of delayed chaotic systems via impulsive control

The Letter studies the projective synchronization of a class of delayed chaotic systems. The drive-response system can be synchronized to within a desired scaling factor via impulsive control. Some sufficient conditions are derived by the stability analysis of the impulsive functional differential equations. An illustrative example is provided to show the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method and results.     

Partial eigenstructure assignment for undamped vibration systems using acceleration and displacement feedback

A new method for partial eigenstructure assignment using acceleration and displacement feedback for undamped vibration systems is presented in this paper. Firstly, a necessary and sufficient condition is proposed for the incremental mass and stiffness matrices that modify some eigenpairs while keeping other eigenpairs unchanged. Secondly, based on this condition, an algorithm for determining the required control gain matrices of acceleration and displacement feedback, which assign the desired eigenstructure, is developed. This algorithm is easy to implement, and works directly on the second-order system model. More importantly, the algorithm allows the control matrix to be specified beforehand and also leads naturally to a small norm solution of the feedback gain matrices. Finally, some numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed algorithm.     

Lag synchronization of chaotic systems with time-delayed linear terms via impulsive control

In this paper, the lag synchronization of chaotic systems with time-delayed linear terms via impulsive control is investigated. Based on the stability theory of impulsive delayed differential equations, some sufficient conditions are obtained guaranteeing the synchronized behaviours between two delayed chaotic systems. Numerical simulations on time-delayed Lorenz and hyperchaotic Chen systems are also carried out to show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. Note that under the scheme the chaotic system is controlled only at discrete time instants, and so it reduces the control cost in real applications.     

Stabilization of skyrmions via ϱ-mesons

It is shown that a skyrion can be stabilized by introducing ?-mesons into the chiral SU(2)_L × SU(2)_R lagrangian without higher-derivative terms like the Skyrme term. The ?-mesons are considered as dynamical gauge bosons associated with a hidden local symmetry of the non-linear sigma model. The lagrangian reduces to the Skyrme model in a limit of parameters. The Skyrmion mass M is found to be M = 1058 MeV when the parameters are fixed so as to satisfy the KSRF relation. It is also shown that a solition solution in a model with Ω-meson coupled with the baryonic current is a saddle-point solution.     

A comprehensive study of advanced information feedbacks in real-time intelligent traffic systems

In the intelligent transportation system, an effective feedback strategy is of crucial importance to the improvement of traffic condition and transport capability. Based on the seven previously introduced feedback strategies, a new one is introduced, called vacancy length feedback strategy (VLFS). The simulation results in the symmetrical two-route scenario with two exits suggest that VLFS is the optimal one among all the feedback strategies. It outperforms others in terms of the value, stability, average flux and balance of the vehicle number, and also exceeds others for the convenience of its application in the real traffic condition. The later simulation results in the asymmetrical two-route scenario with one exit also prove that VLFS is the best.     

Time-varying formation for general linear multi-agent systems via distributed event-triggered control under switching topologies

This paper investigates the time-varying formation problem for general linear multi-agent systems using distributed event-triggered control strategy.Different from the previous works,to achieve the desired time-varying formation,a distributed control scheme is designed in an event-triggered way,in which for each agent the controller is triggered only at its own event times.The interaction topology among agents is assumed to be switching.The common Lyapunov function as well as Riccati inequality is applied to solve the time-varying formation problem.Moreover,the Zeno behavior of triggering time sequences can be excluded for each agent.Finally,a simulation example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.     

Robust stabilization of state delayed discrete-time Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy systems with input saturation via an anti-windup fuzzy design

We consider the robust stabilization problem for discrete-time Takagi-Sugeno(T-S) fuzzy systems with timevaried delays subjected to input saturation.We design static and dynamic anti-windup fuzzy controllers to ensure the convergence of all admissible initial states within the domain of attraction.Based on the project lemma and classical sector conditions,the conditions for the existence of solutions to this problem are obtained and expressed in terms of a set of linear matrix inequalities.Finally,a numerical example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed design approach.

Fermi-Dirac quantization of linear systems

After discussing the Fermion analogues of classical mechanics, we show that in finite degrees of freedom, the Segal-Weinless construction of the vacuum representation is always possible. This amounts to an explicit construction of a complex structure J which extends real Euclidean space with orthogonal dynamics to a complex Hilbert space with unitary dynamics. Also, we solve the inverse problem, deducing the class of classical Hamiltonians, given the complex structure J.
