Sampled-data nonlinear observer design for chaos synchronization: A Lyapunov-based approach

This paper considers sampled-data based chaos synchronization using observers in the presence of measurement noise for a large class of chaotic systems. We study discretized model of chaotic systems which are perturbed by white noise and employ Lyapunov-like theorems to come up with a simple yet effective observer design. For the choice of observer gain, a suboptimal criterion is obtained in terms of LMI. We present semiglobal as well as global results. The proposed scheme can also be extended for discrete-time chaotic systems. Numerical simulations have been carried out to verify the effectiveness of theoretical results.     

Global stability for n-species lotka-volterra systems with delay,ii: reducible cases,sufficiency

In this paper an n-species delayed Lotka-Volterra system without de1ayed intraspecific competitions is considered. It is proved that the system is globally stable for all off-diagonal delays T_ij≥0 provided the interaction matrix A of the system satisfies the weakly diagonally dominant Condition (WDD)     

State diagrams of arabinoxylan-water binaries

Since Arabinoxylans are natural polysaccharides that seem promising candidates as cryostabilizers, the state diagram (i.e. the representation in the temperature-composition plan of the macroscopic phases) of their aqueous solutions seemed worth determining.

Two lots of purified water extractable arabinoxylans (WEA) of different molecular mass (56 and 410 kDa labeled as LMW-AX and HMW-AX, respectively) were used to prepare aqueous solutions of various composition. These were cooled below their freezing point and annealed for 2 h at a suitable temperature before a DSC 5°C min⁻¹ heating run aimed at determining their primary glass transition temperature, T_g′, and the onset of ice fusion. Once the corresponding composition, C_g′, was assessed, the main curves of the corresponding state diagram were drawn.

As expected, the T_g′ value drawn for HMW-AX was higher (−17°C) than for LMW-AX (−35°C). The C_g′ was instead found close to 75% w/w for both HMW-AX and LMW-AX. The fictitiousness of this coincidence could be easily recognized by expressing the solute concentration in molar fraction, X: it was then possible to verify that, as expected, X_g′ for LMW-AX was one order of magnitude larger than for HLW-AX.     

A new formulation of some discrete-time stochastic-parameter state estimation problems

Linear unbiased full-order state estimation problem for discrete-time models with stochastic parameters and additive finite energy type disturbance signals is reformulated in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Two estimation problems that are considered are the design for mean-square bounded estimation error and the design for the mean-square stochastic version of the suboptimal H_∞ estimator. These two designs are shown to apply to both the estimation with random sensor delay and estimation under observation uncertainty.     

Optimality conditions for state constrained nonlinear control problems

The problem of optimal control of nonlinear control and state constrained control problems, where the state constraint may involve differential operators and the cost functionals may be nonsmooth, is studied. For this class of problems, necessary optimality conditions using techniques from infinite dimensional optimization theory adapted to the framework of control problems are derived. It is shown that the underlying structure admits a considerable relaxation of the classical constraint qualifications. The theory then is applied to examples of various nonlinear elliptic equations and state constraints.

On the instability of differential systems with varying delay

The unstable properties of the null solution of the nonautonomous delay system x′(t)=A(t)x(t)+B(t)x(t−r₁(t))+f(t,x(t),x(t−r₂(t))) are examined; the nonconstant delays r₁, r₂ are assumed to be continuous bounded functions. The case A=constant is reviewed, where a theorem, recalling the Perron instability theorem for ordinary differential equations, is obtained.     

Asymptotic Analysis of State Constrained Semilinear Optimal Control Problems

The asymptotic behavior of state-constrained semilinear optimal control problems for distributed-parameter systems with variable compact control zones is investigated. We derive conditions under which the limiting problems can be made explicit. We gratefully acknowledge the support of the DAAD. The paper was prepared during the visit of the first author at the Institute of Applied Mathematics II, University Erlangen-Nuremberg in 2003.

Robust stabilization of uncertain linear dynamical systems with time-varying delay

In this paper, the problem of the robust stabilization for a class of uncertain linear dynamical systems with time-varying delay is considered. By making use of an algebraic Riccati equation, we derive some sufficient conditions for robust stability of time-varying delay dynamical systems with unstructured or structured uncertainties. In our approach, the only restriction on the delay functionh(t) is the knowledge of its upper boundh ^–. Some analytical methods are employed to investigate these stability conditions. Since these conditions are independent of the delay, our results are also applicable to systems with perturbed time delay. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the use of the sufficient conditions developed in this paper.
