We establish exponential stability of nonlinear time-varying impulsive systems by employing Lyapunov functions with discontinuity at the impulse times. Our stability conditions ha...
Planar linear motors Sawyer motors have been used in industry as open-loop stepping motors, but their robustness and versatility has been limited. Using a sensor recently integrat...
This paper addresses the problem of reducing the hysteresis found in the actuation of most smart materials. They are divided in two groups: systems with no saturation (e.g. piezoe...
This paper proposes a quadratic programming (QP) approach to robust model predictive control (MPC) for constrained linear systems having both model uncertainties and bounded distu...
This paper deals with global disturbance rejection of nonlinear systems. The disturbance is assumed to be sinusoidal with completely unknown phases, amplitude, and frequencies, bu...
