— Lyapunov methods and density functions provide dual characterizations of the solutions of a nonlinear dynamic system. This work exploits the idea of combining both techniques, ...
This paper presents Lyapunov functions for proving stability of steady gliding motions for vehicles with hydrodynamic or aerodynamic forces and moments. Because of lifting forces ...
Compensation of distributed delays in MIMO, LTI systems is achieved using Artstein's reduction method. In this technical note, we construct a Lyapunov functional for the resul...
Abstract— For a right-invariant and controllable driftless system on SU(n), we consider a time-periodic reference trajectory along which the linearized control system generates s...
In this paper, by introducing the concept of command-to-state/output mapping, it is shown that the state of an uncertain nonlinear system can robustly be estimated if command-to-s...
