Combination of Lyapunov functions and density functions for stability of rotational motion
— 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, ...

Nonlinear gliding stability and control for vehicles with hydrodynamic forcing
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 ...

Lyapunov stability of linear predictor feedback for distributed input delays
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...

A time-periodic Lyapunov approach for motion planning of controllable driftless systems on SU(n)
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...

Robust state observer and control design using command-to-state mapping
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...
