In this paper, we present a new stability analysis of switched systems. We introduce the concepts of minimum/maximum holding time and redundancy as a tool for Lyapunov stability. ...
This paper describes a systematic procedure to exponentially stabilize relative equilibria of mechanical systems. We review the notion of relative equilibria and their stability i...
The use of linear quadratic theory in bumpless transfer is discussed and a modification to a similar scheme proposed in [9] is suggested. Formulae are given for a feedback element...
This paper is concerned with the characterization of all nonlinear stabilizing controllers. Observer based kernel representations are introduced to avoid the difficulty which occu...
