The robust stability problems for nominally linear system with nonlinear, structured perturbations arc considered with Lyapunov direct method. The Lyapunov direct method has been utilized to determine the bounds for nonlinear, time-dependent functions which can be tolerated by a stable nominal system. In most cases quadratic forms are used either as components of vector Lyapunov function or as a function itself. The resulting estimates are usually conservative. As it is known, often the conservatism of the bounds we propose to use a piecewise quadratic Lyapunov function. An example demonstrates application of the proposed method.

The paper deals with asymtotic stabillity of nonlinear nonautinomous systems by Lyapunov's direct method. The proposed Lyapunov-like function V(t, x) needs not be continuous in t and Lipschitz in x in a Banach space. The class of systems considered is allowed to be nonautonomous and infinite-dimensional and we relax the boundedness, the Lipschitz assumption on the system and the definite decrescent condition on the Lyapunov function.

The recently proposed control method using a Lyapunov-like function can give global asymptotic stability to a system with mismatched uncertainties if the uncertainties are bounded by a known function and the uncontrolled system is locally and asymptotically stable. In this paper, we modify the method so that it can be applied to a system not satisfying the latter condition without deteriorating qualitative performance. The assured stability in this case is uniform ultimate boundedness which is as useful as global asymptotic stability in the sense that it is global and the bound can be taken arbitrarily small. By the proposed control law we can deal with both matched and mismatched uncertain systems. The above facts conclude that Lyapunov-like control method is superior to any other Lyapunov direct methods in its applicability to uncertain systems.

In this paper, the new approach and technique are introduced and derived from the original Lyapunov direct method which is used to decide the stability of system conveniently. This proposed technique modifies the formal concepts of the sufficient conditions of Lyapunov stability and is able to generate the methods for the robust design of control systems. Also, it applies to the dynamic systems with bounded perturbations and the results of the computer program using the new concept are compared with those of previous research papers and conventional Lyapunov direct method. It is possible to recognize the practical improvements of the estimation of robustness bounds of the systems.

Most of the theorems of nonlinear stability is based on the Lyapunov stability theory. The Lyapunov function method is the most well-known and provides precise and rigorous theoretical backgrounds. However, tile conventional approach to direct stability analysis has been performed without taking account of damping effects. For accurate stability analysis of nonlinear systems, it is required to consider the damping effects. This paper presents a new method to derive a group of Lyapunov functions to reflect the damping effects by considering the integral relationships of the system governing equations. This method tan be utilized as a powerful tool to determine the region of attraction.

In this paper, a direct adaptive tracking controller based Lyapunov method is designed for a wheeled mobile robots. A wheeled mobile robots have three degrees of freedom and two control variables. Therefore, it is difficult to control a mobile robot using the general linear control. We introduce two kinds of Lyapunov function for the design of the controller and verify the controller. A mobile robots using the designed adaptive direct tracking controller is well-behaved and is easily implemented.

The purpose of this paper is the application of the techniques for the new estimation of robustness for the aircraft systems having structured uncertainties. The basic ideas to analyze the system which is the originally nonlinear is Lyapunov direct theorems. The nonlinear systems have various forms of terms inside the system equations and this investigation is confined in the form of bounded uncertainties. The number of uncertainties will be the degree of freedoms in the calculation of the robust stability regions called the robustness bounds. This proposition adopts the theoretical analysis of the Lyapunov direct methods, that is, the sign properties of the Lyapunov function derivative integrated along finite intervals of time, in place of the original method of the sign properties of the time derivative of the Lyapunov function itself. This is the new sufficient criteria to relax the stability condition and is used to generate techniques for the robust design of control systems with structured perturbations. Using this relaxing stability conditions, in this paper, the quadratic form of Lyapunov function is utilized. In this paper, the practical system of vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft is analyzed with the proposed stability criteria based upon the Lyapunov direct method. The application of numerical procedures can prove the improvements in estimations of robustness with structured uncertainties. The applicable aircraft system is assumed to be linear with time-varying with nonlinear bounded perturbations.

To control the depth of an underwater glider, a control method by using Lyapunov's direct method is proposed. The underwater glider has a torpedo-shape hull, a movable mass in the hull, and an inflatable buoyancy bag in the hull, but doesn't have large wings that increase the lift force for the conventional underwater glider. The control laws to adjust the position of the movable mass and the mass of the inflatable buoyancy bag are derived. For a selected speed and an angle of attack, we simulated the operation of the underwater glider using Matlab/Simulink. The efficiency of the proposed controller is shown in the fact that the control effort is active during only a short period of time when the zigzag trajectory is changed from downward to upward or vice versa.

This paper gives derivations of voltage collapse conditions by using the Lyapunov function, which yields the exactly same results with the sensitivity analysis approach. On the other hand, the voltage collapse phenomenon is interpreted in the physical sense, and causes of the static voltage unstability and the dynamic voltage unstability are analyzed with the use of proposed Lyapunov function. In addition a new method is developed to calculate the power capacity limit of transmission lines with respect to voltage stability. This paper shows that it is able to analyze the voltage collapse with the Lyapunov direct method in the simple 2-bus system and proposes that the method works well by observing the variation of Lyapunov function as the load is increased in the system.

The scope of this paper is focused to the systems which have the time period and they should be necessarily studied in the sense of stability and design method of controller to stabilize the orignal unstable systems. In general, the time periodic systems or the systems having same motions during certain time interval are easily found in rotating motion device, i.e., satellite or helicopter and widely used in factory automation systems. The characteristics of the selected dynamic systems are analyzed with the new stability concept and stabilization control method based on Lyapunov direct method. The new method from Lyapunov stability criteria which satisfies the energy convergence is studied with linear algebraic method. And the numerical procedures are developed with computational programming method to apply to the practical linear periodic systems. The results from this paper demonstrate the usefulness in analysis of the asymptotic stability and stabilization of the unstable linear periodic system by using the developed simulation procedures.
