  • We study some stability properties and asymptotic behavior for linear difference systems by using the results in [W. F. Trench: Linear asymptotic equilibrium and uniform, exponential, and strict stability of linear difference systems. Comput. Math. Appl. 36 (1998), no. 10-12, pp. 261-267].

  • We investigate the representation of the solution of discrete linear Volterra difference systems by means of the resolvent matrix and fundamental matrix, respectively, and then study the boundedness of the solutions of discrete Volterra systems by improving the assumptions and the proofs of Medina#s results in [6].

  • This paper proposes a model based trajectory tracking control scheme for under-actuated underwater robotic vehicles. The difficulty in stabilizing a non-linear system using smooth static state feedback law means that the design of a feedback controller for an under-actuated system is somewhat challenging. A necessary condition for the asymptotic stability of an under-actuated vehicle about a single equilibrium is that its gravitational field has nonzero elements corresponding to non-actuated dynamics. To overcome this condition, we propose a continuous time-varying control law based on the direct estimation of vehicle dynamic variables such as inertia, damping and Coriolis & centripetal terms. This can work satisfactorily under commonly encountered uncertainties such as an ocean current and parameter variations. The proposed control law cancels the non-linearities in the vehicle dynamics by introducing non-linear elements in the input side. Knowledge of the bounds on uncertain terms is not required and it is conceptually simple and easy to implement. The controller parameter values are designed using the Taguchi robust design approach and the control law is verified analytically to be robust under uncertainties, including external disturbances and current. A comparison of the controller performance with that of a linear proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller and sliding mode controller are also provided.

  • To investigate the critical buckling load and post-buckling behavior of an axially loaded pile entirely embedded in soil, the non-linear large deflection differential equation for a pinned pile, based on the Winkler-model and the discretionary distribution function of the foundation coefficient along pile shaft, was established by energy method. Assuming that the deflection function was a power series of some perturbation parameter according to the boundary condition and load in the pile, the non-linear large deflection differential equation was transformed to a series of linear differential equations by using perturbation approach. By taking the perturbation parameter at middle deflection, the higher-order asymptotic solution of load-deflection was then found. Effect of ratios of soil depth to pile length, and ratios of pile stiffness to soil stiffness on the critical buckling load and performance of piles (entirely embedded and partially embedded) after flexural buckling were analyzed. Results show that the buckling load capacity increases as the ratios of pile stiffness to soil stiffness increasing. The pile performance will be more stable when ratios of soil depth to pile length, and soil stiffness to pile stiffness decrease.

  • This Paper Proposes a design method of a fuzzy output feedback controller for the nonlinear systems with the unknown time- delay. Recently, Cao et ai. proposed a stabilization method for the nonlinear time-delay systems using a fuzzy controller when the time-delay is known. However, the time-delay is likely to be unknown in practical. We represent the nonlinear systems with the unknown time-delay by Takagi-Sugeno (T-5) fuzzy model and design the fuzzy observer and the parallel distributed compensation (PDC) law based on this observer. By applying Lyapunov-Krasovskii theorem to the closed-loop system, the sufficient condition for the asymptotic stability of the equilibrium Point is derived and converted into the linear matrix inequality (LMI) Problem.
