In this paper, the standard Dole, Glover, Khargoneker, and Francis (abbr. : DGKF 1989) $H_{\infty}$ controller $(H_{\infty}C)$ is extended to the nonlinear feedback linearization-$H_\infty$-based sliding mode controller (NFL-$H_\infty$-based SMC). A stability proof of the closed-loop stability is done by a Lyapunov function candidate using an addition form of the sliding surface vector and the estimation error.

The analysis of distribution line faults is essential to the proper protection of power system. A high impedance fault(HIF) dose not make enough current to cause conventional protective device operating, so it is well known that undesirable operating conditions and certain types of faults on electric distribution feeders cannot be detected by using conventional protection system. In this paper, we prove that the nature of the high impedance faults is indeed a deterministic chaos, not a random motion. Algorithms for estimating Lyapunov spectrum and the largest Lyapunov exponent are applied to various fault currents detections in order to evaluate the orbital instability peculiar to deterministic chaos dynamically, and fractal dimensions of fault currents which represent geometrical self-similarity are calculated. Wavelet transform analysis is applied the time-scale information to fault signal. Time-scale representation of high impedance faults can detect easily and localize correctly the fault waveform.

In this paper, we consider the problem of robust stability of large-scale uncertain linear systems with time-varying delays. The considered uncertainties are both unstructured uncertainty which is only known its norm bound and structured uncertainty which is known its structure. Based on Lyapunov stability theorem and $H_{\infty}$ theory. we present uncertainty upper bound that guarantee the robust stability of systems. Especially, robustness bound are obtained directly without solving the Lyapunov equation. Finally, we show the usefulness of our results by numerical example.

This paper focuses on the $H_{\infty}$ filter design problem for offshore steel jacket platforms. Its objective is to design a full-order state observer for offshore platforms in presence of unknown disturbances. To make the method more practical, it is assumed that the measured variables are available at discrete-time instants with time-varying sampling time intervals. By modelling the sampling intervals as a bounded time-varying delay, the estimation error system is expressed as a time-delay system. As a result, the addressed problem can be transformed to the problem of stability of dynamic error between the system and the state estimator. Then, based on the Lyapunov-Krasovskii Functional (LKF), a stability criterion is obtained in the form of Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs). According to the stability criterion, a sufficient condition on designing the state estimator gain is obtained. In the end, the proposed method is applied to an offshore platform to show its effectiveness.

In this paper, a robust controller is proposed to control a robot manipulator which is governed by highly nonlinear dynamic equations. The controller is computationally efficient since it does not require the dynamic model or parameter values of a robot manipulator. It, however, requires uncertainty bounds which are derived by using properties of revolute joint robot dynamics. The stability of the robot with the controller is proved by using Lyapunov's direct method. The results of computer simulations also show that the robot system is stable, and has excellent trajectory tracking performance.

The objective of this paper is to characterize dynamic pressure traces measured at self-excited combustion instabilities occurring in two combustion systems of different hardware. One system is a model lean premixed gas turbine combustor and the other a fullscale bipropellant liquid rocket thrust chamber. It is commonly observed in both systems that low frequency waves at around 300㎐ are first excited at the onset of combustion instabilities and after a short duration, the instability mode becomes coupled to the resonant acoustic modes of the combustion chamber, the first longitudinal mode for the lean premixed combustor and the first tangential mode for the rocket thrust chamber. Low frequency waves seem to get excited at first since flame shows the higher heat release response on the lower frequency perturbations with the smaller phase differences between heat release and pressure fluctuations. Nonlinear time series analysis of pressure traces reveals that even stable combustion might have chaotic behavior with the positive maximum Lyapunov exponent. Also, pressure fluctuations under combustion instabilities reach a limit cycle or quasi-periodic oscillations at the very similar run conditions, which manifest that a self-excited high frequency instability has strong nonlinear characteristics.

In this paper, a robust recursive control approach for nonlinear system, which is based on Lyapunov stability, is proposed. The proposed method can apply to extended systems including cascaded systems and the stability is guaranteed in the sense of Lyapunov. The recursive design procedure so called “robust recursive control approach” is used to find a stabilizing robust controller and simultaneously estimate the uncertainty parameters. First, a nonlinear model with uncertainties whose bounds are unknown is derived. Then, unknown bounds of uncertainties are estimated. By using these estimates, the stabilizing robust controller is updated at each step. This approach is applied to the pitch autopilot design of a nonlinear missile system and simulation results indicate good performance.

In this paper, we propose a delayed feedback guaranteed cost controller design method for linear time-delay systems with norm-bounded parameter uncertainties and nonlinear perturbations. A quadratic cost function is considered as the performance measure for the given system. Based on the Lyapunov method, an LMI optimization problem is formulated to design a controller such that the closed-loop cost function value is not more than a specified upper bound for all admissible system uncertainties and nonlinear perturbations. Numerical example show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this paper we propose a control law using a Lyapunov-like function that makes stable the systems which have mis-matched uncertainties. The existing control law using a Lyapunov-like function, which gives global saymptotic stability, is designed under the assumption of a targetsystem to be stable locally. But we broaden here the class of target systems by designing the control law which can give uniform ultimate boundedness to even the systems not satisfing the locally asymptotic stability. And we also show that the control law giving global asymptotic stability can be designed more systematically through using the uniform ultimate boundedness.

This paper is on a discrete controller order reduction with the closed-loop stability and performance guaranteed. to achieve this, after finding the solutionsof two lyapunov inequalities and balancing the full order controller system, we find the reudced order controlers using the balanced truncation (BT) and the balanced singular perturbation approximation (BSPA). When the solutions of the two lyapunov inequalities exist, it is shown that the resulting controllers guarantee the closed-loop stability, and .inf.-norm error bounds are derived for the closed-loop performance region for the BT and in low frequency region for the BSPA. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the validity of the proposed method.
