Discontinuous systems: Lyapunov analysis and robust synthesis under uncertainty conditions

"Discontinuous Systems" develops nonsmooth stability analysis and discontinuous control synthesis based on novel modeling of discontinuous dynamic systems,operating under uncertain conditions. While being primarily a research monograph devoted to the theory of discontinuous dynamic systems, no background in discontinuous systems is required; such systems are introduced in the book at the appropriate conceptual level. Being developed for discontinuous systems, the theory is successfully applied to their subclasses – variable-structure and impulsive systems – as well as to finite- and infinite-dimensional systems such as distributed-parameter and time-delay systems. The presentation concentrates on algorithms rather than on technical implementation although theoretical results are illustrated by electromechanical applications. These specific applications complete the book and, together with the introductory theoretical constituents bring some elements of the tutorial to the text. Shows the reader how to stabilize a system and reduce disturbance effects at the same time Gives the reader a helpful tool for optimising performance in electromechanical systems by overcoming hard-to-model phenomena like friction and back lash INDICE: Introduction.- Part I: Mathematical Tools.- Mathematical Models.- Stability Analysis.- Finite-time Stability of Uncertain Homogeneous and Quasihomogeneous Systems.- Part II: Synthesis.- Quasihomogeneous Design.- Unit Feedback Design.- Disturbance Attentuation via Nonsmooth H-infinity-design.- Part III: Unit Feedback Control of Infinite-dimensional Systems.- Global Asymptotic Stabilization of Uncertain Linear Systems.- Asymptotic Stabilization of Minimum-phase Semilinear Systems.- Global Asymptotic Stabilization of Uncertain Time-delay Systems.- Part IV: Electromechanical Applications.- Local Nonsmooth H-infinity-synthesis under Friction/Backlash Phenomena.- Quasihomogeneous Stabilization of Fully Actuated Systems with Dry Friction.- Hybrid Control of Underactuated Manipulators with Frictional Joints.
