Output corridor control via design of impulsive Goodwin's oscillator [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 In the Impulsive Goodwin's oscillator (IGO), a continuous positive linear time-invariant (LTI) plant is controlled by an amplitude- and frequency-modulated feedback into an oscillating solution. Self-sustained oscillations in the IGO model have been extensively used to portray periodic rhythms in endocrine systems, whereas the potential of the concept ...
