Input–output finite-time stability of discrete-time systems under finite-time boundedness

International Journal of Systems Science, 2018
This paper deals with the input–output finite-time stability of discrete time-varying linear systems in the presence of finite-time boundedness.

Finite translations in time and energy

Physical Review Letters, 1993
Commuting time translations and electric translations are used for the specification of time dependent solutions of the Schr\"odinger equation for a Bloch electron in a periodic in time electric field. Explicit one-band expressions are found for the quasienergies and the corresponding time dependent solutions.

Input–output finite-time stabilization of linear systems with finite-time boundedness

ISA Transactions, 2014
The paper presents linear system Input-Output Finite-Time Stabilization (IO-FTS) method under Finite-Time Boundedness (FTB) constraint. A state feedback controller is designed, via Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs), to guarantee the system both IO-FTS and FTB.

Finite-Time Stability and Boundedness of Switched Systems with Finite-Time Unstable Subsystems

Circuits, Systems, and Signal Processing, 2018
In this paper, problems covering finite-time stability and boundedness of switched systems with finite-time unstable subsystems are researched through the method of multi-Lyapunov function. On basis of the mode-dependent average dwell time method, the systems are required to meet the standards of remaining finite-time stable and finite-time bounded ...

Finite-time stability and finite-time boundedness of fractional order linear systems

Neurocomputing, 2016
In this paper, the finite-time stability (FTS) and the finite-time boundedness (FTB) for the fractional order linear time invariant (LTI) systems with 0 < α < 1 are studied. First, some conditions to guarantee the FTS and the FTB for a class of fractional order LTI systems are derived by combining a new property for Caputo fractional derivatives, the ...

Queues with Finite Waiting Time

Operations Research, 1963
The paper considers a single-server queuing system in which a customer does not wait more than a fixed time k, so that if he does not get his service within this time, he departs. Some results are obtained by applying the theory of storage.

Finite-time control with pole placement

2003 European Control Conference (ECC), 2003
In this paper we deal with the problem of designing an output feedback controller which guarantees, at the same time, that the closed-loop poles are in specified regions of the complex plane and that the system under control is finite time bounded. This is accomplished by means of a dynamic compensator in the controller-observer form.

Finite-time stability and finite-time boundedness of fractional order switched systems

Transactions of the Institute of Measurement and Control, 2019
Finite-time stability and finite-time boundedness of fractional order switched systems with [Formula: see text] are investigated in this paper. First of all, by employing the average dwell time technique and Lyapunov functional method, some sufficient conditions for finite-time stability and finite-time boundedness of fractional order switched systems ...
