On differential passivity of physical systems [PDF]

open access: yes52nd IEEE Conference on Decision and Control, 2013
Differential passivity is a property that allows to check with a pointwise criterion that a system is incrementally passive, a property that is relevant to study interconnected systems in the context of regulation, synchronization, and estimation. The paper investigates how restrictive is the property, focusing on a class of open gradient systems ...

On Passivity of Fractional Order Systems [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Control and Optimization, 2019
We generalize notions of passivity and dissipativity to fractional order systems. Similar to integer order systems, we show that the proposed definitions generate analogous stability and compositionality properties for fractional order systems as well.

Application of Chernoff bound to passive system reliability evaluation for probabilistic safety assessment of nuclear power plants

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2022
There is an increasing interest in passive safety systems to minimize the need for operator intervention or external power sources in nuclear power plants. Because a passive system has a weak driving force, there is greater uncertainty in the performance
