In this paper, a new method for designing controller for linear switching systems with varying delay is presented concerning the Hurwitz-Convex combination. For stability analysis the Lyapunov-Krasovskii function is used. The stability analysis results are given based on the linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), and it is possible to obtain upper delay bound that guarantees the stability of system by solving the linear matrix inequalities. Compared with the other methods, the proposed controller can be used to get a less conservative criterion and ensures the stability of linear switching systems with time-varying delay in which delay has way larger upper bound in comparison with the delay bounds that are considered in other methods. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of proposed method.

This paper investigates a class of linear continuous-time switching systems and proposes a new approach to generate chaos by designing a hybrid switching rule. First, a computational formula for Lyapunov exponents is derived by extending the definition of Lyapunov exponent for continuous-time autonomous systems to that of a class of linear continuous-time switching systems. Then, a novel switching rule is proposed to gain global boundedness property as well as the required placement of Lyapunov exponents for chaos. A numerical example is given to illustrate the chaotic dynamic behavior of the generated system. The Lyapunov dimension of the system in the example is calculated and the corresponding bifurcation diagram and Lyapunov spectra are sketched, which, together with other phase portraits, clearly verify the validity of the main result.
