Liapunov's Direct Method

Utilizing Liapunov’s direct method a procedure is presented which generates sufficient conditions for the stability of the null solution of the nonautonomous differential equation x¨ + b(t)x˙ + a(t)x = 0. This procedure systematically leads to the construction of a Liapunov function for a given differential equation and thus eliminates the normally ad hoc nature of the direct method. Four examples illustrating the procedure are discussed.

Second Order Systems

In modeling of dynamical systems, differential equations, either ordinary or partial, are a common outcome of the modeling process. The basic problem becomes the existence of solution of these deferential equations. In the early days of the solution of deferential equations at the beginning of the eighteenth century the methods for determining the existence of nontrivial solution were so limited and developed very much on an ad hoc basis. Most of the efforts on dynamical system are related to the second order systems, derived by applying Newton equation of motion to dynamical systems. But, behavior of some dynamical systems is governed by equations falling down in the general nonlinear third order differential equation x″′+f(t,x,x′,x″)=0, sometimes as a result of combination of a first and a second order system. It is shown in this paper that these equations could have nontrivial solutions, if x, x′, x″, and f(t,x,x′,x″) are bounded. Furthermore, it is shown that the third order differential equation has a τ-periodic solution if f(t,x,x′,x″) is an even function with respect to x′. For this purpose, the concept of Green’s function and the Schauder’s fixed-point theorem has been used.

The Stability

This paper focuses on the stability analysis and invariant set stability theorems for nonlinear impulsive systems. A set of Lyapunov-based sufficient conditions are established for these convergent properties. These results do not require the Lyapunov function to be positive definite. Inequalities relating the righthandside of the differential equation and the Lyapunov function derivative are involved for these results. These inequalities make it possible to deduce properties of the functions and thus leads to sufficient conditions for convergence and stability.

Shell Axis

The stability of a long, thin, elastic circular cylindrical shell subjected to axial compression and an axisymmetric load moving with constant velocity along the shell axis is studied. With the aid of the direct method of Liapunov, and employing a nonlinear Donnell-type shell theory, sufficient conditions for local stability of the axisymmetric response are established in a functional space whose metric is defined in an average sense. Numerical results, which are presented for the case of a moving decayed step load, reveal that the sufficient conditions for stability developed here and the sufficient conditions for instability obtained in a previous paper lead to the actual stability transition boundary.

Liapunov's Direct Method

The purpose of this paper is to obtain stability conditions for a class of nonlinear distributed-parameter systems by using a generalization of Liapunov’s direct method. Sufficient conditions for local stability and instability of the equilibrium state are derived. An application is given in which conditions are obtained for stability of a chemical-reactor process.

Necessary and sufficient conditions for Lyapunov stability, semistability and asymptotic stability of matrix second-order systems are given in terms of the coefficient matrices. Necessary and sufficient conditions for Lyapunov stability and instability in the absence of viscous damping are also given. These are used to derive several known stability and instability criteria as well as a few new ones. In addition, examples are given to illustrate the stability conditions.

The Stability

AbstractSystems possessing symmetries often admit heteroclinic cycles that persist under perturbations that respect the symmetry. The asymptotic stability of such cycles has previously been studied on an ad hoc basis by many authors. Sufficient conditions, but usually not necessary conditions, for the stability of these cycles have been obtained via a variety of different techniques.We begin a systematic investigation into the asymptotic stability of such cycles. A general sufficient condition for asymptotic stability is obtained, together with algebraic criteria for deciding when this condition is also necessary. These criteria are always satisfied in ℝ3 and often satisfied in higher dimensions. We end by applying our results to several higher-dimensional examples that occur in mode interactions with O(2) symmetry.

In this paper, we investigate the stability for reaction systems with stochastic switching. Two types of switched models are considered: (i) Markov switching and (ii) independent and identically distributed switching. By means of the ergodic property of Markov chain, Dynkin formula and Fubini theorem, together with the Lyapunov direct method, some sufficient conditions are obtained to ensure that the zero solution of reaction–diffusion systems with Markov switching is almost surely exponential stable or exponentially stable in the mean square. By using Theorem 7.3 in [R. Durrett, Probability: Theory and Examples, Duxbury Press, Belmont, CA, 2005], we also investigate the stability of reaction–diffusion systems with independent and identically distributed switching. Meanwhile, an example with simulations is provided to certify that the stochastic switching plays an essential role in the stability of systems.

Singular Time

This paper gives sufficient conditions for the stability of linear singular discrete delay systems of the form Ex(k+1) = Aox(k)+A1x((k-1). These new, delay-independent conditions are derived using approach based on Lyapunov’s direct method. A numerical example has been working out to show the applicability of results derived. To the best knowledge of the authors, such result have not yet been reported.
