A frequency domain stability criterion (sufficient condition) for a class of distributed parameter, sampled-data systems containing a memoryless, nonlinear feedback element is presented. This criterion for absolute stability of the class of distributed systems considered here parallels the criterion for lumped systems obtained by Jury and Lee, and it requires that the following relationship be satisfied on the unit circle (|z| = 1). Re{W(pj,z)[1+q(z−1)]}+1K−K′|q|2|(z−1)W(pj,z)|2≥0forallj=0,1,2,…. This sufficient condition is limited to those systems whose dynamics can be described by a transfer function W(pi, z) which is the ratio of the multiple transform of the output to the multiple transform of the input. An example is given to illustrate the applications of the stability criterion.

Sampled-data, nonlinear, distributed systems, which exhibit a structure similar to that of the standard closed loop with lumped parameter, are investigated from the viewpoint of their input-output stability. These systems are governed by operational equations involving discrete Laplace-Green kernels. Their feedback gains are bounded by upper and lower values which depend explicitly on the time and the distributed parameter. The main result is: an input-output stability theorem is given which applies both in L∞ (O, ∞) and L2 (O, ∞). This criterion, which may be considered as being an extension of the ≪circle criterion≫, involves the mean square value on the bounds of the feedback gain. Stability conditions for continuous systems are derived from this result. In the special case of systems with distributed periodical time-varying feedback gains, a stability criterion is given which applies in Marcinkiewicz space M2 (O, ∞). This result which involves the mean square value of the feedback gain is generally less restrictive than the L2 (O, ∞) stability criterion mentioned above.

Leta(t),b(t)be continuousT-periodic functions with∫0Tb(t)dt=0. We establish one stability criterion for the linear damped oscillatorx′′+b(t)x′+a(t)x=0. Moreover, based on the computation of the corresponding Birkhoff normal forms, we present a sufficient condition for the stability of the equilibrium of the nonlinear damped oscillatorx′′+b(t)x′+a(t)x+c(t)x2n-1+e(t,x)=0, wheren≥2,c(t)is a continuousT-periodic function,e(t,x)is continuousT-periodic intand dominated by the powerx2nin a neighborhood ofx=0.

Extensive research has been conducted on vibration energy harvesting utilizing a distributed piezoelectric beam structure. A fundamental issue in the design of these harvesters is the understanding of the response of the beam to arbitrary external excitations (boundary excitations in most models). The modal analysis method has been the primary tool for evaluating the system response. However, a change in the model boundary conditions requires a reevaluation of the eigenfunctions in the series and information of higher-order dynamics may be lost in the truncation. In this paper, a frequency domain modeling approach based in the system transfer functions is proposed. The transfer function of a distributed parameter system contains all of the information required to predict the system spectrum, the system response under any initial and external disturbances, and the stability of the system response. The methodology proposed in this paper is valid for both self-adjoint and non-self-adjoint systems, and is useful for numerical computer coding and energy harvester design investigations. Examples will be discussed to demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach for designs of vibration energy harvesters.

For distributed parameter systems, open-loop stability in the sense of bounded outputs for bounded inputs, and closed-loop asymptotic stability are considered. Frequency domain stability criteria for open and closed-loop distributed parameter systems are given. The closed-loop stability criterion is similar to V. M. Popov’s stability criterion for lumped systems. The criteria are limited to those linear, time-invariant systems whose dynamics can be described by a transfer function which is the ratio of the multiple transform of the output to the multiple transform of the input. The input may or may not be distributed. An example is given to illustrate the applications of the stability criteria.
