A qualitative method is explored for analyzing the stability of systems. The approach is a generalization of the celebrated Lyapunov method. Whereas classically, the Lyapunov method is based on the simple comparison theorem, deriving suitable candidate Lyapunov functions remains mostly an art. As a result, in the realm of delay equations, such Lyapunov methods can be quite conservative. The generalization is here in using the comparison theorem directly with a different scalar equation with known...
In this paper, we solve an optimal control problem using the
calculus of variation. The system under consideration is a
switched autonomous delay system that undergoes jumps at the
switching times. The control variables are the instants when the
switches occur, and a set of scalars which determine the jump
amplitudes. Optimality conditions involving analytic expressions
for the partial derivatives of a given cost function with respect
to the control variables are derived using the calculus of
variation....
