Abstract
Finite-time stability (FTS) has garnered considerable attention within the realm of control theory as a subject of active research. The objective of this paper is to explore the FTS of switched systems by employing a novel approach that relies on the concept of average dwell time (ADT). The ADT serves as a metric for quantifying the average duration a system remains in a specific mode prior to transitioning to a different mode. In this context, a condition that establishes the sufficiency of achieving FTS for a switched system has been derived in terms of the ADT and the corresponding Lyapunov function. Numerical simulations have been conducted to assess the efficacy of the proposed approach. Achieving a stable state within a specific time frame is crucial in many practical applications to meet desired performance requirements. The outcomes of this study have the potential to advance the development of more effective and reliable control systems across various engineering domains, including robotics, power systems, and transportation systems, which are often modeled as switched systems.
期刊介绍:
The European Control Association (EUCA) has among its objectives to promote the development of the discipline. Apart from the European Control Conferences, the European Journal of Control is the Association''s main channel for the dissemination of important contributions in the field.
The aim of the Journal is to publish high quality papers on the theory and practice of control and systems engineering.
The scope of the Journal will be wide and cover all aspects of the discipline including methodologies, techniques and applications.
Research in control and systems engineering is necessary to develop new concepts and tools which enhance our understanding and improve our ability to design and implement high performance control systems. Submitted papers should stress the practical motivations and relevance of their results.
The design and implementation of a successful control system requires the use of a range of techniques:
Modelling
Robustness Analysis
Identification
Optimization
Control Law Design
Numerical analysis
Fault Detection, and so on.
