Abstract
Lyapunov functions are functions with negative derivative along solutions of a given ordinary differential equation. Moreover, sublevel sets of a Lyapunov function are subsets of the domain of attraction of the equilibrium. One of the numerical construction methods for Lyapunov functions uses meshless collocation with radial basis functions.Recently, this method was combined with a grid refinement algorithm (GRA) to reduce the number of collocation points needed to construct Lyapunov functions. However, depending on the choice of the initial set of collocation point, the algorithm can terminate, failing to compute a Lyapunov function. In this paper, we propose a modified grid refinement algorithm (MGRA), which overcomes these shortcomings by adding appropriate collocation points using a clustering algorithm. The modified algorithm is applied to two- and three-dimensional examples.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
