By a convenient parametrization of the A(x) matrix, the state dependent algebraic Riccati equation is solved analytically. Thus, the closed-loop system equations are obtained in analytical form. Global stability analysis is performed by the second method of Lyapunov. By the aforementioned parametrization, it is sufficient for the Lyapunov function derivative to be negative semi-definite to achieve global asymptotic stability. Accordingly, a relatively simple condition for global asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system is derived. Two illustrative examples are included.","PeriodicalId":441363,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1999 American Control Conference (Cat.

The objective of the system is to maintain the height of the car body to a fixed value, despite changes in loads and driving conditions. The objective of the paper is to propose a verification method for checking that certain design specifications, or system performances are achieved. We are able to compute exact bounds on the maximum suspension deflection for the given model of the system and road disturbance. The motivation for this work comes from the disappointing results of Stanner et al. (1997) where the problem was approached by using HYTECH. The numerical and computational complexity problems reported in the above article have their common roots in the need to fit and approximate the actual model with a linear hybrid model.","PeriodicalId":441363,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1999 American Control Conference (Cat.

By choosing state-dependent scaling functions in each step of the backstepping design, one can construct robust control laws for an extended class of strict feedback systems. The scaling approach to robust backstepping treats both static and dynamic uncertainty in a unified way. The method is amenable to automatic computation based on optimization, and one can thus introduce performance objectives such as instantaneous control effort minimization into the design.","PeriodicalId":441363,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1999 American Control Conference (Cat.
