The Rantzer multipliers are known to preserve the positivity of certain aberrations of memoryless monotone positive nonlinearities. We show that if the nonlinearity input is constrained to be positive valued for all time instants, these multipliers are positivity preserving for a larger class of nonlinearities. As a result, it follows that the Rantzer multipliers are useful in reducing the conservatism...
We consider a class of linear flexible mechanical systems arising from the dynamics of animal locomotion. A distinctive property of such systems is that the stiffness matrix is asymmetric. Extending the standard notion to this class, we define the natural oscillation as a free response under the damping compensation to achieve marginal stability. As a benchmark, a link chain system in a fluid environment...
Exponential stability analysis and L2-gain analysis are developed for uncertain distributed parameter systems. Scalar heat processes and distributed mechanical oscillators, governed by semilinear partial differential equations of parabolic and, respectively, hyperbolic types, are chosen for treatment. Sufficient exponential stability conditions with a given decay rate are derived in the form of linear...
