a b s t r a c tIn this paper, we consider the input-to-state stability (ISS) of impulsive control systems with and without time delays. We prove that, if the time-delay system possesses an exponential Lyapunov-Razumikhin function or an exponential Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, then the system is uniformly ISS provided that the average dwell-time condition is satisfied. Then, we consider large-scale networks of impulsive systems with and without time delays and prove that the whole network is uniformly ISS under the small-gain and the average dwell-time condition. Moreover, these theorems provide us with tools to construct a Lyapunov function (for time-delay systems, a Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional or a Lyapunov-Razumikhin function) and the corresponding gains of the whole system, using the Lyapunov functions of the subsystems and the internal gains, which are linear and satisfy the small-gain condition. We illustrate the application of the main results on examples.
We consider the interconnections of arbitrary topology of a finite number of ISS hybrid systems and study whether the ISS property is maintained for the overall system. We show that if the small gain condition is satisfied, then the whole network is ISS and show how a non-smooth ISS-Lyapunov function can be explicitly constructed in this case.
We consider interconnected nonlinear systems with external inputs, where each of the subsystems is assumed to be input-to-state stable (ISS). Sufficient conditions of small gain type are provided guaranteeing that the interconnection is ISS with respect to the external input. To this end we extend recently obtained small gain theorems to a more general type of interconnections. The small gain theorem provided here is applicable to situations where the ISS conditions are formulated differently for each subsystem and are either given in the maximization or the summation sense. Furthermore it is shown that the conditions are compatible in the sense that it is always possible to transform sum formulations to maximum formulations without destroying a given small gain condition. An example shows the advantages of our results in comparison with the known ones.
Interconnection of several hybrid input-to-state stable (ISS) systems is considered in this paper. We ask under what condition is such an interconnection stable and how an ISS-Lyapunov function can be constructed for the whole interconnection. Small-gain condition to assure stability is given. A construction of an ISS-Lyapunov function for the whole system is provided under the small-gain condition.
Logistics network represents a complex system where different elements that are logistic locations interact with each other. This interaction contains delays caused by time needed for delivery of the material. In this paper, we study local input-to-state stability of such logistics networks. Their behaviour is described by a functional differential equation with a constant time-delay. An appropriate Lyapunov-Razumikhin function and the small gain condition are utilized to establish some conditions for stability analysis of the network under consideration. Our stability conditions for the logistics network are based on the information about the interconnection properties between logistic locations and their production rates. Finally, numerical results are provided to demonstrate an application of the proposed approach.
