“…In this regard, mention can be made of [11], [12], [13], where frequency-like methods are applied to the characteristic (pseudo) polynomial of a fractional-order system, of [14], where reference is made to systems in Lure's form, of [15], where non-commensurate delay systems are considered, and of [16], [17] that present adaptations of the classical algebraic criteria of Routh and Jury. Quite understandably, these contributions naturally pertain to the broader, and by now well-established, line of research on root clustering [18], [19], [20], robust and D-stability [21], [22], [23]. Most of the aforementioned results require a fairly strong mathematical background and lead to tests that are not easily implemented.…”
