In recent decades, increasingly intensive research attention has been given to dynamical
systems containing delays and those affected by the after-effect phenomenon. Such …

Direct spring operated pressure relief valves are regular elements of high-pressure
hydraulic systems; however, valve vibrations may still occur endangering the valve and the …

It is well known that standard predictive techniques are not very robust to parameter
uncertainties and to external disturbances. Furthermore, they require the exact knowledge of …

We address the stabilisation problem of linear time-invariant systems with pointwise and
distributed delays. We first introduce the concept of the smoothed spectral abscissa, a robust …

This study demonstrates the use of a simple algebraic controller design for a cooling-heating
plant with a through-flow air-water heat exchanger that evinces long internal delays with …

This work investigates the performance of a community microgrid (C-μ Grid) in an islanded
mode of operation. A control structure has been developed, which focuses on transient …

Existing methods for computing stability boundary of systems with multiple uncertain time
delays are either conservative or suffer from low computational efficiency. Addressing this …

We develop a numerical test of hyperbolicity of chaotic dynamics in time-delay systems. The
test is based on the angle criterion and includes computation of angle distributions between …

We develop an extension of the fast method of angles for hyperbolicity verification in chaotic
systems with an arbitrary number of time-delay feedback loops. The adopted method is …

An appropriate setting of eventual controller parameters for a derived controller structure
represents an integral part of many control design approaches for dynamical systems. This …
