Nonholonomic systems provide an important class of mechanical control systems. One
reason for this importance is that nonintegrability is essential to both the mechanics and the …

Problems in bordering fields associated with partial stability and stabilization of nonlinear
dynamic systems, including partial stability and stabilization by part of coordinates of the …

Basic aspects of the subject and methodology for a new and rapidly develo** area of
research that has emerged at the intersection of physics and control theory (cybernetics) and …

In this book a number of ideas and results related to the? eld of cybern-ical physics–the
scienti? c area aimed at the study of physical systems by cybernetical means–are presented …

We consider networks of delay-coupled Stuart-Landau oscillators. In these systems, the
coupling phase has been found to be a crucial control parameter. By proper choice of this …

The Lyapunov approach is a powerful tool for the stability analysis and feedback design of
dynamic systems. Converse Lyapunov function theory guarantees the existence of …

The survey examines the current state of the speed gradient method, developed in the 1970–
80s for synthesizing control and adaptation algorithms in nonlinear systems, as well as …

A neural control synthesis method is considered for a class of nonaffine uncertain single-
input-single-output (SISO) systems. The method eliminates a fixed-point assumption and …

A new algorithm ensuring global attractivity of the upright (unstable) equilibrium of a
pendulum, based on the variable structure system-version of the energy-speed-gradient …

We study synchronization in delay-coupled neural networks of heterogeneous nodes. It is
well known that heterogeneities in the nodes hinder synchronization when becoming too …
