“…Here, solutions to piecewise continuous nonlinear systems should be described based on the arguments on Filippov's differential equations (inclusions)
33 because they cannot be defined on the classical Caratheodory‐based arguments. In a theoretical aspect for dealing with piecewise continuous nonlinear systems, various studies on stability and
‐induced norms have been introduced recently in References
27‐31, respectively, but no argument on the
controller synthesis is discussed in those studies. With respect to a practical effectiveness, furthermore, there have been also various studies on employing piecewise continuous nonlinear systems to describe real systems such as frictional effects,
24 neural networks with discontinuous activation functions,
25 sliding mode control systems
26 and so on.…”
