Robust control of uncertain distributed delay systems with application to the stabilization of combustion in rocket motor chambers

Unknown input functional observability of descriptor systems with neutral and distributed delay effects

“…Such systems, as many others, may contain time-delay terms in the state, input, and/or system output (see, e.g. Mounier et al (1997), Bellen et al (1999), Zheng and Frank (2002)). Some results on the observability problem of dynamical systems with timedelays can be found in Lee and Olbrot (1981); Olbrot (1981); Malek-Zavarei (1982); Przyiuski and Sosnowski (1984); Fliess and Mounier (1998); Sename (2001); Marquez-Martinez et al (2002); Sename (2005); Anguelova and Wennberg (2010); Zheng et al (2011); Bejarano and Zheng (2014).…”

“…We refer the reader to Zheng and Frank (2002) for further explanation of the system. Following the procedure given in Section 5 to rewrite the equations into the form (15) and then using Algorithm 1, we obtain that…”

Improved robust stability conditions for uncertain neutral systems with discrete and distributed delays

“…However, many practical applications can be modelled by systems with distributed delay [1][2][18][19][20]. During the past years, stability analysis and controller synthesis have also been widely investigated in [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31] for the systems with distributed delay by using recent developed LMI-based techniques.…”

LMI based control design for linear systems with distributed time delays

“…in the modeling of combustion chambers rocket motor with pressure feeding [4], [20]. Because of the significance of systems with distributed time-delay, as the controllers are usually digitally implemented, a growing attention has been devoted to studying distributed delay systems in recent years.…”
