Fractional hold circuits versus positive realness of discrete transfer functions
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2005)
The appropriate use of fractional-order holds(beta-FROH) of correcting gains beta is an element of[- 1,1] as an alternative to the classical zero- and first-order holds(ZOHs, FOHs) is discussed related to the positive ...
On a Generalized Time-Varying SEIR Epidemic Model with Mixed Point and Distributed Time-Varying Delays and Combined Regular and Impulsive Vaccination Controls
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2010)
This paper discusses a generalized time-varying SEIR propagation disease model subject to delays which potentially involves mixed regular and impulsive vaccination rules. The model takes also into account the natural ...
About the properties of a modified generalized Beverton-Holt equation in ecology models
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2008)
This paper is devoted to the study of a generalized modified version of the well-known Beverton-Holt equation in ecology. The proposed model describes the population evolution of some species in a certain habitat driven ...
Robustly stable multiestimation scheme for adaptive control and identification with model reduction issues
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2005)
A discrete pole-placement-based and multiestimation-based adaptive control scheme involving a relative adaptation dead zone is presented for a plant with known poles and unknown zeros., The basic usefulness of the proposed ...
Adaptive control of time-invariant systems with discrete delays subject to multiestimation
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2006)
This paper deals with a robustly stable adaptive pole-placement-based controller for time-delay linear systems with unknown point delays within known intervals of sufficiently small lengths under unmodeled dynamics and ...
On the Necessary and Sufficient Condition for a Set of Matrices to Commute and Some Further Linked Results
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2009)
This paper investigates the necessary and sufficient condition for a set of (real or complex) matrices to commute. It is proved that the commutator [A,B]=0 for two matrices A and B if and only if a vector v(B) defined ...
Stabilization criteria for continuous linear time-invariant systems with constant lags
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2006)
Some criteria for asymptotic stability of linear and time-invariant systems with constant point delays are derived. Such criteria are concerned with the properties of robust stability related to two relevant auxiliary ...
Observer-Based Vaccination Strategy for a True Mass Action SEIR Epidemic Model with Potential Estimation of All the Populations
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2011)
This paper presents a simple continuous-time linear vaccination-based control strategy for a SEIR (susceptible plus infected plus infectious plus removed populations) propagation disease model. The model takes into account ...
On the Extensions of Krasnoselskii-Type Theorems to p-Cyclic Self-Mappings in Banach Spaces
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2011)
A set of np(>= 2)-cyclic and either continuous or contractive self-mappings, with at least one of them being contractive, which are defined on a set of subsets of a Banach space, are considered to build a composed self-mapping ...
On a General Contractive Condition for Cyclic Self-Mappings
