An LMI Approach to Stability Analysis of Coupled Parabolic Systems (1802.00609v5)
Published 2 Feb 2018 in math.OC and cs.SY
Abstract: We analyze the exponential stability of distributed parameter systems. The system we consider is described by a coupled parabolic partial differential equation with spatially varying coefficients. We approximate the coefficients by splitting space domains but take into account approximation errors during stability analysis. Using a quadratic Lyapunov function, we obtain sufficient conditions for exponential stability in terms of linear matrix inequalities.
