The velocity of each agent is assumed to be unmeasurable. A second-order sliding mode observer is designed to estimate the velocity. Then a distributed discontinuous control law based on first-order SMC is presented to solve the consensus problem. Moreover, to overcome the chatting problem, two controllers based on the boundary layer method and the super-twisting algorithm respectively are presented. It is shown that the MASs will achieve consensus under some given conditions. Some examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control laws.展开更多

Based on Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and Lyapunov-Razumikhin functions respectively, consensus criterions in the form of linear matrix inequality （LMI） are obtained for the system with time-varying communication delays under static interconnection topology con- verging to the leader＇s states. Moreover, the delay-dependent consensus criterion in the form of LMI is also obtained for the system with time-invariant communication delay and switching topologies by constructing Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional.

By employing a frequency domain method, it is proven that the information states and their time derivatives of all the agents in the network achieve consensus asymptotically, respectively, for appropriate communication timedelay if the topology of weighted network is connected. Particularly, a tight upper bound on the communication time-delay that can be tolerated in the dynamic network is found. The consensus protocols are distributed in the sense that each agent only needs information from its neighboring agents, which reduces the complexity of connections between neighboring agents significantly. Numerical simulation results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness and the sharpness of the theoretical results for second-order consensus in networks in the presence of communication time-delays.展开更多

First, the path continuity assumption does not seem reason- able in view of the possibility of sudden price variations （jumps） resulting of market crashes. A solution is to use stochastic processes with jumps, that will account for sudden variations of the asset prices. On the other hand, such jump models are generally based on the Poisson random measure. Many popular economic and financial models described by stochastic differential equations with Poisson jumps. This paper deals with the approximate controllability of a class of second-order neutral stochastic differential equations with infinite delay and Poisson jumps. By using the cosine family of operators, stochastic analysis techniques, a new set of sufficient conditions are derived for the approximate controllability of the above control system. An example is provided to illustrate the obtained theory.展开更多

By introducing the H2 norm of the transfer function from disturbance to estimation error, sufficient and necessary conditions for disturbance decoupling in matrix second-order linear systems are established and are arranged into constraints on the design parameters via Luenberger function observers in terms of the closed-loop eigenvalues and the group of design parameters provided by the eigenstructure assignment approach. Therefore, the disturbance decoupling problem is converted into an eigenstructure assignment problem with extra parameter constraints. A simple example is investigated to show the effect and simplicity of the approach.展开更多

Moreover, the intermediate principal stress does affect the unsaturated soil strength; meanwhile, the relationship between the unsaturated soil strength and matric suction is nonlinear. This work is to present closed-form equations of critical embedment depth for a rigid retaining wall against overturning by means of moment equilibrium. Matric suction is considered to be distributed uniformly and linearly with depth. The unified shear strength formulation for unsaturated soils under the plane strain condition is adopted to characterize the intermediate principal stress effect, and strength nonlinearity is described by a hyperbolic model of suction angle. The result obtained is orderly series solutions rather than one specific answer; thus, it has wide theoretical significance and good applicability. The validity of this present work is demonstrated by comparing it with a lower bound solution. The traditional overturning designs for rigid retaining walls, in which the saturated soil mechanics neglecting matric suction or the unsaturated soil mechanics based on the Mohr-Coulomb criterion are employed, are special cases of the proposed result. Parametric studies about the intermediate principal stress, matric suction and its distributions along with two strength nonlinearity methods on a new defined critical buried coefficient are discussed.展开更多

Distinctly different from the case of numerical modeling of linear elastic wave, there may be several difficulties in the numerical treatment to the nonlinear partial differential equation, such as the steep gradients, shocks and unphysical oscillations. All of them are the great obstacles to the stability and conver-gence of numerical calculation. Fortunately, the comparative study on the modeling of nonlinear wave by the two FD schemes presented in the paper can provide us with an easy method to keep the stability and convergence in the calculation field when the product of the absolute value of nonlinear coefficient and the value of u/x are small enough, namely, the value of bu/x is much smaller than 1. Several results are founded in the numerical study of nonlinear P-wave propagation, such as the waveform aberration, the generation and growth of harmonic wave and the energy redistribution among different frequency components. All of them will be more violent when the initial amplitude A0 is larger or the nonlinearity of medium is stronger. Correspondingly, we have found that the nonlinear P-wave propagation velocity will change with different initial frequency f of source wave or the wave velocity c (equal to the P-wave velocity in the same medium without considering nonlinearity).展开更多

Distinctly different from the case of numerical modeling of linear elastic wave, there may be several difficulties in the numerical treatment to the nonlinear partial differential equation, such as the steep gradients, shocks and unphysical oscillations. All of them are the great obstacles to the stability and conver-gence of numerical calculation. Fortunately, the comparative study on the modeling of nonlinear wave by the two FD schemes presented in the paper can provide us with an easy method to keep the stability and convergence in the calculation field when the product of the absolute value of nonlinear coefficient and the value of u/x are small enough, namely, the value of bu/x is much smaller than 1. Several results are founded in the numerical study of nonlinear P-wave propagation, such as the waveform aberration, the generation and growth of harmonic wave and the energy redistribution among different frequency components. All of them will be more violent when the initial amplitude A0 is larger or the nonlinearity of medium is stronger. Correspondingly, we have found that the nonlinear P-wave propagation velocity will change with different initial frequency f of source wave or the wave velocity c (equal to the P-wave velocity in the same medium without considering nonlinearity).
