First, the payment matrix is given and two evolutionary dynamics models are established by adding stochastic and impulse. For the stochastic model without impulses, the existence and uniqueness of solution, and the existence of positive periodic solutions are proved, and a sufficient condition for strategy extinction is given. For the stochastic model with impulses, the existence of positive periodic solutions is proved. Numerical results show that noise and impulses directly affect the model, but the periodicity of the model does not change.展开更多

Selective maintenance is performed on systems with limited break time to improve the success of the next mission. In general, the duration of the mission is stochastic. However, existing studies rarely take into account system availability and the repairpersons with different skill levels. To solve this problem, a new multi-mission selective maintenance and repairpersons assignment model with stochastic duration of the mission are developed. To maximize the minimum phase-mission reliability while meeting the minimum system availability, the model is transformed into an optimization problem subject to limited maintenance resources. The optimization is then realized using an analytical method based on a self-programming function and a Monte Carlo simulation method, respectively. Finally, the validity of the model and solution method approaches are verified by numerical arithmetic examples. Comparative and sensitivity analyses are made to provide proven recommendations for decision-makers.展开更多

By using Jensen's integral inequality and combining with the free weighting matrix approach, new delay-dependent stability conditions and delayed state feedback stabilization criteria are obtained in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Meanwhile, the proposed delayed state feedback stabilization criteria are more convenient in application than the existing ones since fewer tuning parameters are involved. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.展开更多

Although the exponential stability of impulsive stochastic delay systems has been discussed by several authors, few works have been done on delay-dependent exponential stability of impulsive stochastic delay systems. Firstly, the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional method combing the free-weighting matrix approach is applied to investigate this problem. Some delay-dependent mean square exponential stability criteria are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities. In particular, the estimate of the exponential convergence rate is also provided, which depends on system parameters and impulsive effects. The obtained results show that the system will stable if the impulses' frequency and amplitude are suitably related to the increase or decrease of the continuous flows, and impulses may be used as controllers to stabilize the underlying stochastic system. Numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of the results.展开更多

By decomposing the delay interval into multiple equidistant subintervals, a new delay-dependent and decay-rate-dependent criterion is presented based on constructing a novel Lyapunov functional and employing stochastic analysis technique. Besides, the decay rate has no conventional constraint and can be selected according to different practical conditions. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to show that the obtained result has less conservatism than some existing ones in the literature.展开更多
