By this method, the forms of time delays and the Lyapunov function in this paper are flexible, and in stability analysis, the requirement for negative definiteness of Lyapunov functions will be weakened. In addition, a more generalized adaptive synchronization controller has been proposed for QVINNs, which no longer requires multiple calculations of the control gain. Since most of the previous adaptive control methods did not impose requirements on the convergence speed of the QVINNs, a class of improved adaptive controllers is designed to address the slow synchronization speed of QVINNs. Finally, numerical simulations are conducted to validate the synchronization conditions.
This paper studies the global asymptotic synchronization (GAS) and global exponential synchronization (GES) problems of a class of quaternion-valued bidirectional associative memory neural networks (QVBAMNNs) with time-varying delays. Based on the matrix measure approach and Halanay inequality, sufficient conditions for GAS of unbounded time-varying delay system and GES of bounded time-varying delay system were established. Different from existing methods, this approach does not require the construction of Lyapunov functions and obtains the criteria for system synchronization expressed in terms of norms and measures. Finally, the validity of the proposed theoretical results and the feasibility of the control strategy are verified through numerical simulations.
This paper presents a novel fixed-time adaptive control scheme with prescribed performance for nonlinear networked control systems (NCSs) under deception attacks. The Nussbaum function is first employed to tackle the challenge of unknown attack weights and their signs. A hybrid approach integrating a fixed-time performance function with a nonlinear shifting function is used to mitigate the influence of initial conditions on tracking errors. Furthermore, a sufficient condition is derived to guarantee the practical fixed-time stability of NCSs, even in the face of deception attacks. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed methodology is demonstrated through a mass-spring-damper system simulation.
The autonomous Duffing–Holmes oscillator ẋ = y, ẏ = x – x3 + by – kz, ż = w(y – z), depending on the three parameters b, k, and w, has been studied previously by several authors who showed that for certain parameter values, it exhibits chaotic motion, or that numerically it has two periodic orbits coming from a Hopf bifurcation, or that it can have three equilibria for some given values of the parameters. Here we provide new results on the integrability and the global dynamics of the autonomous Duffing–Holmes oscillator using its first integrals and Darboux invariants when these exist for some given values of its parameters.
In this paper, we introduce two new algorithms for solving variational inequalities in Banach spaces. Our aim is finding a common element of the solution set of variational inequalities (for two inverse-strongly monotone operators) and an equilibrium problem and the set of fixed points of two relatively nonexpansive mappings and a family of resolvent operators. Then the strong convergence of the sequences generated by these algorithms to this element will be proved under suitable conditions. Finally, we provide a numerical example to illustrate our main results.
