Recently, conventional (linear) ℒ2-gain concepts have been generalized to the nonlinear ℒ2 framework to encompass a larger class of systems. A bounded real lemma has been developed corresponding to this generalized notion of nonlinear ℒ2-gain.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:08:51 AEDT ]]> Nonlinear L-2-gain verification for nonlinear systems https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23618 2-gain has been extensively studied and applied in the analysis and control of both linear and nonlinear dynamical systems over the last few decades. The connection between this finite gain property and dissipation is well-known, and is fundamental to providing a verification mechanism for the property via solution of a related Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman equation. Motivated by an interest in broadening the applicability of finite L2-gain in the analysis and control of nonlinear systems, this paper presents a generalized verification mechanism that permits nonlinear gain functions to be incorporated in the notion of finite L2-gain.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:13:28 AEDT ]]>
