Finite-dimensional filters with nonlinear drift, VI: Linear structure of Ω
Ever since the concept of estimation algebra was first introduced by Brockett and Mitter independently, it has been playing a crucial role in the investigation of finite-dimensional nonlinear filters. Research...

Uncertainty Modelling and Robust Fault Diagnosis for Dynamic Systems
In earlier chapters of this book, we have seen that model-based FDI methods formally require a high accuracy mathematic model of the monitored system. The better the model is as a representation of the dynamic...

Robust Stability Analysis
In the previous chapters the stability property of a given time-delay system was studied. In engineering applications, it is now very common that one does not know exactly the system under investigation; that ...

Introduction to Time-Delay Systems
We begin this chapter by presenting a number of practical examples of time-delay systems. This should give the reader a glimpse into how widely time delays may occur in practice. To make the presentation more ...

Systems with Incommensurate Delays
Unlike for those systems with commensurate delays, stability analysis for systems with incommensurate delays proves far more difficult. In particular, most of the results known to date are sufficient condition...

Systems with Single Delay
In this chapter we will explore the time domain approaches of stability analysis. An advantage of time domain methods is the ease of handling nonlinearity and time-varying uncertainties. However, in order to i...
