Abstract
The design of variable-structure control (VSC) systems for a class of multivariable, nonlinear, time-varying systems is presented. Using the Utkin-Drazenovic method of equivalent control and generalized Lyapunov stability concepts, the VSC design is described in a unified manner. Complications that arise due to multiple inputs are examined, and several approaches useful in overcoming them are developed. Recent developments are investigated, as is the kinship of VSC and the deterministic approach to the control of uncertain systems. All points are illustrated by numerical examples. The recent literature on VSC applications is surveyed. >

Differential Equations with Discontinuous Righthand Sides

TL;DR: The kind and level of sophistication of mathematics applied in various sciences has changed drastically in recent years: measure theory is used (non-trivially) in regional and theoretical economics, algebraic geometry interacts with physics, and such new emerging subdisciplines as "experimental mathematics", "CFD", "completely integrable systems", "chaos, synergetics and large-scale order", which are almost impossible to fit into the existing classification schemes.

Continuous state feedback guaranteeing uniform ultimate boundedness for uncertain dynamic systems

TL;DR: In this article, a class of state feedback controls is proposed in order to guarantee uniform ultimate boundedness of every system response within an arbitrarily small neighborhood of the zero state, and these feedback controls are continuous functions of the state.
