Properties of convergence of a class of iterative processes generated by sequences of self-mappings with applications to switched dynamic systems
(Springer International Publishing, 2014-12-15)
This article investigates the convergence properties of iterative processes involving sequences of self-mappings of metric or Banach spaces. Such sequences are built from a set of primary self-mappings which are either ...
Convergence Properties and Fixed Points of Two General Iterative Schemes with Composed Maps in Banach Spaces with Applications to Guaranteed Global Stability
(Hindawi Publishing, 2014)
This paper investigates the boundedness and convergence properties of two general iterative processes which involve sequences of self-mappings on either complete metric or Banach spaces. The sequences of self-mappings ...
Robust Sliding Control of SEIR Epidemic Models
(Hindawi Publishing, 2014)
This paper is aimed at designing a robust vaccination strategy capable of eradicating an infectious disease from a population regardless of the potential uncertainty in the parameters defining the disease. For this purpose, ...
Approximate Solutions by Truncated Taylor Series Expansions of Nonlinear Differential Equations and Related Shadowing Property with Applications
(Hindawi Publishing, 2014)
This paper investigates the errors of the solutions as well as the shadowing property of a class of nonlinear differential equations which possess unique solutions on a certain interval for any admissible initial condition. ...
Stability and Limit Oscillations of a Control Event-Based Sampling Criterion
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2012)
This paper investigates the presence of limit oscillations in an adaptive sampling system. The basic sampling criterion operates in the sense that each next sampling occurs when the absolute difference of the signal amplitude ...
Asymptotic Hyperstability of a Class of Linear Systems under Impulsive Controls Subject to an Integral Popovian Constraint
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2013)
This paper is focused on the study of the important property of the asymptotic hyperstability of a class of continuous-time dynamic systems. The presence of a parallel connection of a strictly stable subsystem to an ...
An observer-based vaccination control law for an SEIR epidemic model based on feedback linearization techniques for nonlinear systems
(Springer, 2012-09)
This paper presents a vaccination strategy for fighting against the propagation of epidemic diseases. The disease propagation is described by an SEIR (susceptible plus infected plus infectious plus removed populations) ...
On the Stability and Equilibrium Points of Multistaged SI (n) R Epidemic Models
(Hindawi Publishing, 2015)
This paper relies on the concept of next generation matrix defined ad hoc for a new proposed extended SEIR model referred to as SI(n)R-model to study its stability. The model includes n successive stages of infectious ...
On a New Epidemic Model with Asymptomatic and Dead-Infective Subpopulations with Feedback Controls Useful for Ebola Disease
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2017-02-19)
This paper studies the nonnegativity and local and global stability properties of the solutions of a newly proposed SEIADR model which incorporates asymptomatic and dead-infective subpopulations into the standard SEIR model ...
On the Entropy of Events under Eventually Global Inflated or Deflated Probability Constraints. Application to the Supervision of Epidemic Models under Vaccination Controls
(MDPI, 2020-02-29)
This paper extends the formulation of the Shannon entropy under probabilistic uncertainties which are basically established in terms or relative errors related to the theoretical nominal set of events. Those uncertainties ...
