Abstract:
This paper is concerned with the optimal finite-time stabilization problem for nonlinear systems. For the given stabilization strength, a new switching protocol is designed to stabilize the system with a fast speed. The obtained protocol covers both continuous control and discontinuous one under the framework of Filippov solutions. Some criteria are discussed in detail on how to choose an optimal protocol such that the finite stabilization time can be shortened. Finally, the main theory results are applied to the general neural networks by one numerical example to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed design method.

Feedback control systems
Linear feedback systems are theoretical models that simplify analysis and design. These systems operate under the principle that their output is directly proportional to their input within certain ranges. For instance, an amplifier in a control system behaves linearly as long as the input signal remains within a specific range. However, most physical systems exhibit inherent nonlinearity...
