Asymptotic Stability of Delay-Controlled Nonlinear Stochastic Systems with Actuator Failures

The problem of asymptotic stability of delay-controlled nonlinear stochastic systems with actuator failures is investigated in this paper. Such a system is formulated as a continuous-discrete hybrid system based on the random switch model of failure-prone actuator. Time delay control force is converted into delay-free one by randomly periodic characteristic of the system. Using limit theorem and stochastic averaging, an approximate formula for the largest Lyapunov exponent of the original system is then derived, from which necessary and sufficient conditions for asymptotic stability are obtained. The validity and utility of the proposed procedure are demonstrated by using a stochastically driven nonlinear two-degree system with time delay feedback and actuator failure.
