Wavelets Based on Second Order Linear Time Invariant Systems, Theory and Applications
… from the response of Second Order Underdamped Linear-Time-Invariant (SOULTI) systems, while the second is a generalization of the first to the complex domain and is similar to the Laplace transform kernel function. The first takes the acronym of SOULTI wavelet, while the second is named the …

On the synthesis of switched output feedback controllers for linear, time-invariant systems
The theory of switching systems has seen many advances in the past decade. Its beginnings were founded primarily due to the physical limitations in devices to implement control such as relays, but today there exists a strong interest in the development of switching systems where switching is …

Numerical solutions of matrix equations arising in model reduction of large-scale linear -time -invariant systems
… matrix equations arising from model reduction of linear-time-invariant (LTI) systems. Such systems arise in a variety of areas, especially in circuit simulation. When an integrated circuit has millions of devices, performing a full-system simulation can be infeasible due to the time required for …

Nonlinear and Hybrid Feedbacks with Continuous-Time Linear Systems
In this thesis we study linear time-invariant systems feedback interconnected with three specific nonlinear blocks; a play/stop operator, a switching-reset mechanism, and an adaptive dead-zone. This setup resembles the Lure problem studied in the absolute stability framework, but the types of …

A general linear systems theory on time scales : transforms, stability, and control.
In this work, we examine linear systems theory in the arbitrary time scale setting by considering Laplace transforms, stability, controllability, and realizability. In particular, we revisit the definition of the Laplace transform by Bohner and Peterson in [10]. We provide sufficient conditions for …

Model Reduction Using Semidefinite Programming
In this thesis model reduction methods for linear time invariant systems are investigated. The reduced models are computed using semidefinite programming. Two ways of imposing the stability constraint are considered. However, both approaches add a positivity constraint to the program. The input to …
