We review the main design techniques of state observer design for continuous-time
dynamical systems, namely algorithms which reconstruct online the full information of a …

This article focuses on the class of linear systems coupled with a nonlinearity satisfying a
sector bound or a monotonic condition. First, we present a set of sufficient conditions based …

In this article, we study the problem of constant output regulation for a class of input-affine
multi-input multi-output nonlinear systems, which do not necessarily admit a normal form …

In this paper we focus on nonlinear systems composed by a linear term plus a nonlinearity
satisfying a monotonic or a sector bound condition. We present sufficient conditions based …

Contraction analysis considers the distance between two adjacent trajectories. If this
distance is contracting, then trajectories have the same long-term behavior. The main …

Synchronization in networked systems of diffusively coupled oscillators is a ubiquitous, well-
studied phenomenon, and many techniques have been proposed to control all the network …

Background and Purpose cAMP is a central second messenger that broadly regulates cell
function and can underpin pathophysiology. In chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, a …

In this paper, we study the notion of incremental stability for continuous-time nonlinear
systems forced by some external input. Thanks to the notion of “Killing vector field”, we …

In this work, we address the problem of designing a control law for a system in feedforward
form to be globally incrementally exponentially stable. To do that, we develop an …

In this article, our objective is to develop novel passivity-based control techniques by
introducing a new passivity concept named Krasovskii passivity. As a preliminary step, we …
