Projection-Based Adaptive Backstepping Control of a Transport Aircraft for Heavyweight Airdrop by Ri Liu, Xiuxia Sun, Wenhan Dong, Guangzhi Xu

“…The complex nonlinear uncertainty of the aircraft-cargo model is factorized into a known matrix and an uncertainty function, and a projection-based adaptive approach is proposed to estimate this function. Using projection in the adaptation law bounds the estimated function and guarantees the robustness of the controller against time-varying external disturbances and uncertainties. …”

Finite-Time Projective Synchronization of Fractional-Order Memristive Neural Networks with Mixed Time-Varying Delays by Meng Hui, Chen Wei, Jiao Zhang, Herbert Ho-Ching Iu, Ni Luo, Rui Yao, Lin Bai

“…Meanwhile, three properties are established to deal with different forms of the finite-time fractional differential inequation, which greatly extend some results on estimation of settling time of FMNNs. In addition to the traditional Lyapunov function with 1-norm form in Theorem 1, a more general and flexible Lyapunov function based on p-norm is constructed in Theorem 2 to analyze the finite-time projective synchronization problem, and the estimation of settling time has been verified less conservative than previous results. …”
