A unifying approach for studying the behaviour and control of perturbations in variable structure systems
Abstract
The behaviour of perturbations around trajectories of variable structure systems is studied and a sensitivity formula is derived. This formula is used to adapt classical shooting algorithms for computing periodic solutions to piecewise smooth systems. The influence of switching boundaries on the stability of periodic solutions is studied within a control theory approach.
