Estimating the ultimate bound and positively invariant set for a synchronous motor and its application in chaos synchronization (Q544982)

To estimate the ultimate bound and positively invariant set for a dynamic system is an important but quite challenging task in general. This paper investigates the ultimate bound and positively invariant set of a permanent magnet synchronous motor system. The authors combine the Lyapunov stability theory with the comparison principle. For this system, they derive a three-dimensional ellipsoidal ultimate bound and positively invariant set for all the positive values of its parameters \({\sigma, \gamma}\). In addition, the two-dimensional bound with respect to \({x-y}\) is established, together with a two-dimensional estimation on \({x-z}\). Finally, the result is applied to the study of complete chaos synchronization. Numerical simulations are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed chaos synchronization scheme. At the same time, a numerical example illustrating a localization of a chaotic attractor is presented. Numerical simulation is consistent with the results of theoretical calculations.
