On the stability of a class of slowly varying systems

Slowly varying systems are common in physics and control engineering and thus stability analysis for those systems has drawn considerable attention in the literature. This paper uses the “frozen time approach” to derive Lyapunov inequality conditions for the stability of a wide class of slowly varying systems. These conditions refine those developed in (Khalil in Nonlinear Systems, 2002) and display generality and effectiveness for both linear …
