Abstract

The aim of the present project is to study the solution of switched systems using Lyapunov-like functions. The project involves obtaining invariant sets via level sets and the study of stabilizing switching rules. The Matlab will be used to simulate the solution of the switched systems considered. The project is associated to a doctor thesis and to a scientific initiation student project intitled "Switching control design for photovoltaic arrays with a DC-DC converter driver" also submitted to the FAPESP.
