If you have a spring mass damper system, given by m*x_double_dot + c*x_dot + kx = 0 where m, c, k (all positive scalars) are the mass, damper coefficient, and spring coefficient, respectively. x ∈ R represents the displacement of the mass.
Let us then discuss the stability of the system by using Lyapunov stability theorem. Consider the system energy as a candidate Lyapunov function shown in the image.
Discuss the positive definiteness of V (x, x_dot).
Derive the Lyapunov rate of this system (i.e., V_dot ), and discuss the stability property of thesystem based on the information we gain from ̇V_dot .
In class, two approaches—Theorems 1 and 2 below—are discussed to prove asymptotic stability of asystem when ̇V = 0.
Show the asymptotic stability of the system given in Eq. (1) by applying Theorem 1.
Show the asymptotic stability of the system given in Eq. (1) by applying Theorem 2.
