Continuous Dependence With Respect to the Input of Trajectories of Control-Affine Systems (1999)

Wensheng Liu, Héctor J. Sussmann

. We study the continuous dependence on the input of trajectories of control-affine systems belonging to the class C 0 (m) of all systems \Sigma of the form \Sigma : x = f 0 (x) + m X i=1 u i (t)f i...

Lie Bracket Extensions And Averaging: The Single-Bracket Case (1997)

Single-bracket Case, Héctor J. Sussmann, Wensheng Liu

We explain a general approximation technique for nonholonomic systems by discussing in detail a special example, chosen so as to illustrate some of the technical aspects of the general construction....

On finite gain stabilizability of linear systems subject to input saturation (1996)

Wensheng Liu, Yacine Chitour, Eduardo Sontag

Abstract. This paper deals with (global) finite-gain input/output stabilization of linear systems with saturated controls. For neutrally stable systems, it is shown that the linear feedback law...

Shortest paths for sub-Riemannian metrics on rank-two distributions (1995)

Wensheng Liu, Héctor J. Sussmann

We study length-minimizing arcs in sub-Riemannian manifolds (M;E;G) whose metric G is defined on a rank-two bracket-generating distribution E. It is well known that all length-minimizing arcs are...

On the continuity and incremental-gain properties of certain saturated linear feedback loops (1995)

Yacine Chitour, Wensheng Liu, Eduardo Sontag

summary This paper discusses various continuity and incremental-gain properties for neutrally stable linear systems under linear feedback subject to actuator saturation. The results complement our...

On the Continuity and Incremental-Gain Properties of Certain Saturated Linear Feedback Loops (1994)

Yacine Chitour, Wensheng Liu, Eduardo Sontag

This paper discusses various continuity and incremental-gain properties for neutrally stable linear systems under linear feedback subject to actuator saturation. The results complement our previous...

On Finite Gain Stabilizability of Linear Systems Subject to Input Saturation (1993)

Wensheng Liu, Yacine Chitour, Eduardo Sontag

This paper deals with (global) finite-gain input/output stabilization of linear systems with saturated controls. For neutrally stable systems, it is shown that the linear feedback law suggested by...

Motion Planning and Approximate Tracking for Controllable Systems without Drift (1991)

Hector J. Sussmann, Wensheng Liu

We describe an approach for motion planning for nonholonomic systems without drift based on a combination of (a) earlier work of Sussmann and Lafferriere and (b) some recent results on approximation...

Limits Of Highly Oscillatory Controls And The Approximation Of General Paths By Admissible Trajectories (1991)

Héctor J. Sussmann, Wensheng Liu

We describe sufficient conditions, extending earlier work by Kurzweil and Jarnik, for a sequence of inputs u j = (u j 1 ; : : : ; u j m ) 2 L 1 ([0; T ]; IR m ) to be such that, for every m-tuple (f...

The Research on Enterprise Manufacture Integrated and Collaborative Commerce System (1970)

Hechao Wang, Wensheng Liu

Global optimization and fast response ability in market cannot be simply achieved by computer automation without considering systematic application integration. The manufacturing enterprises need...

Mutations in Cytochrome c Oxidase Subunit VIa Cause Neurodegeneration and Motor Dysfunction in Drosophila

Liu, Wensheng, Gnanasambandam, Radhakrishnan, Benjamin, Jeffery, Kaur, Gunisha, Getman, Patricia B., Siegel, Alan J., ...

Mitochondrial dysfunction is involved in many neurodegenerative disorders in humans. Here we report mutations in a gene (designated levy) that codes for subunit VIa of cytochrome c oxidase (COX). The...
