ABSTRACT
We consider stabilisation for a nonlinear ordinary differential equation (ODE) and counter-convecting transport partial differential equations (PDEs) cascaded system in which the transport coefficients depend on the ODE state. Stability analysis of the closed-loop system is based on the infinite-dimensional backstepping transformations and a Lyapunov functional. A predictor control is proposed such that the closed-loop system is globally asymptotically stable. The proposed design method is illustrated by a single-link manipulator.
