Abstract

Finite-time stability is investigated for a class of nonlinear systems and a new design is presented for globally finite-time stabilising feedback, extending the results obtained in Huang, Lin, and Yang (Citation2005) [‘Global Finite-time Stabilization of a Class of Uncertain Nonlinear Systems’, Automatica, 41, 881–888]. The new method may achieve accelerated convergence speed and reduced settling time. An example verifies the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed design.
