Estimation of Basins of Attraction for Uncertain Systems with Affine and Lipschitz Dynamics

  • Published:
Dynamics and Control

Abstract

This paper is devoted to estimation and numerical approximation of basins of attraction for a class of uncertain systems. We consider systems described by a differential equation depending of a disturbance known by its bounds. By using viability theory tools, we derive basins of attraction lower and upper estimates. We present numerical simulation results of the viability kernel algorithm to basin of attraction approximation problems.
