Stochastic stability of Duffing–Mathieu system with delayed feedback control under white noise excitation

The asymptotic Lyapunov stability with probability one of Duffing–Mathieu system with time-delayed feedback control under white-noise parametric excitation is studied. First, the time-delayed feedback control force is expressed approximately in terms of the system state variables without time delay. Then, the averaged Itô stochastic differential equations for the system are derived by using the stochastic averaging method and the expression for the Lyapunov exponent of the linearized averaged Itô equations is derived. Finally, the effects of time delay in feedback control on the Lyapunov exponent and the stability of the system are analyzed. Meanwhile, the stability conditions for the system with different time delays are also obtained. The theoretical results are well verified through digital simulation.
