Abstract :
The aim of this paper consists of providing a more general and flexible methodology for the stability analysis of nonlinear singularly perturbed systems. Starting from slow and fast comparison principles, for each subsystem, a two-time scale comparison principle is constructed for the full-order singularly perturbed system to conclude its stability. The technique results natural and appropriate for studying stability for this class of systems and obtaining an upper bound for the singular perturbation parameter. To illustrate the procedure an example for the position control of a dc-motor with unmodelled dynamics is worked out
