Abstract :
A design method is developed for a class of controllers which bound a nonlinear control systems response within prescribed specifications for a set of initial conditions. The design method is based upon the quantitative properties of a class of Lyapunov functions and a time domain ratio criterion. A digital computer algorithm which permits the automation of a large portion of the design method is presented.
