Exponential stability of hybrid switched nonlinear singular systems with time-varying delay

We address exponential stability of switched nonlinear singular systems with time-delay in which delay is time varying and presents in the states. For switched nonlinear singular time-delay systems with average dwell-time switching signals, we provide sufficient conditions, in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) to guarantee the exponential stability of such systems. By using Lyapunov-like Krasovskii approach, the relationship between the average dwell-time of the switched nonlinear singular time-delay system and the exponential decay rate of differential and algebraic states is given. A numerical example is also included to illustrate the effectiveness of the results proposed in this paper.
