Abstract
In this paper a method of determining a radius of a guaranteed robust region of attraction for nonlinear closed-loop uncertain systems is pr esented. The radius formula contains parameter-dependent eigenvalues o f the matrix of the parametrized quadratic Lyapunov function. As these eigenvalues usually are not analytically calculable, one can apply an algebraic estimation technique for eigenvalues. In this paper the con cept of Gershgorin discs is used. A numerical example is included for a second-order system. (C) 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
