Construction Of Lyapunov Functions For Some Fourth Order
Nonlinear Ordinary Differential Equations By Method Of Integration
Orie Bassey O.
Abstract: In giving adequate attention to some qualitative properties of solutions in ordinary differential equations, Lyapunov functions is quite
indis-
pensable. The process of tackling some problems in the application is the construction of appropriate Lyapunov functions for some nonlinear fourth order
differential equation. Our focus is finding V(x), a quadratic form and positive definite also finding U(x) which is positive definite such that the
derivative
of V with respect to time would be equal to the negative value of U(x) In this work, we adopted the pre-multiplication of the given differential equation by

x and thereafter we integrated with respect to t
form
t  0 to t  T . We obtained a Lyapunov function candidate for a fourth order differential equa-
tion or its scalar equation.
