β¦ Synopsis
When a control system contains a hysteretic nonlinearity, oriaidead time element (transportation lag), or a distributed lag, the system may be described by a characteristic equation with complex coeficients which are junctions of dependent variables. The characteristic equation is partitioned and root locus methods are used to analyze stability, existence and characteristics of limit cycles, damping characteristics of stable systems, etc. Control systems with frequency dependent, hysteretic, nonlinearities and with adjustable parameters are analyzed using parameter plane and parameter space methods.

## Periodic excitations introduced into time lag systems can stabilize unstable equilibria or induce stable periodic solutions with the desired properties. The resulting open-loop technique termed vibrational control can be useful when on-line measurements are not available.
This paper gives two theorems for the stability nnd asymptotic stability of control systems with multiple nonlinearities and multiple inputs. A frequency criterion is used in connection with the transfer junction matrix which may have elements involving simple poles on the imaginary axis. Theorem I
This paper deals with the problem of production and advertising policy for a decaying item whose gradual loss of potential or utility is associated with the passage of time, such as grain, photographic film or electronic components. The delay effects of the advertisement on the sales rate are also c
