✦ Synopsis


In reference [1], the authors consider an n-degree-of-freedom linear system represented by

for all te0, where the vectors

The authors apply a linear change of co-ordinates to system (1) to obtain y¨(t)+C y˙(t)+L k y(t)=h(t), (2) for all tr0, where y(t), h(t) $ R n , C $ R n×n and L k $ R n×n is a diagonal matrix. The authors let C =[c ij ] and define DMdiag [c 11 , c 22 , . . . , c nn ]. Then, they define a new index of non-proportionality as
