Finite-time Adaptive Synchronization Control of Complex Dynamical Networks With Nonlinear Couplings and Time-varying Delay

In this paper, the problems of finite-time synchronization control of complex dynamical networks with nonlinear couplings and time-varying delay are investigated using adaptive control methods. It is less conservative to solve the nonlinear coupling function between nodes in complex network by one-sided Lipschitz condition. The adaptive laws are derived to estimate unknown coupling strength and topological structure of complex dynamical networks. Finally, the effectiveness of the control method is verified by experimental simulation.
