Finite-time synchronization of delayed directed networks via periodically intermittent pinning control*

The finite-time synchronous problem of complex networks with delays by way of periodicity and intermittency pinning control is investigated in this thesis. The finite-time synchronization conditions of directed networks are gotten in terms of finite-time stability theory, the differential inequality and the matrix theory. In addition, by combining periodically intermittent and pinning control methods, a periodically intermittent pinning controller is designed. Ultimately numerical modeling is presented to illustrate the effectiveness and validity of the consequences.
