Abstract
This study looks at the stability and stabilization issues concerning the nonlinear timedelay systems specified by conformable derivatives. These requirements can be used for many useful applications. Through the construction of appropriate Lyapunov–Krasovskii functionals, we develop novel linear matrix inequality (LMI) conditions for the exponential stability of autonomous systems and practical exponential stability for systems subject to bounded perturbations. Furthermore, we propose state-feedback stabilization strategies that transform the controller design problem into a convex optimization framework solvable via efficient LMI techniques. The theoretical developments are comprehensively validated through numerical examples that demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed stability and stabilization criteria. The results establish a rigorous framework for analyzing and controlling conformable fractional-order systems with time delays, bridging theoretical advances with practical implementation considerations.
