The paper investigates and proves the statement, that the convex hull of the polytopic tensor product (TP) model representation influences the feasibility of linear matrix inequality (LMI) based stability analysis methods. The proof is based on a complex stability analysis example of a given quasi linear parameter varying (qLPV) state‐space model. Specifically, the three degree of freedom (3‐DoF) aeroelastic wing section model including Stribeck friction is used as the tool for the example model. The proof is achieved by utilizing TP model transformation and LMI based tools. As a first step, numerous TP model type control solutions holding different convex hulls are systematically derived of the qLPV model via LMI based control design methods. As a second step, each control solution is further equivalently transformed for different TP model representations holding different convex hulls. Finally, the stability of all solutions over all TP model representations are checked via LMI based stability analysis methods. As a result of the two steps, a two dimensional (2D) convex hull space is attained for the 3‐DoF aeroelastic wing section model. The two dimensions are denoted by the LMI based control design and the LMI based stability analysis for different convex hulls. Based on the numerical results, a detailed, comprehensive analysis is provided. The paper as a novelty proves the statement, that the polytopic TP model representation of a given control solution strongly influences the feasibility of LMI based stability analysis methods.
