Comparison of active control techniques over a dihedral plane
This work is devoted to the numerical comparison of four active control techniques in order to increase the pressure recovery generated by the deceleration of a slightly compressible viscous flow over a dihedral plane. It is performed by the use of vortex generator jets and intrusive sensors. The governing equations, the two-dimensional direct numerical simulation code and the flow configuration are first briefly recalled. Then, the objective of the control is carefully displayed, and the uncontrolled...

Comparison of six models of antiangiogenic therapy
Six models of antiangiogenic therapy are compared and analyzed from control-theoretic point of view. All of them consist of a model of tumor growth bounded by the capacity of a vascular network developed by the tumor in the process of angiogenesis and different models of dynamics of this network, and are based on the idea proposed by Hahnfeldt et al. Moreover, we analyse optimal control problems resulting from their use in treatment protocol design.
Consensus-based impact-time-control guidance law for cooperative attack of multiple missiles
In this paper, a new guidance problem with the impact time constraint for cooperative attack of multiple missiles is investigated, which can be applied to salvo attack of anti-ship missiles. It can be used to guide multiple missiles to hit a stationary target simultaneously at a desirable impact time. The considered impact time control problem can be transformed into a range tracking problem. Then the range tracking problem can be viewed a consensus problem of multi-missile systems. As the application...
Constrained stabilization of a dynamic systems: a case study
In this work we consider the problem of determining and implementing a state feedback stabilizing control law for a laboratory two-tank dynamic system in the presence of state and control constraints. We do this by exploiting the properties of the polyhedral Lyapunov functions, i. e. Lyapunov functions whose level surfaces are polyhedra, in view of their capability of providing an arbitrarily good approximation of the maximal set of attraction, which is the largest set of initial states which can...

Control of an induction motor using sliding mode linearization
Nonlinear control of the squirrel induction motor is designed using sliding mode theory. The developed approach leads to the design of a sliding mode controller in order to linearize the behaviour of an induction motor. The second problem described in the paper is decoupling between two physical outputs: the rotor speed and the rotor flux modulus. The sliding mode tools allow us to separate the control from these two outputs. To take account of parametric variations, a model-based approach is used...
Control structure in optimization problems of bar systems
Optimal design problems in mechanics can be mathematically formulated as optimal control tasks. The minimum principle is employed in solving such problems. This principle allows us to write down optimal design problems as Multipoint Boundary Value Problems (MPBVPs). The dimension of MPBVPs is an essential restriction that decides on numerical difficulties. Optimal control theory does not give much information about the control structure, i.e., about the sequence of the forms of the right-hand sides...
