Asymptotic analysis and control of a hybrid system composed by two vibrating strings connected by a point mass

C. Castro (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We consider a hybrid, one-dimensional, linear system consisting in two flexible strings connected by a point mass. It is known that this system presents two interesting features. First, it is well posed in an asymmetric space in which solutions have one more degree of regularity to one side of the point mass. Second, that the spectral gap vanishes asymptotically. We prove that the first property is a consequence of the second one. We also consider a system in which the point mass is replaced...

Asymptotic null controllability of bilinear systems

Fritz Colonius, Wolfgang Kliemann (1995)

Banach Center Publications

The region of asymptotic null controllability of bilinear systems with control constraints is characterized using Lyapunov exponents. It is given by the cone over the region of attraction of the maximal control set in projective space containing zero in its spectral interval.

Asymptotic properties and optimization of some non-Markovian stochastic processes

Evgueni I. Gordienko, Antonio Garcia, Juan Ruiz de Chavez (2009)

Kybernetika

We study the limit behavior of certain classes of dependent random sequences (processes) which do not possess the Markov property. Assuming these processes depend on a control parameter we show that the optimization of the control can be reduced to a problem of nonlinear optimization. Under certain hypotheses we establish the stability of such optimization problems.

Asymptotic stability condition for stochastic Markovian systems of differential equations

Efraim Shmerling (2010)

Mathematica Bohemica

Asymptotic stability of the zero solution for stochastic jump parameter systems of differential equations given by d X ( t ) = A ( ξ ( t ) ) X ( t ) d t + H ( ξ ( t ) ) X ( t ) d w ( t ) , where ξ ( t ) is a finite-valued Markov process and w(t) is a standard Wiener process, is considered. It is proved that the existence of a unique positive solution of the system of coupled Lyapunov matrix equations derived in the paper is a necessary asymptotic stability condition.

Asymptotic stability of linear conservative systems when coupled with diffusive systems

Denis Matignon, Christophe Prieur (2005)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this paper we study linear conservative systems of finite dimension coupled with an infinite dimensional system of diffusive type. Computing the time-derivative of an appropriate energy functional along the solutions helps us to prove the well-posedness of the system and a stability property. But in order to prove asymptotic stability we need to apply a sufficient spectral condition. We also illustrate the sharpness of this condition by exhibiting some systems for which we do not have the asymptotic...

Asymptotic stability of wave equations with memory and frictional boundary dampings

Fatiha Alabau-Boussouira (2008)

Applicationes Mathematicae

This work is concerned with stabilization of a wave equation by a linear boundary term combining frictional and memory damping on part of the boundary. We prove that the energy decays to zero exponentially if the kernel decays exponentially at infinity. We consider a slightly different boundary condition than the one used by M. Aassila et al. [Calc. Var. 15, 2002]. This allows us to avoid the assumption that the part of the boundary where the feedback is active is strictly star-shaped. The result...

Asymptotically optimal filtering in linear systems with fractional Brownian noises.

Marina L. Kleptsyna, Alain Le Breton, Michel Viot (2004)

SORT

In this paper, the filtering problem is revisited in the basic Gaussian homogeneous linear system driven by fractional Brownian motions. We exhibit a simple approximate filter which is asymptotically optimal in the sense that, when the observation time tends to infinity, the variance of the corresponding filtering error converges to the same limit as for the exact optimal filter.

Asymptotics of accessibility sets along an abnormal trajectory

Emmanuel Trélat (2001)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We describe precisely, under generic conditions, the contact of the accessibility set at time T with an abnormal direction, first for a single-input affine control system with constraint on the control, and then as an application for a sub-riemannian system of rank 2. As a consequence we obtain in sub-riemannian geometry a new splitting-up of the sphere near an abnormal minimizer γ into two sectors, bordered by the first Pontryagin’s cone along γ , called the L -sector and the L 2 -sector. Moreover we...

Asynchronous distributed state estimation for continuous-time stochastic processes

Zdzisław Kowalczuk, Mariusz Domżalski (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The problem of state estimation of a continuous-time stochastic process using an Asynchronous Distributed multi-sensor Estimation (ADE) system is considered. The state of a process of interest is estimated by a group of local estimators constituting the proposed ADE system. Each estimator is based, e.g., on a Kalman filter and performs single sensor filtration and fusion of its local results with the results from other/remote processors to compute possibly the best state estimates. In performing...

Asynchronous sampling-based leader- following consensus in second-order multi-agent systems

Zhengxin Wang, Yuanzhen Feng, Cong Zheng, Yanling Lu, Lijun Pan (2018)

Kybernetika

This paper studies the leader-following consensus problem of second-order multi-agent systems with directed topologies. By employing the asynchronous sampled-data protocols, sufficient conditions for leader-following consensus with both constant velocity leader and variable velocity leader are derived. Leader-following quasi-consensus can be achieved in multi-agent systems when all the agents sample the information asynchronously. Numerical simulations are provided to verify the theoretical results....
