Attainability analysis in the problem of stochastic equilibria synthesis for nonlinear discrete systems

Irina Bashkirtseva, Lev Ryashko (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

A nonlinear discrete-time control system forced by stochastic disturbances is considered. We study the problem of synthesis of the regulator which stabilizes an equilibrium of the deterministic system and provides required scattering of random states near this equilibrium for the corresponding stochastic system. Our approach is based on the stochastic sensitivity functions technique. The necessary and important part of the examined control problem is an analysis of attainability. For 2D systems,...

Automatic control of mechatronic systems

Kurt Schlacher, Andreas Kugi (2001)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This contribution deals with different concepts of nonlinear control for mechatronic systems. Since most physical systems are nonlinear in nature, it is quite obvious that an improvement in the performance of the closed loop can often be achieved only by means of control techniques that take the essential nonlinearities into consideration. Nevertheless, it can be observed that industry often hesitates to implement these nonlinear controllers, despite all advantages existing from the theoretical...

Bilinear system as a modelling framework for analysis of microalgal growth

Štěpán Papáček, Sergej Čelikovský, Dalibor Štys, Javier Ruiz (2007)

Kybernetika

A mathematical model of the microalgal growth under various light regimes is required for the optimization of design parameters and operating conditions in a photobioreactor. As its modelling framework, bilinear system with single input is chosen in this paper. The earlier theoretical results on bilinear systems are adapted and applied to the special class of the so-called intermittent controls which are characterized by rapid switching of light and dark cycles. Based on such approach, the following...

Boundary layer phenomenon for three -point boundary value problem for the nonlinear singularly perturbed systems

Robert Vrabel (2011)

Kybernetika

This paper deals with the three-point boundary value problem for the nonlinear singularly perturbed second-order systems. Especially, we focus on an analysis of the solutions in the right endpoint of considered interval from an appearance of the boundary layer point of view. We use the method of lower and upper solutions combined with analysis of the integral equation associated with the class of nonlinear systems considered here.

Compact Global Chaotic Attractors of Discrete Control Systems

David Cheban (2014)

Nonautonomous Dynamical Systems

The paper is dedicated to the study of the problem of existence of compact global chaotic attractors of discrete control systems and to the description of its structure. We consider so called switched systems with discrete time xn+1 = fν(n)(xn), where ν : ℤ+ ⃗ {1,2,...,m}. If m ≥ 2 we give sufficient conditions (the family M := {f1,f2,...,fm} of functions is contracting in the extended sense) for the existence of a compact global chaotic attractor. We study this problem in the framework of non-autonomous...

Comparison of linear control methods for an AMB system

Wojciech Grega, Adam Pilat (2005)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The contactless nature of active magnetic bearings brings about many advantages over the conventional bearing while industrial real-time applications are often limited by the significant complexity of control algorithms. This paper presents the application of an LQ controller to an active magnetic bearing system (AMB). Two control strategies are presented and compared: local and global. In the first case the rotor is modelled as two separated masses located at the bearing. In the second case rotor...

Comparison of six models of antiangiogenic therapy

Andrzej Świerniak (2009)

Applicationes Mathematicae

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.

Cone-type constrained relative controllability of semilinear fractional systems with delays

Beata Sikora, Jerzy Klamka (2017)

Kybernetika

The paper presents fractional-order semilinear, continuous, finite-dimensional dynamical systems with multiple delays both in controls and nonlinear function f . The constrained relative controllability of the presented semilinear system and corresponding linear one are discussed. New criteria of constrained relative controllability for the fractional semilinear systems with delays under assumptions put on the control values are established and proved. The conical type constraints are considered....

Conjugate and cut time in the sub-Riemannian problem on the group of motions of a plane

Yuri L. Sachkov (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

The left-invariant sub-Riemannian problem on the group of motions (rototranslations) of a plane SE(2) is studied. Local and global optimality of extremal trajectories is characterized. Lower and upper bounds on the first conjugate time are proved. The cut time is shown to be equal to the first Maxwell time corresponding to the group of discrete symmetries of the exponential mapping. Optimal synthesis on an open dense subset of the state space is described.

Consensus-based impact-time-control guidance law for cooperative attack of multiple missiles

Qing Zhu, Xiaoli Wang, Qianyu Lin (2017)

Kybernetika

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 controllability of nonlinear stochastic impulsive systems

Shanmugasundaram Karthikeyan, Krishnan Balachandran (2011)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This paper is concerned with complete controllability of a class of nonlinear stochastic systems involving impulsive effects in a finite time interval by means of controls whose initial and final values can be assigned in advance. The result is achieved by using a fixed-point argument.
