Delay-dependent robust stability conditions and decay estimates for systems with input delays

Kostas Hrissagis, Olga I. Kosmidou (1998)

Kybernetika

The robust stabilization of uncertain systems with delays in the manipulated variables is considered in this paper. Sufficient conditions are derived that guarantee closed-loop stability under state-feedback control in the presence of nonlinear and/or time-varying perturbations. The stability conditions are given in terms of scalar inequalities and do not require the solution of Lyapunov or Riccati equations. Instead, induced norms and matrix measures are used to yield some easy to test robust stability...

Deterministic minimax impulse control in finite horizon: the viscosity solution approach

Brahim El Asri (2013)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We study here the impulse control minimax problem. We allow the cost functionals and dynamics to be unbounded and hence the value functions can possibly be unbounded. We prove that the value function of the problem is continuous. Moreover, the value function is characterized as the unique viscosity solution of an Isaacs quasi-variational inequality. This problem is in relation with an application in mathematical finance.

Event-triggered design for multi-agent optimal consensus of Euler-Lagrangian systems

Xue-Fang Wang, Zhenhua Deng, Song Ma, Xian Du (2017)

Kybernetika

In this paper, a distributed optimal consensus problem is investigated to achieve the optimization of the sum of local cost function for a group of agents in the Euler-Lagrangian (EL) system form. We consider that the local cost function of each agent is only known by itself and cannot be shared with others, which brings challenges in this distributed optimization problem. A novel gradient-based distributed continuous-time algorithm with the parameters of EL system is proposed, which takes the distributed...

Existence and controllability for nondensely defined partial neutral functional differential inclusions

Khalil Ezzinbi, Soumia Lalaoui Rhali (2015)

Applications of Mathematics

We give sufficient conditions for the existence of integral solutions for a class of neutral functional differential inclusions. The assumptions on the generator are reduced by considering nondensely defined Hille-Yosida operators. Existence and controllability results are established by combining the theory of addmissible multivalued contractions and Frigon's fixed point theorem. These results are applied to a neutral partial differential inclusion with diffusion.

Existence and controllability of fractional-order impulsive stochastic system with infinite delay

Toufik Guendouzi (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

This paper is concerned with the existence and approximate controllability for impulsive fractional-order stochastic infinite delay integro-differential equations in Hilbert space. By using Krasnoselskii's fixed point theorem with stochastic analysis theory, we derive a new set of sufficient conditions for the approximate controllability of impulsive fractional stochastic system under the assumption that the corresponding linear system is approximately controllable. Finally, an example is provided...

Existence and controllability results for semilinear neutral functional differential inclusions with nonlocal conditions

S.K. Ntouyas, D. O'Regan (2007)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

In this paper, we prove existence and controllability results for first and second order semilinear neutral functional differential inclusions with finite or infinite delay in Banach spaces, with nonlocal conditions. Our theory makes use of analytic semigroups and fractional powers of closed operators, integrated semigroups and cosine families.

Fault tolerant control for uncertain time-delay systems based on sliding mode control

Jun Sheng Wu, Zhengxin Weng, Zuo Hua Tian, Song Jiao Shi (2008)

Kybernetika

Fault tolerant control for uncertain systems with time varying state-delay is studied in this paper. Based on sliding mode controller design, a fault tolerant control method is proposed. By means of the feasibility of some linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), delay dependent sufficient condition is derived for the existence of a linear sliding surface which guarantees quadratic stability of the reduced-order equivalent system restricted to the sliding surface. A reaching motion controller, which can...

How humans fly

Alain Ajami, Jean-Paul Gauthier, Thibault Maillot, Ulysse Serres (2013)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

This paper is devoted to the general problem of reconstructing the cost from the observation of trajectories, in a problem of optimal control. It is motivated by the following applied problem, concerning HALE drones: one would like them to decide by themselves for their trajectories, and to behave at least as a good human pilot. This applied question is very similar to the problem of determining what is minimized in human locomotion. These starting points are the reasons for the particular classes...
