Second-order sufficient conditions for strong solutions to optimal control problems

J. Frédéric Bonnans, Xavier Dupuis, Laurent Pfeiffer (2014)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this article, given a reference feasible trajectory of an optimal control problem, we say that the quadratic growth property for bounded strong solutions holds if the cost function of the problem has a quadratic growth over the set of feasible trajectories with a bounded control and with a state variable sufficiently close to the reference state variable. Our sufficient second-order optimality conditions in Pontryagin form ensure this property and ensure a fortiori that the reference trajectory...

Stability and stabilizability of a class of uncertain dynamical systems with delays

Mohammed Saadni, Driss Mehdi (2005)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This paper deals with a class of uncertain systems with time-varying delays and norm-bounded uncertainty. The stability and stabilizability of this class of systems are considered. Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMI) delay-dependent sufficient conditions for both stability and stabilizability and their robustness are established.

Stability and stabilizability of mixed retarded-neutral type systems

Rabah Rabah, Grigory Mikhailovitch Sklyar, Pavel Yurevitch Barkhayev (2012)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We analyze the stability and stabilizability properties of mixed retarded-neutral type systems when the neutral term may be singular. We consider an operator differential equation model of the system in a Hilbert space, and we are interested in the critical case when there is a sequence of eigenvalues with real parts converging to zero. In this case, the system cannot be exponentially stable, and we study conditions under which it will be strongly stable. The behavior of spectra of mixed retarded-neutral...

Stabilization of Timoshenko beam by means of pointwise controls

Gen-Qi Xu, Siu Pang Yung (2003)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We intend to conduct a fairly complete study on Timoshenko beams with pointwise feedback controls and seek to obtain information about the eigenvalues, eigenfunctions, Riesz-Basis-Property, spectrum-determined-growth-condition, energy decay rate and various stabilities for the beams. One major difficulty of the present problem is the non-simplicity of the eigenvalues. In fact, we shall indicate in this paper situations where the multiplicity of the eigenvalues is at least two. We build all the above-mentioned...

State elimination for nonlinear neutral state-space systems

Miroslav Halás, Pavol Bisták (2014)

Kybernetika

The problem of finding an input-output representation of a nonlinear state space system, usually referred to as the state elimination, plays an important role in certain control problems. Though, it has been shown that such a representation, at least locally, always exists for both the systems with and without delays, it might be a neutral input-output differential equation in the former case, even when one starts with a retarded system. In this paper the state elimination is therefore extended...

The algebraic structure of delay-differential systems: a behavioral perspective

Heide Glüsing-Lüerssen, Paolo Vettori, Sandro Zampieri (2001)

Kybernetika

This paper presents a survey on the recent contributions to linear time- invariant delay-differential systems in the behavioral approach. In this survey both systems with commensurate and with noncommensurate delays will be considered. The emphasis lies on the investigation of the relationship between various systems descriptions. While this can be understood in a completely algebraic setting for systems with commensurate delays, this is not the case for systems with noncommensurate delays. In the...

The dynamical Lame system : regularity of solutions, boundary controllability and boundary data continuation

M. I. Belishev, I. Lasiecka (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

The boundary control problem for the dynamical Lame system (isotropic elasticity model) is considered. The continuity of the “input state” map in L 2 -norms is established. A structure of the reachable sets for arbitrary T > 0 is studied. In general case, only the first component u ( · , T ) of the complete state { u ( · , T ) , u t ( · , T ) } may be controlled, an approximate controllability occurring in the subdomain filled with the shear (slow) waves. The controllability results are applied to the problem of the boundary data continuation....

Unbounded viscosity solutions of hybrid control systems

Guy Barles, Sheetal Dharmatti, Mythily Ramaswamy (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We study a hybrid control system in which both discrete and continuous controls are involved. The discrete controls act on the system at a given set interface. The state of the system is changed discontinuously when the trajectory hits predefined sets, namely, an autonomous jump set A or a controlled jump set C where controller can choose to jump or not. At each jump, trajectory can move to a different Euclidean space. We allow the cost functionals to be unbounded with certain growth and hence...
