An SFDI observer-based scheme for a general aviation aircraft

Marco Ariola, Massimiliano Mattei, Immacolata Notaro, Federico Corraro, Adolfo Sollazzo (2015)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The problem of detecting and isolating sensor faults (sensor fault detection and isolation-SFDI) on a general aviation aircraft, in the presence of external disturbances, is considered. The proposed approach consists of an extended Kalman observer applied to an augmented aircraft plant, where some integrators are added to the output variables subject to faults. The output of the integrators should be ideally zero in the absence of model uncertainties, external disturbances and sensor faults. A threshold-based...

An SQP trust region method for solving the discrete-time linear quadratic control problem

El-Sayed M.E. Mostafa (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

In this paper, a sequential quadratic programming method combined with a trust region globalization strategy is analyzed and studied for solving a certain nonlinear constrained optimization problem with matrix variables. The optimization problem is derived from the infinite-horizon linear quadratic control problem for discrete-time systems when a complete set of state variables is not available. Moreover, a parametrization approach is introduced that does not require starting a feasible solution...

An unbounded Berge's minimum theorem with applications to discounted Markov decision processes

Raúl Montes-de-Oca, Enrique Lemus-Rodríguez (2012)

Kybernetika

This paper deals with a certain class of unbounded optimization problems. The optimization problems taken into account depend on a parameter. Firstly, there are established conditions which permit to guarantee the continuity with respect to the parameter of the minimum of the optimization problems under consideration, and the upper semicontinuity of the multifunction which applies each parameter into its set of minimizers. Besides, with the additional condition of uniqueness of the minimizer, its...

An unconditionally stable nonstandard finite difference method applied to a mathematical model of HIV infection

Hasim A. Obaid, Rachid Ouifki, Kailash C. Patidar (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

We formulate and analyze an unconditionally stable nonstandard finite difference method for a mathematical model of HIV transmission dynamics. The dynamics of this model are studied using the qualitative theory of dynamical systems. These qualitative features of the continuous model are preserved by the numerical method that we propose in this paper. This method also preserves the positivity of the solution, which is one of the essential requirements when modeling epidemic diseases. Robust numerical...

An unscented Kalman filter in designing dynamic GMDH neural networks for robust fault detection

Marcin Mrugalski (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This paper presents an identification method of dynamic systems based on a group method of data handling approach. In particular, a new structure of the dynamic multi-input multi-output neuron in a state-space representation is proposed. Moreover, a new training algorithm of the neural network based on the unscented Kalman filter is presented. The final part of the work contains an illustrative example regarding the application of the proposed approach to robust fault detection of a tunnel furnace....

Analyse régionale des systèmes distribués

A. El Jai (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Le but de cet article est de montrer l’état de l’art dans l’analyse des systèmes distribués lorsque l’on examine certains concepts à partir de considérations régionales. Autrement dit, à partir de la donnée d’un système dynamique défini sur un domaine Ω , on ne s’intéresse à sa contrôlabilité, à son observabilité, à sa stabilité, ... que sur une région privilégiée ω , ω ⊂ Ω . Partant de concepts classiques, on développe leur adaptation au cas régional. On développe ensuite des concepts régionaux propres...

Analysis of a time optimal control problem related to the management of a bioreactor

Lino J. Alvarez-Vázquez, Francisco J. Fernández, Aurea Martínez (2011)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We consider a time optimal control problem arisen from the optimal management of a bioreactor devoted to the treatment of eutrophicated water. We formulate this realistic problem as a state-control constrained time optimal control problem. After analyzing the state system (a complex system of coupled partial differential equations with non-smooth coefficients for advection-diffusion-reaction with Michaelis-Menten kinetics, modelling the eutrophication processes) we demonstrate the existence of,...

Analysis of an on-off intermittency system with adjustable state levels

Shi-Jian Cang, Zeng-Qiang Chen, Zhu Zhi Yuan (2008)

Kybernetika

We consider a chaotic system with a double-scroll attractor proposed by Elwakil, composing with a second-order system, which has low-dimensional multiple invariant subspaces and multi-level on-off intermittency. This type of composite system always includes a skew-product structure and some invariant subspaces, which are associated with different levels of laminar phase. In order for the level of laminar phase be adjustable, we adopt a nonlinear function with saturation characteristic to tune the...

Analysis of some dual properties in discrete dynamic systems

Aleksey Zhirabok (2006)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The problem of duality in nonlinear and linear systems is considered. In addition to the known duality between controllability and observability, new dual notions and their properties are investigated. A way to refine these properties through an isomorphic transformation of the original systems is suggested.

Analysis of Space-Temporal Symmetry in the Early Embryogenesis of Calla palustris L., Araceae

I.V. Rudskiy, G.E. Titova, T.B. Batygina (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Plants and animals have highly ordered structure both in time and in space, and one of the main questions of modern developmental biology is the transformation of genetic information into the regular structure of organism. Any multicellular plant begins its development from the universal unicellular state and acquire own species-specific structure in the course of cell divisions, cell growth and death, according to own developmental program. However the cellular mechanisms of plant development are...

Analysis of structural properties of Petri nets based on product incidence matrix

Guangyou Ji, Mingzhe Wang (2013)

Kybernetika

This paper presents some structural properties of a generalized Petri net (PN) with an algorithm to determine the (partial) conservativeness and (partial) consistency of the net. A product incidence matrix A = C C T or A ˜ = C T C is defined and used to further improve the relations among PNs, linear inequalities and matrix analysis. Thus, based on Cramer’s Rule, a new approach for the study of the solution of a linear system is given in terms of certain sub-determinants of the coefficient matrix and an efficient...
