Nonlinear bounded control for time-delay systems

Germain Garcia, Sophie Tarbouriech (2001)

Kybernetika

A method to derive a nonlinear bounded state feedback controller for a linear continuous-time system with time-delay in the state is proposed. The controllers are based on an e -parameterized family of algebraic Riccati equations or on an e -parameterized family of LMI optimization problems. Hence, nested ellipsoidal neighborhoods of the origin are determined. Thus, from the Lyapunov–Krasovskii theorem, the uniform asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system is guaranteed and a certain performance...

Nonlinear controller design of a ship autopilot

Mirosław Tomera (2010)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The main goal here is to design a proper and efficient controller for a ship autopilot based on the sliding mode control method. A hydrodynamic numerical model of CyberShip II including wave effects is applied to simulate the ship autopilot system by using time domain analysis. To compare the results similar research was conducted with the PD controller, which was adapted to the autopilot system. The differences in simulation results between two controllers are analyzed by a cost function composed...

Nonlinear diagnostic filter design: algebraic and geometric points of view

Alexey Shumsky, Alexey Zhirabok (2006)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The problem of diagnostic filter design is studied. Algebraic and geometric approaches to solving this problem are investigated. Some relations between these approaches are established. New definitions of fault detectability and isolability are formulated. On the basis of these definitions, a procedure for diagnostic filter design is given in both algebraic and geometric terms.

Nonlinear feedback stabilization of a rotating body-beam without damping

Boumediène CHENTOUF, Jean-François COUCHOURON (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

This paper deals with nonlinear feedback stabilization problem of a flexible beam clamped at a rigid body and free at the other end. We assume that there is no damping and the feedback law proposed here consists of a nonlinear control torque applied to the rigid body and either a boundary control moment or a nonlinear boundary control force or both of them applied to the free end of the beam. This nonlinear feedback, which insures the exponential decay of the beam vibrations, extends the linear...

Nonlinear feedback stabilization of a two-dimensional Burgers equation

Laetitia Thevenet, Jean-Marie Buchot, Jean-Pierre Raymond (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this paper, we study the stabilization of a two-dimensional Burgers equation around a stationary solution by a nonlinear feedback boundary control. We are interested in Dirichlet and Neumann boundary controls. In the literature, it has already been shown that a linear control law, determined by stabilizing the linearized equation, locally stabilizes the two-dimensional Burgers equation. In this paper, we define a nonlinear control law which also provides a local exponential stabilization of...

Nonlinear filtering for Markov systems with delayed observations

Antonella Calzolari, Patrick Florchinger, Giovanna Nappo (2009)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This paper deals with nonlinear filtering problems with delays, i.e., we consider a system (X,Y), which can be represented by means of a system (X,Ŷ), in the sense that Yt = Ŷa(t), where a(t) is a delayed time transformation. We start with X being a Markov process, and then study Markovian systems, not necessarily diffusive, with correlated noises. The interest is focused on the existence of explicit representations of the corresponding filters as functionals depending on the observed trajectory....

Nonlinear model predictive control of a boiler unit: A fault tolerant control study

Krzysztof Patan, Józef Korbicz (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This paper deals with a nonlinear model predictive control designed for a boiler unit. The predictive controller is realized by means of a recurrent neural network which acts as a one-step ahead predictor. Then, based on the neural predictor, the control law is derived solving an optimization problem. Fault tolerant properties of the proposed control system are also investigated. A set of eight faulty scenarios is prepared to verify the quality of the fault tolerant control. Based of different faulty...

Non-linear observer design method based on dissipation normal form

Václav Černý, Josef Hrušák (2005)

Kybernetika

Observer design is one of large fields investigated in automatic control theory and a lot of articles have already been dedicated to it in technical literature. Non-linear observer design method based on dissipation normal form proposed in the paper represents a new approach to solving the observer design problem for a certain class of non-linear systems. As the theoretical basis of the approach the well known dissipative system theory has been chosen. The main achievement of the contribution consists...

Nonlinear observers for locally uniformly observable systems

Hassan Hammouri, M. Farza (2003)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

This paper deals with the observability analysis and the observer synthesis of a class of nonlinear systems. In the single output case, it is known [4, 5, 6] that systems which are observable independently of the inputs, admit an observable canonical form. These systems are called uniformly observable systems. Moreover, a high gain observer for these systems can be designed on the basis of this canonical form. In this paper, we extend the above results to multi-output uniformly observable systems....

Nonlinear observers in reflexive Banach spaces

Jean-François Couchouron, P. Ligarius (2003)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

On an arbitrary reflexive Banach space, we build asymptotic observers for an abstract class of nonlinear control systems with possible compact outputs. An important part of this paper is devoted to various examples, where we discuss the existence of persistent inputs which make the system observable. These results make a wide generalization to a nonlinear framework of previous works on the observation problem in infinite dimension (see [11, 18, 22, 26, 27, 38, 40] and other references therein).
