Decomposition of a second-order linear time-varying differential system as the series connection of two first order commutative pairs

Mehmet Emir Koksal (2016)

Open Mathematics

Necessary and sufficiently conditions are derived for the decomposition of a second order linear time- varying system into two cascade connected commutative first order linear time-varying subsystems. The explicit formulas describing these subsystems are presented. It is shown that a very small class of systems satisfies the stated conditions. The results are well verified by simulations. It is also shown that its cascade synthesis is less sensitive to numerical errors than the direct simulation...

Design of passive fault-tolerant controllers of a quadrotor based on sliding mode theory

Abdel-Razzak Merheb, Hassan Noura, François Bateman (2015)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

In this paper, sliding mode control is used to develop two passive fault tolerant controllers for an AscTec Pelican UAV quadrotor. In the first approach, a regular sliding mode controller (SMC) augmented with an integrator uses the robustness property of variable structure control to tolerate partial actuator faults. The second approach is a cascaded sliding mode controller with an inner and outer SMC loops. In this configuration, faults are tolerated in the fast inner loop controlling the velocity...

Detection and identification of loss of efficiency faults of flight actuators

Daniel Ossmann, Andreas Varga (2015)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

We propose linear parameter-varying (LPV) model-based approaches to the synthesis of robust fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) systems for loss of efficiency (LOE) faults of flight actuators. The proposed methods are applicable to several types of parametric (or multiplicative) LOE faults such as actuator disconnection, surface damage, actuator power loss or stall loads. For the detection of these parametric faults, advanced LPV-model detection techniques are proposed, which implicitly provide...

Differential stability of solutions to air quality control problems in urban area

Piotr Holnicki, Jan Sokołowski, Antoni Żochowski (1987)

Aplikace matematiky

The convex optimal control problem for a system described by the parabolic equation is considered. The form of the right derivative of an optimal solution with respect to the parameter is derived. The applications to an air quality control problem are discussed. Numerical result are provided.

Direct design of robustly asymptotically stabilizing hybrid feedback

Rafal Goebel, Andrew R. Teel (2009)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

A direct construction of a stabilizing hybrid feedback that is robust to general measurement error is given for a general nonlinear control system that is asymptotically controllable to a compact set.
