Observer design for a class of nonlinear discrete-time systems with time-delay

Yali Dong, Jinying Liu, Shengwei Mei (2013)

Kybernetika

The problem of observer design for a class of nonlinear discrete-time systems with time-delay is considered. A new approach of nonlinear observer design is proposed for the class of systems. Based on differential mean value theory, the error dynamic is transformed into linear parameter variable system. By using Lyapunov stability theory and Schur complement lemma, the sufficient conditions expressed in terms of matrix inequalities are obtained to guarantee the observer error converges asymptotically...

On directional change and anti-windup compensation in multivariable control systems

Dariusz Horla (2009)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The paper presents a novel description of the interplay between the windup phenomenon and directional change in controls for multivariable systems (including plants with an uneven number of inputs and outputs), usually omitted in the literature. The paper also proposes a new classification of anti-windup compensators with respect to the method of generating the constrained control signal.

On path following control of nonholonomic mobile manipulators

Alicja Mazur, Dawid Szakiel (2009)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This paper describes the problem of designing control laws for path following robots, including two types of nonholonomic mobile manipulators. Due to a cascade structure of the motion equation, a backstepping procedure is used to achieve motion along a desired path. The control algorithm consists of two simultaneously working controllers: the kinematic controller, solving motion constraints, and the dynamic controller, preserving an appropriate coordination between both subsystems of a mobile manipulator,...

On the controllability of the Laplace equation observed on an interior curve.

A. Osses, J.-P. Puel (1998)

Revista Matemática Complutense

The boundary approximate controllability of the Laplace equation observed on an interior curve is studied in this paper. First we consider the Laplace equation with a bounded potential. The Lp (1 < p < ∞) approximate controllability is established and controls of Lp-minimal norm are built by duality. At this point, a general result which clarifies the relationship between this duality approach and the classical optimal control theory is given. The results are extended to the Lp (1≤...

On the development of SCILAB compatible software for the analysis and control of repetitive processes

Łukasz H. Ładowski, Błażej Cichy, Krzysztof Gałkowski, Eric Rogers (2008)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

In this paper further results on the development of a S CILAB compatible software package for the analysis and control of repetitive processes is described. The core of the package consists of a simulation tool which enables the user to inspect the response of a given example to an input, design a control law for stability and/or performance, and also simulate the response of a controlled process to a specified reference signal.

On-line wavelet estimation of Hammerstein system nonlinearity

Przemysław Śliwiński (2010)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

A new algorithm for nonparametric wavelet estimation of Hammerstein system nonlinearity is proposed. The algorithm works in the on-line regime (viz., past measurements are not available) and offers a convenient uniform routine for nonlinearity estimation at an arbitrary point and at any moment of the identification process. The pointwise convergence of the estimate to locally bounded nonlinearities and the rate of this convergence are both established.

Optimal approximation simulation and analog realization of the fundamental fractional order transfer function

Abdelbaki Djouambi, Abdelfatah Charef, Alina Voda besancon (2007)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This paper provides an optimal approximation of the fundamental linear fractional order transfer function using a distribution of the relaxation time function. Simple methods, useful in systems and control theories, which can be used to approximate the irrational transfer function of a class of fractional systems fora given frequency band by a rational function are presented. The optimal parameters of the approximated model are obtained by minimizing simultaneously the gain and the phase error between...

Optimal control solution for Pennes' equation using strongly continuous semigroup

Alaeddin Malek, Ghasem Abbasi (2014)

Kybernetika

A distributed optimal control problem on and inside a homogeneous skin tissue is solved subject to Pennes' equation with Dirichlet boundary condition at one end and Rubin condition at the other end. The point heating power induced by conducting heating probe inserted at the tumour site as an unknown control function at specific depth inside biological body is preassigned. Corresponding pseudo-port Hamiltonian system is proposed. Moreover, it is proved that bioheat transfer equation forms a contraction...

Optimization and pole assignment in control system design

Eric Chu (2001)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Some elementary optimization techniques, together with some not so well-known robustness measures and condition numbers, will be utilized in pole assignment. In particular, ''Method 0'' by Kautsky et al. (1985) for optimal selection of vectors is shown to be convergent to a local minimum, with respect to the condition number . This contrasts with the misconception by Kautsky et al. that the method diverges, or the recent discovery by Yang and Tits (1995) that the method converges to stationary points....
