Optimal feedback control depending only on the system state is constructed for a control problem by the non-causal descriptor system for which optimal feedback control depending on state derivatives was considered in the paper (Meuller, 1998). To this end, a non-symmetric solution of the algebraic operator Riccati equation is used.
The Linear-Quadratic (LQ) optimal control problem is studied for a class of first-order hyperbolic partial differential equation models by using a nonlinear infinite-dimensional (distributed parameter) Hilbert state-space description. First the dynamical properties of the linearized model around some equilibrium profile are studied. Next the LQ-feedback operator is computed by using the corresponding operator Riccati algebraic equation whose solution is obtained via a related matrix Riccati differential...
A continuous version of optimal LQG design under presence of Wiener disturbances is solved for MIMO controlled plant. Traditional design tools fail to solve this problem due to unstability of the augmented plant. A class of all optimality criteria, which guarantee existence of an asymptotical solution, is defined using a plant deviation model. This class is utilized in design of an optimal state and an error feedback regulator which is presented here. The resultant optimal error regulator is interpreted...
We consider the wave and Schrödinger equations on a bounded open connected subset of a Riemannian manifold, with Dirichlet, Neumann or Robin boundary conditions whenever its boundary is nonempty. We observe the restriction of the solutions to a measurable subset of during a time interval with . It is well known that, if the pair satisfies the Geometric Control Condition ( being an open set), then an observability inequality holds guaranteeing that the total energy of solutions can be...
We consider a size structured cell population model where a mother cell gives birth to two daughter cells. We know that the asymptotic behavior of the density of cells is given by the solution to an eigenproblem. The eigenvector gives the asymptotic shape and the eigenvalue gives the exponential growth rate and so the Maltusian parameter. The Maltusian parameter depends on the division rule for the mother cell, i.e., symmetric (the two daughter cells have the same size) or asymmetric. We use a...
In this paper we consider the optimal control of both operators and parameters for uncertain systems. For the optimal control and identification problem, we show existence of an optimal solution and present necessary conditions of optimality.
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....
Consideriamo un corpo sottomesso ad una forza esterna data e del quale vogliamo controllare lo spostamento. Cerchiamo un rinforzo per minimizzare un funzionale che dipende dallo spostamento del corpo. L'insieme delle configurazioni ammissibili è un insieme di funzioni caratteristiche di sottodomini (un rinforzo ammissibile è un sottodominio con una rigidezza uguale ad uno) di volume prescritto. In tal caso, si ha bisogno di una versione rilassata del problema di ottimizzazione e si cerca una densità...
In this paper, a novel two-level framework was proposed and applied to solve the output average consensus problem over heterogeneous multi-agent systems. This approach is mainly based on the recent technique of system abstraction. For given multi-agent systems, we first constructed their abstractions as the upper level and solved their average consensus problem by leveraging well-known results for single integrators. Then the control protocols for physical agents in the lower level were synthesized...
In this paper, we study dynamical output feedback control for networked control systems (NCSs) based on two channel event-triggered mechanisms, which are proposed on both sides of the sensor and the controller. The output feedback controller is constructed by taking random network-induced delays into consideration without data buffer units. The controlled plant and the output feedback controller are updated immediately by the sampled input and the sampled output, respectively. By using the approaches...
The paper deals with the construction of the output feedback controllers for the systems that are transformable into a simpler form via coordinate change and static state feedback and, at the same time, via (possibly different) coordinate change and output injection. Illustrative examples are provided to stress the major obstacles in applying the above scheme, especially as far as its global aspects are concerned. The corresponding results are then applied to the problem of the real-time control...
This paper is concerned with the problem of global state regulation by output feedback for large-scale uncertain nonlinear systems with time delays in the states and inputs. The systems are assumed to be bounded by a more general form than a class of feedforward systems satisfying a linear growth condition in the unmeasurable states multiplying by unknown growth rates and continuous functions of the inputs or delayed inputs. Using the dynamic gain scaling technique and choosing the appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii...
The stabilization with time delay in observation or control represents difficult mathematical challenges in the control of distributed parameter systems. It is well-known that the stability of closed-loop system achieved by some stabilizing output feedback laws may be destroyed by whatever small time delay there exists in observation. In this paper, we are concerned with a particularly interesting case: Boundary output feedback stabilization of a one-dimensional wave equation system for which the...
