Shape optimization of piezoelectric sensors or actuators for the control of plates

Emmanuel Degryse, Stéphane Mottelet (2005)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

This paper deals with a new method to control flexible structures by designing non-collocated sensors and actuators satisfying a pseudo-collocation criterion in the low-frequency domain. This technique is applied to a simply supported plate with a point force actuator and a piezoelectric sensor, for which we give some theoretical and numerical results. We also compute low-order controllers which stabilize pseudo-collocated systems and the closed-loop behavior show that this approach is very promising....

Sharp regularity of the second time derivative w_tt of solutions to Kirchhoff equations with clamped Boundary Conditions

Irena Lasiecka, Roberto Triggiani (2001)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

We consider mixed problems for Kirchhoff elastic and thermoelastic systems, subject to boundary control in the clamped Boundary Conditions B.C. (“clamped control”). If w denotes elastic displacement and θ temperature, we establish optimal regularity of {w, w_t, w_tt} in the elastic case, and of {w, w_t, w_tt, θ} in the thermoelastic case. Our results complement those presented in (Lagnese and Lions, 1988), where sharp (optimal) trace regularity results are obtained for the corresponding boundary...

Similarity transformation of matrices to one common canonical form and its applications to 2D linear systems

Tadeusz Kaczorek (2010)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The notion of a common canonical form for a sequence of square matrices is introduced. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a similarity transformation reducing the sequence of matrices to the common canonical form are established. It is shown that (i) using a suitable state vector linear transformation it is possible to decompose a linear 2D system into two linear 2D subsystems such that the dynamics of the second subsystem are independent of those of the first one, (ii) the...

Simplification of the generalized state equations

Tanel Mullari, Ülle Kotta (2006)

Kybernetika

The paper studies the problem of lowering the orders of input derivatives in nonlinear generalized state equations via generalized coordinate transformation. An alternative, computation-oriented proof is presented for the theorem, originally proved by Delaleau and Respondek, giving necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of such a transformation, in terms of commutativity of certain vector fields. Moreover, the dual conditions in terms of 1-forms have been derived, allowing to calculate...

Simultaneous controllability in sharp time for two elastic strings

Sergei Avdonin, Marius Tucsnak (2001)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We study the simultaneously reachable subspace for two strings controlled from a common endpoint. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for simultaneous spectral and approximate controllability. Moreover we prove the lack of simultaneous exact controllability and we study the space of simultaneously reachable states as a function of the position of the joint. For each type of controllability result we give the sharp controllability time.

Simultaneous Localization And Mapping: A feature-based probabilistic approach

Piotr Skrzypczyński (2009)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This article provides an introduction to Simultaneous Localization And Mapping (SLAM), with the focus on probabilistic SLAM utilizing a feature-based description of the environment. A probabilistic formulation of the SLAM problem is introduced, and a solution based on the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF-SLAM) is shown. Important issues of convergence, consistency, observability, data association and scaling in EKF-SLAM are discussed from both theoretical and practical points of view. Major extensions...

Simultaneous output-feedback stabilization for continuous systems in Banach spaces

Fouad M. AL-Sunni, Frank L. Lewis (1998)

Kybernetika

A design technique for the stabilization of M linear systems by one constant output-feedback controller is developed. The design equations are functions of the state and the control weighting matrices. An example of the stabilization of an aircraft at different operating points is given.

Simultaneous state and parameter estimation based actuator fault detection and diagnosis for an unmanned helicopter

Chong Wu, Juntong Qi, Dalei Song, Xin Qi, Jianda Han (2015)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Simultaneous state and parameter estimation based actuator fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) for single-rotor unmanned helicopters (UHs) is investigated in this paper. A literature review of actuator FDD for UHs is given firstly. Based on actuator healthy coefficients (AHCs), which are introduced to represent actuator faults, a combined dynamic model is established with the augmented state containing both the flight state and AHCs. Then the actuator fault detection and diagnosis problem is transformed...

Single input controllability of a simplified fluid-structure interaction model

Yuning Liu, Takéo Takahashi, Marius Tucsnak (2013)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this paper we study a controllability problem for a simplified one dimensional model for the motion of a rigid body in a viscous fluid. The control variable is the velocity of the fluid at one end. One of the novelties brought in with respect to the existing literature consists in the fact that we use a single scalar control. Moreover, we introduce a new methodology, which can be used for other nonlinear parabolic systems, independently of the techniques previously used for the linearized problem....

Sliding mode control in the presence of delay

Jean-Pierre Richard, Fréderic Gouaisbaut, Wilfrid Perruquetti (2001)

Kybernetika

This paper provides an overview of recent results for relay-delay systems. In a first section, simple examples illustrate the problems induced by delays in the synthesis of sliding mode controllers. Then, a brief overview of the existing results shows the present advances and limits in this domain. The last parts of the paper are devoted to new results: first, for systems with state delay, then for systems with input delay.
