Flatness and Monge parameterization of two-input systems, control-affine with 4 states or general with 3 states

David Avanessoff, Jean-Baptiste Pomet (2007)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

This paper studies Monge parameterization, or differential flatness, of control-affine systems with four states and two controls. Some of them are known to be flat, and this implies admitting a Monge parameterization. Focusing on systems outside this class, we describe the only possible structure of such a parameterization for these systems, and give a lower bound on the order of this parameterization, if it exists. This lower-bound is good enough to recover the known results about “(x,u)-flatness”...

Flow control in connection-oriented networks: a time-varying sampling period system case study

Przemysław Ignaciuk, Andrzej Bartoszewicz (2008)

Kybernetika

In this paper congestion control problem in connection-oriented communication network with multiple data sources is addressed. In the considered network the feedback necessary for the flow regulation is provided by means of management units, which are sent by each source once every M data packets. The management units, carrying the information about the current network state, return to their origin round trip time RTT after they were sent. Since the source rate is adjusted only at the instant of...

Fopid Controller Design for Robust Performance Using Particle Swarm Optimization

Zamani, Majid, Karimi-Ghartemani, Masoud, Sadati, Nasser (2007)

Fractional Calculus and Applied Analysis

Mathematics Subject Classification: 26A33; 93C15, 93C55, 93B36, 93B35, 93B51; 03B42; 70Q05; 49N05This paper proposes a novel method to design an H∞ -optimal fractional order PID (FOPID) controller with ability to control the transient, steady-state response and stability margins characteristics. The method uses particle swarm optimization algorithm and operates based on minimizing a general cost function. Minimization of the cost function is carried out subject to the H∞ -norm; this norm is also...

Forecasting return products in an integrated forward/reverse supply chain utilizing an ANFIS

D. Thresh Kumar, Hamed Soleimani, Govindan Kannan (2014)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Interests in Closed-Loop Supply Chain (CLSC) issues are growing day by day within the academia, companies, and customers. Many papers discuss profitability or cost reduction impacts of remanufacturing, but a very important point is almost missing. Indeed, there is no guarantee about the amounts of return products even if we know a lot about demands of first products. This uncertainty is due to reasons such as companies' capabilities in collecting End-of-Life (EOL) products, customers' interests...

Forward invariant sets, homogeneity and small-time local controllability

Mikhail Krastanov (1995)

Banach Center Publications

The property of forward invariance of a subset of R n with respect to a differential inclusion is characterized by using the notion of a perpendicular to a set. The obtained results are applied for investigating the dependence of the small-time local controllability of a homogeneous control system on parameters.

Further results on robust fuzzy dynamic systems with LMI 𝓓-stability constraints

Wudhichai Assawinchaichote (2014)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This paper examines the problem of designing a robust fuzzy controller with -stability constraints for a class of nonlinear dynamic systems which is described by a Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy model. Fuzzy modelling is a multi-model approach in which simple sub-models are combined to determine the global behavior of the system. Based on a linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, we develop a robust fuzzy controller that guarantees (i) the ₂-gain of the mapping from the exogenous input noise to the...

Further results on sliding manifold design and observation for a heat equation

Enrique Barbieri, Sergey Drakunov, J. Fernando Figueroa (2000)

Kybernetika

This article presents new extensions regarding a nonlinear control design framework that is suitable for a class of distributed parameter systems with uncertainties (DPS). The control objective is first formulated as a function of the distributed system state. Then, a control is sought such that the set in the state space where this relation is true forms an integral manifold reachable in finite time. The manifold is called a Sliding Manifold. The Sliding Mode controller implements a theoretically...

Fuzzy feedback linearizing controller and its equivalence with the fuzzy nonlinear internal model control structure

Reda Boukezzoula, Sylvie Galichet, Laurent Foulloy (2007)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This paper examines the inverse control problem of nonlinear systems with stable dynamics using a fuzzy modeling approach. Indeed, based on the ability of fuzzy systems to approximate any nonlinear mapping, the nonlinear system is represented by a Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy system, which is then inverted for designing a fuzzy controller. As an application of the proposed inverse control methodology, two popular control structures, namely, feedback linearization and Nonlinear Internal Model Control...
