Optimal control for distributed systems subject to null-controllability. Application to discriminating sentinels

Ousseynou Nakoulima (2007)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We consider a distributed system in which the state q is governed by a parabolic equation and a pair of controls v = (h,k) where h and k play two different roles: the control k is of controllability type while h expresses that the state q does not move too far from a given state. Therefore, it is natural to introduce the control point of view. In fact, there are several ways to state and solve optimal control problems with a pair of controls h and k, in particular the Least Squares method...

Optimal control of linear stochastic evolution equations in Hilbert spaces and uniform observability

Viorica Mariela Ungureanu (2009)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

In this paper we study the existence of the optimal (minimizing) control for a tracking problem, as well as a quadratic cost problem subject to linear stochastic evolution equations with unbounded coefficients in the drift. The backward differential Riccati equation (BDRE) associated with these problems (see [chen], for finite dimensional stochastic equations or [UC], for infinite dimensional equations with bounded coefficients) is in general different from the conventional BDRE (see [1990], [ukl])....

Optimal control processes associated with a class of discontinuous control systems: Applications to sliding mode dynamics

Arturo Enrique Gil García, Vadim Azhmyakov, Michael V. Basin (2014)

Kybernetika

This paper presents a theoretical approach to optimal control problems (OCPs) governed by a class of control systems with discontinuous right-hand sides. A possible application of the framework developed in this paper is constituted by the conventional sliding mode dynamic processes. The general theory of constrained OCPs is used as an analytic background for designing numerically tractable schemes and computational methods for their solutions. The proposed analytic method guarantees consistency...

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...

Optimal decentralized control design with disturbance decoupling

Petros G. Voulgaris (2002)

Kybernetika

In this paper we present an input-output point of view for the problem of closed loop norm minimization of stable plants when a decentralized structure and a disturbance decoupling property are imposed on the controller. We show that this problem is convex and present approaches to its solution in the optimal ℓ 1 sense in the nontrivial case which is when the block off- diagonal terms of the plant have more columns than rows.

Optimal erasures in decision-feedback equalization for the Gaussian noise

Jerzy Kisilewicz, Arkadiusz Grzybowski (2006)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

A new method of optimizing decision feedback parameters for intersymbol interference equalizers is described. The coefficient existing in the decision feedback loop depends on risk qualification of the received decision. We prove that bit error probability can be decreased with this method for any channel with a single interference sample and small Gaussian noise. Experimental results are presented for selected channels. The dependences of optimal feedback parameters on channel interference samples...

Optimal feedback control proportional to the system state can be found for non-causal descriptor systems

Galina Kurina (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

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.

Optimal LQ-feedback control for a class of first-order hyperbolic distributed parameter systems

Ilyasse Aksikas, Joseph J. Winkin, Denis Dochain (2008)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

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...

Optimal multivariable PID regulator

Jiří Mošna, Pavel Pešek (2000)

Kybernetika

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...

Optimal observability of the multi-dimensional wave and Schrödinger equations in quantum ergodic domains

Yannick Privat, Emmanuel Trélat, Enrique Zuazua (2016)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We consider the wave and Schrödinger equations on a bounded open connected subset Ω 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 ω of Ω during a time interval [ 0 , T ] with T > 0 . It is well known that, if the pair ( ω , T ) satisfies the Geometric Control Condition ( ω being an open set), then an observability inequality holds guaranteeing that the total energy of solutions can be...

Optimal Proliferation Rate in a Cell Division Model

P. Michel (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

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...

Optimization and identification of nonlinear uncertain systems

Jong Yeoul Park, Yong Han Kang, Il Hyo Jung (2003)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

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.

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....

Optimization of the shape and the location of the actuators in an internal control problem

Antoine Henrot, Hervé Maillot (2001)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Consideriamo un corpo Ω 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...
