System dynamics identification by means of adjustable models
System identification from multiple-trial data corrupted by non-repeating periodic disturbances
Iterative learning and repetitive control aim to eliminate the effect of unwanted disturbances over repeated trials or cycles. The disturbance-free system model, if known, can be used in a model-based iterative learning or repetitive control system to eliminate the unwanted disturbances. In the case of periodic disturbances, although the unknown disturbance frequencies may be the same from trial to trial, the disturbance amplitudes, phases, and biases do not necessarily repeat. Furthermore, the...

Systematic fault tolerant control based on adaptive Thau observer estimation for quadrotor UAVs
A systematic fault tolerant control (FTC) scheme based on fault estimation for a quadrotor actuator, which integrates normal control, active and passive FTC and fault parking is proposed in this paper. Firstly, an adaptive Thau observer (ATO) is presented to estimate the quadrotor rotor fault magnitudes, and then faults with different magnitudes and time-varying natures are rated into corresponding fault severity levels based on the pre-defined fault-tolerant boundaries. Secondly, a systematic FTC...
Systems with associative dynamics
This paper introduces a class of nonlinear discrete-time dynamic models that generalize familiar linear model structures; our motivation is to explore the extent to which known results for the linear case do or do not extend to this nonlinear class. The results presented here are based on a complete characterization of the solution of the associative functional equation due to J. Aczel, leading to a class of invertible binary operators that includes addition, multiplication, and infinitely many...
Systems with hysteresis in the feedback loop : existence, regularity and asymptotic behaviour of solutions
An existence and regularity theorem is proved for integral equations of convolution type which contain hysteresis nonlinearities. On the basis of this result, frequency-domain stability criteria are derived for feedback systems with a linear infinite-dimensional system in the forward path and a hysteresis nonlinearity in the feedback path. These stability criteria are reminiscent of the classical circle criterion which applies to static sector-bounded nonlinearities. The class of hysteresis operators...

Szegő's first limit theorem in terms of a realization of a continuous-time time-varying systems
It is shown that the limit in an abstract version of Szegő's limit theorem can be expressed in terms of the antistable dynamics of the system. When the system dynamics are regular, it is shown that the limit equals the difference between the antistable Lyapunov exponents of the system and those of its inverse. In the general case, the elements of the dichotomy spectrum give lower and upper bounds.

Test signal design for failure detection: A linear programming approach
A new methodology for the design of filters that permits failure detection and isolation of dynamic systems is presented. Assuming that the normal and the faulty behavior of a process can be modeled by two linear systems subject to inequality bounded perturbations, a method for the on-line implementation of a test signal, guaranteeing failure detection, is proposed. To improve the fault detectability of the dynamic process, appropriate test signals are injected into the system. All the computations...

The algebraic structure of delay-differential systems: a behavioral perspective
This paper presents a survey on the recent contributions to linear time- invariant delay-differential systems in the behavioral approach. In this survey both systems with commensurate and with noncommensurate delays will be considered. The emphasis lies on the investigation of the relationship between various systems descriptions. While this can be understood in a completely algebraic setting for systems with commensurate delays, this is not the case for systems with noncommensurate delays. In the...
The anti-disturbance property of a closed-loop system of 1-d wave equation with boundary control matched disturbance
We study the anti-disturbance problem of a 1-d wave equation with boundary control matched disturbance. In earlier literature, the authors always designed the controller such as the sliding mode control and the active disturbance rejection control to stabilize the system. However, most of the corresponding closed-loop systems are boundedly stable. In this paper we show that the linear feedback control also has a property of anti-disturbance, even if the disturbance includes some information of the...

The asymptotical stability of a dynamic system uppercasewith structural damping
A dynamic system with structural damping described by partial differential equations is investigated. The system is first converted to an abstract evolution equation in an appropriate Hilbert space, and the spectral and semigroup properties of the system operator are discussed. Finally, the well-posedness and the asymptotical stability of the system are obtained by means of a semigroup of linear operators.
The balayage method: boundary control of a thermo-elastic plate
We discuss the null boundary controllability of a linear thermo-elastic plate. The method employs a smoothing property of the system of PDEs which allows the boundary controls to be calculated directly by solving two Cauchy problems.

The choice of the forms of Lyapunov functions for a positive 2D Roesser model
The appropriate choice of the forms of Lyapunov functions for a positive 2D Roesser model is addressed. It is shown that for the positive 2D Roesser model: (i) a linear form of the state vector can be chosen as a Lyapunov function, (ii) there exists a strictly positive diagonal matrix P such that the matrix A^{T}PA-P is negative definite. The theoretical deliberations will be illustrated by numerical examples.
