A Model-Based Fault Detection and Diagnosis Scheme for Distributed Parameter Systems: A Learning Systems Approach

Michael A. Demetriou (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this note, fault detection techniques based on finite dimensional results are extended and applied to a class of infinite dimensional dynamical systems. This special class of systems assumes linear plant dynamics having an abrupt additive perturbation as the fault. This fault is assumed to be linear in the (unknown) constant (and possibly functional) parameters. An observer-based model estimate is proposed which serves to monitor the system's dynamics for unanticipated failures, and its well...

A modified state variable diagram method for determination of positive realizations of linear continuous-time systems with delays

Tadeusz Kaczorek (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

A new modified state variable diagram method is proposed for determination of positive realizations of linear continuoustime systems with delays in state and input vectors. Using the method, it is possible to find a positive realization with reduced numbers of delays for a given transfer matrix. Sufficient conditions for the existence of positive realizations of given proper transfer matrices are established. The proposed method is demonstrated on numerical examples.

A modified van der Pol equation with delay in a description of the heart action

Beata Zduniak, Marek Bodnar, Urszula Foryś (2014)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

In this paper, a modified van der Pol equation is considered as a description of the heart action. This model has a number of interesting properties allowing reconstruction of phenomena observed in physiological experiments as well as in Holter electrocardiographic recordings. Our aim is to study periodic solutions of the modified van der Pol equation and take into consideration the influence of feedback and delay which occur in the normal heart action mode as well as in pathological modes. Usage...

A multi-model approach to Saint-Venant equations: A stability study by LMIs

Valérie Dos Santos Martins, Mickael Rodrigues, Mamadou Diagne (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This paper deals with the stability study of the nonlinear Saint-Venant Partial Differential Equation (PDE). The proposed approach is based on the multi-model concept which takes into account some Linear Time Invariant (LTI) models defined around a set of operating points. This method allows describing the dynamics of this nonlinear system in an infinite dimensional space over a wide operating range. A stability analysis of the nonlinear Saint-Venant PDE is proposed both by using Linear Matrix Inequalities...

A multivariable multiobjective predictive controller

Faten Ben Aicha, Faouzi Bouani, Mekki Ksouri (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Predictive control of MIMO processes is a challenging problem which requires the specification of a large number of tuning parameters (the prediction horizon, the control horizon and the cost weighting factor). In this context, the present paper compares two strategies to design a supervisor of the Multivariable Generalized Predictive Controller (MGPC), based on multiobjective optimization. Thus, the purpose of this work is the automatic adjustment of the MGPC synthesis by simultaneously minimizing...

A necessary and sufficient condition for static output feedback stabilizability of linear discrete-time systems

Danica Rosinová, Vojtech Veselý, Vladimír Kučera (2003)

Kybernetika

Necessary and sufficient conditions for a discrete-time system to be stabilizable via static output feedback are established. The conditions include a Riccati equation. An iterative as well as non-iterative LMI based algorithm with guaranteed cost for the computation of output stabilizing feedback gains is proposed and introduces the novel LMI approach to compute the stabilizing output feedback gain matrix. The results provide the discrete- time counterpart to the results by Kučera and De Souza.

A new approach to generalized chaos synchronization based on the stability of the error system

Zhi Liang Zhu, Shuping Li, Hai Yu (2008)

Kybernetika

With a chaotic system being divided into linear and nonlinear parts, a new approach is presented to realize generalized chaos synchronization by using feedback control and parameter commutation. Based on a linear transformation, the problem of generalized synchronization (GS) is transformed into the stability problem of the synchronous error system, and an existence condition for GS is derived. Furthermore, the performance of GS can be improved according to the configuration of the GS velocity....

A new fuzzy Lyapunov approach to non-quadratic stabilization of Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy models

Ibtissem Abdelmalek, Noureddine Goléa, Mohamed Hadjili (2007)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

In this paper, new non-quadratic stability conditions are derived based on the parallel distributed compensation scheme to stabilize Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems. We use a non-quadratic Lyapunov function as a fuzzy mixture of multiple quadratic Lyapunov functions. The quadratic Lyapunov functions share the same membership functions with the T-S fuzzy model. The stability conditions we propose are less conservative and stabilize also fuzzy systems which do not admit a quadratic stabilization....

A new indirect adaptive pole placer for possibly non-minimum phase MIMO linear systems

Kostas G. Arvanitis, Grigoris Kalogeropoulos, I. K. Kookos (2000)

Kybernetika

The use of generalized sampled-data hold functions, in order to synthesize adaptive pole placers for linear multiple-input, multiple-output systems with unknown parameters, is investigated in this paper, for the first time. Such a control scheme relies on a periodically varying controller, which suitably modulates the sampled outputs of the controlled plant. The proposed control strategy allows us to assign the poles of the sampled closed-loop system arbitrarily in desired locations, and does not...

A new LMI-based robust finite-time sliding mode control strategy for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems

Saleh Mobayen, Fairouz Tchier (2015)

Kybernetika

This paper presents a novel sliding mode controller for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems. Based on Lyapunov stability theorem and linear matrix inequality technique, a sufficient condition is derived to guarantee the global asymptotical stability of the error dynamics and a linear sliding surface is existed depending on state errors. A new reaching control law is designed to satisfy the presence of the sliding mode around the linear surface in the finite time, and its parameters are obtained...
