Controllability of a slowly rotating Timoshenko beam

Martin Gugat (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Consider a Timoshenko beam that is clamped to an axis perpendicular to the axis of the beam. We study the problem to move the beam from a given initial state to a position of rest, where the movement is controlled by the angular acceleration of the axis to which the beam is clamped. We show that this problem of controllability is solvable if the time of rotation is long enough and a certain parameter that describes the material of the beam is a rational number that has an even numerator and an...

Controllability of evolution equations and inclusions driven by vector measures

N.U. Ahmed (2004)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

In this paper, we consider the question of controllability of a class of linear and semilinear evolution equations on Hilbert space with measures as controls. We present necessary and sufficient conditions for weak and exact (strong) controllability of a linear system. Using this result we prove that exact controllability of the linear system implies exact controllability of a perturbed semilinear system. Controllability problem for the semilinear system is formulated as a fixed point problem on...

Controllability of invariant control systems at uniform time

Víctor Ayala, José Ayala-Hoffmann, Ivan de Azevedo Tribuzy (2009)

Kybernetika

Let G be a compact and connected semisimple Lie group and Σ an invariant control systems on G . Our aim in this work is to give a new proof of Theorem 1 proved by Jurdjevic and Sussmann in [6]. Precisely, to find a positive time s Σ such that the system turns out controllable at uniform time s Σ . Our proof is different, elementary and the main argument comes directly from the definition of semisimple Lie group. The uniform time is not arbitrary. Finally, if A = t > 0 A ( t , e ) denotes the reachable set from arbitrary...

Controllability of linear impulsive matrix Lyapunov differential systems with delays in the control function

Vijayakumar S. Muni, Raju K. George (2018)

Kybernetika

In this paper, we establish the controllability conditions for a finite-dimensional dynamical control system modelled by a linear impulsive matrix Lyapunov ordinary differential equations having multiple constant time-delays in control for certain classes of admissible control functions. We characterize the controllability property of the system in terms of matrix rank conditions and are easy to verify. The obtained results are applicable for both autonomous (time-invariant) and non-autonomous (time-variant)...

Controllability of nonlinear discrete systems

Jerzy Klamka (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Local constrained controllability problems for nonlinear finite-dimensional discrete 1-D and 2-D control systems with constant coefficients are formulated and discussed. Using some mapping theorems taken from nonlinear functional analysis and linear approximation methods, sufficient conditions for constrained controllability in bounded domains are derived and proved. The paper extends the controllability conditions with unconstrained controls given in the literature to cover both 1-D and 2-D nonlinear...

Controllability of nonlinear impulsive Ito type stochastic systems

Rathinasamy Sakthivel (2009)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

In this article, we consider finite dimensional dynamical control systems described by nonlinear impulsive Ito type stochastic integrodifferential equations. Necessary and sufficient conditions for complete controllability of nonlinear impulsive stochastic systems are formulated and proved under the natural assumption that the corresponding linear system is appropriately controllable. A fixed point approach is employed for achieving the required result.

Controllability of nonlinear PDE’s: Agrachev–Sarychev approach

Armen Shirikyan (2007)

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

This short note is devoted to a discussion of a general approach to controllability of PDE’s introduced by Agrachev and Sarychev in 2005. We use the example of a 1D Burgers equation to illustrate the main ideas. It is proved that the problem in question is controllable in an appropriate sense by a two-dimensional external force. This result is not new and was proved earlier in the papers [AS05, AS07] in a more complicated situation of 2D Navier–Stokes equations.

Controllability of nonlinear stochastic systems with multiple time-varying delays in control

Shanmugasundaram Karthikeyan, Krishnan Balachandran, Murugesan Sathya (2015)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This paper is concerned with the problem of controllability of semi-linear stochastic systems with time varying multiple delays in control in finite dimensional spaces. Sufficient conditions are established for the relative controllability of semilinear stochastic systems by using the Banach fixed point theorem. A numerical example is given to illustrate the application of the theoretical results. Some important comments are also presented on existing results for the stochastic controllability of...
