In this paper, a standard predictive control problem (SPCP) is formulated, which consists of one extended process description with a feedback uncertainty block. The most important finite horizon predictive control problems can be seen as special realizations of this SPCP. The SPCP and its solution are given in a state-space form. The objective of the controller is a nominal performance subject to...
With a recently renewed interest in the continuous-time approach to control system design the continuous-time generalised predictive control (CGPC) is also worth considering. The main objective of this presentation is the development of an analytical perspective that results in explicit design procedures for stable control of both minimum-phase and non-minimum-phase SISO systems. The basic project...
A new class of multi-dimensional discrete systems with varying structureis introduced. The notions of total solvability, p_t-boundedness, p_t-stability and asymptotic stability are defined. For studying properties of the solutions for the considered systems a curvilinear composition of mappings along discrete curves is used. Total solvability conditions similar to the Frobenius ones are obtained....
Marchuk's model of an immune reaction is a system of differential equations with a time delay. The aim of this paper is to study the behaviour of solutions to Marchuk's model depending upon the delay of immune reaction and the history of an illness. We study Marchuk's model without delays, with aconstant delay and with an infinite delay. A continuous dependence on thedelay is considered. Bifurcation...
This paper studies the dynamics of a chemostat model with n populations competing for one nutrient which can be recycled due to decomposition of dead biomass. Several kinds of results about local and global stability of non-negative equilibria, uniform persistence and control of populations are obtained.
This paper focuses on the stability problem for uncertain linear systems with time-varying delays. Based on a discretized Lyapunov functional approach, delay-dependent criteria that are formulated in terms of linear matrix inequalities are proposed to guarantee asymptotic stability for such systems. Numerical examples are also included to show the effectiveness of the method.
This paper deals with the stability problem for a class of linear neutral delay-differential systems. The time delay is assumed constant and known. Delay-dependent criteria are derived. The criteria are given in the form of linear matrix inequalities which are easy to use when checking the stability of the systems considered. Numerical examples indicate significant improvements over some existing...
A novel approach to designing stable fuzzy controllers with perception-based information using fuzzy-arithmetic-based Lyapunov synthesis in the frame of computing with words (CW) is presented. It is shown that a set of conventional fuzzy control rules can be derived from the perception-based information using the standard-fuzzy-arithmetic-based Lyapunov synthesis approach. On the other hand, a singleton...
In the case of linear dynamics, repetitive processes are a distinct class of 2D linear systems with uses in areas ranging from long-wall coal cutting and metal rolling operations to iterative learning control schemes. The main feature which makes them distinct from other classes of 2D linear systems is that information propagation in one of the two independent directions only occurs over a finite...
In iterative learning control (ILC) and in repetitive control (RC) one is interested in convergence to zero tracking error as the repetitions of the command or the periods in the command progress. A condition based on steady state frequency response modeling is often used, but it does not represent the true stability boundary for convergence. In this paper we show how this useful condition differs...
The aim of this paper is to present some approaches to tumour growth modelling using the logistic equation. As the first approach the well-known ordinary differential equation is used to model the EAT in mice. For the same kind of tumour, a logistic equation with time delay is also used. As the second approach, a logistic equation with diffusion is proposed. In this case a delay argument in the reaction...
In this paper an infinite horizon predictive control algorithm, for which closed loop stability is guaranteed, is developed in the framework of multivariable linear input-output models. The original infinite dimensional optimisation problem is transformed into a finite dimensional one with a penalty term. In the unconstrained case the stabilising control law, using a numerically reliable SVD decomposition,...
This paper concerns the issue of robust asymptotic stabilization for uncertain time-delay systems with saturating actuators. Delay-dependent criteria for robust stabilization via linear memoryless state feedback have been obtained. The resulting upper bound on the delay time is given in terms of the solution to a Riccati equation subject to model transformation. Finally, examples are presented to...
In this paper we introduce a new modeling paradigm for developing a decision process representation called the Colored Decision Process Petri Net (CDPPN). It extends the Colored Petri Net (CPN) theoretic approach including Markov decision processes. CPNs are used for process representation taking advantage of the formal semantic and the graphical display. A Markov decision process is utilized as a...
This paper presents direct model reference adaptive control for a class of nonlinear systems with unknown nonlinearities. The model following conditions are assured by using adaptive neural networks as the nonlinear state feedback controller. Both full state information and observer-based schemes are investigated. All the signals in the closed loop are guaranteed to be bounded and the system state...
In this paper we introduce a new modeling paradigm for shortest path games representation with Petri nets. Whereas previous works have restricted attention to tracking the net using Bellman’s equation as a utility function, this work uses a Lyapunov-like function. In this sense, we change the traditional cost function by a trajectory-tracking function which is also an optimal cost-to-target function...
This paper deals with a Fault Tolerant Control (FTC) strategy for polytopic Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) systems. The main contribution consists in the design of a Static Output Feedback (SOF) dedicated to such systems in the presence of multiple actuator faults/failures. The controllers are synthesized through Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs) in both faultfree and faulty cases in order to preserve...
Dual-mode fuzzy dynamic matrix control (fuzzy DMC-FDMC) algorithms with guaranteed nominal stability for constrained nonlinear plants are presented. The algorithms join the advantages of fuzzy Takagi-Sugeno modeling and the predictive dual-mode approach in a computationally efficient version. Thus, they can bring an improvement in control quality compared with predictive controllers based on linear...
In the paper the problem of practical stability of linear positive discrete-time systems of fractional order is addressed. New simple necessary and sufficient conditions for practical stability and for practical stability independent of the length of practical implementation are established. It is shown that practical stability of the system is equivalent to asymptotic stability of the corresponding...
In this paper, a unified nonlinear modeling and control scheme is presented. A self-structuring Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model is used to approximate the unknown nonlinear plant based on I/O data collected on-line. Both the structure and the parameters of the T-S fuzzy model are updated by an on-line clustering method and a recursive least squares estimation (RLSE) algorithm. The rules of the fuzzy...
