Differential Equations and Dynamical Systems

Robust stability and control for systems that combine continuous-time and discrete-time dynamics. This article is a tutorial on modeling the dynamics of hybrid systems, on the elements of stability theory for hybrid systems, and on the basics of hybrid control. The presentation and selection of material is oriented toward the analysis of asymptotic stability in hybrid systems and the design of stabilizing hybrid controllers. Our emphasis on the robustness of asymptotic stability to data perturbation, external disturbances, and measurement error distinguishes the approach taken here from other approaches to hybrid systems. While we make some connections to alternative approaches, this article does not aspire to be a survey of the hybrid system literature, which is vast and multifaceted.

Interconnection and damping assignment passivity-based control of port-controlled Hamiltonian systems

The technology of hydrodynamic modeling and marine craft motion control systems has progressed greatly in recent years. This timely survey includes the latest tools for analysis and design of advanced guidance, navigation and control systems and presents new material on underwater vehicles and surface vessels. Each section presents numerous case studies and applications, providing a practical understanding of how model-based motion control systems are designed.

This paper presents a review of recently used direct torque and flux control (DTC) techniques for voltage inverter-fed induction and permanent-magnet synchronous motors. A variety of techniques, different in concept, are described as follows: switching-table-based hysteresis DTC, direct self control, constant-switching-frequency DTC with space-vector modulation (DTC-SVM). Also, trends in the DTC-SVM techniques based on neuro-fuzzy logic controllers are presented. Some oscillograms that illustrate properties of the presented techniques are shown.

On global uniform asymptotic stability of nonlinear time-varying systems in cascade

The persistency of excitation property is crucial for the stability analysis of parameter identification algorithms and adaptive control loops. We propose a relaxed definition of persistency of excitation and we use it to establish uniform global asymptotic stability (UGAS) for a large class of nonlinear, time-varying systems. Our relaxed definition is conceptually equivalent to the definition introduced in Loria et al. (1999), but is easier to verify. It is useful for stability analysis of nonlinear systems that arise, for example, in nonlinear adaptive control, stabilization of nonholonomic systems, and tracking control. Our proof of UGAS relies on some integral characterizations of UGAS established in Teel et al. (2000). These characterizations also streamline the proof of UGAS in the presence of (uniform) classical persistency of excitation.
