Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear observer design using Lyapunov's auxiliary theorem
TL;DR: In this article, a nonlinear observer design problem is formulated via a system of singular first-order linear PDEs, and a rather general set of necessary and sufficient conditions for solvability is derived by using Lyapunov's auxiliary theorem.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear state feedback synthesis by global input/output linearization
Costas Kravaris,Chang-Bock Chung +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the design of feedback controllers for trajectory tracking in single-input/single-output nonlinear systems is studied, and a nonlinear transformation of the form v = k (x) + λ(x) u that transforms this nonlinear input/output system into a linear system is first constructed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of Parameters in Distributed Parameter Systems by Regularization
Costas Kravaris,John H. Seinfeld +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the concept of regularization is used for the identification of spatially varying parameters in distributed parameter systems from noisy data, and the performance of the regularization identification method is evaluated by numerical experiments on the detection of a spatial varying diffusivity in the diffusion equation.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Nonlinear observer design using Lyapunov's auxiliary theorem
TL;DR: In this paper, an approach to the nonlinear observer design problem is proposed based on the early ideas that influenced the development of the linear Luenberger observer theory, and the proposed approach develops a nonlinear analogue.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geometric methods for nonlinear process control. 1. Background
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the mathematical and systems theory background, including linear results, tools from differential geometry, nonlinear inversion, and zero dynamics, and the concept of feedback linearization of nonlinear systems.
