From the Publisher:
A comprehensive treatment of model-based fuzzy control systems
This volume offers full coverage of the systematic framework for the stability and design of nonlinear fuzzy control systems. Building on the Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model, authors Tanaka and Wang address a number of important issues in fuzzy control systems, including stability analysis, systematic design procedures, incorporation of performance specifications, numerical implementations, and practical applications.
Issues that have not been fully treated in existing texts, such as stability analysis, systematic design, and performance analysis, are crucial to the validity and applicability of fuzzy control methodology. Fuzzy Control Systems Design and Analysis addresses these issues in the framework of parallel distributed compensation, a controller structure devised in accordance with the fuzzy model.
This balanced treatment features an overview of fuzzy control, modeling, and stability analysis, as well as a section on the use of linear matrix inequalities (LMI) as an approach to fuzzy design and control. It also covers advanced topics in model-based fuzzy control systems, including modeling and control of chaotic systems. Later sections offer practical examples in the form of detailed theoretical and experimental studies of fuzzy control in robotic systems and a discussion of future directions in the field.
Fuzzy Control Systems Design and Analysis offers an advanced treatment of fuzzy control that makes a useful reference for researchers and a reliable text for advanced graduate students in the field.

Stabilization of an unstable steady state in a Mackey-Glass system

We present a demand-controlled method for desynchronization of globally coupled oscillatory networks utilizing a configuration with an observed and stimulated subsystem. The stimulated subsystem is subjected to a proportional-integro-differential (PID) feedback derived from the mean field of the observed subsystem. Our method enables to restore desynchronized states in both subsystems in a robust way. We develop an analytical theory for the Kuramoto model and analytically derive a threshold of the stimulation parameters for the desynchronization transition in ensembles of phase and van der Pol oscillators. We also numerically demonstrate the efficacy of the approach for ensembles of globally coupled Landau-Stuart and relaxation van der Pol oscillators. Our approach is particularly important for applications to physical and biological systems which do not allow for a simultaneous registration and stimulation of the whole network, as in the case of electrical brain stimulation.

Controlling synchrony in oscillatory networks with a separate stimulation-registration setup

A method for estimating conditional Lyapunov exponents from time series of two unidirectionally coupled chaotic systems is developed. It uses two scalar data sets, one taken from the driving and the other from the response system, and enables one to detect a generalized synchronization in an experiment without recourse to an auxiliary response system. The method is illustrated on coupled maps as well as coupled chaotic flow models.

Conditional Lyapunov exponents from time series

A simple adaptive controller based on a low-pass filter to stabilize unstable steady states of dynamical systems is considered. The controller is reference-free; it does not require knowledge of the location of the fixed point in the phase space. A topological limitation similar to that of the delayed feedback controller is discussed. We show that the saddle-type steady states cannot be stabilized by using the conventional low-pass filter. The limitation can be overcome by using an unstable low-pass filter. The use of the controller is demonstrated for several physical models, including the pendulum driven by a constant torque, the Lorenz system, and an electrochemical oscillator. Linear and nonlinear analyses of the models are performed and the problem of the basins of attraction of the stabilized steady states is discussed. The robustness of the controller is demonstrated in experiments and numerical simulations with an electrochemical oscillator, the dissolution of nickel in sulfuric acid; a comparison of the effect of using direct and indirect variables in the control is made. With the use of the controller, all unstable phase-space objects are successfully reconstructed experimentally.

Adaptive control of unknown unstable steady states of dynamical systems.

Time-delayed feedback control is an efficient method for stabilizing unstable periodic orbits of chaotic systems. If the equations governing the system dynamics are known, the success of the method can be predicted by a linear stability analysis of the desired orbit. Unfortunately, the usual procedures for evaluating the Floquet exponents of such systems are rather intricate. We show that the main stability properties of the system controlled by time-delayed feedback can be simply derived from a leading Floquet exponent defining the system behavior under proportional feedback control. Optimal parameters of the delayed feedback controller can be evaluated without an explicit integration of delay-differential equations. The method is valid for low-dimensional systems whose unstable periodic orbits are originated from a period doubling bifurcation and is demonstrated for the Rossler system and the Duffing oscillator.
