Convex Analysisの二,三の進展について

We introduce flat systems, which are equivalent to linear ones via a special type of feedback called endogenous. Their physical properties are subsumed by a linearizing output and they might be regarded as providing another nonlinear extension of Kalman's controllability. The distance to flatness is measured by a non-negative integer, the defect. We utilize differential algebra where flatness- and defect are best defined without distinguishing between input, state, output and other variables. Many realistic classes of examples are flat. We treat two popular ones: the crane and the car with n trailers, the motion planning of which is obtained via elementary properties of plane curves. The three non-flat examples, the simple, double and variable length pendulums, are borrowed from non-linear physics. A high frequency control strategy is proposed such that the averaged systems become flat.

Tools and Algorithms for the Construction and Analysis of Systems. Proc. TACAS 2009

The problem of controlling a fixed nonlinear plant in order to have its output track (or reject) a family of reference (or disturbance) signal produced by some external generator is discussed. It is shown that, under standard assumptions, this problem is solvable if and only if a certain nonlinear partial differential equation is solvable. Once a solution of this equation is available, a feedback law which solves the problem can easily be constructed. The theory developed incorporates previously published results established for linear systems. >

Output regulation of nonlinear systems

Model Predictive Control (MPC), the dominant advanced control approach in industry over the past twenty-five years, is presented comprehensively in this unique book. With a simple, unified approach, and with attention to real-time implementation, it covers predictive control theory including the stability, feasibility, and robustness of MPC controllers. The theory of explicit MPC, where the nonlinear optimal feedback controller can be calculated efficiently, is presented in the context of linear systems with linear constraints, switched linear systems, and, more generally, linear hybrid systems. Drawing upon years of practical experience and using numerous examples and illustrative applications, the authors discuss the techniques required to design predictive control laws, including algorithms for polyhedral manipulations, mathematical and multiparametric programming and how to validate the theoretical properties and to implement predictive control policies. The most important algorithms feature in an accompanying free online MATLAB toolbox, which allows easy access to sample solutions. Predictive Control for Linear and Hybrid Systems is an ideal reference for graduate, postgraduate and advanced control practitioners interested in theory and/or implementation aspects of predictive control.

Predictive Control for Linear and Hybrid Systems

Symbolic models for nonlinear time-delay systems using approximate bisimulations

New connection constraints for the power network (grid codes) require more flexible and reliable systems, with robust solutions to cope with uncertainties and intermittence from renewable energy sources (renewables), such as photovoltaic (PV) arrays. The interconnection of such renewables with storage systems through a direct current (DC) MicroGrid can fulfill these requirements. A “Plug and Play” approach based on the “System of Systems” philosophy using distributed control methodologies is developed in this paper. This approach allows to interconnect a number of elements to a DC MicroGrid as power sources, such as PV arrays, storage systems in different time scales, such as batteries and supercapacitors, and loads, such as electric vehicles and the main ac grid. The proposed scheme can easily be scalable to a much larger number of elements.

Nonlinear Control of a DC MicroGrid for the Integration of Photovoltaic Panels

Time-delay systems are an important class of dynamical systems which provide a solid mathematical framework to deal with many application domains of interest ranging from biology, chemical, electrical, and mechanical engineering, to economics. However, the inherent complexity of such systems poses serious difficulties to control design, when control objectives depart from the standard ones investigated in the current literature, e.g. stabilization, regulation, and etc. In this paper we propose one approach to control design, which is based on the construction of symbolic models, where each symbolic state and each symbolic label correspond to an aggregate of continuous states and to an aggregate of input signals in the original system. The use of symbolic models offers a systematic methodology for control design in which constraints coming from software and hardware, interacting with the physical world, can be integrated. The main contribution of this paper is in showing that incrementally input-to-state stable time-delay systems do admit symbolic models that are approximately bisimilar to the original system, with a precision that can be rendered as small as desired. An algorithm is also presented which computes the proposed symbolic models. When the state and input spaces of time-delay systems are bounded, which is the case in many realistic situations, the proposed algorithm is shown to terminate in a finite number of steps.

Power management for a DC MicroGrid integrating renewables and storages

It is well known that, for linear systems, the model matching problem is equivalent to a disturbance decoupling problem with disturbance measurement. The solution of both problems can be expressed in terms of properties of invariant subspaces of the system and of the model.In this paper, it is shown that, for nonlinear systems, under appropriate hypotheses, analogous results can be obtained. The solvability of a model matching problem can be expressed in terms of properties of suitable invariant distributions. It is also shown that, as for linear systems, those properties are related to the so-called “structures at infinity” of the system and of the model.
