TL;DR: This paper develops a methodology for the case where the uncontrolled boundary condition has anti-damping, which makes the real parts of all the eigenvalues of the uncontrolled system positive and arbitrarily high, i.e., the plant is “anti-stable” (exponentially stable in negative time).

TL;DR: This work considers a cascade of a diffusion–convection PDE with an ODE, where the convection direction is “away” from the ODE and relies on the diffusion process to propagate the control signal through the PDE towards the Ode, to stabilize the ODR.
Abstract: We extend several recent results on full-state feedback stabilization and state estimation of PDE–ODE cascades, where the PDEs are either of heat type or of wave type, from the previously considered cases where the interconnections are of Dirichlet type, to interconnections of Neumann type. The Neumann type interconnections constrain the PDE state to be subject to a Dirichlet boundary condition at the PDE–ODE interface, and employ the boundary value of the first spatial derivative of the PDE state to be the input to the ODE. In addition to considering heat-ODE and wave-ODE cascades, we also consider a cascade of a diffusion–convection PDE with an ODE, where the convection direction is “away” from the ODE. We refer to this case as a PDE–ODE cascade with “counter-convection.” This case is not only interesting because the PDE subsystem is unstable, but because the control signal is subject to competing effects of diffusion, which is in both directions in the one-dimensional domain, and counter-convection, which is in the direction that is opposite from the propagation direction of the standard delay (transport PDE) process. We rely on the diffusion process to propagate the control signal through the PDE towards the ODE, to stabilize the ODE.

TL;DR: This work develops an ADRC to attenuate the disturbance of a one-dimensional anti-stable wave equation subject to boundary disturbance and shows that this strategy works well when the derivative of the disturbance is also bounded.
Abstract: In this technical note, we are concerned with the boundary stabilization of a one-dimensional anti-stable wave equation subject to boundary disturbance. We propose two strategies, namely, sliding mode control (SMC) and the active disturbance rejection control (ADRC). The reaching condition, and the existence and uniqueness of the solution for all states in the state space in SMC are established. The continuity and monotonicity of the sliding surface are proved. Considering the SMC usually requires the large control gain and may exhibit chattering behavior, we then develop an ADRC to attenuate the disturbance. We show that this strategy works well when the derivative of the disturbance is also bounded. Simulation examples are presented for both control strategies.

TL;DR: A feedback law based on the backstepping method is designed and exponential stability of the closed-loop system with a desired decay rate is proved and a new Lyapunov function is produced for the classical wave equation with passive boundary damping.
Abstract: We consider the problem of boundary stabilization of a 1-D (one-dimensional) wave equation with an internal spatially varying antidamping term. This term puts all the eigenvalues of the open-loop system in the right half of the complex plane. We design a feedback law based on the backstepping method and prove exponential stability of the closed-loop system with a desired decay rate. For plants with constant parameters the control gains are found in closed form. Our design also produces a new Lyapunov function for the classical wave equation with passive boundary damping.

TL;DR: Capabilities of the proposed synthesis and its effectiveness are supported by numerical studies made for three coupled systems with distinct diffusivity parameters and for underactuated linearized dimensionless temperature-concentration dynamics of a tubular chemical reactor, controlled through a boundary at low fluid superficial velocities when convection terms become negligible.

TL;DR: A problem of boundary stabilization of a class of linear parabolic partial integro-differential equations in one dimension is considered using the method of backstepping, avoiding spatial discretization required in previous efforts.
Abstract: In this paper, a problem of boundary stabilization of a class of linear parabolic partial integro-differential equations (P(I)DEs) in one dimension is considered using the method of backstepping, avoiding spatial discretization required in previous efforts. The problem is formulated as a design of an integral operator whose kernel is required to satisfy a hyperbolic P(I)DE. The kernel P(I)DE is then converted into an equivalent integral equation and by applying the method of successive approximations, the equation's well posedness and the kernel's smoothness are established. It is shown how to extend this approach to design optimally stabilizing controllers. An adaptation mechanism is developed to reduce the conservativeness of the inverse optimal controller, and the performance bounds are derived. For a broad range of physically motivated special cases feedback laws are constructed explicitly and the closed-loop solutions are found in closed form. A numerical scheme for the kernel P(I)DE is proposed; its numerical effort compares favorably with that associated with operator Riccati equations.
