Feedback Control of Negative-Imaginary Systems

TLDR
In this paper, the robustness of positive-position feedback control of flexible structures with colocated force actuators and position sensors is investigated using the theory of negative-imaginary systems, which can be extended to nonlinear systems through the notion of counterclockwise input-output dynamics.
Abstract
This paper investigates the robustness of positive-position feedback control of flexible structures with colocated force actuators and position sensors. In particular, the theory of negative-imaginary systems is used to reveal the robustness properties of multi-input, multi-output (MIMO) positive-position feedback controllers and related types of controllers for flexible structures. The negative-imaginary property of linear systems can be extended to nonlinear systems through the notion of counterclockwise input-output dynamics.
