Distributed model predictive control of dynamically decoupled systems with coupled cost

This paper considers the distributed model predictive control (DMPC) of systems with interacting subsystems having decoupled dynamics and constraints but coupled costs. An easily-verifiable constraint is introduced to ensure asymptotic stability of the overall system in the absence of disturbance. The constraint introduced has a parameter which allows for the performance of the DMPC system to approach that controlled by a centralized model predictive controller. When the subsystems are linear and additive disturbance is present, the added constraint ensures the state of each subsystem converges to its respective minimal disturbance invariant set. The approach is demonstrated via several numerical examples.     

Arbitrary decay rate for two connected strings with joint anti-damping by boundary output feedback

In this paper, we are concerned with the boundary stabilization of two connected strings with middle joint anti-damping for which all eigenvalues of the (control) free system are located on the right complex plane. We first design an explicit state feedback controller to achieve exponential stability for the closed-loop system. Consequently, we design the output feedback by using infinite-dimensional observer. The backstepping approach is adopted in investigation. It is shown that by using one boundary stabilizer only, the output feedback can make the closed-loop system exponentially stable with arbitrary decay rate.     

Markov Jump Linear Systems with switching transition rates: Mean square stability with dwell-time

The stability of a class of Markov Jump Linear Systems characterized by piecewise-constant transition rates and system dynamics is investigated. For these Switching Markov Jump Linear Systems, mean square stability is analyzed through the time evolution of the second-order moment of the state. The main result is a sufficient condition that guarantees mean square stability under constraints on the dwell-time between switching instants. An alternative condition based on Kronecker calculus is worked out. It is shown that both the stability criteria admit an LMI implementation.     

Design of robust-optimal output feedback controllers for linear uncertain systems using LMI-based approach and genetic algorithm

This paper considers the robust-optimal design problems of output feedback controllers for linear systems with both time-varying elemental (structured) and norm-bounded (unstructured) parameter uncertainties. Two new sufficient conditions are proposed in terms of linear-matrix-inequalities (LMIs) for ensuring that the linear output feedback systems with both time-varying elemental and norm-bounded parameter uncertainties are asymptotically stable, where the mixed quadratically-coupled parameter uncertainties are directly considered in the problem formulation. A numerical example is given to show that the presented sufficient conditions are less conservative than existing ones reported recently. Then, by integrating the hybrid Taguchi-genetic algorithm (HTGA) and the proposed LMI-based sufficient conditions, a new integrative approach is presented to find the output feedback controllers of the linear systems with both time-varying elemental and norm-bounded parameter uncertainties such that the control objective of minimizing a quadratic integral performance criterion subject to the stability robustness constraint is achieved. A design example of the robust-optimal output feedback controller for the AFTI/F-16 aircraft control system with the time-varying elemental parameter uncertainties is given to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed new integrative approach.     

Nonlinear embedding preserving multiple local-linearities

Locally linear embedding (LLE) is one of the effective and efficient algorithms for nonlinear dimensionality reduction. This paper discusses the stability of LLE, focusing on the optimal weights for extracting local linearity behind the considered manifold. It is proven that there are multiple sets of weights that are approximately optimal and can be used to improve the stability of LLE. A new algorithm using multiple weights is then proposed, together with techniques for constructing multiple weights. This algorithm is called as nonlinear embedding preserving multiple local-linearities (NEML). NEML improves the preservation of local linearity and is more stable than LLE. A short analysis for NEML is also given for isometric manifolds. NEML is compared with the local tangent space alignment (LTSA) in methodology since both of them adopt multiple local constraints. Numerical examples are given to show the improvement and efficiency of NEML.     

A computational study of vortex-airfoil interaction using high-order finite difference methods

Simulations of the interaction between a vortex and a NACA0012 airfoil are performed with a stable, high-order accurate (in space and time), multi-block finite difference solver for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations.We begin by computing a benchmark test case to validate the code. Next, the flow with steady inflow conditions are computed on several different grids. The resolution of the boundary layer as well as the amount of the artificial dissipation is studied to establish the necessary resolution requirements. We propose an accuracy test based on the weak imposition of the boundary conditions that does not require a grid refinement.Finally, we compute the vortex-airfoil interaction and calculate the lift and drag coefficients. It is shown that the viscous terms add the effect of detailed small scale structures to the lift and drag coefficients.

Structure and BIBO stability of a three-dimensional fuzzy two-term control system

A novel three-dimensional fuzzy logic controller (3D FLC) was developed recently for spatially distributed systems. In this study, the inherent spatial structure feature of a 3D FLC with two spatial inputs (also called as 3D two-term FLC) is first exposed via an analytical model. Then, the global bounded-input/bounded-output (BIBO) stability of the 3D fuzzy two-term control system is discussed. A sufficient condition is derived and provided as a useful criterion for the controller design of the 3D two-term FLC. Finally, a catalytic packed-bed reactor is presented as an example of spatially distributed process to demonstrate the effectiveness of the controller.
