Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Commande prédictive ou Commande Optimale à Horizon Glissant (COHG) devient de plus en plus populaire dans de nombreuses applications pratiques en raison de ses avantages importants tels que la stabilisation et la prise en compte des contraintes. Elle a été bien étudiée pour des systèmes en dimension finie même dans le cas non linéaire. Cependant, son extension aux systèmes en dimension infinie n'a pas retenu beaucoup d'attention de la part des chercheurs. Ce travail de thèse apporte des contributions à l'application de cette approche aux systèmes de lois de conservation. Nous présentons tout d'abord une preuve de stabilité complète de la COHG pour certaines classes de systèmes en dimension infinie. Ce résultat est ensuite utilisé pour les systèmes hyperboliques 2x2 commandés aux frontières et appliqué à un problème de contrôle de canal d'irrigation. Nous proposons aussi l'extension de cette stratégie au cas de réseaux de systèmes hyperboliques 2x2 en cascade avec une application à un ensemble de canaux d'irrigation connectés. Nous étudions également les avantages de la COHG dans le contexte des systèmes non linéaires et semi-linéaires notamment vis-à-vis des chocs. Toutes les analyses théoriques sont validées par simulation afin d'illustrer l'efficacité de l'approche proposée.
Download or read book Zonotopes written by Vu Tuan Hieu Le and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-12-04 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title focuses on two significant problems in the field of automatic control, in particular state estimation and robust Model Predictive Control under input and state constraints, bounded disturbances and measurement noises. The authors build upon previous results concerning zonotopic set-membership state estimation and output feedback tube-based Model Predictive Control. Various existing zonotopic set-membership estimation methods are investigated and their advantages and drawbacks are discussed, making this book suitable both for researchers working in automatic control and industrial partners interested in applying the proposed techniques to real systems. The authors proceed to focus on a new method based on the minimization of the P-radius of a zonotope, in order to obtain a good trade-off between the complexity and the accuracy of the estimation. They propose a P-radius based set-membership estimation method to compute a zonotope containing the real states of a system, which are consistent with the disturbances and measurement noise. The problem of output feedback control using a zonotopic set-membership estimation is also explored. Among the approaches from existing literature on the subject, the implementation of robust predictive techniques based on tubes of trajectories is developed. Contents 1. Uncertainty Representation Based on Set Theory. 2. Several Approaches on Zonotopic Guaranteed Set-Membership Estimation. 3. Zonotopic Guaranteed State Estimation Based on P-Radius Minimization. 4. Tube Model Predictive Control Based on Zonotopic Set-Membership Estimation.

Download or read book Linear Parameter Varying and Time Delay Systems written by Corentin Briat and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-09-03 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an introduction to the analysis and control of Linear Parameter-Varying Systems and Time-Delay Systems and their interactions. The purpose is to give the readers some fundamental theoretical background on these topics and to give more insights on the possible applications of these theories. This self-contained monograph is written in an accessible way for readers ranging from undergraduate/PhD students to engineers and researchers willing to know more about the fields of time-delay systems, parameter-varying systems, robust analysis, robust control, gain-scheduling techniques in the LPV fashion and LMI based approaches. The only prerequisites are basic knowledge in linear algebra, ordinary differential equations and (linear) dynamical systems. Most of the results are proved unless the proof is too complex or not necessary for a good understanding of the results. In the latter cases, suitable references are systematically provided. The first part pertains on the representation, analysis and control of LPV systems along with a reminder on robust analysis and control techniques. The second part is concerned with the representation and analysis of time-delay systems using various time-domain techniques. The third and last part is devoted to the representation, analysis, observation, filtering and control of LPV time-delay systems. The book also presents many important basic and advanced results on the manipulation of LMIs.

Download or read book Semiparametric Theory and Missing Data written by Anastasios Tsiatis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-01-15 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book summarizes current knowledge regarding the theory of estimation for semiparametric models with missing data, in an organized and comprehensive manner. It starts with the study of semiparametric methods when there are no missing data. The description of the theory of estimation for semiparametric models is both rigorous and intuitive, relying on geometric ideas to reinforce the intuition and understanding of the theory. These methods are then applied to problems with missing, censored, and coarsened data with the goal of deriving estimators that are as robust and efficient as possible.
