Book Robust Adaptive Dynamic Programming

Download or read book Robust Adaptive Dynamic Programming written by Yu Jiang and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-04-13 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive look at state-of-the-art ADP theory and real-world applications This book fills a gap in the literature by providing a theoretical framework for integrating techniques from adaptive dynamic programming (ADP) and modern nonlinear control to address data-driven optimal control design challenges arising from both parametric and dynamic uncertainties. Traditional model-based approaches leave much to be desired when addressing the challenges posed by the ever-increasing complexity of real-world engineering systems. An alternative which has received much interest in recent years are biologically-inspired approaches, primarily RADP. Despite their growing popularity worldwide, until now books on ADP have focused nearly exclusively on analysis and design, with scant consideration given to how it can be applied to address robustness issues, a new challenge arising from dynamic uncertainties encountered in common engineering problems. Robust Adaptive Dynamic Programming zeros in on the practical concerns of engineers. The authors develop RADP theory from linear systems to partially-linear, large-scale, and completely nonlinear systems. They provide in-depth coverage of state-of-the-art applications in power systems, supplemented with numerous real-world examples implemented in MATLAB. They also explore fascinating reverse engineering topics, such how ADP theory can be applied to the study of the human brain and cognition. In addition, the book: Covers the latest developments in RADP theory and applications for solving a range of systems’ complexity problems Explores multiple real-world implementations in power systems with illustrative examples backed up by reusable MATLAB code and Simulink block sets Provides an overview of nonlinear control, machine learning, and dynamic control Features discussions of novel applications for RADP theory, including an entire chapter on how it can be used as a computational mechanism of human movement control Robust Adaptive Dynamic Programming is both a valuable working resource and an intriguing exploration of contemporary ADP theory and applications for practicing engineers and advanced students in systems theory, control engineering, computer science, and applied mathematics.

Book Finite Time Stability  An Input Output Approach

Download or read book Finite Time Stability An Input Output Approach written by Francesco Amato and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Systematically presents the input-output finite-time stability (IO-FTS) analysis of dynamical systems, covering issues of analysis, design and robustness The interest in finite-time control has continuously grown in the last fifteen years. This book systematically presents the input-output finite-time stability (IO-FTS) analysis of dynamical systems, with specific reference to linear time-varying systems and hybrid systems. It discusses analysis, design and robustness issues, and includes applications to real world engineering problems. While classical FTS has an important theoretical significance, IO-FTS is a more practical concept, which is more suitable for real engineering applications, the goal of the research on this topic in the coming years. Key features: Includes applications to real world engineering problems. Input-output finite-time stability (IO-FTS) is a practical concept, useful to study the behavior of a dynamical system within a finite interval of time. Computationally tractable conditions are provided that render the technique applicable to time-invariant as well as time varying and impulsive (i.e. switching) systems. The LMIs formulation allows mixing the IO-FTS approach with existing control techniques (e. g. H∞ control, optimal control, pole placement, etc.). This book is essential reading for university researchers as well as post-graduate engineers practicing in the field of robust process control in research centers and industries. Topics dealt with in the book could also be taught at the level of advanced control courses for graduate students in the department of electrical and computer engineering, mechanical engineering, aeronautics and astronautics, and applied mathematics.

Book Stability and Stabilization of Nonlinear Systems

Download or read book Stability and Stabilization of Nonlinear Systems written by Iasson Karafyllis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-04-02 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently, the subject of nonlinear control systems analysis has grown rapidly and this book provides a simple and self-contained presentation of their stability and feedback stabilization which enables the reader to learn and understand major techniques used in mathematical control theory. In particular: the important techniques of proving global stability properties are presented closely linked with corresponding methods of nonlinear feedback stabilization; a general framework of methods for proving stability is given, thus allowing the study of a wide class of nonlinear systems, including finite-dimensional systems described by ordinary differential equations, discrete-time systems, systems with delays and sampled-data systems; approaches to the proof of classical global stability properties are extended to non-classical global stability properties such as non-uniform-in-time stability and input-to-output stability; and new tools for stability analysis and control design of a wide class of nonlinear systems are introduced. The presentational emphasis of Stability and Stabilization of Nonlinear Systems is theoretical but the theory’s importance for concrete control problems is highlighted with a chapter specifically dedicated to applications and with numerous illustrative examples. Researchers working on nonlinear control theory will find this monograph of interest while graduate students of systems and control can also gain much insight and assistance from the methods and proofs detailed in this book.

Book Stabilization  Synchronization and Tracking of Nonlinear Systems by Feedback Domination Approach

Download or read book Stabilization Synchronization and Tracking of Nonlinear Systems by Feedback Domination Approach written by Song Yan and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation presents a series of fundamental and challenging control problems and their solutions for nonlinear systems, including global stabilization for a class of upper-triangular nonlinear systems, global asymptotic synchronization via sampled-data feedback, finite-time control for synchronization and bounded tracking of a variable-speed wind turbine nonlinear system. The problem of global stabilization for a class of upper-triangular nonlinear systems is first discussed in this dissertation. We focus on the nonlinear systems whose linearization around the origin can and cannot be guaranteed to be controllable, respectively and a variety of nonlinearity growth rates which depend on the input are considered. Based on adding a power integrator technique and the homogeneous domination design, the state-feedback controller is recursively constructed such that the closed-loop systems are globally asymptotically stable. We also investigate the problem of using sampled-data feedback to synchronize a slave (driven) system with a master (driver) system. Based on the domination approach, both state-feedback and output-feedback control methods using sampled-data are proposed to make the tracking error converge to zero. This issue is of practical importance since in practice the system state is transmitted as sampled signal, and very often only the output is measurable. The problem of finite-time synchronization is also discussed where a homogeneous nonlinear controller is designed to make the tracking error converge to zero in a finite time. In addition, the finite-time control technique is applied to solve the tracking problem of a variable-speed wind turbine system. A finite-time nonlinear tracking controller has been designed for an obtained variable-speed wind turbine model to achieve finite-time asymptotic tracking control for reference rotor speed signals, in order to capture maximum wind power in the operational mode. The proposed scheme relies on Barrier Lyapunov Functions, with which the output of closed-loop system will remain bounded under a mild condition on the initial output. The comparison between the designed controller and traditional finite-time controller which is based on Quadratic Lyapunov Functions is presented.
