Book Mastering Frequency Domain Techniques for the Stability Analysis of LTI Time Delay Systems

Download or read book Mastering Frequency Domain Techniques for the Stability Analysis of LTI Time Delay Systems written by Rifat Sipahi and published by SIAM. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many dynamical systems, time delays arise because of the time it takes to measure system states, perceive and evaluate events, formulate decisions, and act on those decisions. The presence of delays may lead to undesirable outcomes; without an engineered design, the dynamics may underperform, oscillate, and even become unstable. How to study the stability of dynamical systems influenced by time delays is a fundamental question. Related issues include how much time delay the system can withstand without becoming unstable and how to change system parameters to render improved dynamic characteristics, utilize or tune the delay itself to improve dynamical behavior, and assess the stability and speed of response of the dynamics. Mastering Frequency Domain Techniques for the Stability Analysis of LTI Time Delay Systems addresses these questions for linear time-invariant (LTI) systems with an eigenvalue-based approach built upon frequency domain techniques. Readers will find key results from the literature, including all subtopics for those interested in deeper exploration. The book presents step-by-step demonstrations of all implementations?including those that require special care in mathematics and numerical implementation?from the simpler, more intuitive ones in the introductory chapters to the more complex ones found in the later chapters. Maple and MATLAB code is available from the author?s website. This multipurpose book is intended for graduate students, instructors, and researchers working in control engineering, robotics, mechatronics, network control systems, human-in-the-loop systems, human-machine systems, remote control and tele-operation, transportation systems, energy systems, and process control, as well as for those working in applied mathematics, systems biology, and physics. It can be used as a primary text in courses on stability and control of time delay systems and as a supplementary text in courses in the above listed domains.

Book Sparse Polynomial Approximation of High Dimensional Functions

Download or read book Sparse Polynomial Approximation of High Dimensional Functions written by Ben Adcock and published by SIAM. This book was released on 2022-02-16 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over seventy years ago, Richard Bellman coined the term “the curse of dimensionality” to describe phenomena and computational challenges that arise in high dimensions. These challenges, in tandem with the ubiquity of high-dimensional functions in real-world applications, have led to a lengthy, focused research effort on high-dimensional approximation—that is, the development of methods for approximating functions of many variables accurately and efficiently from data. This book provides an in-depth treatment of one of the latest installments in this long and ongoing story: sparse polynomial approximation methods. These methods have emerged as useful tools for various high-dimensional approximation tasks arising in a range of applications in computational science and engineering. It begins with a comprehensive overview of best s-term polynomial approximation theory for holomorphic, high-dimensional functions, as well as a detailed survey of applications to parametric differential equations. It then describes methods for computing sparse polynomial approximations, focusing on least squares and compressed sensing techniques. Sparse Polynomial Approximation of High-Dimensional Functions presents the first comprehensive and unified treatment of polynomial approximation techniques that can mitigate the curse of dimensionality in high-dimensional approximation, including least squares and compressed sensing. It develops main concepts in a mathematically rigorous manner, with full proofs given wherever possible, and it contains many numerical examples, each accompanied by downloadable code. The authors provide an extensive bibliography of over 350 relevant references, with an additional annotated bibliography available on the book’s companion website (www.sparse-hd-book.com). This text is aimed at graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and researchers in mathematics, computer science, and engineering who are interested in high-dimensional polynomial approximation techniques.

Book Interpolatory Methods for Model Reduction

Download or read book Interpolatory Methods for Model Reduction written by A. C. Antoulas and published by SIAM. This book was released on 2020-01-13 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dynamical systems are a principal tool in the modeling, prediction, and control of a wide range of complex phenomena. As the need for improved accuracy leads to larger and more complex dynamical systems, direct simulation often becomes the only available strategy for accurate prediction or control, inevitably creating a considerable burden on computational resources. This is the main context where one considers model reduction, seeking to replace large systems of coupled differential and algebraic equations that constitute high fidelity system models with substantially fewer equations that are crafted to control the loss of fidelity that order reduction may induce in the system response. Interpolatory methods are among the most widely used model reduction techniques, and Interpolatory Methods for Model Reduction is the first comprehensive analysis of this approach available in a single, extensive resource. It introduces state-of-the-art methods reflecting significant developments over the past two decades, covering both classical projection frameworks for model reduction and data-driven, nonintrusive frameworks. This textbook is appropriate for a wide audience of engineers and other scientists working in the general areas of large-scale dynamical systems and data-driven modeling of dynamics.

The book supplies relevant results alongside their proofs in a compact and streamlined presentation that is easy to navigate. The core audience for this book is engineers, computer scientists, and statisticians who are interested in compressed sensing. Professionals working in image processing, speech processing, or seismic signal processing will also find the book of interest.

Book Nonlocal Integral Equation Continuum Models

Download or read book Nonlocal Integral Equation Continuum Models written by Marta D'Elia and published by SIAM. This book was released on 2024-09-12 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents the state of the art of nonlocal modeling and discretization and provides a practical introduction to nonlocal modeling for readers who are not familiar with such models. These models have recently become a viable alternative to classical partial differential equations when the latter are unable to capture effects such as discontinuities and multiscale behavior in a system of interest. Because of their integral nature, nonlocal operators allow for the relaxation of regularity requirements on the solution and thus allow for the capture of multiscale effects, the result of which is their successful use in many scientific and engineering applications. The book also provides a thorough analysis and numerical treatment of nonstandard nonlocal models, focusing on both well-known and nonstandard interaction neighborhoods. In addition, the book delivers an extensive practical treatment of the implementation of discretization strategies via finite element methods. Numerous figures are provided as concrete examples to illustrate both the analytic and computational results. Nonlocal Integral Equation Continuum Models: Nonstandard Interaction Neighborhoods and Finite Element Discretizations is intended for mathematical and application researchers interested in alternatives to using partial differential equation models that better describe the phenomena they are interested in. The book will also be of use to computational scientists and engineers who need to make sense of how to use available software, improve existing software, or develop new software tailored to their application interests.

Book Stability  Control  and Computation for Time Delay Systems

Download or read book Stability Control and Computation for Time Delay Systems written by Wim Michiels and published by SIAM. This book was released on 2014-12-11 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Time delays are important components of many systems in, for instance, engineering, physics, economics, and the life sciences, because the transfer of material, energy, and information is usually not instantaneous. Time delays may appear as computation and communication lags, they model transport phenomena and heredity, and they arise as feedback delays in control loops. This monograph addresses the problem of stability analysis, stabilization, and robust fixed-order control of dynamical systems subject to delays, including both retarded- and neutral-type systems. Within the eigenvalue-based framework, an overall solution is given to the stability analysis, stabilization, and robust control design problem, using both analytical methods and numerical algorithms and applicable to a broad class of linear time-delay systems.? In this revised edition, the authors make the leap from stabilization to the design of robust and optimal controllers and from retarded-type to neutral-type delay systems, thus enlarging the scope of the book within control; include new, state-of-the-art material on numerical methods and algorithms to broaden the book?s focus and to reach additional research communities, in particular numerical linear algebra and numerical optimization; and increase the number and range of applications to better illustrate the effectiveness and generality of their approach.?
