Distributed Adaptive Synchronization in Euler Lagrange Networks with Uncertain Interconnections

In this work we propose a new practical synchronization protocol for multiple Euler Lagrange (EL) systems without structural linear-in-the-parameters (LIP) knowledge of the uncertainty and where the agents can be interconnected before control design by unknown state-dependent interconnection terms. This setting is meant to overcome two...

Adaptive Prescribed Performance Asymptotic Tracking for High-Order Odd-Rational-Power Nonlinear Systems

Practical tracking results have been reported in the literature for high-order odd-rational-power nonlinear dynamics (a chain of integrators whose power is the ratio of odd integers). Asymptotic tracking remains an open problem for such dynamics. This note gives a positive answer to this problem in the framework of prescribed performance...

Fuzzy Adaptive Zero-Error-Constrained Tracking Control for HFVs in the Presence of Multiple Unknown Control Directions

This article attempts to realize zero-error constrained tracking for hypersonic flight vehicles (HFVs) subject to unknown control directions and asymmetric flight state constraints. The main challenges of reaching such goals consist in that addressing multiple unknown control directions requires novel conditional inequalities encompassing the...
