Frequency Response Data-driven LPV Controller Synthesis for MIMO Systems

The linear parameter-varying framework enables systematic control design approaches to meet increasing performance requirements and complexity of systems. The aim of this paper is to develop local frequency response data-based analysis and synthesis conditions for multiple-input multiple-output linear parameter-varying systems to facilitate...

Bode Analysis of Uncertain Multivariable Systems

Bode plots are crucial for frequency domain analysis of SISO systems. The aim of this paper is to develop a complete approach for Bode plots of multivariable uncertain systems for both the magnitude and phase. The magnitude is based on the singular values. The phase is based on the phase spread of the numerical range. An IQC-based approach is...

Adaptive Nonlinear Incremental Flight Control for Systems with Unknown Control Effectiveness

This article exposes that although some sensor-based nonlinear fault-tolerant control frameworks including incremental nonlinear dynamic inversion control can passively resist a wide range of actuator faults and structural damage without requiring an accurate model of the dynamic system, their stability heavily relies on a sufficient...

Position-Dependent Snap Feedforward: A Gaussian Process Framework

Mechatronic systems have increasingly high performance requirements for motion control. The low-frequency contribution of the flexible dynamics, i.e., the compliance, should be compensated for by means of snap feedforward to achieve high accuracy. Position-dependent compliance, which often occurs in motion systems, requires the snap feedforward...

Relaxing the control-gain assumptions of DSC design for nonlinear MIMO systems

This work focuses on adaptive neural dynamic surface control (DSC) for an extended class of nonlinear MIMO strict-feedback systems whose control gain functions are continuous and possibly unbounded. The method is based on introducing a compact set which is eventually proved to be an invariant set: thanks to this set, the restrictive...
