This chapter has a tutorial nature in introducing a number of useful concepts which resulted by reasoning with power ports rather than with signals, as people usually do in control. Arjan is one of the Godfathers in t...

This note considers multiagent systems seeking to optimize a convex aggregate *** assume that the gradient of this function is distributed, meaning that each agent can compute its corresponding partial derivative with...

In this paper we study a number of problems in the context of rational representations of behaviors. In that context, a given proper real rational matrix can represent three behaviors. In the first place it can repres...

This article presents two topics, i.e., well-posedness of piecewise affine systems, and model reduction of network systems. The well-posedness problem, i.e., the problem of existence and uniqueness of solutions, of hy...

It is a pleasure to dedicate this contribution to Prof. Arjan van der Schaft on the occasion of his 60th birthday. We study the dynamics of energy distribution networks consisting of switching power converters and mul...

The aim of this work is to show how the Dirac structure properties can be exploited in the development of energy-based boundary control laws for distributed port-Hamiltonian systems. Stabilisation of non-zero equilibr...

We consider triangular decompositions for nonlinear control systems. For systems that are exactly linearizable by static feedback it is well known that a triangular structure exists in adapted coordinates using the Fr...

In this chapter we aim to extend the Brayton Moser (BM) framework for modeling infinite-dimensional systems. Starting with an infinite-dimensional port- Hamiltonian system we derive a BM equivalent which can be define...

The classical complex phasor representation of sinusoidal voltages and currents is generalized to arbitrary waveforms. The method relies on the so-called analytic signal using the Hilbert *** naturally leads to the no...

For systems described by Port-Hamiltonian (PH) equations, the control by Interconnection method, based on the existence of Casimir functions, provides a simple and elegant procedure for stabilization of nonlinear syst...
