this paper is concerned withthe design of robust controllers with observers. In general, the nominal model is selected as the state-space model for the observer to estimate the states even if the plant has uncertainties. However, the properness of this strategy is ambiguous. this paper evaluates the properness of selecting the nominal model for state estimation of the plant with uncertainties. Sato (2018a) proposed a new type of controller so-called observer-structured controller. the controller introduces additional freedom for selecting the state-space model used for the state estimation. Withthis type of controller, this paper demonstrates that the adequate selection of estimation model improves the closed-loop control performance through numerical examples.

In this paper, the problem of stability, recursive feasibility and convergence conditions of stochastic model predictive control for linear discrete-time systems affected by a large class of correlated disturbances is addressed. A stochastic model predictive controlthat guarantees convergence, average cost bound and chance constraint satisfaction is developed. the results rely on the computation of probabilistic reachable and invariant sets using the notion of correlation bound. this control algorithm results from a tractable deterministic optimal control problem with a cost function that upper-bounds the expected quadratic cost of the predicted state trajectory and control sequence. the proposed methodology only relies on the assumption of the existence of bounds on the mean and the covariance matrices of the disturbance sequence.

In this paper we present a novel switching function for multiplicative watermarking systems. the switching function is based on the algebraic structure of elliptic curves over finite fields. the resulting function allows for both watermarking generator and remover to define appropriate system parameters, sharing only limited information, namely a private key. We prove that the resulting watermarking parameters lead to a stable watermarking scheme. Copyright (C) 2022 the Authors.

In this paper seminal approaches for FDI introduced by Frank (Frank, 1990) are revisited in a bilinear setting. the proposed developments, including Fault Tolerant control (Noura et al, 2000) are applied to Building Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems. that is, the control system parameters and objective functions are adapted/reconfigured in the presence of a fault or performance deviation by means of an intermediate reconfigurable control layer. It allows maintaining building and HVAC operation within its specified energy and comfort performance requirements when a mechanical or operational fault takes place, until the fault is corrected. An integrated design, composed of two levels, respectively fault diagnosis and reconfiguration mechanism is proposed to recover performances after fault occurrence. this approach is applied to a two-zones building and simulation results are given to show its effectiveness.

Multi-vehicle aerial robots present great potential in accomplishing manipulation tasks, because of their high payload capacity and full manipulability in 3-dimensional space. Belonging to this class of aerial robots, the Flying Parallel Robot (FPR) is an architecture where a moving platform is supported collectively by a team of quadrotors with passive kinematic chains. While the modelling and control of the FPR in free space has been studied in the previous work, there is lack of consideration in robot-environment interaction, which is however significant to develop the industrial applications of such robots. In this paper, we implement an external wrench estimator and an impedance-based controller with force tracking capability to achieve the disturbance rejection and the physical interaction withthe environment. Extensive experimental validations have shown the FPR capable of hovering in presence of additional payload and strong wind perturbations, and performing contact-based interaction tasks.

this paper presents a fault-tolerant observer-based leader-following control for multi-agent systems subject to actuator faults. the stability of the observer and the controller under actuator faults is proved using the Lyapunov theory. the observer and controller gain matrices solution is expressed by means of linear matrix inequalities. the effectiveness of the proposed approach is illustrated using a numerical example associated with a virtual leader-following consensus problem of an aircraft fleet under actuator faults.

Model Free control (MFC) is a novel technique to overcome some modeling and control challenges of highly nonlinear systems. the MFC control strategy consists of two parts, i.e., ultra-local model-based control and state feedback control. this paper proposes the robust Linear Parameter-Varying (LPV) method for design the state feedback control part of the strategy. In the design of robust LPV controlthe effect of the ultra-local model, formed as a disturbance, is involved. the contribution of this extension to the original concept of MFC design is that a desired performance of the closed-loop system can be achieved. the effectiveness of the presented control strategy is demonstrated through a trajectory tracking problem of autonomous vehicles using the high-fidelity simulation software, IPG CarMaker.

During the progression of complex diseases caused by qualitative shifts in gene networks, the deteriorations may be abrupt and cause a critical transition from a healthy state to a disease state. We define a pre-disease state as a state just before the imminent critical transition. Medical treatment in the pre-disease state should be more efficient than in the disease state. this paper proposes a data-driven method to design an input assignment and a stabilizing controller to avoid this kind of qualitative shift. the proposed method only requires a small number of data samples on the steady pre-disease state. We show numerical examples to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method. Copyright (C) 2022 the Authors.

A digital twin for turntable ladders increases the efficiency of the development process and especially the parameterization of the already established active damping control. therefore, the goal of this paper is to derive a precise dynamic model of a turntable ladder. Large forces acting on the vehicle cause flexible deformation like twisting of the chassis. A multibody system representing the chassis and support structure of the vehicle is considered and the dynamics are derived by using the Lagrange formalism. the conducted sensitivity analysis reveals that not all parameters can be identified withthe measurable outputs of that system. Hence, the Fisher-Information Matrix (FIM) is used to determine less sensitive parameters. By several assumptions, the amount of different parameters is reduced yielding a modified dynamic system with identifiable parameter set. Copyright (C) 2022 the Authors.

the problem of synthesizing stochastic explicit model predictive control policies is known to be quickly intractable even for systems of modest complexity when using classical control-theoretic methods. To address this challenge, we present a scalable alternative called stochastic parametric differentiable predictive control (SP-DPC) for unsupervised learning of neural control policies governing stochastic linear systems subject to nonlinear chance constraints. SP-DPC is formulated as a deterministic approximation to the stochastic parametric constrained optimal control problem. this formulation allows us to directly compute the policy gradients via automatic differentiation of the problem's value function, evaluated over sampled parameters and uncertainties. In particular, the computed expectation of the SP-DPC problem's value function is backpropagated through the closed-loop system rollouts parametrized by a known nominal system dynamics model and neural control policy which allows for direct model-based policy optimization. We demonstrate the computational efficiency and scalability of the proposed policy optimization algorithm in three numerical examples, including systems with a large number of states or subject to nonlinear constraints.
