The paper is focused on the controllability property of a rotating rigid body endowed with a number of the Euler-Bernoulli beams. A nonlinear mathematical model of the system considered is obtained within the framework of Lagrangian formalism. It is pointed out that a finite-dimensional approximation of the system is not flat. The linearized dynamics is shown to be controllable, provided that there is no resonance in the system.

In this paper, we present a reduced order modeling technique for a stable self-adjoint spectral system with unbounded input/output operators. An uncertainty model which covers the original distributedparameter system is formulated in view of finite dimensional controller design using linear robust control theory. The model is made of a finite dimensional nominal plant and frequency domain additive error bounds. The nominal model is a modal truncation containing a feed-through term with no dc errors between the nominal plant and the system. The bound is computable using elements of the system and partial knowledge of spectral structure. The formula obtained can be readily applicable to a wide class of systems including heat conduction and diffusion, and easily extended for systems with vibration.

Optimal control of infinite dimensional systems is one of the central problems in the control of distributed parameter systems. With the development of high performance computers, numerical methods for optimal control design have regained attention and achieved significant progress, mostly in the form of open-loop solutions. We consider in this work an optimal control problem for a bilinear parabolic partial differential equation (PDE) system. Based on the optimality conditions derived from Pontryagin's maximum principle for a reduced-order model, and stated as a two-boundary-value problem, we propose an iterative scheme for suboptimal closed-loop control design. In each iteration step, we take advantage of linear synthesis methods to construct a sequence of controllers. The convergence of the controller sequence is proved in appropriate functional spaces. When compared with previous iterative schemes, the proposed scheme avoids repeated numerical computation of the Riccati equation and therefore reduces significantly the number of ODEs that must be solved at each iteration step. A numerical simulation study shows the effectiveness of this new approach.

A robust control is discussed for a certain class of nonlinear mechanical and distributed parameter systems whose desired state may correspond to a mechanical energy level of zero. In such systems, the control objectives are achieved by only dissipating their physical energy. The design procedures were formulated to obtain an asymptotically stable controller. As application examples, the load-swing suppression control of a crane system and the vibration control of a flexible arm where demonstrated. The controllers were found to have large robustness against the changes of the parameter values of the system, as predicted by the theory.< >

In this paper the problem of accommodating particular analog system models, with emphasis on interconnection representation, with discrete event simulators, and particularly with VHDL circuit descriptions, is discussed and a solution is proposed. The results can be successfully used for VHDL modeling and simulation, but they are implementation independent.

A long-standing problem of the start-up instability in the model-reference adaptive control of distributed parameter systems caused by setting the initial controller parameter values sufficiently far from the ideal ones, unknown a priori, is solved for a class of systems. The latter include systems modeled by parabolic and hyperbolic partial differential equations (PDEs) with spatially varying parameters. The stabilizing direct model reference adaptive control (MRAC) laws are synthesized using Lyapunov redesign. The controller uses plant state and for hyperbolic case, additionally, its time derivative. The key feature of the approach proposed is the elimination from the control laws of the plant state spatial derivatives that could give rise to the closed loop system ill-posedness. The approach also prevents closed-loop system instability by keeping the gains for plant state and, in the hyperbolic case - state and its time derivative, negative under arbitrary initial controller parameter setting.

This paper considers the adaptive observers of systems governed by partial differential equations with structured perturbations. As there are many combinations of control, observation, and parametric uncertainty and disturbances at the boundary, a classification of the various combinations is presented. In all cases considered, the parametric uncertainty entering the boundary is expressed as the product of the measured output with unknown parameters. Similarly, the disturbances are also entering at the same boundary as the parametric uncertainties. In all cases, the plant is written as an evolution equation in a Hilbert space and the interplay between the input, output and disturbances operators are presented, and for each case, the feasibility of the adaptive observer is discussed. Selecting the case where the boundary operator associated with the disturbance and the parametric uncertainty is co-located only with the output operator, the adaptive observer that estimates on line the process state, the disturbance and the unknown parameters is presented along with the stability and convergence results. Extensive numerical studies including the special case of nonlinear terms at the boundary are presented.

In this work, we explore a methodology to compute the empirical eigenfunctions for the order-reduction of nonlinear parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs) system with time-varying domain. The idea behind this method is to obtain the mapping functional, which relates the time-evolution scalar physical property solution ensemble of the nonlinear parabolic PDE with the time-varying domain to a fixed reference domain, while preserving space invariant properties of the raw solution ensemble. Subsequently, the Karhunen-Loeve decomposition is applied to the solution ensemble with fixed spatial domain resulting in a set of optimal eigenfunctions that capture the most energy of data. Further, the low dimensional set of empirical eigenfunctions is mapped ("pushed-back") on the time-varying domain by an appropriate mapping resulting in the basis for the construction of the reduced-order model of the parabolic PDEs with time-varying domain. Finally, this methodology is applied in the representative cases of calculation of empirical eigenfunctions in the case of one and two dimensional model of nonlinear reaction-diffusion parabolic PDE systems with analytically defined domain evolutions. In particular, the design of both mappings which relate the raw data and function spaces transformations from the time-varying to time-invariant domain are designed to preserve dynamic features of the scalar physical property and we provide comparisons among reduced and high order fidelity models.

详细信息
The paper proposed to use Fuzzy-Neural Multi-Model (FNMM) identification and control system for decentralized control of distributedparameter anaerobic wastewater treatment digestion bioprocess, carried out in a fixed bed and a recirculation tank. The distributedparameter analytical model of the digestion bioprocess is reduced to a lumped system using the orthogonal collocation method, applied in three collocation points (plus the recirculation tank), which are used as centers of the membership functions of the fuzzyfied space variable of the plant. The states of the proposed FNMM identifier are implemented by a direct feedback-feedforward hierarchical FNMM controller. The comparative graphical simulation results of the digestion anaerobic system control, obtained via learning, exhibited a good convergence, and precise reference tracking outperforming the optimal control.
