This paper proposes a novel threshold control approach for creating multi-scroll chaotic attractors. The general jerk circuit is used as an example to show the working principle of this method. The controlled jerk circuit can emerge various limit cycles and n-scroll chaotic attractors by adjusting the upper threshold, lower threshold, and the width of inner saturated plateau. The dynamical mechanism of the threshold control is then further explored by analyzing the system dynamical behaviors. In particular, this method is effective and simple to implement since we only need monitor a single state variable and reset it if it exceeds the thresholds. It indicates the potential engineering applications for various chaos-based information systems

This modeling study investigates the functional role of pacemaker neurons in generating stable rhythms in the pre-Botzinger complex, a subcircuit of the respiratory pattern-generating circuitry in mammals. While the presence of pacemakers within the network is without doubt, the percentage and significance of such pacemakers is still unresolved. Here we revisited earlier network simulations by varying the fraction of pacemaker and non-pacemaker neurons within the network, and quantifying the robustness of the input parameter space and range of frequencies output by the network. Stable network rhythms were possible even with no pacemakers. However, we found that a network of at least 50% pacemakers produced the greatest range of output frequencies and had the more robust input space

In this paper, the design of a fault detection filter for nonlinear systems is presented. The nonlinear system is represented as a sequence of linear time-varying approximations and at each linear approximation the design of an optimal stochastic fault detection filter for linear time-varying systems is applied. The final residual is primarily affected by a target fault and minimally by nuisance faults.

Iterative learning control has the potential to significantly improve the tracking performance of repeating trajectory controlsystems. However, until now little attempt has been made to measure this performance quantitatively. A new iterative learning control performance index PI N is introduced which allows direct, quantitative, performance comparison of different algorithms, or alternatively a single algorithm which has variable tuning parameters. In particular, PI N can be used as a tool for selecting and adjusting algorithm tuning parameters. Application of the new performance index is demonstrated with both simulation studies and practical implementation on a gantry robot

The recent advances in learning control theory are reviewed. First insight is provided into the concept and principle associated with learning control under a repeatable control environment. Then a briefing is given to the two main streams of learning control-iterative learning control and repetitive control. Subsequently we survey several hot topics in the field of learning control. New trends in learning control using Lyapunov methods are also sketched, followed by remarks on future directions.

Iterative learning control (ILC) is a powerful control concept that iteratively improves the behavior of processes that are repetitive in nature and cross-coupled control (CCC) has been developed to effectively reduce the contouring error. This paper proposes an integrated controller which combines ILC and CCC to achieve a better performance. In the presented preliminary simulation study, smaller contour error and tracking error can be achieved and moreover, contouring error is less oscillatory because CCC suppresses the inter-axis mismatch "cross error".

Norm-optimal iterative learning control has potential to significantly increase the accuracy of many trajectory tracking tasks which can be found in industry. The algorithm can achieve very low levels of tracking error and the number of iterations required to reach minimal error is small compared to many other iterative learning control algorithms. However, in the current format, the algorithm is not attractive to industry because it requires a large number of calculations to be performed at each sample instant. This implies that control hardware must be very fast which is expensive, or that the sample frequency must be reduced which can result in reduced performance. To remedy these problems, a revised version, fast norm-optimal iterative learning control is proposed which is significantly simpler and faster to implement. The new version is tested both in simulation and in practice on a three axis industrial gantry robot.

Repetitive processes are a distinct class of 2D systems (*** propagation in two independent directions) of both systems theoretic and applications interest. They cannot be controlled by direct extension of existing techniques from either standard (termed 1D here) or 2D systems theory. Here we give new results on the design of physically based control laws and, in particular, the first results on a mixed H 2 /H ∞ approach and on H 2 control in the presence of uncertainty in the process model.
