This paper investigates the full-state feedback lineaxization and backstepping control design problems for a class of nonlinear Markovian jump *** to the proposed relative degree set definition,the system can be transformed into the canonical form through the appropriate coordinate changes following with the Markovian switchings,i.e.,the system can be full-state feedback linearized in every jnmp mode with respect to the relative degree set {n,...,n}.Then,a stabilizing control is designed through applying the backstepping technique,which guarantees the asymptotically stability of nonlinear Markovian jump systems.

Human interest input could greatly enhance the efficiency of the multi-robot exploration. However, most of the previous work did not take the intention of the operator into account. In this paper, a human interest oriented multi-robot exploration system is designed. The system is composed of a mobile base station and several robot explorers. A human interest oriented task allocation method is developed to enable these robot explorers to coordinate based on the operator's intention. Furthermore, an optimization index is proposed to balance the obedience, connectivity and explorability of the system; and the optimization problem is solved to generate the movements of the mobile base station and the robot explorers. Simulations and real-world experiments have demonstrate the effectiveness of the system and the efficiency of the exploration process.

In this paper, we present a gain-scheduling distributed model predictive control (MPC) algorithm for polytopic uncertain systems subject to actuator saturation. A large-scale system is decomposed into subsystems and sub-controllers are designed independently. An invariant set condition is provided and a min-max distributed MPC strategy is proposed based on the invariant set. The distributed MPC controller is determined by solving a linear matrix inequality (LMI) optimization problem. An iterative algorithm is provided to coordinate the sub-controllers. A numerical example is carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, we present an improved analytic method to the optimal trajectory generation of an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) in a dynamic environment. The proposed approach explicitly incorporates both the AUV kinematic and the geometric constraints due to dynamic obstacles and the terrain while rendering the near-shortest path by a performance index related to the path length. In particular, the proposed design is based on a family of parameterized trajectories determined by three adjustable parameters, which provides a unified way to reformulate the geometric constraints and performance index into a set of parameterized constraint equations. To that end, such a constrained optimization problem boils down to optimize those adjustable parameters, which can be analytically solved in the parameter space. The proposed solution enhances the methodologies of real-time path planning for robots in 3D environment. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper studies the global leader-following consensus problem for a multi-agent system using bounded controls. Both the agents and the leader are described by a chain of integrators of arbitrary length. A saturated linear feedback control law is constructed for each system in the group. These feedback laws use a multi-hop relay protocol, in which each agent obtains the information of other agents through multi-hop paths in the communication network, and the feedback gains are constructed from the adjacency matrix of the communication network. It is shown that global leader-following consensus is achieved under the feedback control laws we have constructed when the communication topology among follower agents is a strongly connected and detailed balanced directed graph and the leader is a neighbor of at least one follower. Simulation results are given to illustrate the theoretical results.

This paper presents a type of vibration energy harvester combining a piezoelectric cantilever and a single degree of freedom (SDOF) elastic system. The main function of the additional SDOF elastic system is to magnify vibration displacement of the piezoelectric cantilever to improve the power output. A mathematical model of the energy harvester is developed based on Hamilton's principle and Rayleigh-Ritz method. Furthermore, the effects of the structural parameters of the SDOF elastic system on the electromechanical outputs of the energy harvester are analyzed numerically. The accuracy of the output performance in the numerical solution is identified from the finite element method (FEM). A good agreement is found between the numerical results and FEM results. The results show that the power output can be increased and the frequency bandwidth can be improved when the SDOF elastic system has a larger lumped mass and a smaller damping ratio. The numerical results also indicate that a matching load resistance under the short circuit resonance condition can obtain a higher current output, and so is more suitable for application to the piezoelectric energy harvester.
