An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) formation in a leader-follower structure, where the UAVs are flying a common trajectory determined by a route planner hosted on the leader is considered. The path description is compressed by polynomial functions with respect to the flight envelope constraints and transmitted to the followers, where a model predictive control (MPC) outer loop controller specifies the command signals for the 7-h locally controlled dynamics with respect to the nonlinear constraints of the aircraft dynamics. Real time feasibility issues associated with the design are discussed.

The optical behaviour of the (human) cornea is often characterized with the Zernike-coefficients derived via the Zernike-transform of its optical power map. In this paper, a radial transform based on the Chebyshev-polynomials of the second kind is suggested for a surface-based, rather than an optical power map based representation of the cornea. This transform is well-suited for providing compact representations for quasi-hemispherical surfaces, and after appropriate argument-transform applied to these polynomials also for spherical-calotte-like surfaces. Examples illustrating the effect of the argument-transformation are also included in the paper.
The even Chebyshev-polynomials of the second kind - modified with appropriate argument-transforms - were used to describe quasi-hemispherical and calotte-like natural surfaces over a set of discrete points - and via i...

The even Chebyshev-polynomials of the second kind - modified with appropriate argument-transforms - were used to describe quasi-hemispherical and calotte-like natural surfaces over a set of discrete points - and via interpolation - between these points. The point-set used was selected in a manner that promotes the proper approximation of such surfaces and the numerical implementation of the surface representation algorithm. The representations of such optical surfaces (e.g., the outer surface of the human cornea) in the basis formed by these Chebyshev-polynomials - and by their transformed versions - provide computational alternatives to the Zernike-based description of the optical aberrations caused by such surfaces.

Velocity-scheduled LPV steering models for road-vehicles are presented and a method is given for identifying them. The aim is to build models for steering controllers that navigate the vehicle either directly by the steering system or by asymmetric braking of the front wheels. These models are useful e.g. for autonomous vehicles and for safety control in steer-by-wire systems. A continuous-time physical model is developed in state-space, then various complexity LPV models are derived and identified based on in-situ measurements of a truck.

The paper deals with the LPV systems in respect to fault detection and isolation. The FPRG method is extended to use with affine LPV system where one could guarantee the disturbance attenuation. The paper presents a method for the robust detection filter design based on geometric approach for Linear Parameter Varying systems. The filter is using the general Fundamental Problem in Residual Generation method in presence of external noise, while disturbance decoupling from failure signitures in LPV system is not possible. The disturbance attenuation is achieved with induced L2 norm minimization concepts for LPV model class. A numerical example is solved to demonstrate the effectiveness of robust LPV fault detection filter.

The paper proposes a dynamic inversion based velocity tracking controller for four-wheeled road vehicles, that fits well into cooperating controlsystems. First, the dynamic inverse of the linear parameter varying (LPV) single-track model is constructed, and the global asymptotic stability of the zero dynamics is proved. Using the obtained stable inverse two controllers are designed depending on whether the yaw rate is measurable on not. In both cases the quadratic stability of the resulted closed-loop control structure is checked and proved. The dynamic properties of the proposed controllers are illustrated on simulation examples.

The global and local stability of process systems in generalized Lotka-Volterra form is studied in this paper using entropy-like and quadratic Lyapunov function candidates. The global stability check for LV models is performed by solving an LMI for a diagonal positive semi-definite matrix using singular perturbation technique. It is shown that a quadratic Lyapunov function can also be determined by solving linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). In addition, the quadratic stability neighborhood is convex in the space of the quasi-monomials and can be estimated by computing its corner points using LMIs. Furthermore, it is proved that quadratic stability with a diagonal weighting matrix enables to construct a dissipative-Hamiltonian description of the system. The developed methods are illustrated on the model of a continuously stirred tank reactor with a nonlinear reaction system.
