Implementing optimal controllers on embedded systems can be challenging as it requires the solution of an optimization problem in real-time. Furthermore, the a priory verification of stability, e.g. not relying on the possibly numerical solution of an optimization problem is often not possible. We propose a non-linear control synthesis based on an approximated explicit solution of a constrained optimal control problem, which can be efficiently implemented and verified. The control law is derived based on a series expansion of an infinite horizon optimal control problem via Al’brekht‘s Method. In comparison to existing approaches we consider parametric uncertainties. The proposed method provides under certain conditions an approximated solution of the Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman (HJB) equation. The feedback control law uses a finite number of terms of the series expansion, and therefore the evaluation does not require intensive online computation. Furthermore, the optimal control strategy does not only achieve an approximated infinite horizon performance but is also parameterized in terms of the varying parameters which are assumed to be known. We provide a proof of convergence and existence of the optimal control law. Simulation results with a non-linear quadcopter example show the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.

Achieving a new set point and maintaining it with a desired precision is a common control problem. In case the reference is not fixed, or a priori unknown disturbances are present, the problem is often referred to as offset-free control. We consider the problem of finding suitable controller parameters to obtain an offset-free control up to a certain degree. We tackle the problem in two steps: first, we find controller parameters to steer the controlled system in the neighborhood of the desired reference;second, we identify controller parameters such that the system is robustly controlled invariant with respect to the desired neighborhood of the reference value. For each subproblem we determine the set of parameters that guarantee the desired behavior despite bounded uncertainties. We employ a set-based feasibility formulation which is able to handle nonlinear systems with set constraints. The approach is illustrated with an example.

The lattice kinetic scheme (LKS) is a modified version of the classical single relaxation time lattice Boltzmann method. Although used for many applications, especially when large variations in viscosity are involved, a thorough analysis of the scheme has not been provided yet. In the context of this work, the macroscopic behavior of this scheme is evaluated through the Chapman-Enskog analysis. It is shown that the additional degree of freedom provided in the scheme allows for an independent control of higher-order moments. These results are further corroborated by numerical simulations. The behavior of this numerical scheme is studied for selected external and internal flows to clarify the effect of the free parameter on the different moments of the distribution function. It is shown that it is more stable than SRT (single relaxation time) when confronted to fully periodic under-resolved simulations (especially for λ≈1). It can also help minimize the error coming from the viscosity-dependence of the wall position when combined with the bounce-back approach; although still present, viscosity-dependence of the wall position is reduced. Furthermore, as shown through the multiscale analysis, specific choices of the free parameter can cancel out the leading-order error. Overall, the LKS is shown to be a useful and efficient alternative to the SRT method for simulating numerically complex flows.

Standard lattice Boltzmann methods (LBMs) are based on a symmetric discretization of the phase space, which amounts to study the evolution of particle distribution functions (PDFs) in a reference frame at rest. This choice induces a number of limitations when the simulated flow speed gets closer to the sound speed, such as velocity-dependent transport coefficients. The latter issue is usually referred to as a Galilean invariance defect. To restore the Galilean invariance of LBMs, it was proposed to study the evolution of PDFs in a comoving reference frame by relying on asymmetric shifted lattices [N. Frapolli, S. S. Chikatamarla, and I. V. Karlin, Phys. Rev. Lett. 117, 010604 (2016)]. From the numerical viewpoint, this corresponds to overcoming the rather restrictive Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy conditions on standard LBMs and modeling compressible flows while keeping memory consumption and processing costs to a minimum (therefore using the standard first-neighbor stencils). In the present work systematic physical error evaluations and stability analyses are conducted for different discrete equilibrium distribution functions (EDFs) and collision models. Thanks to them, it is possible to (1) better understand the effect of this solution on both physics and stability, (2) assess its viability as a way to extend the validity range of LBMs, and (3) quantify the importance of the reference state as compared to other parameters such as the equilibrium state and equilibration path. The results clearly show that, in theory, the concept of shifted lattices allows the scheme to deal with arbitrarily high values of the nondimensional velocity. Furthermore, just like the zero-Mach flow for the standard stencils, it is observed that setting the shift velocity to the fluid velocity results in optimal physical and numerical properties. In addition, a detailed analysis of the obtained results shows that the properties of different collision models and EDFs remain unchanged under the shi

The lattice kinetic scheme (LKS), a modified version of the classical single relaxation time (SRT) lattice Boltzmann method, was initially developed as a suitable numerical approach for non-Newtonian flow simulations and a way to reduce memory consumption of the original SRT approach. The better performances observed for non-Newtonian flows are mainly due to the additional degree of freedom allowing an independent control over the relaxation of higher-order moments, independently from the fluid viscosity. Although widely applied to fluid flow simulations, no theoretical analysis of LKS has been performed. The present work focuses on a systematic von Neumann analysis of the linearized collision operator. Thanks to this analysis, the effects of the modified collision operator on the stability domain and spectral behavior of the scheme are clarified. Results obtained in this study show that correct choices of the “second relaxation coefficient” lead, to a certain extent, to a more consistent dispersion and dissipation for large values of the first relaxation coefficient. Furthermore, appropriate values of this parameter can lead to a larger linear stability domain. At moderate and low values of viscosity, larger values of the free parameter are observed to increase dissipation of kinetic modes, while leaving the acoustic modes untouched and having a less pronounced effect on the convective mode. This increased dissipation leads in general to less pronounced sources of nonlinear instability, thus improving the stability of the LKS.
