Abstract

An adaptive funnel control method is considered for the regulation of the output for a class of nonlinear infinite-dimensional systems on real Hilbert spaces. After a decomposition of the state space and some change of variables related to the Byrnes-Isidori form, it is shown that the funnel controller presented in (Berger et al., 2020) achieves the control objective under some assumptions on the nonlinear system dynamics, like well-posedness and Bounded-Input-State Bounded-Output (BISBO) stability. The theory is applied to the regulation of the temperature in a chemical plug-flow tubular reactor whose reaction kinetics are modeled by the Arrhenius nonlinearity. Furthermore a damped sine-Gordon model is shown to fit the required assumptions as well. The theoretical results are illustrated by means of numerical simulations.
