To reduce the typical time-consuming routines of plant modeling for model-based controller designs, the fictitious reference iterative tuning (FRIT) has been proposed and has proven to be effective in many applications. However, it is…

Controlling complex dynamical systems has been a topic of considerable interest in academic circles in recent decades. While existing works have primarily focused on closed-loop control schemes with infinite-time durations, this paper…

This work presents a theoretical framework for the safety-critical control of time delay systems. The theory of control barrier functions, that provides formal safety guarantees for delay-free systems, is extended to systems with state…

Declines in cost and concerns about the environmental impact of traditional generation have boosted the penetration of renewables and non-conventional distributed energy resources into the power grid. The intermittent availability of these…

In this article, we study the linear time-invariant state-feedback controller design problem for distributed systems. We follow the recently developed system level synthesis (SLS) approach and impose locality structure on the resulting…

Funnel control achieves output tracking with guaranteed tracking performance for unknown systems and arbitrary reference signals. In particular, the tracking error is guaranteed to satisfy time-varying error bounds for all times (it evolves…

The fundamental lemma by Jan C. Willems and co-authors enables the representation of all input-output trajectories of a linear time-invariant system by measured input-output data. This result has proven to be pivotal for data-driven…

Max-Plus Linear (MPL) systems are an algebraic formalism with practical applications in transportation networks, manufacturing and biological systems. In this paper, we investigate the problem of automatically analyzing the properties of…

This paper deals with designing a robust fixed-order dynamic output feedback controller for uncertain fractional order linear time invariant (FO-LTI) systems by means of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Our purpose is to design a low…

Recursive filters are treated as linear time-invariant (LTI) systems but they are not: uninitialised, they have an infinite number of outputs for any given input, while if initialised, they are not time-invariant. This short tutorial…

This paper addresses the robust ${\cal H}_2$ synthesis problem for linear fractional transformation (LFT) systems subject to structured uncertainty (parameter) and white-noise disturbances. By introducing an intermediate matrix variable, we…

We first develop systematic and comprehensive interval observer designs for linear time-invariant (LTI) systems, under standard assumptions of observability and interval bounds on the initial condition and uncertainties. Traditionally, such…

Given a Control Lyapunov Function (CLF), Sontag's famous Formula provides a nonlinear state-feedback guaranteeing asymptotic stability of the setpoint. At the same time, a cost function that depends on the CLF is minimized. While there…

We design controllers from formal specifications for positive discrete-time monotone systems that are subject to bounded disturbances. Such systems are widely used to model the dynamics of transportation and biological networks. The…

We analyze in this paper the effect of the well known intelligent proportional controller on the stability of linear control systems. Inspired by the literature on neutral time delay systems and advanced type systems, we derive sufficient…

We study Transformers through the perspective of optimal control theory, using tools from continuous-time formulations to derive actionable insights into training and architecture design. This framework improves the performance of existing…

In this paper, a method to synthesize controllers using finite time convergence control barrier functions guided by linear temporal logic specifications for continuous time multi-agent dynamical systems is proposed. Finite time convergence…

Critical systems must be designed resilient to all kinds of malfunctions. We are especially interested by the loss of control authority over actuators. This malfunction considers actuators producing uncontrolled and possibly undesirable…

An integral extension of state-feedback controllers for linear time-varying plants is proposed, which preserves performance of the nominal controller in the unperturbed case. Similar to time-invariant state feedback with integral action,…

The formal analysis and design of control systems is one of recent trends in control theory. In this area, in order to reduce the complexity and scale of control systems, finite abstractions of control systems are introduced and explored.…
