In this study, we consider the experimentally-obtained, periodically-forced response of a nonlinear structure in the presence of process noise. Control-based continuation is used to measure both the stable and unstable periodic solutions…

The dynamical behavior of switched affine systems is known to be more intricate than that of the well-studied switched linear systems, essentially due to the existence of distinct equilibrium points for each subsystem. First, under…

We analyze robust stability, in an input-output sense, of switched stable systems. The primary goal (and contribution) of this paper is to design switching strategies to guarantee that input-output stable systems remain so under switching.…

Standard model-based control design deteriorates when the system dynamics change during operation. To overcome this challenge, online and adaptive methods have been proposed in the literature. In this work, we consider the class of…

We perform stability analysis of a kinetic bacterial chemotaxis model of bacterial self-organization, assuming that bacteria respond sharply to chemical signals. The resulting discontinuous tumbling kernel represents the key challenge for…

Most studies tackling hysteresis identification in the technical literature follow white-box approaches, i.e. they rely on the assumption that measured data obey a specific hysteretic model. Such an assumption may be a hard requirement to…

Control using quantized feedback is a fundamental approach to system synthesis with limited communication capacity. In this paper, we address the stabilization problem for unknown linear systems with logarithmically quantized feedback, via…

We study robust $H_\infty$ coherent-classical estimation for a class of physically realizable linear quantum systems with parameter uncertainties. Such a robust coherent-classical estimator, with or without coherent feedback, can yield…

In this paper, we propose state- and static output-feedback generalized guaranteed cost control (GCC) approaches for discrete-time linear systems subject to norm-bounded structured parametric uncertainties. This method enables the convex…

Consider the problem of covertly controlling a linear system. In this problem, Alice desires to control (stabilize or change the behavior of) a linear system, while keeping an observer, Willie, unable to decide if the system is indeed being…

Model mismatch often poses challenges in model-based controller design. This paper investigates model predictive control (MPC) of uncertain linear systems with input constraints, focusing on stability and closed-loop infinite-horizon…

The AC frequency in electrical power systems is conventionally regulated by synchronous machines. The gradual replacement of these machines by asynchronous renewable-based generation, which provides little or no frequency control, increases…

We consider a network of event-based systems that use a shared wireless medium to communicate with their respective controllers. These systems use a contention resolution mechanism to arbitrate access to the shared network. We identify…

In this paper, we directly design a state feedback controller that stabilizes a class of uncertain nonlinear systems solely based on input-state data collected from a finite-length experiment. Necessary and sufficient conditions are derived…

Intracavity frequency-doubled solid-state lasers exhibit intensity fluctuations of their light output, which are cause by nonlinear dynamical processes. Up to now, there are different solutions to this problem, but they reduce the output…

This work addresses the design of static output feedback control of discrete-time nonlinear systems satisfying a local Lipschitz continuity condition with time-varying uncertainties. The controller has also a guaranteed disturbance…

Uncertainty from renewable energy and loads is one of the major challenges for stable grid operation. Various approaches have been explored to remedy these uncertainties. In this paper, we design centralized or decentralized state-feedback…

This paper investigates the robust output regulation problem for an uncertain linear minimum-phase plant with cooperative parallel operation of multiple actuators. Building on the internal model approach, we first propose a dynamic output…

Structural damping is known to be approximately rate-independent in many cases. Popular models for rate-independent dissipation are hysteresis models; and a highly popular hysteresis model is the Bouc-Wen model. If such hysteretic…

Stability guarantees are critical for cycle-by-cycle controlled dc-dc converters in consumer electronics and energy storage systems. Traditional stability analysis on cycle-by-cycle dc-dc converters is incomplete because the inductor…
