Rapid acceleration and burst maneuvers in underwater robots depend less on maintaining precise resonance and more on force--velocity phase alignment during thrust generation. In this work, we investigate constrained-layer damping (CLD) as a…

Engineered cyberphysical systems are growing increasingly large and complex. These systems require scalable controllers that robustly satisfy state and input constraints in the presence of additive noise -- such controllers should also be…

Modern control systems must operate in increasingly complex environments subject to safety constraints and input limits, and are often implemented in a hierarchical fashion with different controllers running at multiple time scales. Yet…

In this work, we propose a two-stage approach to strengthen piecewise McCormick relaxations for mixed-integer nonlinear programs (MINLP) with multi-linear terms. In the first stage, we exploit Constraint Programing (CP) techniques to…

Multi-objective model predictive control (MOMPC) for fixed point stabilization requires an automated a priori decision-making (DM) mechanism to translate a high-level preference into a single solution. To this aim, we introduce an approach…

This paper introduces the concept of parameter-dependent (PD) control Lyapunov functions (CLFs) for gain-scheduled stabilization of nonlinear parameter-varying (NPV) systems. It shows that given a PD-CLF, a min-norm control law can be…

Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) are stochastic optimization problems that model situations where a decision maker controls a system based on its state. Partially observed Markov decision processes (POMDPs) are generalizations of MDPs where…

This work presents a dual system-level parameterization (D-SLP) method for closed-loop system identification. The recent system-level synthesis framework parameterizes all stabilizing controllers via linear constraints on closed-loop…

The classic pump scheduling or Optimal Water Flow (OWF) problem for water distribution networks (WDNs) minimizes the cost of power consumption for a given WDN over a fixed time horizon. In its exact form, the OWF is a computationally…

This paper introduces the notion of weak rigidity to characterize a framework by pairwise inner products of inter-agent displacements. Compared to distance-based rigidity, weak rigidity requires fewer constrained edges in the graph to…

Tube-based model predictive control (MPC) methods leverage tubes to bound deviations from a nominal trajectory due to uncertainties in order to ensure constraint satisfaction. This paper presents a novel tube-based MPC formulation based on…

A new three-dimensional, non-linear Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) model has been extended in MIPS code, incorporating parallel heat diffusivity. The model has been benchmarked against the former MHD model used in MIPS code. A preliminary study…

In this paper, a new model based nonlinear control technique, called PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) type sliding surface based sliding mode control is designed using improved reaching law. To improve the performance of the second…

Polynomial machine learning potentials (MLPs) based on polynomial rotational invariants have been systematically developed for various systems and applied to efficiently predict crystal structures. In this study, we propose a robust…

Approximate linear programming (ALP) and its variants have been widely applied to Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) with a large number of states. A serious limitation of ALP is that it has an intractable number of constraints, as a result…

This paper presents an adaptive horizon multi-stage model-predictive control (MPC) algorithm. It establishes appropriate criteria for recursive feasibility and robust stability using the theory of input-to-state practical stability (ISpS).…

Several results regarding the stability and the stabilization of linear impulsive positive systems under arbitrary, constant, minimum, maximum and range dwell-time are obtained. The proposed stability conditions characterize the pointwise…

Linear Parameter-Varying (LPV) systems with piecewise differentiable parameters is a class of LPV systems for which no proper analysis conditions have been obtained so far. To fill this gap, we propose an approach based on the theory of…

This paper addresses the problem of finite horizon constrained robust optimal control for nonlinear systems subject to norm-bounded disturbances. To this end, the underlying uncertain nonlinear system is decomposed based on a first-order…

Lifted linear predictor (LLP) is an artificial linear dynamical system designed to predict trajectories of a generally nonlinear dynamical system based on the current state (or measurements) and the input. The main benefit of the LLP is its…
