For a partially unknown linear systems, we present a systematic control design approach based on generated data from measurements of closed-loop experiments with suitable test controllers. These experiments are used to improve the achieved…

Recently, there has been a surge of research on a class of methods called feedback optimization. These are methods to steer the state of a control system to an equilibrium that arises as the solution of an optimization problem. Despite the…

Biological motor control provides highly effective solutions to difficult control problems in spite of the complexity of the plant and the significant delays in sensory feedback . Such delays are expected to lead to non trivial stability…

This paper investigates the problem of regulating in real time a linear dynamical system to the solution trajectory of a time-varying constrained convex optimization problem. The proposed feedback controller is based on an adaptation of the…

While reinforcement learning has made great improvements, state-of-the-art algorithms can still struggle with seemingly simple set-point feedback control problems. One reason for this is that the learned controller may not be able to excite…

In this work, it is demonstrated that the usual power system dynamic model exhibits a feedforward-feedback control structure. The distinct properties of the feedforward and feedback subsystems are identified and studied using respective…

This paper proposes an output feedback controller capable of ensuring steady-state offset-free tracking for ramp and sinusoidal reference signals while ensuring local stability and state and input constraints fulfillment. The proposed…

Shared control combines human intention with autonomous decision-making. At the low level, the primary goal is to maintain safety regardless of the user's input to the system. However, existing shared control methods-based on, e.g., Model…

Unknown nonlinear dynamics can limit the performance of model-based feedforward control. The aim of this paper is to develop a feedforward control framework for systems with unknown, typically nonlinear, dynamics. To address the unknown…

This paper presents a new control approach for guaranteed safety (remaining in a safe set) subject to actuator constraints (the control is in a convex polytope). The control signals are computed using real-time optimization, including…

Set-point tracking for systems with unknown model parameters is a fundamental problem in control, and two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF) Proportional-Integral (PI) controllers -- consisting of a feedforward controller and PI controller -- are…

Growing demands in the semiconductor industry result in the need for enhanced performance of lithographic equipment. However, position tracking accuracy of high precision mechatronics is often limited by the presence of disturbance sources,…

Rotary motors, such as hybrid stepper motors (HSMs), are widely used in industries varying from printing applications to robotics. The increasing need for productivity and efficiency without increasing the manufacturing costs calls for…

In this paper, we present an impedance control design for multi-variable linear and nonlinear robotic systems. The control design considers force and state feedback to improve the performance of the closed loop. Simultaneous feedback of…

This paper proposes a hybrid-gain finite-time sliding-mode control (HG-FTSMC) strategy for a class of perturbed nonlinear systems. The controller combines a finite-time reaching law that drives the sliding variable to a predefined boundary…

This paper investigates a planar tracking problem between a leader and follower agent. We propose a novel feedback speed control law, paired with a constant bearing steering strategy, to maintain an abreast formation between the two agents.…

If embedded with command filter properly, the implementation of backstepping design could be dramatically simplified. In this paper, we introduce a command filter with time-varying gain and integrate it with backstepping design, resulting…

Accurate modeling of lower-level controller plays an important role in the traffic flow of automated vehicles (AVs). However, there lacks enough attention with this respect. To address this issue, we conduct a field experiment with two…

Navigation problems under unknown varying conditions are among the most important and well-studied problems in the control field. Classic model-based adaptive control methods can be applied only when a convenient model of the plant or…

We consider funnel control for linear infinite-dimensional systems that are impedance passive, meaning that they satisfy an energy balance in which the stored energy equals the squared norm of the state and the supplied power is the inner…
