In this article, the minimum time control problem of an electric vehicle is modeled as a Mayer problem in optimal control, with affine dynamics with respect to the control and with state constraints. The candidates as minimizers are…
Mechanical systems are most often described by a set of continuous-time, nonlinear, second-order differential equations (SODEs) of a particular structure governed by the covariant derivative. The digital implementation of controllers for…
Distributed control algorithms are known to reduce overall computation time compared to centralized control algorithms. However, they can result in inconsistent solutions leading to the violation of safety-critical constraints. Inconsistent…
This paper presents tracking control laws for two different objectives of a nonholonomic system - a spherical robot - using a geometric approach. The first control law addresses orientation tracking using a modified trace potential…
We present an application of equation-free computation to the coarse-grained feedback linearization problem of nonlinear systems described by microscopic/stochastic simulators. Feedback linearization with pole placement requires the…
In this paper, we study the cooperative output regulation problem for the discrete linear time-delay multi-agent systems by distributed observer approach. In contrast with the same problem for continuous-time linear time-delay multi-agent…
By a numerical continuation method called a diagonal homotopy we can compute the intersection of two positive dimensional solution sets of polynomial systems. This paper proposes to use this diagonal homotopy as the key step in a procedure…
This paper addresses the trajectory-tracking problem for a class of electromechanical systems. To this end, the dynamics of the plants are modeled in the so-called port-Hamiltonian framework. Then, the notion of contraction is exploited to…
This paper introduces a continuous-time constrained nonlinear control scheme which implements a model predictive control strategy as a continuous-time dynamic system. The approach is based on the idea that the solution of the optimal…
Statistical solutions are time-parameterized probability measures on spaces of integrable functions, that have been proposed recently as a framework for global solutions and uncertainty quantification for multi-dimensional hyperbolic system…
In this paper we study the distributions of the number of real solutions to the power flow equations over varying electrical parameters. We introduce a new monodromy and parameter homotopy continuation method for quickly finding all…
Three aspects of applying homotopy continuation, which is commonly used to solve parameterized systems of polynomial equations, are investigated. First, for parameterized systems which are homogeneous, we investigate options for performing…
We adopt the so--called \emph{occupation number representation}, originally used in quantum mechanics and recently adopted in the description of several classical systems, in the analysis of the dynamics of some models of closed ecosystems.…
We propose a distributed control, in which many identical control agents are deployed for controlling a linear time-invariant plant that has multiple input-output channels. Each control agent can join or leave the control loop during the…
A basic result in synchronization of linear systems via output coupling is presented. For identical discrete-time linear systems that are detectable from their outputs and neutrally stable, it is shown that a linear output feedback law…
A conventional way to handle model predictive control (MPC) problems distributedly is to solve them via dual decomposition and gradient ascent. However, at each time-step, it might not be feasible to wait for the dual algorithm to converge.…
A homotopy method for multi-objective optimization that produces uniformly sampled Pareto fronts by construction is presented. While the algorithm is general, of particular interest is application to simulation-based engineering…
Continuous monitoring and real-time control of high-dimensional distributed systems are often crucial in applications to ensure a desired physical behavior, without degrading stability and system performances. Traditional feedback control…
The goal of this paper is to provide computational tools able to find a solution of a system of polynomial inequalities. The set of inequalities is reformulated as a system of polynomial equations. Three different methods, two of which…
Feedback optimization algorithms compute inputs to a system using real-time output measurements, which helps mitigate the effects of disturbances. However, existing work often models both system dynamics and computations in either discrete…
