This paper presents a data-driven nonlinear safe control design approach for discrete-time systems under parametric uncertainties and additive disturbances. We first characterize a new control structure from which a data-based…

High-dimensional systems that have a low-dimensional dominant behavior allow for model reduction and simplified analysis. We use differential analysis to formalize this important concept in a nonlinear setting. We show that dominance can be…

Nonlinear systems are capable of displaying complex behavior even if this is the result of a small number of interacting time scales. A widely studied case is when complex dynamics emerges out of a nonlinear system being forced by a simple…

Flexible manufacturing has been the trend in the area of the modern chemical process nowadays. One of the essential characteristics of flexible manufacturing is to track time-varying target trajectories (e.g. diversity and quantity of…

This paper considers the problem of real-time control and learning in dynamic systems subjected to parametric uncertainties. We propose a combination of a Reinforcement Learning (RL) based policy in the outer loop suitably chosen to ensure…

Control design for general nonlinear robotic systems with guaranteed stability and/or safety in the presence of model uncertainties is a challenging problem. Recent efforts attempt to learn a controller and a certificate (e.g., a Lyapunov…

In this paper we propose a solution to the problem of parameter estimation of nonlinearly parameterized regressions--continuous or discrete time--and apply it for system identification and adaptive control. We restrict our attention to…

This work deals with the stability analysis of nonlinear sampled-data systems under nonuniform sampling. It establishes novel relationships between the stability property of the exact discrete-time model for a given sequence of (aperiodic)…

Adaptive control is subject to stability and performance issues when a learned model is used to enhance its performance. This paper thus presents a deep learning-based adaptive control framework for nonlinear systems with…

This paper presents a data-integrated framework for learning the dynamics of fractional-order nonlinear systems in both discrete-time and continuous-time settings. The proposed framework consists of two main steps. In the first step,…

We present a novel approach for learning nonlinear dynamic models, which leads to a new set of tools capable of solving problems that are otherwise difficult. We provide theory showing this new approach is consistent for models with long…

A solid system consisting of two heat conducting cylinders with a thermoelectric converter (Peltier element) between them is considered. A nonlinear model, which was previously verified by authors, is used to design a constrained control…

We present a novel robust control framework for continuous-time, perturbed nonlinear dynamical systems with uncertainty that depends nonlinearly on both the state and control inputs. Unlike conventional approaches that impose structural…

This article addresses the following problems: 1) First, a nonlinearity analysis is made looking for the presence of nonlinearities in an early phase of the identification process. The level and the nature of the nonlinearities should be…

Finite elasticity problems commonly include material and geometric nonlinearities and are solved using various numerical methods. However, for highly nonlinear problems, achieving convergence is relatively difficult and requires small load…

In applications of nonlinear and complex dynamical systems, a common situation is that the system can be measured but its structure and the detailed rules of dynamical evolution are unknown. The inverse problem is to determine the system…

Recently developed reduced-order modeling techniques aim to approximate nonlinear dynamical systems on low-dimensional manifolds learned from data. This is an effective approach for modeling dynamics in a post-transient regime where the…

We present a new solution for fundamental problems in nonlinear dynamical systems: finding, verifying, and stabilizing cycles. The solution we propose consists of a new control method based on mixing previous states of the system (or the…

Much recent interest has focused on the design of optimization algorithms from the discretization of an associated optimization flow, i.e., a system of differential equations (ODEs) whose trajectories solve an associated optimization…

For nonlinear discrete time systems satisfying a controllability condition, we present a stability condition for model predictive control without stabilizing terminal constraints or costs. The condition is given in terms of an analytical…
