In this paper piecewise quadratic stability of closed-loop affine Takagi-Sugeno (ATS) fuzzy systems with linear state-space submodels in the consequent of rules is addressed. The control law is assumed in the form of Parallel Distributed Compensation (PDC). Stability analysis of the closed-loop system is based on piecewise quadratic Lyapunov functions. This technique reduces conservatism of cla...

In this paper we consider discrete-time nonlinear systems that are affected, possibly simultaneously, by parametric uncertainties and disturbance inputs. The min-max model predictive control (MPC) methodology is employed to obtain a controller that robustly steers the state of the system towards a desired equilibrium. The aim is to provide a priori sufficient conditions for robust stability of ...

in this paper, control of a non-isothermal continuous stirred tank reactor in which two parallel autocatalytic reactions take place has been addressed. the reactor shows chaotic behavior for a certain set of reactor parameters. in order to control the product concentration, an optimal state feedback controller has been designed. since concentrations of reactor species are not measured, an obser...

A novel approach is proposed to design optimal finite word length (FWL) realizations of digital controllers implemented in fixed-point arithmetic. An analytical method is first formulated to obtain a global optimal controller realization that optimizes an FWL closed-loop stability measure. Since this FWL closed-loop stability measure is solely linked to the fractional part or precision of fixed...

Impedance-based stability analysis normally splits an interconnected system into source and load subsystems and the stability of the closed loop system can be analyzed by the combined input-output gains of source and load. This is an intuitive approach in the case of Single-Input Single-Output (SISO) systems. However, in the case of grid-tied voltage source converter (VSC) systems, dq impedance...

The paper deals with the stability analysis of time-delay reset control systems, for which the resetting law is assumed to satisfy a time-dependent condition. A stability analysis of the closed-loop system is performed based on an appropriate sampled-data system. New linear matrix inequality (LMI) conditions are proposed to ensure the exponential stability of the closed-loop resulting of the co...

This paper presents a new PID controller design method for integrating processes with time delay and time constant. First, the conditions that guarantee the stability of closed-loop system are investigated. Then an optimization method using H = performance criterion is developed for deriving the controller. The stability and performance of closed-loop system are analyzed. The relationship betwe...

On the basis of the Passivity Theorem, this paper provides a new approach to stability analysis for multi-loop control systems. The destabilizing effect of interactions of a multi-input multioutput system is studied using the passivity index. The decentralized unconditional stability condition, which implies closed-loop stability of decentralized control systems under control loop failure, is d...

An active flutter suppression using linear sub-optimal control scheme is investigated for a 2dof airfoil system with nonlinear torsional stiffness and limited deflection amplitude of its single actuator. The suppression of limit cycle oscillations in the nonlinear closed-loop system is achieved through maximization of the stability region of its linearized system. The critical value of the cont...
