this paper deals with the problem of forbidden states in discrete event systems modeled by petri net. to avoid the forbidden states, some constraints which are called generalized mutual exclusion constraints can be assigned to them. enforcing these constraints on the system can be performed using control places. however, when the number of these constraints is large, a large number of control p...

This paper proposes a discrete-time repetitive optimal control of electrically driven robotic manipulators using an uncertainty estimator. The proposed control method can be used for performing repetitive motion, which covers many industrial applications of robotic manipulators. This kind of control law is in the class of torque-based control in which the joint torques are generated by permanen...

a method for solving the descriptor discrete-time linear system is focused. for easily, it is converted to a standard discrete-time linear system by the definition of a derivative state feedback. then partial eigenvalue assignment is used for obtaining state feedback and solving the standard system. in partial eigenvalue assignment, just a part of the open loop spectrum of the standard linear s...

  Background: Nonspecific symptoms are common in all areas of medicine. Patients and caregivers can be frustrated when an illness cannot be reduced to a discrete pathophysiological process that corresponds with the symptoms. We therefore asked the following questions: 1) Which demographic factors and psychological comorbidities are associated with change from an initial diagnosis of nonspecific...

this paper is concerned with the problem of designing discrete-time control systems with closed-loop eigenvalues in a prescribed region of stability. first, we obtain a state feedback matrix which assigns all the eigenvalues to zero, and then by elementary similarity operations we find a state feedback which assigns the eigenvalues inside a circle with center   and radius. this new algorithm ca...

A discrete event system (DES) is a dynamic system that evolves in accordance with the abrupt occurrence, at possibly unknown irregular intervals, of physical events. Because of the special nature of these systems, different tools are currently used for their analysis, design and modeling. The main focus of this paper is the presentation of a new modeling approach of Discrete Event Systems. The ...

farmers are now more interested in application of weed control methods and tools with less environmental side effects. flame weeding using propane gas is an approach with almost no any chemical residue on the soil and plant surfaces or underground water. in this research, a flame weeding machine with the ability of uniform and also discrete flaming was developed and evaluated in laboratory and ...

anti-lock braking system (abs) is a nonlinear and time varying system including uncertainty, so it cannot be controlled by classic methods. intelligent methods such as fuzzy controller are used in this area extensively; however traditional fuzzy controller using simple type-1 fuzzy sets may not be robust enough to overcome uncertainties. for this reason an interval type-2 fuzzy controller is de...

this paper is pertained with the problem of admissibility analysis of uncertain discrete-time nonlinear singular systems by adopting the state-space takagi-sugeno fuzzy model with time-delays and norm-bounded parameter uncertainties. lyapunov krasovskii functionals are constructed to obtain delay-dependent stability condition in terms of linear matrix inequalities, which is dependent on the low...
