    This paper investigates the finite-region boundedness (FRB) and stabilization problems for two-dimensional continuous-discrete linear Roesser models subject to two kinds of disturbances. For two-dimensional continuous-discrete system, we first put forward the concepts of finite-region stability and FRB. Then, by establishing special recursive formulas, sufficient conditions of FRB for two-dimensional continuous-discrete systems with two kinds of disturbances are formulated. Furthermore, we analyze the finite-region stabilization issues for the corresponding two-dimensional continuous-discrete systems and give generic sufficient conditions and sufficient conditions that can be verified by linear matrix inequalities for designing the state feedback controllers which ensure the closed-loop systems FRB. Finally, viable experimental results are demonstrated by illustrative examples

    This is the post-print version of the Article. The official published version can be accessed from the link below - Copyright @ 2012 IEEEIn this paper, a new synchronization problem is addressed for an array of 2-D coupled dynamical networks. The class of systems under investigation is described by the 2-D nonlinear state space model which is oriented from the well-known Fornasini–Marchesini second model. For such a new 2-D complex network model, both the network dynamics and the couplings evolve in two independent directions. A new synchronization concept is put forward to account for the phenomenon that the propagations of all 2-D dynamical networks are synchronized in two directions with influence from the coupling strength. The purpose of the problem addressed is to first derive sufficient conditions ensuring the global synchronization and then extend the obtained results to more general cases where the system matrices contain either the norm-bounded or the polytopic parameter uncertainties. An energy-like quadratic function is developed, together with the intensive use of the Kronecker product, to establish the easy-to-verify conditions under which the addressed 2-D complex network model achieves global synchronization. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the theoretical results and the effectiveness of the proposed synchronization scheme.This work was supported in part by the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grants 61028008 and 61174136, the International Science and Technology Cooperation Project of China under Grant No. 2009DFA32050, the Natural Science Foundation of Jiangsu Province of China under Grant BK2011598, the Qing Lan Project of Jiangsu Province of China, the Project sponsored by SRF for ROCS of SEM of China, the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) of the U.K. under Grant GR/S27658/01, the Royal Society of the U.K., and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany

    Finite-region stability of 2-D singular Roesser systems with directional delays

    Get PDF
    In this paper, the problem of finite-region stability is studied for a class of two-dimensional (2-D) singular systems described by using the Roesser model with directional delays. Based on the regularity, we first decompose the underlying singular 2-D systems into fast and slow subsystems corresponding to dynamic and algebraic parts. Then, with the Lyapunov-like 2-D functional method, we construct a weighted 2-D functional candidate and utilize zero-type free matrix equations to derive delay-dependent stability conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). More specifically, the derived conditions ensure that all state trajectories of the system do not exceed a prescribed threshold over a pre-specified finite region of time for any initial state sequences when energy-norms of dynamic parts do not exceed given bounds

    H∞ and H2 norms of 2D mixed continuous-discrete-time systems via rationally-dependent complex Lyapunov functions

    Get PDF
    This paper addresses the problem of determining the H∞ and H2 norms of 2-D mixed continuous-discrete-time systems. The first contribution is to propose a novel approach based on the use of complex Lyapunov functions with even rational parametric dependence, which searches for upper bounds on the sought norms via linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). The second contribution is to show that the upper bounds provided are nonconservative by using Lyapunov functions in the chosen class with sufficiently large degree. The third contribution is to provide conditions for establishing the tightness of the upper bounds. The fourth contribution is to show how the numerical complexity of the proposed approach can be significantly reduced by proposing a new necessary and sufficient LMI condition for establishing positive semidefiniteness of even Hermitian matrix polynomials. This result is also exploited to derive an improved necessary and sufficient LMI condition for establishing exponential stability of 2-D mixed continuous-discrete-time systems. Some numerical examples illustrate the proposed approach. It is worth remarking that nonconservative LMI methods for determining the H∞and H2 norms of 2-D mixed continuous-discrete-time systems have not been proposed yet in the literature.postprin

    Relaxing Fundamental Assumptions in Iterative Learning Control

    Full text link
    Iterative learning control (ILC) is perhaps best decribed as an open loop feedforward control technique where the feedforward signal is learned through repetition of a single task. As the name suggests, given a dynamic system operating on a finite time horizon with the same desired trajectory, ILC aims to iteratively construct the inverse image (or its approximation) of the desired trajectory to improve transient tracking. In the literature, ILC is often interpreted as feedback control in the iteration domain due to the fact that learning controllers use information from past trials to drive the tracking error towards zero. However, despite the significant body of literature and powerful features, ILC is yet to reach widespread adoption by the control community, due to several assumptions that restrict its generality when compared to feedback control. In this dissertation, we relax some of these assumptions, mainly the fundamental invariance assumption, and move from the idea of learning through repetition to two dimensional systems, specifically repetitive processes, that appear in the modeling of engineering applications such as additive manufacturing, and sketch out future research directions for increased practicality: We develop an L1 adaptive feedback control based ILC architecture for increased robustness, fast convergence, and high performance under time varying uncertainties and disturbances. Simulation studies of the behavior of this combined L1-ILC scheme under iteration varying uncertainties lead us to the robust stability analysis of iteration varying systems, where we show that these systems are guaranteed to be stable when the ILC update laws are designed to be robust, which can be done using existing methods from the literature. As a next step to the signal space approach adopted in the analysis of iteration varying systems, we shift the focus of our work to repetitive processes, and show that the exponential stability of a nonlinear repetitive system is equivalent to that of its linearization, and consequently uniform stability of the corresponding state space matrix.PhDElectrical Engineering: SystemsUniversity of Michigan, Horace H.

    Stabilization of positive switched systems with time-varying delays under asynchronous switching

    Get PDF
    This paper investigates the state feedback stabilization problem for a class of positive switched systems with time-varying delays under asynchronous switching in the frameworks of continuous-time and discrete-time dynamics. The so-called asynchronous switching means that the switches between the candidate controllers and system modes are asynchronous. By constructing an appropriate co-positive type Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and further allowing the functional to increase during the running time of active subsystems, sufficient conditions are provided to guarantee the exponential stability of the resulting closed-loop systems, and the corresponding controller gain matrices and admissible switching signals are presented. Finally, two illustrative examples are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed methods
