A stability-theory perspective to synchronisation of heterogeneous networks

Dans ce mémoire, nous faisons une présentation de nos recherches dans le domaine de la synchronisation des systèmes dynamiques interconnectés en réseau. Une des originalités de nos travaux est qu'ils portent sur les réseaux hétérogènes, c'est à dire, des systèmes à dynamiques diverses. Au centre du cadre d'analyse que nous proposons, nous introduisons le concept de dynamique émergente. Il s'agit d'une dynamique "moyennée'' propre au réseau lui-même. Sous l'hypothèse qu'il existe un attracteur pour cette dynamique, nous montrons que le problème de synchronisation se divise en deux problèmes duaux : la stabilité de l'attracteur et la convergence des trajectoires de chaque système vers celles générées par la dynamique émergente. Nous étudions aussi le cas particulier des oscillateurs de Stuart-Landau

Sliding Mode Control

The main objective of this monograph is to present a broad range of well worked out, recent application studies as well as theoretical contributions in the field of sliding mode control system analysis and design. The contributions presented here include new theoretical developments as well as successful applications of variable structure controllers primarily in the field of power electronics, electric drives and motion steering systems. They enrich the current state of the art, and motivate and encourage new ideas and solutions in the sliding mode control area

Proceedings of the ECCOMAS Thematic Conference on Multibody Dynamics 2015

This volume contains the full papers accepted for presentation at the ECCOMAS Thematic Conference on Multibody Dynamics 2015 held in the Barcelona School of Industrial Engineering, Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, on June 29 - July 2, 2015. The ECCOMAS Thematic Conference on Multibody Dynamics is an international meeting held once every two years in a European country. Continuing the very successful series of past conferences that have been organized in Lisbon (2003), Madrid (2005), Milan (2007), Warsaw (2009), Brussels (2011) and Zagreb (2013); this edition will once again serve as a meeting point for the international researchers, scientists and experts from academia, research laboratories and industry working in the area of multibody dynamics. Applications are related to many fields of contemporary engineering, such as vehicle and railway systems, aeronautical and space vehicles, robotic manipulators, mechatronic and autonomous systems, smart structures, biomechanical systems and nanotechnologies. The topics of the conference include, but are not restricted to: ● Formulations and Numerical Methods ● Efficient Methods and Real-Time Applications ● Flexible Multibody Dynamics ● Contact Dynamics and Constraints ● Multiphysics and Coupled Problems ● Control and Optimization ● Software Development and Computer Technology ● Aerospace and Maritime Applications ● Biomechanics ● Railroad Vehicle Dynamics ● Road Vehicle Dynamics ● Robotics ● Benchmark ProblemsPostprint (published version
