Spatiotemporal Fuzzy-Observer-based Feedback Control for Networked Parabolic PDE Systems
Assisted by the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model- based nonlinear control technique, nonlinear spatiotemporal feedback compensators are proposed in this article for exponential stabilization of parabolic partial differential dynamic systems with measurement outputs transmitted over a communication network. More specifically, an approximate T-S fuzzy partial differential equation (PDE) model with C∞-smooth membership functions is constructed to describe the complex spatiotemporal dynamics of the nonlinear partial differential systems, and its approximation capability is analyzed via the uniform approximation theorem on a real separable Hilbert space. A spatiotemporally asynchronous sampled-data measurement output equation is proposed to model the transmission process of networked measurement outputs. By the approximate T-S fuzzy PDE model, fuzzy-observer-based nonlinear continuous-time and sampled- data feedback compensators are constructed via the spatiotemporally asynchronous sampled-data measurement outputs. Given that sufficient conditions presented in terms of linear matrix inequalities are satisfied, the suggested fuzzy compensators can exponentially stabilize the nonlinear system in the Lyapunov sense. Simulation results are presented to show the effectiveness and merit of the suggested spatiotemporal fuzzy compensators
Proceedings of the Workshop on Applications of Distributed System Theory to the Control of Large Space Structures
Two general themes in the control of large space structures are addressed: control theory for distributed parameter systems and distributed control for systems requiring spatially-distributed multipoint sensing and actuation. Topics include modeling and control, stabilization, and estimation and identification
Generalized averaged Gaussian quadrature and applications
A simple numerical method for constructing the optimal generalized averaged Gaussian quadrature formulas will be presented. These formulas exist in many cases in which real positive GaussKronrod formulas do not exist, and can be used as an adequate alternative in order to estimate the error of a Gaussian rule. We also investigate the conditions under which the optimal averaged Gaussian quadrature formulas and their truncated variants are internal
MS FT-2-2 7 Orthogonal polynomials and quadrature: Theory, computation, and applications
Quadrature rules find many applications in science and engineering. Their analysis is a classical area of applied mathematics and continues to attract considerable attention. This seminar brings together speakers with expertise in a large variety of quadrature rules. It is the aim of the seminar to provide an overview of recent developments in the analysis of quadrature rules. The computation of error estimates and novel applications also are described
