This monograph introduces a newly developed robust-control design technique for a wide class of continuous-time dynamical systems called the “attractive ellipsoid method.” Along with a coherent introduction to the proposed control design and related topics, the monograph studies nonlinear affine control systems in the presence of uncertainty and presents a constructive and easily implementable control strategy that guarantees certain stability properties. The authors discuss linear-style feedback control synthesis in the context of the above-mentioned systems. The development and physical implementation of high-performance robust-feedback controllers that work in the absence of complete information is addressed, with numerous examples to illustrate how to apply the attractive ellipsoid method to mechanical and electromechanical systems. While theorems are proved systematically, the emphasis is on understanding and applying the theory to real-world situations. Attractive Ellipsoids in Robust Control will appeal to undergraduate and graduate students with a background in modern systems theory as well as researchers in the fields of control engineering and applied mathematics.
Over the past few decades, there has been numerous research studies conducted involving the synchronization of dynamical systems with several theoretical studies and laboratory experimentations demonstrating the pivotal role for this phenomenon in secure communications. Chaos Synchronization and Cryptography for Secure Communications: Applications for Encryption explores the combination of ordinary and time delayed systems and their applications in cryptographic encoding. This innovative publication presents a critical mass of the most sought after research, providing relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research findings in this area of study.
This book deals with continuous time dynamic neural networks theory applied to the solution of basic problems in robust control theory, including identification, state space estimation (based on neuro-observers) and trajectory tracking. The plants to be identified and controlled are assumed to be a priori unknown but belonging to a given class containing internal unmodelled dynamics and external perturbations as well. The error stability analysis and the corresponding error bounds for different problems are presented. The effectiveness of the suggested approach is illustrated by its application to various controlled physical systems (robotic, chaotic, chemical, etc.).
The title of the book System, Structure and Control encompasses broad field of theory and applications of many different control approaches applied on different classes of dynamic systems. Output and state feedback control include among others robust control, optimal control or intelligent control methods such as fuzzy or neural network approach, dynamic systems are e.g. linear or nonlinear with or without time delay, fixed or uncertain, onedimensional or multidimensional. The applications cover all branches of human activities including any kind of industry, economics, biology, social sciences etc.
This "Robust Control" course consists of 25 lectures aimed at graduate students in Electrical and Mechanical Engineering. It focuses on how modern robust control theory addresses real-world problems. Robustness is defined by three requirements: the plant model may be inexact or uncertain, the system must handle external perturbations, and the controller should be simple for easy implementation. The course is divided into five parts: Mathematical Background and Linear Matrix Inequalities in Control Theory, Absolute Stability and H1-Control, Attractive Ellipsoid Method (AEM), Sliding Mode Control (SMC), and Engineering Examples. Topics include conditions for LMI solutions, Schur’s lemma extension, dynamic feedback controller design using AEM, robust control for time-delay systems, Sampled-Data and Quantized Output systems, SMC methods, and Absolute Stability analysis. This course complements existing resources and provides practical tools for feedback design.
