Nonlinear Systems Stability Analysis Lyapunov-Based Approach

New!

Discrete-Time Inverse Optimal Control for Nonlinear Systems Edgar N. Sanchez CINVESTAV, Unidad Guadalajara, Zapopan, Mexico

Fernando Ornelas-Tellez Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolas de Hidalgo, Morelia, Mexico

This book presents a novel inverse optimal control approach for stabilization and trajectory tracking of discrete-time nonlinear systems. This approach avoids the need to solve the associated Hamilton-JacobiBellman equation and minimizes a cost functional, resulting in efficient controllers. The book also proposes the use of recurrent neural networks to model discrete-time nonlinear systems. Combined with the inverse optimal control scheme, such models constitute a powerful tool to deal with uncertainties such as unmodeled dynamics and disturbances. Simulations illustrate the effectiveness of the synthesized controllers. Catalog no. K18856, April 2013, 268 pp. ISBN: 978-1-4665-8087-9, $159.95 / £99.00 Also available as an eBook

Tracking Control of Linear Systems Lyubomir T. Gruyitch

Seyed Kamaleddin Yadavar Nikravesh

University of Technology of Belfort-Montbéliard, France (retired)

Using a Lyapunov-based approach, this book introduces advanced tools for the stability analysis of nonlinear systems. It first discusses standard stability techniques and their shortcomings and then introduces recent developments in stability analysis that can improve the applicability of standard techniques. Finally, the book proposes the stability analysis of special classes of nonlinear systems. Coverage includes the stability of ordinary time-invariant differential equations and time-invariant systems as well as the stability analysis of time-delayed systems and fuzzy linguistic systems models. Catalog no. K16430, January 2013, 319 pp. ISBN: 978-1-4665-6928-7, $169.95 / £108.00 Also available as an eBook

The primary purpose of control is to force desired behavior in an unpredictable environment, under often-arbitrary disturbances and initial conditions. Thus tracking and tracking control synthesis are fundamental control issues. Surprisingly, however, tracking theory has not been well developed, and stability theory has dominated. This book presents the fundamentals of tracking theory for control systems. It introduces the full transfer function matrix, which changes the theory of linear dynamical and control systems and enables a novel synthesis of tracking control that works more effectively in real conditions.
