Optimal control of HIV infection with a continuously-mutating viral population Tập 5 - Trang 4033-4038 vol.5 - 2002
J.J. Kutch, P. Gurfil
There has been much discussion in recent years devoted to determining the
optimal methodology for administering anti-viral medication therapies to fight
HIV infection. There are many reasons to seek such an optimal therapy, including
the minimization of drug toxicity and monetary cost. However, there is
increasing recognition that exposure to many anti-HIV medications produces
extremely rapid chan... hiện toàn bộ

Transition control using multiple adaptive models and an H-infinity controller design Tập 4 - Trang 2621-2626 vol.4 - 2002
Z. Tian, K.A. Hoo
By transition control, it is meant a type of control method that is employed
when the plant transitions from one operating state to another as a result of a
set point change. This work proposes and develops an intelligent adaptive
multiple model approach that simultaneously adapts the model and an H/sub /spl
infin// controller parameters. The method is demonstrated on a non-linear
chemical reactor... hiện toàn bộ

Development of a closed-loop testing method for a next-generation terminal area automation system Tập 2 - Trang 1325-1330 vol.2 - 2002
J.E. Robinson, D.R. Isaacson
A next-generation air traffic decision support tool, known as the active final
approach spacing tool (aFAST), will generate heading, speed and altitude
commands to achieve more precise separation of aircraft in the terminal area.
The techniques used to analyze the performance of earlier generation decision
support tools are not adequate to analyze the performance of aFAST. The paper
summarizes the... hiện toàn bộ

Disturbance rejection for nonlinear systems Tập 5 - Trang 3484-3489 vol.5 - 2002
Zongxuan Sun, Tsu-Chin Tsao
Tracking or rejection of unknown exogenous signals with known generating
dynamics is of major concern in feedback control design. Linear feedback control
based on the internal model principle achieves asymptotic performance for linear
systems with linear exogenous signal dynamics. This paper presents a control
design based on the internal model principle to track or reject nonlinear
exogenous sign... hiện toàn bộ

H/sub /spl infin// controller design for discrete-time fuzzy systems using fuzzy weighting-dependent Lyapunov functions Tập 4 - Trang 3252-3257 vol.4 - 2002
Doo Jin Choi, PooGyeon Park
For discrete-time Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy systems, we propose an H/sub /spl
infin// state-feedback fuzzy controller associated with a fuzzy
weighting-dependent Lyapunov function. In terms of parameterized linear matrix
inequalities (PLMIs), the controller employs not only the current-time but also
one-step-past information on the time-varying fuzzy weighting functions.
Appropriately selecting the... hiện toàn bộ

Direct RBF neural network control of a class of discrete-time non-affine nonlinear systems Tập 1 - Trang 424-429 vol.1
J. Zhang, S.S. Ge, T.H. Lee
Direct adaptive RBF NN control is presented for a class of discrete-time
single-input single-output non-affine nonlinear systems. An implicit function
theorem is used to prove the existence and uniqueness of the implicit desired
feedback control. Based on the input-output model, RBF neural networks are used
to emulate the implicit desired feedback control. The closed-loop is proven to
be semi-glob... hiện toàn bộ

The zero dynamics of nonlinear singular control systems Tập 5 - Trang 3564-3569 vol.5 - 2002
Wentao Wang, Xiaoping Liu, Jun Zhao
In this paper, the concept of zero dynamics is proposed for nonlinear singular
control systems. The zero dynamics algorithm is developed. Some properties of
this algorithm are discussed. An example is provided to illustrate the zero
dynamics algorithm.

Gantry crane control: a novel solution explored and extended Tập 1 - Trang 250-255 vol.1
W.J. O'Connor
Positioning a crane's swinging load, at the bottom end of a cable, by moving a
gantry trolley at the top, involves resolving the apparently conflicting demands
of exact load positioning and active swing damping. Proposed control strategies
to date have been open-ended, involving asymptotic approach to final rest
positions. By contrast, a new control strategy, assuming an idealised cable,
stops the... hiện toàn bộ

This paper present a genetic algorithm optimization approach to treat with the
low-order sub-optimal H/sub /spl infin// controller design problems described by
LMIs. The LMIs based low-order H/sub /spl infin// controller design problems can
be formulated as matrix rank minimization problem under LMIs constraint
conditions. Due to matrix rank minimization problem is a non-convex NP-hardness

Flat nonholonomic matching Tập 4 - Trang 2812-2817 vol.4 - 2002
D.V. Zenkov, A.M. Bloch, J.E. Marsden
In this paper we extend the matching technique to a class of nonholonomic
systems with symmetries. Assuming that the momentum equation defines an
integrable distribution, we introduce a family of reduced systems. The method of
controlled Lagrangians is then applied to these systems resulting in a smooth
stabilizing controller.
