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

Stability analysis for reconfigurable systems with actuator saturation Tập 6 - Trang 4783-4788 vol.6 - 2002
A. Bateman, D. Ward, J. Monaco
Discusses a combined analytic and simulation-based approach to assessing the
stability of a control law in a system that may be subject to actuator
saturation due to failures and subsequent reconfiguration. The analysis is based
on linearized plant dynamics, a linearized state-feedback description of the
nonlinear controller dynamics, and a nonlinear actuator model. For systems of
this type, a met... hiện toàn bộ

Stability testing for systems with polynomial uncertainty Tập 5 - Trang 3896-3901 vol.5 - 2002
M.S. Fadali
We develop a new stability tests for systems with one uncertain parameter and
with polynomial uncertainty structure. The test is derived using the resultant
determinant for the real and imaginary parts of the polynomial evaluated on the
imaginary axis. The resultant determinant is a function of the uncertain
parameter as well as frequency. We evaluate the determinant using a known
algorithm then t... hiện toàn bộ

Input design for on-line system identification of a human respiratory system Tập 5 - Trang 3661-3665 vol.5 - 2002
M.P. Schoen
An efficient implementation of input design for on-line system identification is
presented. The optimal input is calculated recursively based on the imminent
available information content in the inverse correlation matrix of the data. The
new input is computed one step ahead of time with a predictive filter so that it
will increase the information content in the inverse correlation matrix. A

Development of a smart mass flow sensor based on adaptive notch filtering and frequency domain identification Tập 6 - Trang 4359-4364 vol.6 - 2002
K. Maertens, J. Schoukens, K. Deprez, J. De Baerdemaeker
A popular method for measuring mass flows of granular materials is to register
the induced force on a circular chute. When properly designed, an accurate,
friction independent and linear flow measurement is achieved, ready to install
in agricultural machinery or process lines. Since this type of sensor is
strongly subject to wear and is installed in inaccessible places, it is
important to know whe... hiện toàn bộ
