A new approach to control system design for systems containing sandwiched, uncertain, non-smooth friction is proposed. The method is based on a multi-state backstepping approach t...
This paper addresses the initial shift problem in iterative learning control with system relative degree. The tracking error caused by nonzero initial shift is detected when apply...
The predictive pole-placement control method introduced in this paper embeds the classical pole-placement state feedback design into a quadratic optimisation based model-predictiv...
In this paper we present various algorithms both for stability and performance analysis of discrete-time Piece-Wise Affine (PWA) systems. For stability, different classes of Lyapu...

For a dual-rate control system where the output sampling interval is an integer multiple of the control interval, we propose a model-based inferential control scheme which uses a ...
Repetitive control is useful if periodic disturbances act on a control system. Perfect (asymptotic) disturbance rejection is achieved if the period-time is exactly known. For thos...
Conventional MPC uses quadratic programming (QP) to minimise, on-line, a cost over n linearly constrained control moves. However, stability constraints often require the use of la...

In many practical cases, the identification of a system is done in closed loop with some controller. In this paper, we show that the internal stability of the resulting model, in ...
We present a formula for the extremes of the null controllable region of a general LTI discrete-time system with bounded inputs. For an nth order system with only real poles (not ...
In this note, the problem of minimal-order stabilization in the case where the plant is minimum phase is studied. A low bound on the order of stabilizers is derived and a set of m...
