Determination of optimal feedback terminal controllers for general boundary conditions using generating functions
Given a nonlinear system and a performance index to be minimized, we present a general approach to expressing the finite time optimal feedback control law applicable to different ...

H2 control of preview systems
The H2-optimal controller for systems with preview, in which the knowledge of external input is available in advance for the controller, is derived. The single input case is first...

Stability of a rate control system with averaged feedback and network delay
We study the stability of a variant of Kelly's rate control scheme in a simple setting with a single flow and a single resource. The feedback signal from the resource is a fun...

Nonlinear robust performance analysis using complex-step gradient approximation
In this paper, the complex-step method is applied in the setting of numerical optimisation problems involving dynamical systems modelled as nonlinear differential equations. The m...

Optimization over state feedback policies for robust control with constraints
This paper is concerned with the optimal control of linear discrete-time systems, which are subject to unknown but bounded state disturbances and mixed constraints on the state an...

State and unknown input estimation for linear discrete-time systems
: This paper deals with a new type of estimator for discrete-time linear systems with unknown inputs. A constructive algorithm is given in order to analyze the state observability ...

A stochastic control model of economic growth with environmental disaster prevention
This paper proposes a capital accumulation model with a random stopping time corresponding to the occurrence of an environmental catastrophe. Depending on the preventive capital s...

PI control of discrete linear repetitive processes
Repetitive processes are a distinct class of 2D systems (i.e. information propagation in two independent directions) of both systems theoretic and applications interest. They cann...

On admissible pairs and equivalent feedback - Youla parameterization in iterative learning control
This paper revisits a well-known synthesis problem in iterative learning control, where the objective is to optimize a performance criterion over a class of causal iterations. The...
