A bounded positive non-linear PI control law for double-pipe heat exchangers
— In this work, a PI-type control scheme for the outlet temperature regulation of double-pipe heat exchangers is proposed. Compared to previously proposed approaches, the algorit...

Extension and application of a novel hardware-in-the-loop simulator design methodology
— This paper builds on previous work on optimal methodologies for the design of numerical subsystems for non-linear, uncertain hardware-in-the-loop (HWIL) simulators. Firstly, th...

A passive 2DOF walker: Finding gait cycles using virtual holonomic constraints
— A planar compass-like biped on a shallow slope is the simplest model of a passive walker. It is a two-degrees-offreedom impulsive mechanical system known to possess periodic so...

Motion planning for nonlinear systems using hybridizations and robust controllers on simplices
— In this paper, we consider a motion planning problem for a class of constrained nonlinear systems. In each simplex of a triangulation of the set of states, the nonlinear dynami...

General duality between optimal control and estimation
— Optimal control and estimation are dual in the LQG setting, as Kalman discovered, however this duality has proven difficult to extend beyond LQG. Here we obtain a more natural...
