One solves for stationary points of the payoff as a function of inputs, a task which is significantly different from that in optimal control problems. Both a dynamic programming principle (DPP) and a Hamilton-Jacobi partial differential equation (HJ PDE) are obtained for a class of problems subsuming the stationary-action formulation. Although convexity (or concavity) of the payoff may be lost as one propagates forward, stationary points continue to exist, and one must be able to use the DPP and/or HJ PDE to solve forward to such time horizons. In linear/quadratic models, this leads to a requirement for propagation of solutions of differential Riccati equations past finite escape times. Such propagation is also required in (nonlinear) n-body problem formulations where the potential is represented via semiconvex duality.","PeriodicalId":193106,"journal":{"name":"SIAM Conf. on Control and its Applications","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116614391","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such constraints arise naturally in the context of distributed control systems, typically consisting of multiple agents with only local communication between the various agents. We obtain topological necessary conditions for the existence of such a stabilizing feedback control law when the submanifold to be stabilized to is even-dimensional; these topological conditions are expressed in terms of the generators of the homology groups of certain topological spaces naturally associated with the control problem, as well as the topology of the submanifold to which stabilization is to be performed.","PeriodicalId":193106,"journal":{"name":"SIAM Conf. on Control and its Applications","volume":"22 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120894308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They are usually formulated as optimization problems and the accuracy of their solutions depends not only on the chosen optimization scheme but also on the given data. The problem of collecting data in the “best way” in order to assure a statistically efficient estimate of the parameter is known as Optimal Design. In this work we consider the problem of finding optimal locations for source identification in the 3D unit sphere from data on its boundary. We apply three different optimal design criteria to this 3D problem: the Incremental Generalized Sensitivity Function (IGSF), the classical D-optimal criterion and the SE-criterion recently introduced in [3]. The estimation of the parameters is then obtained by means of the Ordinary Least Square procedure. In order to analyze the performance of each strategy, the data are numerically simulated and the estimated values are compared with the values used for simulation.","PeriodicalId":193106,"journal":{"name":"SIAM Conf. on Control and its Applications","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127170543","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The soft landing requires accurate control of the actuators moving element between two desired positions. We present here two nonlinear adaptive controllers to solve the problem of robust trajectory tracking for the moving element. The first controller is based on classical nonlinear adaptive technique. We show that this controller ensures bounded tracking errors of the reference trajectories and bounded estimation error of the uncertain parameters. Second, we present a controller based on the so-called Input-to-State Stability (ISS), merged with gradient descent estimation filters to estimate the uncertain parameters. We show that it ensures bounded tracking errors for bounded estimation errors, furthermore, due to the ISS results we conclude that the tracking errors bounds decrease as function of the estimation errors. We demonstrate the effectiveness of these controllers on a simulation example.","PeriodicalId":193106,"journal":{"name":"SIAM Conf. on Control and its Applications","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126709196","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We consider some well-established pole placement methods for systems without delay that utilise pole placement via state feedback in order to achieve their desired performance objective. We explore the extent to which their desired control performance objective may be successfully achieved for a time-delay system by placing the primary poles of the delayed system at the same locations as for the system without delay. The role of the secondary poles of the time-delay system will also be investigated since they are known to affect both the stability and performance.","PeriodicalId":193106,"journal":{"name":"SIAM Conf. on Control and its Applications","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129824168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
