For differentially flat systems, this task can be solved analytically if the initial conditions of all system states are consistent with the desired output trajectories. However, exact analytical solutions are not possible if the initial conditions are contradictory with desired output profiles or if non-flat outputs are specified for systems with complex nonlinearities in the state equations and the systems' input characteristics. For that reason, strategies based on the computation of differential sensitivities are investigated in this contribution to find approximate solutions for the tracking control problem. In contrast to classical output feedback structures, the proposed algorithm is capable of both providing dynamic feedforward and feedback control strategies. Selected application scenarios are presented to highlight the applicability of the suggested procedure which is based on the computation of the required partial derivatives online with the help of operator overloading techniques provided by algorithmic differentiation.","PeriodicalId":336219,"journal":{"name":"2010 15th International Conference on Methods and Models in Automation and Robotics","volume":"112 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133359728","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 homogenization method consists in relaxing the original problem thereby extending the set of admissible structures to composite shapes. From the numerical viewpoint, an important asset of the homogenization method with respect to traditional geometrical optimization is that the computed optimal shape is quite independent from the initial guess (at least for the compliance minimization problem). Nevertheless, the optimal shape being a composite, a post-treatement is needed in order to produce an almost optimal non-composite (i.e. workable) shape. The classical approach consists in penalizing the intermediate densities of material, but the obtained result deeply depends on the underlying mesh used and the level of details is not controllable. In a previous work, we proposed a new post-treatement method for the compliance minimization problem of an elastic structure. The main idea is to approximate the optimal composite shape with a locally periodic composite and to build a sequence of genuine shapes converging toward this composite structure. This method allows us to balance the level of details of the final shape and its optimality. Nevertheless, it was restricted to particular optimal shapes, depending on the topological structure of the lattice describing the arrangement of the holes of the composite. In this article, we lift this restriction in order to extend our method to any optimal composite structure for the compliance minimization problem.","PeriodicalId":336219,"journal":{"name":"2010 15th International Conference on Methods and Models in Automation and Robotics","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116926592","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}

It is assumed that a nonlinear object dynamics (model structure) is (partially) unknown and some of its nonlinear characteristics can be approximated by a sort of functional approximators. It has been proven that a nonlinear state feedback plus parameter adaptation are able to ensure its asymptotic stability. The proposed controller design is based on modified adaptive backstepping method. In this approach, as opposite to the standard backstepping, the design process has been reduced to a single iteration, which enables avoiding complicated recursive procedure. An extra task here is to find a control synthesis of linear-like, chained system. The solution of the last problem in general framework is also presented. The obtained thereby controller has several attractive features of both the feedback linearization and backstepping schemes.","PeriodicalId":336219,"journal":{"name":"2010 15th International Conference on Methods and Models in Automation and Robotics","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131084522","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}
