Consequently, it is often necessary to identify and account for the delays when, e.g., designing a model-based control strategy. However, identifying delays in differential equations is not straightforward and requires specialized methods. Furthermore, existing approaches for identifying <em>distributed</em> time delays in delay differential equations (DDEs) require that the functional form of the involved kernel (also called memory function) is known. In this work, we propose an algorithm for identifying distributed delays, which does not require a priori knowledge of the kernel. Specifically, we 1) approximate the unknown kernel in the DDEs by the probability density function of a mixed Erlang distribution and 2) use the linear chain trick (LCT) to transform the resulting DDEs into ODEs. Finally, the parameters in the kernel approximation are estimated as the solution to a dynamical maximum likelihood problem, and we use a single-shooting approach to approximate this solution. We demonstrate the efficacy of the algorithm using a numerical example that involves a point reactor kinetics model of a molten salt nuclear fission reactor.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55413,"journal":{"name":"Automatica","volume":"178 ","pages":"Article 112382"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144107684","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We assume that we measure the state on a given spatial subdomain during certain time intervals, while we measure the state on the remaining spatial subdomain during the remaining time intervals. We assign a feedback law at the boundary of the spatial domain and force to zero the value of the state at the junction of the two subdomains. Throughout the study, the equation’s destabilizing coefficient is assumed to be unknown and possibly space dependent but bounded. As a result, adaptive boundary controllers are designed under different assumptions on the perturbation. In particular, we guarantee input-to-state stability (ISS) when an upperbound on the perturbation’s size is known. Otherwise, only global uniform ultimate boundedness (GUUB) is guaranteed. In contrast, when the state is measured at every spatial point all the time (full state measurement), convergence to an arbitrarily-small neighborhood of the origin is guaranteed, even if the perturbation’s maximal size is unknown.

This article presents a new nonlinear filter named the fractional Kalman filter (FKF) for high robustness against linearization errors of both the time and the measurement updates. Based on the Bayesian theory and Gaussian assumption, an optimal fractional Gaussian filter (OFGF) is developed by maximizing the posterior PDFs, which consists of three basic steps namely time update, fractional measurement update and fractional state fusion. Specifically, the prior probability density function (PDF) and the likelihood function are factored into <span><math><mi>N</mi></math></span> parts with fractional exponents, which increases the <em>overlapping area</em> of the prior and the likelihood distributions for linearization improvement. With the OFGF and the Kullback–Leibler divergence (KLD) analysis, the FKF is developed by a deterministic sampling-based linearization for approximation of means and covariances. From the performance analysis, it reveals that the risk of destroying the stabilities of both the time update and the measurement update is reduced by introducing the fractional exponents.
