In this paper, a structural feedback linearization technique is proposed. This is a quite simple and effective linear control scheme based on failure detection techniques. Our proposed linear control approach is intended ...

This paper addresses the problem of robust control for a class of nonlinear dynamical systems in the continuous time domain. We deal with nonlinear models described by differential algebraic equations (DAEs) in the presence ...

This paper presents a direct method based on Legendre-Radau pseudospectral method for efficient and accurate solution of a class of singular optimal control problems. In this scheme, based on a priori knowledge of control, ...

This paper deals with a new theoretic approach to a specific interaction of continuous and discrete dynamics in switched control systems known as a Zeno dynamics. We study executions of switched control systems with affine ...

This paper studies optimal control processes governed by a specific family of systems described by functional differential equations (FDEs) involving the sup-operator. Systems evolving with the state suprema constitute a ...

This paper discusses a novel implementable approach to an exact linearization procedure based on the implicit systems techniques. The formal procedure we propose includes a specific “splitting” of the nonlinear state ...

This paper deals with a constrained LQ-type optimal control problem (OCP) in the presence of fixed levels input restrictions. We consider control processes governed by linear differential equations with a priori known ...

This paper proposes a new theoretic approach to a specific interaction of continuous and discrete dynamics in switched control systems known as a Zeno behaviour. We study executions of switched control systems with affine ...

This chapter studies a singular case of Optimal Control Problems(OCPs) governed by a class of switched control systems. We proposea new mathematical formalism for this type of switched dynamic systemsand study OCPs with a ...
