ClawZ: Control Laws in Z
نویسندگان
چکیده
ClawZ is a prototype tool whose objective is to link the Simulink control engineering tool, from MathWorks, with the dialect of Z. It provides a bridge between the use of Simulink to define control law diagrams and a tool to formally prove compliance between Ada and Z. The tool has been used as part of the formal proof of a Non-linear Dynamic Inversion flight control system comprising 37 pages of diagrams, 45 pages of Z and 1200 lines of non-comment Ada.

Communication Systems in ClawZ
We investigate the use of ClawZ, a suite of tools for the verification of implementations of control laws, to construct formal models for control systems in the area of communications and signal-processing intensive applications. Whereas ClawZ has been successfully applied to verify control components in avionic systems, special requirements need to be identified and addressed to extend its use...
متن کاملZ-type control of populations for Lotka-Volterra model with exponential convergence.
The population control of the Lotka-Volterra model is one of the most important and widely investigated issues in mathematical ecology. In this study, assuming that birth rate is controllable and using the Z-type dynamic method, we develop Z-type control laws to drive the prey population and/or predator population to a desired state to keep species away from extinction and to improve ecosystem ...
متن کاملA Maximum Principle for Optimally Controlled Systems of Conservation Laws
We study a class of optimization problems of Mayer form, for the strictly hyperbolic nonlinear controlled system of conservation laws ut + [ F (u) ] x = h(t, x, u, z), where z = z(t, x) is the control variable. Introducing a family of “generalized cotangent vectors”, we derive necessary conditions for a solution û to be optimal, stated in the form of a Maximum Principle.
متن کاملGlobal Stabilization of Attitude Dynamics: SDRE-based Control Laws
The State-Dependant Riccati Equation method has been frequently used to design suboptimal controllers applied to nonlinear dynamic systems. Different methods for local stability analysis of SDRE controlled systems of order greater than two such as the attitude dynamics of a general rigid body have been extended in literature; however, it is still difficult to show global stability properties of...
متن کاملTime-Invariant State Feedback Control Laws for a Special Form of Underactuated Nonlinear Systems Using Linear State Bisection
Linear state bisection is introduced as a new method to find time-invariant state feedback control laws for a special form of underactuated nonlinear systems. The specialty of the systems considered is that every unactuated state should be coupled with at least two directly actuated states. The basic idea is based on bisecting actuated states and using linear combinations with adjustable parame...
