In this paper, a novel systematic design procedure is presented for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems. Such design procedure can remove the control input terms which contain the unknown nonlinearities as the control coefficients, and provides the following advantages: it not only avoids a possible singularity problem completely, but also simplifies the control design process. Moreover, the...

Since the 1990s, state-dependent Riccati equation (SDRE) strategies have emerged as general design methods that provide a systematic and effectivemeans of designing nonlinear controllers, observers and filters. These methods overcome many of the difficulties and shortcomings of existing methodologies, and deliver computationally simple algorithms that have been highly effective in a variety of ...

A novel MILP model for plantwide multiperiod optimization of byproduct gas supply system in the ironand steel-making process is proposed. Compared with the previous optimization model, proposed approach simultaneously optimizes the byproduct gasholder levels and gas distribution among con icting objectives. Both integer and continuous variables are used in determining the optimal fuel load cha...

In this paper, we integrate nonlinear control and supervisory control theory to design a controller of a heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) system. First we design the nonlinear controllers by Lyapunov theory and backstepping. Then we create the discrete abstraction of this system and thus derive the discrete event system model from the continuous plant. Finally we design the supe...

the colorado beetle, leptinotarsa decemlineata (say), is the major defoliating and exotic insect pest of potato plants and has caused serious problems in the east azerbaijan and ardabil regions of iran since emerging in the absence of natural native enemies. in the development of a suitable control strategy based on integrated pest management, it is important to recognize control methods that d...

Under the background of industrial production, standardized operation and efficient fashion design has become a predictable requirement. Systematic advocates integration concepts into process establishes theoretical basis systematic design. In this paper, based on innovation practice clothing enterprises, through creation style activities, simplify behavior rules enterprises design, make standa...

1. Extended Abstract Process systems engineering (PSE) has been traditionally concerned with the understanding and development of systematic procedures for the design, control, and operation of chemical process systems (Sargent, 1991). Computer aided process engineering (CAPE), like PSE, has been traditionally concerned with the development and solution of problems related to chemical process d...

Signal transduction networks of biological systems are highly complex. How to mathematically describe a signal transduction network by systematic approaches to further develop an appropriate and effective control strategy is attractive to control engineers. In this paper, the synergism and saturation system (S-systems) representations are used to describe signal transduction networks and a cont...
