closed-loop supply chain network design is a critical issue due to its impact on both economic and environmental performances of the supply chain. in this paper, we address the problem of designing a multi-echelon, multi-product and capacitated closed-loop supply chain network. first, a mixed-integer linear programming formulation is developed to maximize the total profit. the main contribution...

In this paper, the authors present a linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach to the strictly positive real (SPR) synthesis problem: find an output feedback K such that the closed-loop system T (s) is SPR. The authors establish that if no such constant output feedback K exists, then no dynamic output feedback with a proper transfer matrix exists to make the closed-loop system SPR. The existence ...

In this paper, first a new algorithm for pole assignment of closed-loop multi-variable controllable systems in a prescribed region of the z-plane is presented. Then, robust state feedback controllers are designed by implementing a neural fuzzy system for the placement of closed-loop poles of a controllable system in a prescribed region in the left-hand side of z-plane. A new method based on the...

The problem of robust state feedback design for a linear dynamical system with uncertain (interval) parameters is considered. The designed state feedback controller has to place all the coefficients of the closed loop system characteristic polynomial within assigned closed loop interval characteristic polynomial. A condition is derived using certain known facts about matrix minors and its chara...

For the solution of the multi-input pole placement problem we derive explicit formulas for the subspace from which the feedback gain matrix can be chosen and for the feedback gain as well as the eigenvector matrix of the closed-loop system. We discuss which Jordan structures can be assigned and also when diagonalizability can be achieved. Based on these formulas we study the conditioning of the...

For the solution of the single-input pole placement problem we derive explicit expressions for the feedback gain matrix as well as the eigenvector matrix of the closed-loop system. Based on these formulas we study the conditioning of the pole-placement problem in terms of perturbations in the data and show how the conditioning depends on the condition number of the closed loop eigenvector matri...

in this paper, firstly by using a mixed linear programming a new model of locating facilities with limited capacity is presented to design a closed-loop supply chain in a multi-product and multi-period mode. then, using a robust optimization approach, the proposed model decreases in non-deterministic expansion. the results show that the proposed model can handle facility capacity in a closed lo...

The tracking problem for continuous-time systems is investigated. It is assumed that the states of the systems are not available. An observer is firstly designed to estimate the states by using the H∞ method. The control action is consist of a state-feedback control, an integral component, and a feedforward loop. The linear-matrix-inequality region is used to constrain the eigenvalue location f...
