A LQG control design technique for LPV systems using single Lyapunov function is improved by searching for a parameter-dependent Lyapunov function in order to enhance the LQG performance of the control. Such a design technique has not been developed in the LQG framework so far (in the authors knowledge), albeit its adaptability to performance degradation on the parameter region enlarges the cla...

The need for reliable predictions in environmental modelling is well-known. Particularly, the predicted weather and meteorological information about the future atmospheric state is crucial and necessary for almost all other areas of environmental modelling. Additionally, right decisions to prevent damages and save lives could be taken depending on a reliable meteorological prediction process. L...

Semi-active base isolation system has been proposed mainly to mitigate the base drift of isolated structures while in most cases, its application causes the maximum acceleration of superstructure to be increased. In this paper, designing optimal semi-active base isolation system composed of linear base isolation system with low damping and magneto-rheological (MR) damper has been studied for co...
