Feedback vibration control of a base-isolated building with delayed measurements using h<inf>&#x221E;</inf> techniques
2010
In this paper we address the problem of vibration reduction of buildings with delayed measurements, where the delays are time-varying and bounded. We focus on a convex optimization approach to the problem of state-feedback H ∞ control design. An appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and some free weighting matrices are used to establish some delay-range-dependent sufficient conditions for the design of desired controllers in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). The controller, which guarantees asymptotic stability and an H ∞ performance, simultaneously, for the closed-loop system of the structure, is then developed. The performance of the controller is evaluated through the simu…
Convergence rate of a relaxed inertial proximal algorithm for convex minimization
2018
International audience; In a Hilbert space setting, the authors recently introduced a general class of relaxed inertial proximal algorithms that aim to solve monotone inclusions. In this paper, we specialize this study in the case of non-smooth convex minimization problems. We obtain convergence rates for values which have similarities with the results based on the Nesterov accelerated gradient method. The joint adjustment of inertia, relaxation and proximal terms plays a central role. In doing so, we highlight inertial proximal algorithms that converge for general monotone inclusions, and which, in the case of convex minimization, give fast convergence rates of values in the worst case.
Joint Optimization of Sensor Selection and Routing for Distributed Estimation in Wireless Sensor Networks
2014
Avances recientes en redes inalámbricos de sensores (WSNs, Wireless Sensor Networks) han posibilitado que pequeños sensores, baratos y con recursos limitados tanto en sensado, comunicación, como en computación, sean desplegados a gran escala. En consecuencia, las WSNs pueden ofrecer diversos servicios en importantes aplicaciones para la sociedad. Entre las varias restricciones que aparecen en el diseño de WSNs, tales como la limitación en energía disponible, procesamiento y memoria, la limitación en energía es muy importante ya que en muchas aplicaciones (ej., monitorización remota de diferentes entornos, edificios administrativos, monitoreo del hábitat, los incendios forestales, la atenció…
Lower bound limit analysis by bem: Convex optimization problem and incremental approach
2013
Abstract The lower bound limit approach of the classical plasticity theory is rephrased using the Multidomain Symmetric Galerkin Boundary Element Method, under conditions of plane and initial strains, ideal plasticity and associated flow rule. The new formulation couples a multidomain procedure with nonlinear programming techniques and defines the self-equilibrium stress field by an equation involving all the substructures (bem-elements) of the discretized system. The analysis is performed in a canonical form as a convex optimization problem with quadratic constraints, in terms of discrete variables, and implemented using the Karnak.sGbem code coupled with the optimization toolbox by MatLab…
MACRO-ZONES SGBEM APPROACH FOR STATIC SHAKEDOWN ANALYSIS AS CONVEX OPTIMIZATION
2013
A new strategy utilizing the Multidomain SGBEM for rapidly performing shakedown analysis as a convex optimization problem has been shown in this paper. The present multidomain approach, called displacement method, makes it possible to consider step-wise physically and geometrically nonhomogeneous materials and to obtain a self-equilibrium stress equation regarding all the bem-elements of the structure. Since this equation includes influence coefficients, which characterize the input of the quadratic constraints, it provides a nonlinear optimization problem solved as a convex optimization problem. Furthermore, the strategy makes it possible to introduce a domain discretization exclusively of…
Predictive control of convex polyhedron LPV systems with Markov jumping parameters
2012
The problem of receding horizon predictive control of stochastic linear parameter varying systems is discussed. First, constant coefficient matrices are obtained at each vertex in the interior of linear parameter varying system, and then, by considering semi-definite programming constraints, weight coefficients between each vertex are calculated, and the equal coefficients matrices for the time variable system are obtained. Second, in the given receding horizon, for each mode sequence of the stochastic convex polyhedron linear parameter varying systems, the optimal control input sequences are designed in order to make the states into a terminal invariant set. Outside of the receding horizon…

2011
Author's version of an article published in the journal: IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems I: Regular Papers. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/tcsi.2011.2106090 The problem of robust mode-dependent delayed state feedback H ∞ control is investigated for a class of uncertain time-delay systems with Markovian switching parameters and mixed discrete, neutral, and distributed delays. Based on the LyapunovKrasovskii functional theory, new required sufficient conditions are established in terms of delay-dependent linear matrix inequalities for the stochastic stability and stabilization of the considered system using some free matrices. The desired control is …
