Linear flux observers for induction motors with quadratic Lyapunov certificates

2016

International audience; We propose a full order Linear Time-Varying (LTV) Luenberger observer for the rotor flux estimation of an induction motor. Introducing a suitable reduced-order Linear-Time-Invariant (LTI) system that is always observable and controllable, we show that any arbitrary LTI design and its quadratic Lyapunov certificates can be lifted to the higher-order original LTV dynamics obtaining the same certificates. As a result, we show that arbitrary global uniform exponential bounds can be imposed on the estimation error, regardless of the rotor speed. Then applying a suitable order reduction technique, we build a reduced observer providing the same guarantees. We also establish…

Adaptive neural state-feedback stabilizing controller for nonlinear systems with mismatched uncertainty

2014

In this paper, an adaptive neural network (NN) state-feedback controller for a class of nonlinear systems with mismatched uncertainties is presented. By using a radial basis (RBF) neural network, a bound of unknown nonlinear functions is approximated so that no information about the upper bound of mismatched uncertainties is required. The state-feedback is based on Lyapunov stability theory, and it is shown that the asymptotic convergence of the closed-loop system to zero is achieved while maintaining bounded states at the same time. The presented methods are more general than the previous approaches, handling systems with no restriction on the dimension of the system and the number of inpu…

Faults diagnosis based on proportional integral observer for TS fuzzy model with unmeasurable premise variable

2014

In this work, we focus on the synthesis of a Proportional Integral (PI) observer for the actuators and sensors faults diagnosis based on Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy model with unmeasurable premise variables. The faults estimation method is based on the assumption that these faults act as unknown inputs under polynomials form whose their kth derivatives are bounded. The convergence conditions of the observer as well as the faults reconstruction are established on the basis of the Lyapunov stability theory and the L 2 optimization technique, expressed as Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMI) constraints. In order to validate the proposed approach, a hydraulic system with two tanks is proposed.

Convergence Properties of Genuine Bernstein–Durrmeyer Operators

2018

The genuine Bernstein–Durrmeyer operators have notable approximation properties, and many papers have been written on them. In this paper, we introduce a modified genuine Bernstein–Durrmeyer operators. Some approximation results, which include local approximation, error estimation in terms of the modulus of continuity and weighted approximation is obtained. Also, a quantitative Voronovskaya-type approximation will be studied. The convergence of these operators to certain functions is shown by illustrative graphics using MAPLE algorithms.

On the generalized directed rural postman problem

2014

The generalized directed rural postman problem (GDRPP) is a generic type of arc routing problem. In the present paper, it is described how many types of practically relevant single-vehicle routing problems can be modelled as GDRPPs. This demonstrates the versatility of the GDRPP and its importance as a unified model for postman problems. In addition, an exact and a heuristic solution method are presented. Computational experiments using two large sets of benchmark instances are performed. The results show high solution quality and thus demonstrate the practical usefulness of the approach.

Electronic structure calculations with GPAW: a real-space implementation of the projector augmented-wave method.

2011

Electronic structure calculations have become an indispensable tool in many areas of materials science and quantum chemistry. Even though the Kohn-Sham formulation of the density-functional theory (DFT) simplifies the many-body problem significantly, one is still confronted with several numerical challenges. In this article we present the projector augmented-wave (PAW) method as implemented in the GPAW program package (https://wiki.fysik.dtu.dk/gpaw) using a uniform real-space grid representation of the electronic wavefunctions. Compared to more traditional plane wave or localized basis set approaches, real-space grids offer several advantages, most notably good computational scalability an…

Dielectric-loaded plasmonic waveguide components: Going practical

2013

Surface plasmon propagating modes supported by metal/dielectric interfaces in various configurations can be used for radiation guiding similarly to conventional dielectric waveguides. Plasmonic waveguides offer two attractive features: subdiffraction mode confinement and the presence of conducting elements at the mode-field maximum. The first feature can be exploited to realize ultrahigh density of nanophotonics components, whereas the second feature enables the development of dynamic components controlling the plasmon propagation with ultralow signals, minimizing heat dissipation in switching elements. While the first feature is yet to be brought close to the domain of practical applicatio…

Stick-slip and convergence of feedback-controlled systems with Coulomb friction

2020

An analysis of stick-slip behavior and convergence of trajectories in the feedback-controlled motion systems with discontinuous Coulomb friction is provided. A closed-form parameter-dependent stiction region, around an invariant equilibrium set, is proved to be always reachable and globally attractive. It is shown that only asymptotic convergence can be achieved, with at least one but mostly an infinite number of consecutive stick-slip cycles, independent of the initial conditions. Theoretical developments are supported by a number of numerical results with dedicated convergence examples.
