Stochastic input-to-state stability of random impulsive nonlinear systems     

Zenghui Hu  Zhe Yang  Xiaowu Mu 《Journal of The Franklin Institute》2019,356(5):3030-3044

In this paper, the stochastic input-to-state stability is investigated for random impulsive nonlinear systems, in which impulses happen at random moments. Employing Lyapunov-based approach, sufficient conditions for the stochastic input-to-state stability are established based on the connection between the properties of system and impulsive intervals. Two classes of impulsive systems are considered: (1) the systems with single jump map; (2) the systems with multiple jump maps. Finally, some examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed results.  相似文献   

Fault detection of discrete-time delay Markovian jump systems with delay term modes partially available     

Guoliang Wang  Zhiqiang Li  Xin Miao  Qingling Zhang  Chunyu Yang 《Journal of The Franklin Institute》2019,356(5):3045-3071

This paper focuses on the fault detection problem for a class of discrete-time delay Markovian jump systems with delay term modes partially available. A crucial but general hypothesis considered here is there is a suitable and effective detector to provide a measurement signal of operation mode of delay term. The fault detection filter used as the residual generator could depend on the original system operation mode or the signal emitted from detector. Via minimizing the error between the residual and fault signal, the problem of fault detection and isolation (FDI) is converted into an H_∞ filtering problem and closely related to a probability representing the degree of dependence between the original and measurable signals. An improved Lyapunov function depending on such two operation modes is exploited to study the corresponding problems. Sufficient conditions for the existence of the desired FDI filter are presented in terms of LMIs. When such a probability is uncertain or partially unknown, similar problems are also considered. A practical example is used to demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed methods.  相似文献   

Distributed rotating formation control of second-order leader-following multi-agent systems with nonuniform delays     

Yi Huang  Yonggang Li  Wenfeng Hu 《Journal of The Franklin Institute》2019,356(5):3090-3101

In this paper, the leader-following rotating formation control problem is investigated for second-order multi-agent systems with nonuniform time-delays. We propose a distributed algorithm to drive all agents to achieve a desired formation and orbit around a common point. By a frequency domain analysis method, the upper bound of the maximum time-delay is obtained. Finally, a numerical simulation is given to illustrate the obtained results.  相似文献   

Static group synchronization of second-order multi-agent systems via pinning control     

Xiang-Gui Guo  Hong-Jian Li  Jun-Jie Zhao  Wei-Wei Che 《Journal of The Franklin Institute》2019,356(9):4842-4858

This paper investigates the expected static group synchronization problem of the second-order multi-agent systems via pinning control. For directed communication topology with spanning tree, based on Gershgorin disk theorem and the matrix property, a static pinning control protocol with fixed gains is first introduced and some sufficient and necessary static group synchronization criteria are also established. It is worth mentioning that a rigorous proof is also given that only one pinning node is needed to guarantee static group synchronization, which could be inferred that our protocol might be more economical and effective in large scale of multi-agent systems. Then, for weakly connected directed communication topology with nodes of zero in-degree, an adaptive pinning control applied to the node with zero in-degree is also proposed to achieve static group synchronization. Finally, the efficiency of the proposed protocols is verified by two simulation examples.  相似文献   

Distributed formation control for multiple quadrotor UAVs under Markovian switching topologies with partially unknown transition rates   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Zhen Zhou  Hongbin Wang  Yueling Wang  Xiaojun Xue  Mingquan Zhang 《Journal of The Franklin Institute》2019,356(11):5706-5728

This paper addresses distributed formation control for a group of quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) under Markovian switching topologies with partially unknown transition rates. Instead of the general stochastic topology, the graph is governed by a set of Markov chains to the edges, which can recover the traditional Markovian switching topologies in line with the practical communication network. Extended high gain observers (EHGOs) are constructed with a two-time-scale format to deal with the issue of nonlinear input coefficients, so that there could be a higher estimation precision of the system uncertainties. To impel multiple quadrotor UAVs to achieve a predesigned formation shape, a modified integral sliding mode (ISM) control protocol is proposed here with a multi-time-scale structure, which allows independent analysis of the dynamics in each time scale. The stability proof for the system state space origin is derived from the singular perturbation method and Lyapunov stability theory. In addition, the introduced ISM controller can deal with the time varying desired references with the bounded accelerations and is robust to the disturbances. Finally, simulations on six quadrotor UAVs are given to verify the effectiveness of the theoretical results.  相似文献   

Fault-tolerant control for a class of linear interconnected hyperbolic systems by boundary feedback     

Yongyuan Xu  Hao Yang  Bin Jiang 《Journal of The Franklin Institute》2019,356(11):5630-5651

This paper considers a fault-tolerant control problem for a class of interconnected linear hyperbolic partial differential equation systems. Both subsystem faults and coupling faults are considered. Firstly, the well-posedness of the faulty system is analyzed by using semigroup theory. Secondly, for the fault-free case, a stabilizing boundary feedback control based on small-gain theorem is proposed. Consequently, in the presence of faults, fault recoverability conditions are established that maintain the stability of the faulty systems. The fault-tolerant control strategies are also provided. A heat exchanger example is taken to illustrate the effectiveness and practicality of the proposed methods.  相似文献   

A novel general type-2 fuzzy controller for fractional-order multi-agent systems under unknown time-varying topology     

Ardashir Mohammadzadeh  Okyay Kaynak 《Journal of The Franklin Institute》2019,356(10):5151-5171

In this paper, a robust adaptive control scheme is proposed for the leader following control of a class of fractional-order multi-agent systems (FMAS). The asymptotic stability is shown by a linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach. The nonlinear dynamics of the agents are assumed to be unknown. Moreover, the communication topology among the agents is assumed to be unknown and time-varying. A deep general type-2 fuzzy system (DGT2FS) using restricted Boltzmann machine (RMB) and contrastive divergence (CD) learning algorithm is proposed to estimate uncertainties. The simulation studies presented indicate that the proposed control method results in good performance under time-varying topology, unknown dynamics and external disturbances. The effectiveness of the proposed DGT2FS is verified also on modeling problems with high dimensional real-world data sets.  相似文献   

Data-driven optimal switching of switched systems     

Minggang Gan  Chi Zhang  Jingang Zhao 《Journal of The Franklin Institute》2019,356(10):5193-5221

Switched systems are complicated due to the switching among the subsystems. When the subsystem models are unknown, control problems on switched systems turn to be more intractable. In this paper, the optimal switching problems are investigated for continuous-time switched autonomous systems with unknown dynamics and a finite-horizon cost function. Firstly, a novel data-driven optimal scheduling approach is proposed based on the estimated insertion gradients. Secondly, aiming at switched systems with a prescribed switching sequence, a data-driven optimal switching time approach is proposed based on the estimated derivatives of the cost with respect to the switching times. The two approaches take advantages of plenty state data containing necessary information instead of the system models. Furthermore, the errors of the approaches are analysed and bounded. Finally, simulation results of two examples are given to show the validity of the two approaches.  相似文献   

Formation control and collision avoidance for a class of multi-agent systems     

Yutong Liu  Hongjun Yu  Peng Shi  Cheng-Chew Lim 《Journal of The Franklin Institute》2019,356(10):5395-5420

In this paper, a control scheme is proposed for a group of elliptical agents to achieve a predefined formation. The agents are assumed to have the same dynamics, and communication among the agents are limited. The desired formation is realized based on the reference formation and the mapping decision. In the control design, searching algorithms for both cases of minimum distance and tangents are established for each agent and its neighbors. In order to avoid collision, an optimal path planning algorithm based on collision angles, and a self-center-based rotation algorithm are also proposed. Moreover, randomized method is used to provide the optimal mapping decision for the underlying system. Two examples and analyses are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness and potential of the new control scheme.  相似文献   

Moment matching model reduction for negative imaginary systems     

Lanlin Yu  Junlin Xiong 《Journal of The Franklin Institute》2019,356(4):2274-2293

In this paper, moment matching model reduction problem for negative imaginary systems is considered. For a given negative imaginary system with poles at the origin, our goal is to find a reduced-order negative imaginary system such that a prescribed number of the moments and the poles at the origin are preserved. Firstly, the original negative imaginary system is split into an asymptotically stable subsystem, a lossless negative imaginary subsystem and an average subsystem. Then, moment matching model reduction is implemented on the asymptotically stable subsystem and the lossless negative imaginary subsystem. The resulting reduced-order system preserves the negative imaginary structure and the poles at the origin. Also, the proposed model reduction method is extended to the positive real systems. Numerical examples demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model reduction method.  相似文献
