Abstract

The aim of this work is to present a unified approach to the modern field of control theory and to provide a technique for making problems involving deterministic, stochastic, and adaptive processes of both linear and nonlinear type amenable to machine solution. Mr. Bellman has used the theory of dynamic programming to formulate, analyze, and prepare these processes for numerical treatment by digital computers. The unique concept of the book is that of a single problem stretching from recognition and formulation to analytic treatment and computational solution. Due to the emphasis upon ideas and concepts, this book is equally suited for the pure and applied mathematician, and for control engineers in all fields.Originally published in 1961.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Abstract

Some of the most common dynamic phenomena that arise in engineering practice—actuator and sensor delays—fall outside the scope of standard finite-dimensional system theory. The first attempt at infinite-dimensional feedback design in the field of control systems—the Smith predictor—has remained limited to linear finite-dimensional plants over the last five decades. Shedding light on new opportunities in predictor feedback, this book significantly broadens the set of techniques available to a mathematician or engineer working on delay systems. The book is a collection of tools and techniques that make predictor feedback ideas applicable to nonlinear systems, systems modeled by PDEs, systems with highly uncertain or completely unknown input/output delays, and systems whose actuator or sensor dynamics are modeled by more general hyperbolic or parabolic PDEs, rather than by pure delay. Specific features and topics include: * A construction of explicit Lyapunov functionals, which can be used in control design or stability analysis, leading to a resolution of several long-standing problems in predictor feedback. * A detailed treatment of individual classes of problems—nonlinear ODEs, parabolic PDEs, first-order hyperbolic PDEs, second-order hyperbolic PDEs, known time-varying delays, unknown constant delays—will help the reader master the techniques presented. * Numerous examples ease a student new to delay systems into the topic. * Minimal prerequisites: the basics of function spaces and Lyapunov theory for ODEs. * The basics of Poincaré and Agmon inequalities, Lyapunov and input-to-state stability, parameter projection for adaptive control, and Bessel functions are summarized in appendices for the reader’s convenience. Delay Compensation for Nonlinear, Adaptive, and PDE Systems is an excellent reference for graduate students, researchers, and practitioners in mathematics, systems control, as well as chemical, mechanical, electrical, computer, aerospace, and civil/structural engineering. Parts of the book may be used in graduate courses on general distributed parameter systems, linear delay systems, PDEs, nonlinear control, state estimator and observers, adaptive control, robust control, or linear time-varying systems.

Abstract

Discontinuous control systems are one of the most important and oldest types of nonlinear systems; however, the available methods of analysis of their input-output properties are based on the approximate describing function method, which narrows the application of existing techniques to systems having good low-pass filtering properties. This book provides new insight on the problem of closed-loop performance and oscillations in discontinuous control systems, covering the class of systems that do not necessarily have low-pass filtering properties. The author provides a practical, yet rigorous and exact approach to analysis and design of discontinuous control systems via application of a novel frequency-domain tool: the locus of a perturbed relay system (LPRS). LPRS theory is presented in detail beginning with basic concepts and progressing to computing formulas, algorithms, and MATLAB® code. As a result of LPRS properties such as exactness, simplicity, and convenience, many problems of analysis and design of discontinuous systems are solved easily by using the theory described. Presented are a number of practical examples applying the theory to analysis and design of discontinuous control systems from various branches of engineering, including electro-mechanical systems, process control, and electronics. A few chapters of the book are devoted to frequency-domain theory of sliding mode control, which is presented as a special type of discontinuous control. LPRS analysis of the effects of chattering and nonideal closed-loop performance in sliding mode systems having parasitic dynamics, as well as the relationship of those effects with the ideal sliding mode, are given. Discontinuous Control Systems is intended for readers who have knowledge of linear control theory and will be of interest to graduate students, researchers, and practicing engineers involved in systems analysis and design.
