The optimal control of a class of discrete multivariable nonlinear systems given by: xk+1 = a (xk) + B (xk) uk, yk = C xk, is analyzed. A closed-loop structure is obtained with the proposed performance index. The addition of numerical integrators to the output error and the design of an optimal control law for the resultant augmented system lead to a very robust control structure. The performance of this control law is evaluated by applying it to a simulated continuous culture fermentation process.

A robust output feedback controller is synthesized for minimum phase multivariable nonlinear systems based on thedifferential geometry approach. Using the internal model control structure within the input-output (I/O) linearizationframework, the controller is combined with a closed-loop observer to estimate transformed states in the outer-loop. It isshown that the controller-observer combination achieves robust tracking and estimation using simple tuningparameters. The effectiveness of the proposed system is illustrated by a simulation example for control of concentrationin a chemical reactor.

In this study, based on the policy iteration (PI) in reinforcement learning (RL), an optimal adaptive control approach is established to solve robust control problems of nonlinear systems with internal and input uncertainties. First, the robust control is converted into solving an optimal control containing a nominal or auxiliary system with a predefined performance index. It is demonstrated that the optimal control law enables the considered system globally asymptotically stable for all admissible uncertainties. Second, based on the Bellman optimality principle, the online PI algorithms are proposed to calculate robust controllers for the matched and the mismatched uncertain systems. The approximate structure of the robust control law is obtained by approximating the optimal cost function with neural network in PI algorithms. Finally, in order to illustrate the availability of the proposed algorithm and theoretical results, some numerical examples are provided.

In this paper, we use the definition of control Lyapunov functions to study finite time inverse optimal control for affine nonlinear systems. Based on control Lyapunov functions, a finite time universal control formula is presented, which can ensure the closed-loop system is finite time stable. From this, less conservative conditions for the finite time inverse optimal control are derived. We design a finite time inverse optimal control law, which minimizes the cost functional. A numerical example verifies the validity of the proposed method.

Abstract This paper considers a nonlinear suboptimal control problem for a near-space hypersonic vehicle's (NSHV's) attitude dynamics. The least-square and stable manifold methods first solve an unconstrained approximately optimal control law corresponding to the nonlinear attitude model. Then, to further meet the dynamic performance requirement of the attitude control system, a novel strategy based on the Koopman operator, symplectic geometric theory, and the stable manifold theorem is proposed to approximate the eigenvalues of the closed-loop nonlinear unconstrained approximated optimal control system. The weight matrices in the optimal performance index, which directly determine the output responses of the nonlinear attitude dynamics, can be appropriately designed according to the eigenvalues. The final control law considers the actuator constraints. The NSHV's closed-loop attitude control system is proved to be locally exponentially stable, and the suboptimality of the control law is analyzed. Numerical simulation demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

This paper presents a new approach for tuning PID controller parameters in the control of nonlinear systems. The design is based on optimal tracking of step response for nonlinear systems. The problem is first restated as a non linear optimal control infinite horizon problem, then with a suitable change of variable, the time interval is transferred to the finite horizon [0 1). This change of variable, poses a time varying problem. This problem is then transferred to measure space, and it is shown that an optimal measure must be determined which is equivalent to a linear programming problem with infinite dimension. Then, using finite horizon approximations, the optimal control law as piece wise constant function is determined. Finally, PID controller parameters are Determined using the optimal control law. Simulations are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed methodology.
