Abstract The aim of this project is to develop new theoretical conditions to cope with control design of dynamical systems under uncertainty. Problems related to stability analysis, performance, filtering and synthesis of controllers will be investigated. Particular attention will be given to time-varying parameters, nonlinearities in the model and new fields of application for control design. The methodology is based on parameter-dependent Lyapunov functions and optimization problems described in terms of linear matrix inequalities. To illustrate the results, numerical simulations will be performed in control design problems for large scale systems (decentralized control), flexible structures, autonomous unmanned vehicles, robotics, smart structures, etc. (AU) | |
