Barbalat’S Lemma

In several open and closed-loop systems, the trajectories converge to a region instead of an equilibrium point. Identifying the convergence region and proving the asymptotic convergence upon arbitrarily large initial values of the state variables are regarded as important issues. In this work, the convergence of the trajectories of a biological process is determined and proved via truncated functions and Barbalat’s Lemma, while a simple and systematic procedure is provided. The state variables of the process asymptotically converge to a compact set instead of an equilibrium point, with asymmetrical bounds of the compact sets. This convergence is rigorously proved by using asymmetric forms with vertex truncation for each state variable and the Barbalat’s lemma. This includes the definition of the truncated V i functions and the arrangement of its time derivative in terms of truncated functions. The proposed truncated function is different from the common one as it accounts for the model nonlinearities and the asymmetry of the vanishment region. The convergence analysis is valid for arbitrarily large initial values of the state variables, and arbitrarily large size of the convergence regions. The positive invariant nature of the convergence regions is proved. Simulations confirm the findings.

Abstract The problem of zeroing of the state variables in fractional descriptor electrical circuits by state-feedbacks is formulated and solved. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of gain matrices such that the state variables of closed-loop systems are zero for time greater zero are established. The procedure of choice of the gain matrices is demonstrated on simple descriptor electrical circuits with regular pencils

The basic purpose of the present paper is to propose an extended investigation and computer analysis of an anti-parallel memristor circuit with two equivalent memristor elements with different initial values of the state variables using a modified Boundary Condition Memristor (BCM) Model and the finite differences method. The memristor circuit is investigated for sinusoidal supply current at different magnitudes – for soft-switching and hard-switching modes, respectively. The influence of the initial values of the state variables on the circuit’s behaviour is presented as well. The equivalent i-v and memristance-flux and the other important relationshipsof the memristor circuit are also analyzed.

This paper proposes a new composite observer capable of estimating the states and unknown (or changing) parameters of a chemical process, using some input-output measurements, the phenomenological based model and other available knowledge about the process. The proposed composite observer contains a classic observer (CO) to estimate the state variables, an observer-based estimator (OBE) to obtain the actual values of the unknown or changing parameters needed to tune the CO, and an asymptotic observer (AO) to estimate the states needed as input to the OBE. The proposed structure was applied to a CSTR model with three state variables. With the proposed structure, the concentration of reactants and other CSTR parameters can be estimated on-line if the reactor and jacket temperatures are known. The procedure for the design of the proposed structure is simple and guarantees observer convergence. In addition, the convergence speed of state and parameter estimation can be adjusted independently.

Robust Observer

In this study, a novel robust observer-based adaptive controller was formulated for systems represented by second-order input–output dynamics with unknown second state, and it was applied to concentration tracking in a chemical reactor. By using dead-zone Lyapunov functions and adaptive backstepping method, an improved control law was derived, exhibiting faster response to changes in the output tracking error while avoiding input chattering and providing robustness to uncertain model terms. Moreover, a state observer was formulated for estimating the unknown state. The main contributions with respect to closely related designs are (i) the control law, the update law and the observer equations involve no discontinuous signals; (ii) it is guaranteed that the developed controller leads to the convergence of the tracking error to a compact set whose width is user-defined, and it does not depend on upper bounds of model terms, state variables or disturbances; and (iii) the control law exhibits a fast response to changes in the tracking error, whereas the control effort can be reduced through the controller parameters. Finally, the effectiveness of the developed controller is illustrated by the simulation of concentration tracking in a stirred chemical reactor.

The direct determination of the steady state response for linear time invariant (LTI) systems modeled by multibond graphs is presented. Firstly, a multiport junction structure of a multibond graph in an integral causality assignment (MBGI) to get the state space of the system is introduced. By assigning a derivative causality to the multiport storage elements, the multibond graph in a derivative causality (MBGD) is proposed. Based on this MBGD, a theorem to obtain the steady state response is presented. Two case studies to get the steady state of the state variables are applied. Both cases are modeled by multibond graphs, and the symbolic determination of the steady state is obtained. The simulation results using the 20-SIM software are numerically verified.

Abstract If in the right-hand sides of given differential equations occur discontinuities in the state variables, then the natural notion of a solution is the one in the sense of Filippov. In our paper, we will consider this type of solutions for vector Dirichlet problems. The obtained theorems deal with the existence and localization of Filippov solutions, under effective growth restrictions. Two illustrative examples are supplied.

Internal Variable Theory

AbstractIn the kinetic rate laws of internal variables, it is usually assumed that the rates of internal variables depend on the conjugate forces of the internal variables and the state variables. The dependence on the conjugate force has been fully addressed around flow potential functions. The kinetic rate laws can be formulated with two potential functions, the free energy function and the flow potential function. The dependence on the state variables has not been well addressed. Motivated by the previous study on the asymptotic stability of the internal variable theory by J. R. Rice, the thermodynamic significance of the dependence on the state variables is addressed in this paper. It is shown in this paper that the kinetic rate laws can be formulated by one extended potential function defined in an extended state space if the rates of internal variables do not depend explicitly on the internal variables. The extended state space is spanned by the state variables and the rate of internal variables. Furthermore, if the rates of internal variables do not depend explicitly on state variables, an extended Gibbs equation can be established based on the extended potential function, from which all constitutive equations can be recovered. This work may be considered as a certain Lagrangian formulation of the internal variable theory.

The Difference

As the performance of digital devices is improving, Hardware-In-the-Loop (HIL) techniques are being increasingly used. HIL systems are frequently implemented using FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Array) as they allow faster calculations and therefore smaller simulation steps. As the simulation step is reduced, the incremental values for the state variables are reduced proportionally, increasing the difference between the current value of the state variable and its increments. This difference can lead to numerical resolution issues when both magnitudes cannot be stored simultaneously in the state variable. FPGA-based HIL systems generally use 32-bit floating-point due to hardware and timing restrictions but they may suffer from these resolution problems. This paper explores the limits of 32-bit floating-point arithmetics in the context of hardware-in-the-loop systems, and how a larger format can be used to avoid resolution problems. The consequences in terms of hardware resources and running frequency are also explored. Although the conclusions reached in this work can be applied to any digital device, they can be directly used in the field of FPGAs, where the designer can easily use custom floating-point arithmetics.

For a class of uncertain generalized discrete linear system with norm-bounded parameter uncertainties, the state feedback robust control problem is studied. One sufficient condition for the solvability of the problem and the state feedback robust controller are obtained in terms of linear matrix inequalities. The designed controller guarantees that the closed-loop systems is regular, causal, stable and satisfies a prescribed norm bounded constraint for all admissible uncertain parameters under some conditions. The result of the normal discrete system can be regarded as a particular form of our conclusion. A simulation example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Strapdown Inertial Navigation

In this paper, performance of the initial fine alignment for the stationary nonleveling strapdown inertial navigation system (SDINS) containing low-grade gyros is analyzed. First, the observability is analyzed by conducting a rank test of an observability matrix and by investigating the normalized error covariance of the extended Kalman filter based on the ten-state model. The results show that the accelerometer biases on horizontal axes are unobservable. Second, the steady-state estimation errors of the state variables are derived using the observability equation. It is verified that the estimates of the state variables have errors due to the unobservable state variables and nonleveling attitude angles of a vehicle containing the SDINS. Especially, this paper shows that the larger the attitude angles of the vehicle are, the greater the estimation errors are. Finally, it is shown that the performance of the eight-state model excluding the two unobservable state variables is better than that of the ten-state model in the fine alignment by a Monte Carlo simulation.
