  2. 1. Analysis and Design of Hybrid Control Systems

    Author : Jörgen Malmborg; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Lyapunov theory; Mode switching; Multi-controllers; PID control; Simulation; Higher order sliding; Hybrid control; Sliding modes; Automation; robotics; control engineering; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

    Abstract : Different aspects of hybrid control systems are treated: analysis, simulation, design and implementation. A systematic methodology using extended Lyapunov theory for design of hybrid systems is developed. The methodology is based on conventional control designs in separate regions together with a switching strategy. READ MORE

  4. 2. Optimal Decisions with Limited Information

    Author : Ather Gattami; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; systems; numerical analysis; Computer science; Convex Optimization; Graph Theory; Team Decision Theory; Game Theory; control; Datalogi; numerisk analys; system; kontroll; Automation; robotics; control engineering; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis considers static and dynamic team decision problems in both stochastic and deterministic settings. The team problem is a cooperative game, where a number of players make up a team that tries to optimize a given cost induced by the uncertainty of nature. READ MORE

  5. 3. Nonlinear Control of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles : Systems With an Attitude

    Author : Marcus Greiff; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nonlinear Control; Lyapunov Methods; Aerospace; Aerial Vehicles; Output Feedback; Control Theory;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the general problem of controlling rigid-body systems through space, with a special focus on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Several promising UAV control algorithms have been developed over the past decades, enabling truly astounding feats of agility when combined with modern sensing technologies. READ MORE

  6. 4. Incremental and Hierarchical Deadlock-Free Control of Discrete Event Systems with Variables: A Symbolic and Inductive Approach
