The path following problem of a ship sailing in restricted waters under wind effect is investigated based on Robust $H_{\infty}$ Guaranteed Cost Control (RHGCC). To design the controller, the ship maneuvering motion is modeled as a linear uncertain system with norm-bounded time-varying parametric uncertainty. To counteract the bank and wind effects, the integral of path error is augmented to the original system. Based on the extended linear uncertain system, sufficient conditions for existence of the RHGCC are given. To obtain an optimal robust $H_{\infty}$ guaranteed cost control law, a convex optimization problem with Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) constraints is formulated, which minimizes the guaranteed cost of the close-loop system and mitigates the effect of external disturbance on the performance output. Numerical simulations have confirmed the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed control strategy for the path following goal of a ship sailing in restricted waters under wind effect.

Design of a reliable control systems is investigated for a class of uncertain linear plants. The uncertainty considered here is for the ase of uncertainty in the system matrix. A decentralized control scheme with two observer-based feedback controllers is developed, and it is shown that the resulting closed-loop system is reliable in the sense that the control scheme provides guaranteed stability and $H_{\infty}$-norm bounded performance in the event of sensor and/or actuator failures as well as in the presence of parameter uncertainties. We observed that soft-type failures were additional exogenous inputs to the closed-loop system. As a results, the sensor and/or actuator failures can be tolerated in the design, which is achieved by extending the methodology developed in.

Let $1{\;}\leq{\;}p{\;}\infty{\;}and{\;}{\alpha}{\;}>{\;}-1$. If f is a holomorphic self-map of the open unit disc U of C with f(0) = 0, then the quantity $\int_U\;\{\frac{$\mid$f'(z)$\mid$}{1\;-\;$\mid$f(z)$\mid$^2}\}^p\;(1\;-\;$\mid$z$\mid$)^{\alpha+p}dxdy$ is equivalent to the operator norm of the composition operator $C_f{\;}:{\;}B{\;}\rightarrow{\;}A^{p,{\alpha}$ defined by $C_fh{\;}={\;}h{\;}\circ{\;}f{\;}-{\;}h(0)$, where B and $A^{p,{\alpha}$ are the Bloch space and the weighted Bergman space on U respectively.

Structural robustness refers to the ability of a structure to avoid disproportionate consequences to the original cause. Currently attentions focus on the concepts of structural robustness, and discussions on methods of robustness based structural design are rare. Firstly, taking basis in robust $H_{\infty}$ control theory, structural robustness is assessed by $H_{\infty}$ norm of the system transfer function. Then using the SIMP material model, robustness based design of grid structures is formulated as a continuum topology optimization problem, where the relative density of each element and structural robustness are considered as the design variable and the optimization objective respectively. Generalized elitist genetic algorithm is used to solve the optimization problem. As examples, robustness configurations of plane stress model and the rectangular hyperbolic shell model were obtained by robustness based structural design. Finally, two models of single-layer grid structures were designed by conventional and robustness based method respectively. Different interference scenarios were simulated by static and impact experiments, and robustness of the models were analyzed and compared. The results show that the $H_{\infty}$ structural robustness index can indicate whether the structural response is proportional to the original cause. Robustness based structural design improves structural robustness effectively, and it can provide a conceptual design in the initial stage of structural design.

This paper presents an output feedback controller design method for uncertain linear systems with sinusoidal disturbance of uncertain frequencies. The controller needs to compensate for the performance deterioration due to the uncertain frequencies of sinusoidal disturbance. To this end, we introduce a virtual system including the dynamics corresponding to the uncertain frequencies and design a controller which minimizes the output difference between the virtual system and the closed-loop system. In other words, the controller is designed so that the closed-loop system approximates the virtual system. The feedback controller is achieved by solving an LMI optimization problem involving a robust $H_{\infty}$ constraint. The advantages of the proposed design method are examined by comparing it with a design method that only minimizes the $H_{\infty}$ norm of the transfer function between the sinusoidal disturbance and the output. The proposed design method is applied to the track-following system of rewritable optical disk drives and is evaluated through an experiment.

This paper considers a robust decentralized $H_\infty$ control problem for uncertain large-scale interconnected systems. The uncertainties are assumed to be time-invariant, norm-bounded, and exist in subsystems. A design method based on the bounded real lemma is developed for a dynamic output feedback controller, which is reduced to a feasibility problem for a nonlinear matrix inequality (NMI). It is proposed to solve the NMI iteratively by the idea of homotopy, where some of the variables are fixed alternately on each iteration to reduce the NMI to a linear matrix inequality (LMI). A decentralized controller for the nominal system is computed first by imposing structural constraints on the coefficient matrices gradually. Then, the decentralized controller is modified again gradually to cope with the uncertainties. A given example shows the efficiency of this method.

This paper proposes an optimum, problematic design for structural and control systems, taking a 3-D truss structure as an example. The structure is subjected to initial static loads and time-varying disturbances. The structure is controlled by a state feedback H$_{\infty}$ controller which suppress the effects of disturbances. The design variables are the cross sectional areas of truss members. The structural objective function is the structural weight. For the control objective, we consider two types of performance indices, The first function represents the effect of the initial loads. The second function is the norm of the feedback gain, These objective functions are in conflict with each other but are transformed into one control objective by the weighting method. The structural objectives is treated as the constraint, By introducing the second control objective which considers the magnitude of the feedback gain, we can create a design to model errors.

This note addresses the problem of reliable (equation omitted) output-feedback control design for linear systems with actuator and/or sensor failures. An output feedback control design is proposed which stabilizes the plant and guarantees an (equation omitted)-norm bound on at-tenuation of augmented disturbances including all admissible actuator/sensor failures. Based on the linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, the output- feedback controller design method is constructed by formulating to LMIs that cover all failure cases. Ef-fectiveness of this controller is validated via a numerical example.

본 논문에서는 PID제어기를 이용해 외란이 존재하는 이차 시스템을 제어하는 경우 외란 제거와 최적제어가 동시에 될 수 있는 PID 파라메터를 면역 알고리즘을 통해 구하였다. 지금까지 면역알고리즘을 적용한 최적화 문제에서는 외란이 존재하는 시스템에 대한 적용 사례가 매우 적었다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 면역알고리즘이 외란이 존재하는 시스템에서 어떠한 성능을 가지는 알아보기 위하여 외란이 존재하는 이차 시스템에 적용하여 그 성능을 알아보았다. 외란제거를 위해 $H_\infty$-norm을 응용하여 제어시스템의 외란제거 조건들을 제시하고 이 조건들을 만족하는 PID 제어기를 설계하였다. 설계된 PID제어기의 최적 파라메터를 구하기 위해 면역 알고리즘을 적용하였고 최적 파라메터를 평가하기 위하여 ISE(integral of squared error)성능지수를 이용하여 만족할 만한 결과를 얻었다.

This paper addresses the synthesis of an iterative learning controller for a class of linear systems with norm-bounded parameter uncertainties. We take into account an iterative learning algorithm with current cycle feedback in order to achieve both robust convergence and robust stability. The synthesis problem of the developed iterative learning control (ILC) system is reformulated as the ${\gamma}$-suboptimal $H_{\infty}$ control problem via the linear fractional transformation (LFT). A sufficient convergence condition of the ILC system is presented in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Furthermore, the ILC system with fast convergence rate is constructed using a convex optimization technique with LMI constraints. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
