This paper presents a Model Predictive Control (MPC) scheme for nonlinear continuous time systems where an extra performance index, which is not a measure of the distance to the set point, is introduced to influence the transient behavior of the controlled ...
In this paper, a convex set of fixed-order H-infinity and H2 dynamic output-feedback controllers for continuous-time systems with polytopic uncertainty is proposed. This approach is based on the use of some instrumental stable matrices, which operate as a ...
The Multi-Parametric Toolbox is a col- lection of algorithms for modeling, control, analysis, and deployment of constrained optimal controllers developed under Matlab. It features a powerful ge- ometric library that extends the application of the toolbox b ...
We introduce an event driven communication logic for decentralized control of a network of robotic vehicles (agents). The strategy proposed is robust to packet losses and drives the vehicles to predefined paths while holding a desired geometric formation p ...
In this paper we propose a novel partition-based state estimator for linear discrete-time systems composed of physically coupled subsystems affected by bounded disturbances. The proposed scheme is distributed in the sense that each local state estimator ex ...
We propose a suitable model reduction paradigm -- the certied reduced basis method (RB) -- for the rapid and reliable solution of parametrized optimal control problems governed by partial dierential equations (PDEs). In particular, we develop the methodolo ...

We describe a framework for analyzing probabilistic reachability and safety problems for discrete time stochastic hybrid systems within a dynamic games setting. In particular, we consider finite horizon zero-sum stochastic games in which a control has the ...
The Virtual Reference Feedback Tuning (VRFT) approach is a design method that allow optimal feedback control laws to be derived from input-output (I/O) data only, without need of a model of the process. A drawback of this methods is that, in its standard f ...
This paper presents a vector control strategy for regulating the current of grid-tied voltage source converters (VSCs) in a rotating reference frame. The proposed approach is based on shaping the open-loop and closed-loop transfer matrices of the system. S ...

In this paper, a data-driven approach is proposed to tune fixed-order controllers for unknown stable LTI plants in a mixed-sensitivity loop-shaping framework. The method requires a single set of input-output samples and it is based on convex optimization t ...
