Data-Driven Control Synthesis using Koopman Operator: A Robust Approach

Alireza Karimi, Mert Eyuboglu, Nathan Russell Powell

This paper proposes a data-driven control design method for nonlinear systems that builds upon the Koopman operator framework. In particular, the Koopman operator is used to lift the nonlinear dynamics to a higher-dimensional space where the so-called obse ...

Data-driven IQC-Based Robust Control Design for Hybrid Micro-disturbance Isolation Platform

Alireza Karimi, Vaibhav Gupta, Elias Sebastian Klauser

A novel approach for robust controller synthesis, which models uncertainty as an elliptical set, is proposed in the paper. Given a set of frequency response functions of linear time-invariant (LTI) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, the approac ...

Achieving Optimal Performance With Data-Driven Frequency-Based Control Synthesis Methods

Alireza Karimi, Philippe Louis Schuchert

Frequency Response Function (FRF)-based control synthesis methods for Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) systems have been widely used in control theory and industry. Recently, there has been renewed interest in these methods, employing numerical optimization too ...

Fast ion generation with ICRF waves and beams in the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator

Mike Machielsen

The largest operating stellarator, Wendelstein 7-X, is of the quasi-isodynamic type. For this design to scale up to a fusion reactor, several criteria must be met, one of them being good fast ion confinement. The latter still has to be tested experimentall ...

On Consensusability of Linear Interconnected Multi-Agent Systems and Simultaneous Stabilization

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate, Mustafa Sahin Turan, Liang Xu

Consensusability of multi-agent systems (MASs) certifies the existence of a distributed controller capable of driving the states of each subsystem to a consensus value. We study the consensusability of linear interconnected MASs (LIMASs) where, as in sever ...

Shortest-support multi-spline bases for generalized sampling

Michaël Unser, Alexis Marie Frederic Goujon, Shayan Aziznejad, Alireza Naderi

Generalized sampling consists in the recovery of a function f, from the samples of the responses of a collection of linear shift-invariant systems to the input f . The reconstructed function is typically a member of a finitely generated integer-shift invar ...

Advanced methods for Brillouin based distributed optical fiber sensors

Simon Adrien Zaslawski

After more than thirty years of continuous research and development, the performances of conventional Brillouin based distributed optical fiber sensors (DOFS) are now peaking, as they are facing fundamental barriers that restrict the power of the light inj ...

A Data-Driven Fault Location Algorithm Based on the Electromagnetic Time Reversal in Mismatched Media

Mario Paolone, Zhaoyang Wang, Zhe Chen

The classical electromagnetic time reversal (EMTR) fault location method in power systems can be time consuming, especially when a high location accuracy is desired. To cope with this issue, the concept of EMTR in mismatched media has recently been introdu ...

A Note on BIBO Stability

Michaël Unser

The statements on the BIBO stability of continuoustime convolution systems found in engineering textbooks are often either too vague (because of lack of hypotheses) or mathematically incorrect. What is more troubling is that they usually exclude the identi ...

A Vibrational Technique for in vitro Intraoperative Prosthesis Fixation Monitoring

Kamiar Aminian, Hooman Dejnabadi, Seyed Abdolmajid Yousefsani

Objective: In this paper, a new vibrational modal analysis technique was developed for intraoperative cementless prosthesis fixation evaluation upon hammering. Methods: An artificial bone (Sawbones)-prosthesis system was excited by sweeping of a sine signa ...
