  • Formation and Containment Control for High-order Linear Swarm Systems

    by Xiwang Dong ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book focuses on analysis and design problems for high-order linear time-invariant (LTI) swarm systems (multi-agent systems) to achieve consensus, formation, containment and formation-containment. As a first step, the concepts of practical consensus and formation-containment are introduced. Unlike previous research, the formation in this book can be time-varying. A general framework for ...

  • Nonlinear Model Predictive Control

    Theory and Algorithms

    by Lars Grüne, Jürgen Pannek ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    Nonlinear Model Predictive Control is a thorough and rigorous introduction to nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) for discrete-time and sampled-data systems. NMPC is interpreted as an approximation of infinite-horizon optimal control so that important properties like closed-loop stability, inverse optimality and suboptimality can be derived in a uniform manner. These results are complemented ... Read more

  • Dynamics and Control of Lorentz-Augmented Spacecraft Relative Motion

    by Ye Yan, Yueneng Yang, Xu Huang ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book develops a dynamical model of the orbital motion of Lorentz spacecraft in both unperturbed and J2-perturbed environments. It explicitly discusses three kinds of typical space missions involving relative orbital control: spacecraft hovering, rendezvous, and formation flying. Subsequently, it puts forward designs for both open-loop and closed-loop control schemes propelled or augmented by ... Read more

  • Lasso-MPC – Predictive Control with ℓ1-Regularised Least Squares

    by Marco Gallieri ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This thesis proposes a novel Model Predictive Control (MPC) strategy, which modifies the usual MPC cost function in order to achieve a desirable sparse actuation. It features an ℓ1-regularised least squares loss function, in which the control error variance competes with the sum of input channels magnitude (or slew rate) over the whole horizon length. While standard control techniques lead to ... Read more
