Inverse Optimal Cardano-Lyapunov Feedback for PDEs with Convection

no code implementations30 Mar 2024 Mohamed Camil Belhadjoudja, Miroslav Krstic, Mohamed Maghenem, Emmanuel Witrant

In particular, we consider some classes of partial differential equations (PDEs) with quadratic convection and counter-convection, for which the L2 norm is a control Lyapunov function (CLF) whose derivative has either a depressed cubic or a quadratic dependence in the boundary control input.

Gain-Only Neural Operator Approximators of PDE Backstepping Controllers

no code implementations28 Mar 2024 Rafael Vazquez, Miroslav Krstic

For the recently introduced deep learning-powered approach to PDE backstepping control, we present an advancement applicable across all the results developed thus far: approximating the control gain function only (a function of one variable), rather than the entire kernel function of the backstepping transformation (a function of two variables).

We propose the first generalization of Sontag s universal controller to systems not affine in the control, particularly, to PDEs with boundary actuation.

Our first contribution is the development of initial steps towards a MATLAB toolbox dedicated to backstepping kernel computation.

Moreover, we consider no-slip boundary conditions on the tangential velocity at the top and bottom walls of the channel, and normal velocity actuation at the top and bottom walls.

Adaptive Neural-Operator Backstepping Control of a Benchmark Hyperbolic PDE

1 code implementation15 Jan 2024 Maxence Lamarque, Luke Bhan, Yuanyuan Shi, Miroslav Krstic

This requires an adaptive approach to PDE control, i. e., an estimation of the plant coefficients conducted concurrently with control, where a separate PDE for the gain kernel must be solved at each timestep upon the update in the plant coefficient function estimate.

Moving-Horizon Estimators for Hyperbolic and Parabolic PDEs in 1-D

no code implementations4 Jan 2024 Luke Bhan, Yuanyuan Shi, Iasson Karafyllis, Miroslav Krstic, James B. Rawlings

In the paper we provide explicit formulae for MHEs for both hyperbolic and parabolic PDEs, as well as simulation results that illustrate theoretically guaranteed convergence of the MHEs.

Gain Scheduling with a Neural Operator for a Transport PDE with Nonlinear Recirculation

1 code implementation4 Jan 2024 Maxence Lamarque, Luke Bhan, Rafael Vazquez, Miroslav Krstic

The recently introduced neural operators (NO) can be trained to produce the gain functions, rapidly in real time, for each state value, without requiring a PDE solution.

The result is semiglobal and practical, for a map that is quadratic in the distance from the source.

1 code implementation21 Jul 2023 Jie Qi, Jing Zhang, Miroslav Krstic

The recently introduced DeepONet operator-learning framework for PDE control is extended from the results for basic hyperbolic and parabolic PDEs to an advanced hyperbolic class that involves delays on both the state and the system output or input.

The constant convergence time is achieved due to a dependence of the feedback gain of the initial state of the system.

The designs of gains for controllers and observers for PDEs, such as PDE backstepping, are mappings of system model functions into gain functions.

Neural Operators for Bypassing Gain and Control Computations in PDE Backstepping

1 code implementation28 Feb 2023 Luke Bhan, Yuanyuan Shi, Miroslav Krstic

While, in the existing PDE backstepping, finding the gain kernel requires (one offline) solution to an integral equation, the neural operator (NO) approach we propose learns the mapping from the functional coefficients of the plant PDE to the kernel function by employing a sufficiently high number of offline numerical solutions to the kernel integral equation, for a large enough number of the PDE model's different functional coefficients.

Simultaneous Lane-Keeping and Obstacle Avoidance by Combining Model Predictive Control and Control Barrier Functions

no code implementations13 Apr 2022 Sven Brüggemann, Drew Steeves, Miroslav Krstic

In this work, we combine {Model Predictive Control} (MPC) and Control Barrier Function (CBF) design {methods} to create a hierarchical control law for simultaneous lane-keeping (LK) and obstacle avoidance (OA): at the low level, MPC performs LK via trajectory tracking during nominal operation; and at the high level, different CBF-based safety filters that ensure both LK and OA are designed and compared across some practical scenarios.

Practical Prescribed-Time Seeking of a Repulsive Source by Unicycle Angular Velocity Tuning

no code implementations8 Apr 2022 Velimir Todorovski, Miroslav Krstic

Using the recently introduced time-varying feedback tools for prescribed-time stabilization, we achieve source seeking in prescribed time, i. e., the convergence to a small but bounded neighborhood of the source, without the measurements of the position and velocity of the unicycle, in as short a time as the user desires, starting from an arbitrary distance from the source.

Fixed-Time Nash Equilibrium Seeking in Non-Cooperative Games

no code implementations23 Dec 2020 Jorge I. Poveda, Miroslav Krstic, Tamer Basar

We introduce a novel class of Nash equilibrium seeking dynamics for non-cooperative games with a finite number of players, where the convergence to the Nash equilibrium is bounded by a KL function with a settling time that can be upper bounded by a positive constant that is independent of the initial conditions of the players, and which can be prescribed a priori by the system designer.
