Of Chained Systems Authors: Enrico Valtolina, Alessandro Astolfi, Volume: 1, Page 1637 Paper number 701 Abstract: In the present work a discontinuous control law for chained systems of order n that yields global asymptotic regulation and local exponential stability in the sense of Lyapunov is proposed. As a consequence of the Lyapunov stability property the new control law assures robustness against the effect of (small) measurement noise and of external disturbances. Simulation results complement the theoretical developments. CD000701.PDF (From Author) TOP Phase Locking in the Mammalian Circadian Clock Authors: Joseph Miller, Wijesuriya P. Dayawansa, Peter Hallgren, Clyde F. Martin, Volume: 1, Page 1643 Paper number 702 Abstract: Existence of an internal timing mechanism in mammals has been well established and it is known that the circadian rhythm is generated in a bilateral structure contained in the hypothalamus called the Suprachaismatic Nucleus (SCN) consisting of 16,000 neurons. Individually, each SCN neuron behaves like a clock, and the ensemble of neurons are capable of producing well synchronized and phase locked clock signals with precise timing patterns. In this article, theory of Hopf bifurcations in the presence of symmetries, is used to explain the functionality and phase locking of the SCN from a systems theory viewpoint. CD000702.PDF (From Author) CD000702.PDF (Scanned) TOP Semiglobal Nonlinear Output Regulation with Adaptive Internal Model Authors: Andrea Serrani, Alberto Isidori, Volume: 1, Page 1649 Paper number 703 Abstract: We address the problem of output regulation for nonlinear systems driven by a linear, neutrally stable exosystem whose natural frequencies are not known a priori. We present a classical solution in terms of the parallel connection of a robust stabilizer and an internal model, where the latter is adaptively tuned to the device that reproduces the control required to maintain the output-zeroing condition. We obtain robust regulation (i.e. in presence of parameter uncertainties) with a semiglobal domain of convergence for a significant class of nonlinear minimum-phase system. CD000703.PDF (From Author) TOP Non-Smooth Stabilizers for Nonlinear Systems with Uncontrollable Unstable Linearization Authors: Chunjiang Qian, Wei Lin, Volume: 1, Page 1655 Paper number 704 Abstract: We prove that every chain of odd power integrators perturbed by a C^1 triangular vector field can be stabilized in the large via continuous state feedback, although it is not stabilizable, even locally, by any smooth state feedback. The proof is constructive and accomplished by developing a machinery---a continuous type of adding a power integrator---that enables one to explicitly design a C^0 globally stabilizing feedback law as well as a C^1 control Lyapunov function which is positive definite and proper. CD000704.PDF (From Author) TOP Calculus Of Nonlinear Interconnections With Applications Authors: Matthias Kawski, Volume: 1, Page 1661 Paper number 705 Abstract: This paper reports progress in the analysis of interconnections of nonlinear systems, employing the chronological formalism. A fundamental observation is the close analogy between feeding outputs of one system back as inputs to another system and the process of Lazard elimination which is at the root of Hall-Viennot bases and chronological products. Possible applications of the algebraic description of interconnections of systems include static and dynamic output feedback, and formal inversions of systems which are of interest for tracking problems. Our description in terms of iterated integral functionals is most readily applicable in the case of nilpotent systems, especially strictly triangular homogeneous systems. CD000705.PDF (From Author) CD000705.PDF (Scanned) TOP On The Use Of Dynamic Invariants And Forwarding For Swinging Up A Spheric Inverted Pendulum Authors: Xavier Albouy, Laurent Praly, Volume: 1, Page 1667 Paper number 706 Abstract: We design and implement a controller to swing up a spherical pendulum carried on by a three links robot arm. This controller is the patch of two linear controllers and a nonlinear one. The latter is based on energy and kinetic momentum assignment and relies in part on the forwarding design technique.
