Data-driven control of input saturated systems: a LMI-based approach
Federico Porcari, Valentina Breschi, Luca Zaccarian +1
This paper addresses three complex control challenges related to input-saturated systems from a data-driven perspective. Unlike the traditional two-stage process involving system i…
Hybrid coupling rules for leaderless heterogeneous oscillators: uniform global asymptotic and finite-time synchronization
Simone Mariano, Riccardo Bertollo, Romain Postoyan +1
We investigate the engineering scenario where the objective is to synchronize heterogeneous oscillators in a distributed fashion. The internal dynamics of each oscillator are gener…
Anti-windup coordination strategy around a fair equilibrium in resource sharing networks
Felix Agner, Pauline Kergus, Anders Rantzer +2
This paper aims at coordinating interconnected agents where the control input of each agent is limited by the control input of others. In that sense, the systems have to share a li…
Equivalent Conditions for the Synchronization of Identical Linear Systems over Arbitrary Interconnections
Nicola Zaupa, Giulia Giordano, Isabelle Queinnec +2
We propose necessary and sufficient conditions for the synchronization of identical single-input-single-output (SISO) systems, connected through a directed graph {without impos…
Finite-time stability properties of Lur'e systems with piecewise continuous nonlinearities
Simone Mariano, Romain Postoyan, Luca Zaccarian
We analyze the stability properties of Lur'e systems with piecewise continuous nonlinearities by exploiting the notion of set-valued Lie derivative for Lur'e-Postnikov Lyapunov fun…
Distributed Hybrid Observer With Prescribed Convergence Rate for a Linear Plant Using Multi-Hop Decomposition
Riccardo Bertollo, Pablo Millán, Luis Orihuela +2
With a continuous-time formulation of the multihop decomposition, we propose a distributed hybrid observer for a sensor network where the plant and local observers run in continuou…
Nonpathological ISS-Lyapunov Functions for Interconnected Differential Inclusions
Matteo Della Rossa, Aneel Tanwani, Luca Zaccarian
This article concerns robustness analysis for interconnections of two dynamical systems (described by upper semicontinuous differential inclusions) using a generalized notion of de…
Nonlinear modeling and feedback control of boom barrier automation
Daniel Cunico, Angelo Cenedese, Luca Zaccarian +1
We address modeling and control of a gate access automation system. A model of the mechatronic system is derived and identified. Then an approximate explicit feedback linearization…
Piecewise structure of Lyapunov functions and densely checked decrease conditions for hybrid systems
Matteo Della Rossa, Rafal Goebel, Aneel Tanwani +1
We propose a class of locally Lipschitz functions with piecewise structure for use as Lyapunov functions for hybrid dynamical systems. Subject to some regularity of the dynamics, w…
Max-Min Lyapunov Functions for Switched Systems and Related Differential Inclusions
Matteo Della Rossa, Aneel Tanwani, Luca Zaccarian
Starting from a finite family of continuously differentiable positive definite functions, we study conditions under which a function obtained by max-min combinations is a Lyapunov…
Hierarchical non-linear control for multi-rotor asymptotic stabilization based on zero-moment direction
Giulia Michieletto, Angelo Cenedese, Luca Zaccarian +1
We consider the hovering control problem for a class of multi-rotor aerial platforms with generically oriented propellers. Given the intrinsically coupled translational and rotatio…
Dynamic attitude planning for trajectory tracking in underactuated VTOL UAVs
Davide Invernizzi, Marco Lovera, Luca Zaccarian
This paper addresses the trajectory tracking control problem for underactuated VTOL UAVs. According to the different actuation mechanisms, the most common UAV platforms can achieve…
Reduction Theorems for Hybrid Dynamical Systems
Manfredi Maggiore, Mario Sassano, Luca Zaccarian
This paper presents reduction theorems for stability, attractivity, and asymptotic stability of compact subsets of the state space of a hybrid dynamical system. Given two closed se…

Andrea Bisoffi, Mauro Da Lio, Andrew R. Teel +1
We propose a model for representing a point mass subject to Coulomb friction in feedback with a PID controller, based on a differential inclusion comprising all the possible magnit…

Simone Formentin, Fabrizio Dabbene, Roberto Tempo +2
In this paper, we introduce a significant extension, called scenario with certificates (SwC), of the so-called scenario approach for uncertain optimization problems. This extension…
Event-triggered transmission for linear control over communication channels
Fulvio Forni, Sergio Galeani, Dragan Nesic +1
We consider an exponentially stable closed loop interconnection of a continuous linear plant and a continuous linear controller, and we study the problem of interconnecting the pla…

Sergio Galeani, Didier Henrion, Alain Jacquemard +1
We consider the design problem for a Marx generator electrical network, a pulsed power generator. The engineering specification of the design is that a suitable resonance condition…
