Reduced order modelling for spatial-temporal temperature and property estimation in a multi-stage hot sheet metal forming process
Daniel Kloeser, Juri Martschin, Thomas Meurer +1
A concise approach is proposed to determine a reduced order control design oriented dynamical model of a multi-stage hot sheet metal forming process starting from a high-dimensiona…
Finite-dimensional output stabilization for a class of linear distributed parameter systems -- a small-gain approach
Lars Grüne, Thomas Meurer
A small-gain approach is proposed to analyze closed-loop stability of linear diffusion-reaction systems under finite-dimensional observer-based state feedback control. For this, th…
Flatness-based MPC for underactuated surface vessels in confined areas
Simon Helling, Max Lutz, Thomas Meurer
A two-phase model predictive controller (MPC) is proposed for underactuated surface vessel operation in confined environments. For general driving maneuvers (phase one) the ship's…
On the Dual Implementation of Collision-Avoidance Constraints in Path-Following MPC for Underactuated Surface Vessels
Simon Helling, Christian Roduner, Thomas Meurer
A path-following collision-avoidance model predictive control (MPC) method is proposed which approximates obstacle shapes as convex polygons. Collision-avoidance is ensured by mean…
Optimal Trajectory Planning and Model Predictive Control of Underactuated Marine Surface Vessels using a Flatness-Based Approach
Max Lutz, Thomas Meurer
This paper demonstrates a refined approach to solving dynamic optimization problems for underactuated marine surface vessels. To this end the differential flatness of a mathematica…
Robust nonlinear observer design based on impulsive dissipativity
A. Schaum, P. Feketa, T. Meurer +1
The paper considers the design of a nonlinear dissipative impulsive observer based on non-periodic discrete-time measurements. Sufficient conditions are derived for (i) exponential…
Stability of cluster formations in adaptive Kuramoto networks
Petro Feketa, Alexander Schaum, Thomas Meurer
This paper studies stability properties of multi-cluster formations in Kuramoto networks with adaptive coupling. Sufficient conditions for the local asymptotic stability of the cor…
PDE-based multi-agent formation control using flatness and backstepping: analysis, design and robot experiments
Gerhard Freudenthaler, Thomas Meurer
A PDE-based control concept is developed to deploy a multi-agent system into desired formation profiles. The dynamic model is based on a coupled linear, time-variant parabolic dist…
Synchronization and multi-cluster capabilities of oscillatory networks with adaptive coupling
Petro Feketa, Alexander Schaum, Thomas Meurer
We prove the existence of a multi-dimensional non-trivial invariant toroidal manifold for the Kuramoto network with adaptive coupling. The constructed invariant manifold correspond…
Synchronization of nonlinearly coupled networks of Chua oscillators
Petro Feketa, Alexander Schaum, Thomas Meurer +2
The paper develops new sufficient conditions for synchronization of a network of nonlinearly coupled Chua oscillators interconnected via the first state coordinate only. The no…
