Mixed-Integer Programming for Signal Temporal Logic with Fewer Binary Variables
Vince Kurtz, Hai Lin
Signal Temporal Logic (STL) provides a convenient way of encoding complex control objectives for robotic and cyber-physical systems. The state-of-the-art in trajectory synthesis fo…
On-line Estimation of Stability and Passivity Metrics
Shirantha Welikala, Hai Lin, Panos J. Antsaklis
We consider the problem of on-line evaluation of critical characteristic parameters such as the L_2-gain (L2G), input feedforward passivity index (IFP) and output feedback passivit…
Robust Approximate Simulation for Hierarchical Control of Piecewise Affine Systems under Bounded Disturbances
Zihao Song, Vince Kurtz, Shirantha Welikala +2
Piecewise affine (PWA) systems are widely applied in many practical cases such as the control of nonlinear systems and hybrid dynamics. However, most of the existing PWA control me…
PDE-based Dynamic Control and Estimation of Soft Robotic Arms
Tongjia Zheng, Hai Lin
Compared with traditional rigid-body robots, soft robots not only exhibit unprecedented adaptation and flexibility but also present novel challenges in their modeling and control b…
Contact-Implicit Trajectory Optimization with Hydroelastic Contact and iLQR
Vince Kurtz, Hai Lin
Contact-implicit trajectory optimization offers an appealing method of automatically generating complex and contact-rich behaviors for robot manipulation and locomotion. The scalab…
