Robust H2/H-infinity control under stochastic requirements: minimizing conditional value-at-risk instead of worst-case performance
Ervan Kassarian, Francesco Sanfedino, Daniel Alazard +1
Conventional robust H2/H-infinity control minimizes the worst-case performance, often leading to a conservative design driven by very rare parametric configurations. To reduce this…
Worst-case search in constrained uncertainty space for robust H-infinity synthesis
Ervan Kassarian, Francesco Sanfedino, Daniel Alazard +1
Standard linear H-infinity/H2 robust control and analysis tools operate on uncertain parameters assumed to vary independently within prescribed bounds. This paper extends their cap…
Non-linear dynamics of multibody systems: a system-based approach
Daniel Alazard, Francesco Sanfedino, Ervan Kassarian
This paper presents causal block-diagram models to represent the equations of motion of multi-body systems in a very compact and simple closed form. Both the forward dynamics (from…
Satellite Dynamics Toolbox Library: a tool to model multi-body space systems for robust control synthesis and analysis
Francesco Sanfedino, Daniel Alazard, Ervan Kassarian +1
The level of maturity reached by robust control theory techniques nowadays contributes to a considerable minimization of the development time of an end-to-end control design of a s…
Robust line-of-sight pointing control on-board a stratospheric balloon-borne platform
Ervan Kassarian, Francesco Sanfedino, Daniel Alazard +2
This paper addresses the lack of a general methodology for the controller synthesis of an optical instrument on-board a stratospheric balloon-borne platform, such as a telescope or…
Linear Fractional Transformation modeling of multibody dynamics around parameter-dependent equilibrium
Ervan Kassarian, Francesco Sanfedino, Daniel Alazard +2
This paper proposes a new Linear Fractional Transformation (LFT) modeling approach for uncertain Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) multibody systems with parameter-dependent equilibri…
