Higher-order Lie bracket approximation and averaging of control-affine systems with application to extremum seeking
Sameer Pokhrel, Sameh A. Eisa
This paper provides a rigorous derivation for what is known in the literature as the Lie bracket approximation of control-affine systems in a more general and sequential framework…
Analyzing and Mimicking the Optimized Flight Physics of Soaring Birds: A Differential Geometric Control and Extremum Seeking System Approach with Real Time Implementation
Sameh A. Eisa, Sameer Pokhrel
For centuries, soaring birds -- such as albatrosses and eagles -- have been mysterious and intriguing for biologists, physicists, aeronautical/control engineers, and applied mathem…
A novel hypothesis for how albatrosses optimize their flight physics in real-time: an extremum seeking model and control for dynamic soaring
Sameer Pokhrel, Sameh A. Eisa
The albatross optimized flight maneuver -- known as dynamic soaring -- is nothing but a wonder of biology, physics, and engineering. By utilizing dynamic soaring, the bird can trav…
Control-Affine Extremum Seeking Control with Attenuating Oscillations: A Lie Bracket Estimation Approach
Sameer Pokhrel, Sameh A. Eisa
Control-affine Extremum Seeking Control (ESC) systems have been increasingly studied and applied in the last decade. In a recent effort, many control-affine ESC structures have bee…
