Adaptive control of a class of slowly time varying systems with modeling uncertainties
(2005)In a recent work, a new linear adaptive controller based on certainty-equivalence and backstepping design, which promises a level of transient and asymptotic performance comparable to that of the tuning functions adaptive ...

Adaptive LQ control with anti-windup augmentation to optimize UAV performance in autonomous soaring applications
(2008)The performance of a glider can be considerably improved by means of soaring and optimization of its trajectory. Recent advances in the area of static soaring assume known linear glider dynamics and no actuator saturation ...

Application of three bivariate time-varying volatility models
(2001)The multivariate time-varying volatility models have recently attracted a lot of attention in the statistics/econometrics community. We apply two bivariate ARCH-GARCH models and a bivariate unobserved ARCH model to a series ...

Backstepping Control of Linear Time-Varying Systems with Known and Unknown Parameters
(2003)The backstepping control design procedure has been used to develop stabilizing controllers for time invariant plants that are linear or belong to some class of nonlinear systems. The use of such a procedure to design ...

Bounds on FSM switching activity
(2008)This paper obtains lower and upper bounds for the switching activity on the state lines of a finite state machine (FSM) that is driven by typical input sequences. More specifically, the paper provides bounds on the average ...

Design of strictly positive real systems using constant output feedback
(1999)In this paper, the authors present a linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach to the strictly positive real (SPR) synthesis problem: find an output feedback K such that the closed-loop system T(s) is SPR. The authors establish ...

Direct methods for spectral approximations in nonconforming domain decompositions
(1998)The application of a conforming spectral collocation method to certain nonconforming domain decompositions leads to global matrices which have a particular block structure. We study the performance of various direct linear ...
