In control of structures, the problem is ordinarily formulated in terms of second order matrix differential equations. In general, for an \(n\)-degree-of-freedom structure, design of a linear quadratic regulator requires the solution of a \(2 n \times 2 n\) matrix Ricatti equation. In the case of se

β¦ Synopsis
new method is proposed to implement gain-scheduled controllers for nonlinear plants. Given a family of linear feedback controllers designed for linearizations of a nonlinear plant about constant operating points, a nonlinear gain-scheduled controller is derived that preserves the input-output properties of the linear closed loop systems locally, about each equilibrium point. The key procedures in the proposed method are to provide integral action at the inputs to the plant and differentiate some of the measured outputs before they are fed back to the scheduled controller. For a fairly general class of systems, the nonlinear gain-scheduled controllers are easy to obtain, and their structure is similar to that of the original linear controllers.

Polynomial jilters have many applications in real time control, estimation and identification, particularly when information about the system dynamics and noise statistics are not precisely known. In this paper, a generalized recursive algorithm for nth order polynomial jilters is developed. The par
We describe an efficient parallel implementation of the pushrelabel maximum flow algorithm for a shared-memory multiprocessor. Our main technical innovation is a method that allows the "global relabeling" heuristic to be executed concurrently with the main algorithm; this heuristic is essential for
