This paper focuses on the feedback control of a linear single-input single-output process in the presence of input saturation constraints. First, closed-loop stability is guaranteed through the use of a parametrization of all nonlinear stabilizing controllers in terms of an S-stable parameter Q. The

β¦ Synopsis
We study a control problem for a special class of underactuated mechanical systems, namely for mechanical systems with several directly actuated degrees of freedom and a single unactuated degree of freedom that must be controlled through the system coupling. Speci"c assumptions are introduced that de"ne this class, which includes many important models of mechanical system examples. The main result of the paper is the construction of a discontinuous nonlinear feedback controller for which the closed loop equilibrium at the origin is made &globally attractive'. The control construction approach is introduced in detail, and a proof of attractiveness is presented. The results are applied to control of the planar motion of a rigid body with a single unactuated internal degree of freedom.

## Abstract Discontinuous bioreactors may be further optimized for processing inhibitory substrates using a convenient fedβbatch mode. To do so the filling rate must be controlled in such a way as to push the reaction rate to its maximum value, by increasing the substrate concentration just up to t
This paper considers the problem of robust disturbance attenuation for a class of systems with both Lipschitz bounded and nonlinear uncertainties. The nonlinear uncertainty is assumed to satisfy a 'matching condition' and bounded by a known nonlinear function. The Lipschitz bounded one could be with
