The concept of general implies that the characteristic equation of the LTI closed loop control system may be of both commensurate and non-commensurate orders, both the coefficients and the orders of the characteristic equation may be nonlinear functions of uncertain parameters, and the coefficients may be complex numbers. Some new specific areas for the roots of the characteristic equation are found so that they reduce the computational burden of testing the robust D-stability. Based on the value set of the characteristic equation, a necessary and sufficient condition for testing the robust D-stability of these systems is derived. Moreover, in the case that the coefficients are linear functions of the uncertain parameters and the orders do not have any uncertainties, the condition is adjusted for further computational burden reduction.

文摘Dear Editor,This letter presents a solution to the problem of seeking Nash equilibrium(NE)in a class of non-cooperative games of multi-agent systems(MASs)subject to the input disturbance and the networked communication.To this end,a novel distributed robust predefined-time algorithm is proposed,which ensures the precise convergence of agent states to the NE within a settling time that can be directly determined by adjusting one or more parameters.The proposed algorithm employs an integral sliding mode strategy to effectively reject disturbances.Additionally,a consensus-based estimator is designed to overcome the challenge of limited information availability,where each agent can only access information from its directly connected neighbors,which conflicts with the computation of the cost function that requires information from all agents.Finally,a numerical example is provided to demonstrate the algorithm's effectiveness and performance.
文摘While in the past the robustness of transportation networks was studied considering the cyber and physical space as isolated environments this is no longer the case.Integrating the Internet of Things devices in the sensing area of transportation infrastructure has resulted in ubiquitous cyber-physical systems and increasing interdependen-cies between the physical and cyber networks.As a result,the robustness of transportation networks relies on the uninterrupted serviceability of physical and cyber networks.Current studies on interdependent networks overlook the civil engineering aspect of cyber-physical systems.Firstly,they rely on the assumption of a uniform and strong level of interdependency.That is,once a node within a network fails its counterpart fails immedi-ately.Current studies overlook the impact of earthquake and other natural hazards on the operation of modern transportation infrastructure,that now serve as a cyber-physical system.The last is responsible not only for the physical operation(e.g.,flow of vehicles)but also for the continuous data transmission and subsequently the cy-ber operation of the entire transportation network.Therefore,the robustness of modern transportation networks should be modelled from a new cyber-physical perspective that includes civil engineering aspects.In this paper,we propose a new robustness assessment approach for modern transportation networks and their underlying in-terdependent physical and cyber network,subjected to earthquake events.The novelty relies on the modelling of interdependent networks,in the form of a graph,based on their interdependency levels.We associate the service-ability level of the coupled physical and cyber network with the damage states induced by earthquake events.Robustness is then measured as a degradation of the cyber-physical serviceability level.The application of the approach is demonstrated by studying an illustrative transportation network using seismic data from real-world transportation infrastructure.Furthermore,we propose the integration of a robustness improvement indicator based on physical and cyber attributes to enhance the cyber-physical serviceability level.Results indicate an improvement in robustness level(i.e.,41%)by adopting the proposed robustness improvement indicator.The usefulness of our approach is highlighted by comparing it with other methods that consider strong interdepen-dencies and key node protection strategies.The approach is of interest to stakeholders who are attempting to incorporate cyber-physical systems into civil engineering systems.
文摘Numerous uncertainties in practical production and operation can seriously affect the drive performance of permanent magnet synchronous machines(PMSMs).Various robust control methods have been developed to mitigate or eliminate the effects of these uncertainties.However,the robustness to uncertainties of electrical drive systems has not been clearly defined.No systemic procedures have been proposed to evaluate a control system's robustness(how robust it is).This paper proposes a systemic method for evaluating control systems'robustness to uncertainties.The concept and fundamental theory of robust control are illustrated by considering a simple uncertain feedback control system.The effects of uncertainties on the control performance and stability are analyzed and discussed.The concept of design for six-sigma(a robust design method)is employed to numerically evaluate the robustness levels of control systems.To show the effectiveness of the proposed robustness evaluation method,case studies are conducted for second-order systems,DC motor drive systems,and PMSM drive systems.Besides the conventional predictive control of PMSM drive,three different robust predictive control methods are evaluated in terms of two different parametric uncertainty ranges and three application requirements against parametric uncertainties.
