Seminário “Controller design for input saturated linear systems: Increased estimates of the region of attraction through controller augmentations”
Abstract: Standard approaches to locally stabilize the origin of input saturated linear systems rely on semidefinite programming. These approaches provide estimates of the region of attraction in terms of sublevel sets of Lyapunov functions. Starting from these results, we discuss controller design augmentations for linear systems with asymmetric actuator saturation to increase the estimate of the region of attraction of the origin of the closed loop system. Novel results are obtained by stabilizing reference points, i.e., shifted equilibria, selected via the solution of a state dependent optimization problem enjoying desirable asymptotic properties. Finally, the reference points are shifted gradually to the origin, leading to larger domains for which asymptotic stability can be guaranteed. The results are illustrated on numerical examples.

Local: Sala PósAutomação Térreo
O seminário é aberto a professores e alunos (graduação e pós-graduação) interessados no tema.
Já está no ar a nova edição da Revista do PosAutomação, você pode acessá-la na íntegra aqui. Essa é a 6ª edição e neste número a Revista traz como tema central várias das pesquisas aplicadas realizadas no programa, e que não foram tratadas em números anteriores. O conteúdo desta edição é bem interessante, pois permite apreciar o impacto das pesquisas em diversos setores da vida das pessoas, não apenas em sistemas relacionados a máquinas e equipamentos.
