Decentralized State Feedback And Near Optimal Adaptive Neural Network Control Of Interconnected Nonlinear Discrete-Time Systems, Shahab Mehraeen, Jagannathan Sarangapani, Mariesa Crow Dec 2010

Decentralized State Feedback And Near Optimal Adaptive Neural Network Control Of Interconnected Nonlinear Discrete-Time Systems, Shahab Mehraeen, Jagannathan Sarangapani, Mariesa Crow

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

In this paper, first a novel decentralized state feedback stabilization controller is introduced for a class of nonlinear interconnected discrete-time systems in affine form with unknown subsystem dynamics, control gain matrix, and interconnection dynamics by employing neural networks (NNs). Subsequently, the optimal control problem of decentralized nonlinear discrete-time system is considered with unknown internal subsystem and interconnection dynamics while assuming that the control gain matrix is known. For the near optimal controller development, the direct neural dynamic programming technique is utilized to solve the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation forward-in-time. The decentralized optimal controller design for each subsystem utilizes the critic-actor structure …


Optimized Waveform Relaxation Solution Of Electromagnetic And Circuit Problems, Martin J. Gander, Albert E. Ruehli Oct 2010

Optimized Waveform Relaxation Solution Of Electromagnetic And Circuit Problems, Martin J. Gander, Albert E. Ruehli

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

New algorithms are needed to solve electromagnetic problems using today's widely available parallel processors. In this paper, we show that applying the optimized waveform relaxation approach to a partial element equivalent circuit will yield a powerful technique for solving electromagnetic problems with the potential for a large number of parallel processor nodes.


Hamiltonian Theory Based Coordinated Nonlinear Control Of Generator Excitation And Statcoms, Keyou Wang, Mariesa Crow Sep 2010

Hamiltonian Theory Based Coordinated Nonlinear Control Of Generator Excitation And Statcoms, Keyou Wang, Mariesa Crow

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

A coordinated controller for generator excitation and STATCOMs is studied based on the Hamiltonian function method. The Hamiltonian realization structure for multimachine power systems including STATCOMs is developed leading to a proposed coordinated scheme of excitation control and STATCOM control. Simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.
