Max-plus Methods For Nonlinear Control And Estimation

Descripción

LIBRERÍA LEA+

The central focus of this book is the control of continuous-time/continuous-space nonlinear systems. Using new techniques that employ the max-plus algebra, the author addresses several classes of nonlinear control problems, including nonlinear optimal control problems and nonlinear robust/H-infinity control and estimation problems. Several numerical techniques are employed, including a max-plus eigenvector approach and an approach that avoids the curse-of-dimensionality.

well-know dynamic programming arguments show there is a direct relationship between the solution of a control problem and the solution of a corresponding Hamilton-Jacobi-BellmN (HJB) partial differential equation (PDE). The max-plus-based methods examined in his monograph belong to an entirely new class of numerical methods for the solution of nonlinear control problems and their associated HJB PDEs; the are not equivalent to either of the more commnly used finite element or characteristics approaches. The potencial advantages of the max-plus-based approaches lie in the fact that solution operators for nonlinear HJB problems are linear oveer the max-plus algebra, and this linearity is exploited in the construction of algorithms.

The book will be of interest to applied mathematicians, engineers, and graduate students interested in the control of nonlinear systems through the implementation of recently developed numerical methods. Researchers and practitioners tangentialyy interested in this area will also find a readable, concise discussion of the subject through a careful selection of specific chapters and sections. Basic knowledge of control theory for systems with dynamics governed by differential equations is required.
