Abstract:
Input delays create challenges in stabilization problems in many
applications for unstable plants. I will present new designs for
global stabilization of broad classes of nonlinear systems with long
input delays. I will also introduce problems where the length of the
input delay is highly uncertain, or even completely unknown, and
present adaptive control designs for stabilization in the presence
of this and other parametric uncertainties. In addition to input
delays, I will discuss other infinite-dimensional input dynamics,
such as those that combine convective and diffusive phenomena.
Finally, I will show designs for PDEs with long input delays, such
as unstable reaction-diffusion equations and anti-stable wave
equations.
