Stability and Control of Linear Parameter Varying Systems

The framework of Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) systems has proven to be a systematic way to model nonlinear real-world phenomena and synthesize gain-scheduled controllers for nonlinear systems. The applications of LPV systems include the automotive industry, turbofan engines, robotics, and aerospace systems. Apart from nonlinearity, real-world applications are often affected by time delays, that can degrade the performance of the dynamical systems, or in the worst case, they can cause instability. Time delays frequently appear in communication networks, mechanical systems, PVTOL aircraft, robotized teleoperation, and many other domains. Since time delays can also adversely affect the stability of the LPV systems, it is quite natural to study the stability LPV systems with time delays, which is one of the main focus of this project. A particular attention will be paid to the study of stability and control of LPV systems with piecewise continuous parameters which can be regarded as switched systems with an uncountable number of modes in a bounded compact set.

• To study stability and control of LPV systems with piecewise constant parameters and delay.
• To explore the possibility of extending the results to LPV systems with stochastic piecewise constant parameter trajectories and stochastic time-delays.
