Optimal control problems for a class of time delay systems with quadratic performance index are studied.

By approximating various time functions in the systems as their truncated hybrid functions, we attain

to ...

The current paper aims to provide an optimal stable fuzzy controller to extend the travel

range of a pair of flexible electrostatically actuated circular microplates beyond their

pull-in limit. The single ...

This paper presenting case studies in modern large scale constrained optimization,

the purpose of which is to illustrate how recent advances in algorithms and modelling

languages have made it easy to solve ...

This study of gas to liquid (GTL) production uses an authothermal reformer (ATR) for synthesis gas production and a slurry bubble column reactor (SBCR) with Cobalt catalyst for the Fisher-Tropsch (FT) conversion to liquid ...

In this paper, a sliding mode control (SMC) design approach using

embedding process, measure theory and optimal control techniques

is proposed. In this method, a state trajectory starting from a

given ...
