New views of some invariants associated with the Cartesian 2D velocity gradient tensor
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Vorticity and divergence of horizontal flow are fundamental quantities in meteorology; both are linear functions of the four elements of the 2D velocity gradient tensor and both are formally unchanged under coordinate rotation. We explore four quadratic functions of the elements that are geometrically invariant in this sense, finding some novel ...

Differentiation of matrix functionals using triangular factorization
, 2011 In various applications, it is necessary to differentiate a matrix functional w(A(x)), where A(x) is a matrix depending on a parameter vector x. Usually, the functional itself can be readily computed from a triangular factorization of A(x).

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In this work, a new event‐triggered adaptive first‐order sliding mode control method is proposed for nonlinear systems with constant time delays, modeled by interval type‐2 Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy systems. To handle matched disturbances with unknown upper bounds, a non‐overestimating adaptation strategy for the control coefficient is ...

High‐Order Sliding‐Mode control for MIMO Systems
International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper extends Lyapunov‐based homogeneous high‐order sliding‐mode control to a class of uncertain non‐square multi‐input multi‐output (MIMO) nonlinear systems with a well‐defined vector relative degree. The considered systems admit a normal‐form representation with an uncertain but full‐row‐rank input‐gain matrix.

The role of identification in data‐driven policy iteration: A system theoretic study
International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.Abstract The goal of this article is to study fundamental mechanisms behind so‐called indirect and direct data‐driven control for unknown systems. Specifically, we consider policy iteration applied to the linear quadratic regulator problem. Two iterative procedures, where data collected from the system are repeatedly used to compute new estimates of ...

Outracing a National Level Model Racing Car Champion: A Hybrid Model‐Based Data‐Driven Approach
Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper discusses lap time optimization, focusing on a single lap without considering opponents in autonomous racing. The paper presents a control and optimization architecture composed of a model‐based low level controller and a higher level iterative learning algorithm with the goal of obtaining the fastest qualifying lap in autonomous ...
