  1. Distributed Parameter Control of Thermal Fluids

    We consider the problem of controlling a thermal convection flow by feedback. The system is governed by the Boussinesq approximation of the coupled set of Navier-Stokes and heat equations. The control is applied through Dirichlet boundary conditions. We concentrate on a two-dimensional mode and use …

  2. Distributed parameter control of heat diffusion with solidification

    … safely operating the caster. Yet most current control methods are effectively open-loop, due to the complicated nature of the process. Measurements of the steel temperature cannot be made reliably due to the high temperatures and constant water spray in the caster. Even if feedback could be …

  3. Finite dimensional approximations of distributed parameter control systems

    … to the development of finite dimensional control systems for approximating distributed parameter models. One method uses the “standard finite element” approximations to construct the basic system matrices. The resulting system can then be balanced by any of several balancing algorithms. …

  4. Output Regulation of Systems Governed by Delay Differential Equations: Approximations and Robustness

    … regulation can be highly sensitive to system parameters and hence such designs are not always robust. In particular, when employing numerical approximations to delay systems, the resulting finite dimensional models inherit natural approximation errors that can impact robustness. This …
