Control of Complex Systems: Methods and Algorithms - Lucie Baudouin

This book celebrates Doctor Sophie Tarbouriech’s achievements in systems, control and related topics. The contributions in this book summarize the content of invited lectures given at the workshop “Methods and Algorithms for the Control of Complex Systems” held in Banyuls, France in late August 2024 in honor of Doctor Tarbouriech’s sixtieth birthday. These contributions are the work of forty-four distinguished researchers from nine countries and are related to Doctor Tarbouriech’s areas of research, being organized in parts dealing with:

This Festschrift volume remains as a permanent scientific record of this event and is of interest to academic researchers working in any of the listed topics.

Control of Complex Systems presents recent control methods and algorithms for analysing the stability or guaranteeing the performance of complex dynamical systems. Several classes of systems are covered, including nonlinear, hybrid and infinite-dimensional systems. Various control strategies are addressed, including reset control, anti-windup, event-based control, impulsive control, boundary control for PDEs and data-driven control. Analysis and design objectives include, among others, synchronization, robustness of linear and nonlinear systems, anti-windup loops and convex optimization for stability. Applications include aeronautics and space, control of physical systems with isolated nonlinearities and epidemiological models.
