Content, Learning Outcome and Preconditions

Content

In the winter term (part 1) analytical methods for nonlinear control system design and analysis are introduced:
- description of nonlinear dynamical system by nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs).
- their properties and requirements on the right hand side of the ODE are discussed to ensure e.g. existence and uniqueness of the solution,
- possible equilibrium points and the existence of periodic orbits. With that in mind, several stability criteria in the sense of Lyapunov are presented and tools for nonlinear control design are deduced (e.g. control Lyapunov functions). "Selected methods for nonlinear systems 1 and 2" are mainly independently from each other, hence part 1 is not obligatory for attendance of part 2.

Learning Outcome

At the end of the module students are able to:
- understand and analyse nonlinear ordinary differential equations and remember the difference to linear differential equations
- evaluate and analyse ODEs, e.g. such that a unique and maximal solution can be obtained or stability properties with the help of Lyapunov's 1. and 2. method can be deduced
- understand and distinguish between equilibria and periodic orbits.
- create and design stable intelligent nonlinear and/or adaptive controllers for nonlinear complex SISO/MIMO systems described by nonlinear ordinary differential equations.
