The paper presents a control strategy for an automotive electronic throttle body, a device largely used into vehicles to increase the efficiency of the combustion engines. The synthesis of the proposed controller is based on a linear matrix inequality (LMI) formulation, which allows us to deal with uncertainties on the measurements of the position of the throttle valve. The LMI approach generates a suboptimal solution for the robust ‚Ñã2 static output feedback control problem, and the corresponding suboptimal control gain was evaluated in practice to control the valve position of the throttle. The usefulness of the approach has been verified not only by numerical simulations but also by real experiments taken in a laboratory prototype.

Robust null controllability for heat equations with unknown switching control mode
Lu Q.; Zuazua E. (Discrete and Continuous Dynamical Systems- Series A, 2014-12-31)We analyze the null controllability for heat equations in the presence of switching controls. The switching pattern is a priori unknown so that the control has to be designed in a robust manner, based only on the past ... -
Null controllability of a system of viscoelasticity with a moving control
Chaves-Silva F.W.; Rosier L.; Zuazua E. (Journal des Mathematiques Pures et Appliquees, 2014-12-31)In this paper, we consider the wave equation with both viscous Kelvin-Voigt and frictional damping as a model of viscoelasticity in which we incorporate an internal control with a moving support. We prove the null ... -
