We construct hybrid loops that augment continuous-time control systems. We consider a continuous-time nonlinear plant in feedback with a (possibly non stabilizing) given nonlinear dynamic continuous-time state feedback controller. The arising hybrid closed loops are guaranteed to follow the underlying continuous-time closed-loop dynamics when flowing and to jump in suitable regions of the closed-loop state space to guarantee that a positive definite function V of the closed-loop state and/or a positive definite function Vp of the plant-only state is non-increasing along the hybrid trajectories. Sufficient conditions for the construction of these hybrid loops are given for the nonlinear case and then specialized for the linear case with the use of quadratic functions. For the linear case we illustrate specific choices of the functions V and Vp which allow for the reduction of the overshoot of a scalar output. The proposed approaches are illustrated on linear and nonlinear examples.
CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic
(which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments.
It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions.
The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager
like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
