Positive Invariance Lemmas for Control Problems with Convergence to Lyapunov-unstable Sets (2009)
Gorban, A., Tyukin, I., Steur, E., Nijmeijer, H.
We provide Lyapunov-like characterizations of positive invariance, boundedness and convergence of non-trivial solutions for a class of systems with unstable invariant sets. The systems of this class...
Abstract — In this paper we present an asymptotically stabilizing output feedback control scheme for a class of nonlinear discrete-time systems. The presented scheme consists of an extended...
Regulation and Controlled Synchronization (2007)
In this paper we investigate the problem of controlled synchronization as a regulator problem. In controlled synchronization one is given autonomous transmitter dynamics and controlled receiver...
Regulation and Controlled Synchronization for Complex Dynamical Systems (2007)
In this paper we investigate the problem of controlled synchronization as a regulator problem. In controlled synchronization one is given autonomous transmitter dynamics and controlled receiver...
Application Of Nonlinear Disturbance Decoupling To Active Car Steering (2007)
J. Ackermann, T. Bünte, H. Nijmeijer
A control design approach is presented for active steering of front wheel steered vehicles. The approach consists of the application of disturbance decoupling via statederivative feedback....

Synchronization and Graph Topology (2005)
Belykh, I, Hasler, M, Lauret, M, Nijmeijer, H
This paper clarifies the relation between synchronization and graph topology. Applying the Connection Graph Stability method developed by Belykh et al. [2004a] to the study of synchronization in...
Convex equations and differential inclusions in hybrid systems (2004)
A. Pogromsky, H. Nijmeijer, J. E. Rooda
Abstract — Differential equations with discontinuous right hand sides enable modeling and analysis of control systems with switching elements at a high level of abstraction. Solutions of these...

Semi-Global Practical Stabilization and Disturbance Adaptation for an Underactuated Ship (2000)
Abstract | We consider the problem of stabilizing the position and orientation of a ship to constant desired values, when the ship has only two independent controls and also the ship is subject to an...

Abstract--- We consider the problem of stabilizing the position and orientation of a ship to constant desired values, when the ship has only two independent controls and also the ship is subject to...
System Identification in Communication With Chaotic Systems (2000)
Communication using chaotic systems is considered from a control point of view. It is shown that parameter identification methods may be effective in building reconstruction mechanisms, even when a...
Four Decades of Mathematical System Theory (1999)
As a follow-up to the volume Three Decades of Mathematical System Theory that the authors of this paper edited in 1989 at the occasion of the ...ftieth birthday of Jan Willems, we discuss some trends...
Discrete-time Observers and Synchronization (1999)
The synchronization problem for complex discrete--time systems is revisited from a control perspective and it is argued that the problem may be viewed as an observer problem. It is shown that for...
: We solve both the global practical stabilization and tracking problem for an underactuated ship, using a combined integrator backstepping and averaging approach. Exponential convergence to an...
Tracking Control of an Underactuated Surface Vessel (1998)
We consider tracking control of a surface vessel with only two control inputs. The surface vessel model has certain similarities with chained form systems, but cannot be transformed to chained form....
