Mechanical Systems, Mechanics, and Delays: Removing the Boundaries Using Boundary Control Originating in nonlinear ODE systems motivated by applications in electric machines, robotics, and vehicles (aircraft, spacecraft, ships, underwater, and automotive), the backstepping approach has evolved towards PDE systems arising in continuum mechanics (fluid flows, plasmas, beams), and most recently towards systems with input delays. Basic ideas and tools for boundary control of PDEs will be introduced, highlighting the difference between diffusion phenomena, reaction phenomena, wave phenomena, and pure transport phenomena. No background in PDEs is expected. By using boundary control tools developed for compensating transport PDE dynamics, techniques for control of systems with input delays will be developed. Compensation of input delays of arbitrary length in nonlinear control systems will be highlighted. These techniques come on the 50th anniversary of the Smith predictor, the original tool for compensating input delays in linear control systems. By exploiting the seamless connection between delay/transport systems and other PDEs, compensation techniques for actuator dynamics not dominated by pure transport but by more complex PDE phenomena (for example, thermo-acoustic) will be considered.
Algorithm Engineering – Smoothing the Way From Design to Simulation to Prototyping Engineers and scientists can benefit from unified software and hardware that can bridge gaps between design, simulation, and prototyping tasks. These tasks can be defined as algorithm engineering. The goal of algorithm engineering is the development of an embedded system which has been verified with measurements. This process is facilitated by software that can effectively incorporate I/O and timing. This talk will discuss the use of the algorithm engineering approach in the areas of dynamic systems and controls, mechatronics, and robotics. Case studies will be presented in the areas of green engineering, biomedical device design, robotics, and autonomous vehicles. |

ASME DSCD Nyquist Lecture 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm, Monday October 12 Hollywood Ballroom - Studio C-E The Dynamic Systems and Control Division of ASME annually hosts a distinguished lecturer to present the Nyquist Lecture (see ASME DSCD Nyquist Lecture.)
Vehicle Dynamics Systems: From Automation to Autonomy The field of mechatronics has made possible new levels of automation. The reduced cost of sensors, actuators and microprocessors, combined with the on-going development of sophisticated control algorithms, has made possible many new feedback control systems. These include industrial robots, autopilots, vehicle control systems for speed/inter-vehicle spacing, dynamic stability control, collision avoidance…. The list goes on and on. This talk reviews the early work in automated vehicles at UC Berkeley and the transition from automated systems that could perform a set of tasks defined by a human to autonomous systems that can be asked to perform far more complicated tasks and can accomplish them independent of further instruction from a human controller. Finally, ongoing developmental research in the use of autonomous, unmanned, air vehicles to form a mobile sensor network will be described. |

Roles of Dynamic Systems and Control in Bio-Systems and Health Care: A Long-Term Perspective (MoCT4)
4:45 pm -6:00 pm, Monday October 12 Room: Laurel Organizers: Professor H. Harry Asada Massachusetts Institute of Technology Professor Satish Nair University of Missouri, Columbia The objective of this frontier session is to address fundamentals of bio-systems and health care across diverse research topics, and identify roles of dynamic systems and control. Through discussions among active DSC members as well as individuals outside the DSC community, we intend to portray the long-term perspective of dynamic systems and control in bio-systems and health care. Keynote speakers will be asked to address these issues along with brief summary of their own works. We will invite keynote speakers from diverse areas of bio-systems and health care. These include: Neville Hogan, MIT: Rehabilitation robotics William Messner, Carnegie-Mellon University: Biological instrumentation Galip Ulsoy, University of Michigan: Bio-systems dynamics Satish Nair, University of Missouri: Brain circuit modeling Venkat Krovi, State University of New York at Buffalo: Bio-mimetic robotics H. Harry Asada, MIT: Microfluidic cell population control (if time permits). The panel discussion will be moderated by H. Harry Asada. Government and Industry Panel on Future Directions in R&D (MoCT5) 4:45 pm - 6:00 pm, Monday October 12 Room: Solano Organizer: Professor Rahmat Shoureshi University of Denver Several panel speakers from government agencies, e.g. NSF, and companies have been invited to provide their outlook about future R&D directions and support for them, as well as new initiatives that they plan to introduce. Confirmed speakers include: George Reynolds, Northrop Grumman Tom Jasin, Aerospace Corporation Eduardo Misawa, NSF Suhada Jayasuriya, NSF Progress and Challenges in the Configuration, Control, and Battery Management of Vehicle-To-Grid (V2G) Integration Systems (TuCT5) 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm, Tuesday October 13 Room: Solano Organizers: MIIS Technical Committee Dr. Hosam Fathy University of Michigan, Ann Arbor Professor Bryan Rasmussen Texas A&M University This session defines vehicle-to-grid (V2G) integration as the process of enabling smart grids and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) to not only share electric energy, but also optimize this shared energy use jointly and synergistically. The process of allowing such PHEVs to synergistically optimize their shared use of electric energy with the smart grid couples the transportation and grid power infrastructures. This coupling creates a V2G system capable of responding to consumer energy needs while replacing exhaustible fuel with renewable energy. The advent of V2G integration has created a strong need for new fundamental and applied research in the dynamic systems and control area. This need for new research spans at least three different levels of V2G integration: At the component level, at the subsystem level, and at the system level. Three speakers have agreed to give a frontier session at the 2009 ASME Dynamic Systems and Control Conference focusing on V2G integration from a dynamic systems and controls perspective: Giorgio Rizzoni, Ohio State University Zoran Filipi, The University of Michigan, Ann Arbor Jeff Stein, The University of Michigan, Ann Arbor Due to low enrollment, the following workshops are cancelled. Registration fee for the workshops will be refunded. Novel Perspectives on Stability of Linear Time Invariant-Time Delayed Systems (LYI-TDS) and Practical Implementations CANCELLED Instructors: Professor Nejat Olgac Mechanical Engineering Department, University of Connecticut Professor Rifat Sipahi Mechanical & Industrial Engineering, Northeastern University Professor A. Galip Ulsoy Mechanical Engineering, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor Mr. Sun Yi, Doctoral Student Mechanical Engineering, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor Abstract This workshop covers an umbrella paradigm called the ‘Cluster Treatment of Characteristic Roots (CTCR) which brings a resolution to the stability problems of LTI-TDS via a substantially different perspective. The theoretical part of the workshop is on the discussions of the two key propositions, which lay the groundwork for CTCR, and reveal some interesting discipline in the infinitely many characteristic roots of LTI-TDS. They declare the stability islands in the time delay domain. Single delay or rationally commensurate (i.e., rationally related) multiple delay cases as well as systems with rationally independent delays are discussed. End product of this treatment can be influential in a broad range of practical applications in the areas from real time control (e.g., Delay Scheduling concept) to optimized machining, from vibration absorption against excitations with time varying frequencies to improved supply chain management and vehicular traffic flow. The workshop will also cover the analysis and control problems associated with LTI-TDS using the matrix Lambert W function. The Lambert W function enables closed-form solution of scalar LTI-TDS, and has been extended to systems of LTI-TDS using the matrix Lambert W function. This provides a theoretical framework, analogous to the state transition matrix in terms of the matrix exponential function for ordinary differential equations, that can be applied to delay differential equations. Topics to be presented based-upon this approach include free and forced response, stability, observability and controllability, and controller design via eigenvalue assignment for LTI-TDS. Application examples are presented throughout, using computational methods in Matlab, including machining chatter, powertrain control, and HIV dynamics. A Tour of Practical Applications of Time-Delayed Control Specifically, the following practical cases will be covered in the workshop: a) Chatter prediction in Simultaneous Machining, b) Optimization in variable-pitch milling, c) Delay Scheduling - use of time delay as a stabilizing tool in target tracking, d) Single axis arm control with delayed data and counter-intuitive observations, e) A concept of actively tuning vibration absorbers, the “Delayed Resonator”, f) Decision-making tableaus in supply chain management with delays, e) Asymptotic and string stability of traffic flow with driver reaction delays, f) Observer based controller design for control of a diesel engine, and g) eigenvalue sensitivity in HIV dynamics. Participant Requirements: Laptop Computer Tensegrity Systems CANCELLED Instructors: Professor Robert Skelton Professor Mauricio de Oliveira Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, University of California San Diego Abstract This course provides some new analytical machinery to help integrate structure and control design. Such cooperation between the static and dynamic properties of the structure and the control system can only be accomplished by a structure design paradigm that maintains a high degree of “controllability” during all phases of the structure design. Tensegrity solves some mathematical problems that are important in structure and control design. We will determine the optimal complexity of the minimal mass structure, and show that this optimized structure has a finite complexity, and has a topology we call tensegrity. Indeed, we will show that the material topology that minimizes mass subject to a strength and stiffness constraint is a tensegrity topology for both the cases for bending loads and for compressive loads. One can control the shape of such a system with minimal control energy, by controlling the strings to move the system from one equilibrium to another. New dynamic models and new control strategies are introduced for the first time in this course. Since the minimal mass structure is tensegrity, and the tensegrity paradigm for structures (an assembly of “sticks” and “strings”) easily allows one to modify the equilibrium of the structure to achieve a new desired shape (so that power is not required to hold the new shape). A final study of control strategies will be very briefly discussed. Proofs of all results in the course may be found in the book {TENSEGRITY SYSTEMS, Skelton and de Oliveira, by Springer Verlag 2009, ISBN: 9780387742410} (book not included). |
