Abstract: An observer for a bilinear system with an unknown unmeasurable disturbance is considered. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of disturbance decoupled full order and minimal ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the synthesis of an optimal yet practical finite preview controller for a semi-active dissipative suspension system based on a two-degree-of-freedom (2-DOF) vehicle model. ...

Abstract: This paper deals with discrete time learning controllers for systems with periodically varying parameters. Several control rules are proposed which use a basic principle of learning control that ...

Abstract: Several control laws for active and semi-active suspension based on a linear half car model are derived and investigated. The strategies proposed take full advantage of the fact that the road ...

Abstract: In this paper a method of parameter identification for a multi-degree-of-freedom structural system in a noisy environment is presented. The method involves an iterative procedure in which initial ...
