This paper proposes a novel nonlinear model predictive controller (MPC) in terms of linear
matrix inequalities (LMIs). The proposed MPC is based on Takagi–Sugeno (TS) fuzzy …

This paper presents active vibration control to reduce the stick-slip oscillations in drill-strings.
A simplified two degrees-of-freedom drill-string torsional model is considered. The nonlinear …

The Francis hydro-turbine generator unit (FHTGU) is a typical nonlinear system with the
coupling hydraulic, mechanical and electric subsystems. It is a challenge to understand the …

A semi-analytical solution of the nonlinear boundary value problem that models the
electrohydrodynamic flow of a fluid in an ion drag configuration in a circular cylindrical …

Kalman filter and its different variants are commonly used as optimal methods for fault
detection in various types of system components. In this paper, a newly introduced type of …

In this research work, we considered the numerical solution of an essential fractional
dynamical model of HIV infection of CD4^++ T cells, by using a relatively new technique …

Abstract The World Health Organization is yet to realise the global aim of achieving future-
free and eliminating the transmission of respiratory diseases such as H1N1, SARS and …

This manuscript aims to investigate a new approach based on the modal series method and
eigenvalue decomposition technique to solve a class of nonlinear optimal control problems …

The principle result of this paper is the following disturbance rejection control scheme for a
class of nonlinear dynamical systems. By using the internal model principle, the problem of …

In this study, we propose and analyze a new mathematical model formulated by partial
differential equations in order to better understand the mechanisms and dynamics of …
