Proportional–integral–derivative (PID) controllers are the most adopted controllers in
industrial settings because of the advantageous cost/benefit ratio they are able to provide …

The finite-time transition between stationary setpoints of nonlinear SISO systems is
considered as a scenario for the presentation of a new design approach for inversion-based …

Fractional systems and fractional control have received great attention recently, both from an
academic and an industrial viewpoint, because of their increased flexibility (with respect to …

Single-track hard disk drive (HDD) seek performance is measured by settle time, t s. In this
paper, we show the effective use of feedforward dynamic inversion, coupled with reference …

Control of Integral Processes with Dead Time provides a unified and coherent review of the
various approaches devised for the control of integral processes, addressing the problem …

This article addresses the optimal (minimum-input-energy) output-transition problem for
linear systems. The goal is to transfer the output from an initial value y (t)= y ̄ (for all time t⩽ …

In this paper we propose an inversion-based methodology for the computation of a
feedforward action for the propofol intravenous administration during the induction of …

A continuous time fractional-order feedforward control algorithm for tracking desired time
varying input signals is proposed in this paper. The presented controller cancels the phase …

In this paper we propose an approximated method for the design of feedforward actions
based on model stable inversion. In the proposed framework the solution of the model stable …

This study addresses two major single‐input single‐output control problems involving both
feedback and feedforward actions:(i) the model matching in reference tracking and (ii) the …
