Parametrization in the control of dynamic systems

Objective

The goal of the project is to increase and deepen the knowledge on the control of dynamic systems at the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, University of Kuopio, based on the idea of flatness, developed recently by M. Fliess and co-workers in France , and on the methodology called parametrization. Here dynamic systems has a control-theoretic meaning of being controlled ordinary or partial differential equation (PDE) systems (of parabolic evolution type). A technically feasible and computational test f or checking flatness and parametrizability is still missing. Furthermore, extensions to nonlinear partial differential systems still waits for a developer. Linear partial differential systems can already be controlled via a flatness-based technique, a so-c alled parametrization method. The scientific objective is to further develop, together with advanced European specialists, control methodology of dynamic systems via flatness and parametrization concepts, and try to extend these results to nonlinear PDE sy stems. Some methodological results developed earlier in our department will also be developed further and applied. A central application field is control of quantum mechanically described systems. This application field has a key role in developing new mea surement principles and corresponding technologies,and interface electronics for future, e.g. mobile, communication systems relying on quantum mechanical principles in quantum computation and quantum control. Due to the plans to develop a new Master of Sci ence curriculum in engineering in the University of Kuopio, and due to the etablation of new research and development units of multinational high-tech companies, e.g. Honeywell and Nokia, in Kuopio and Northern Savo region, knowledge of advanced control e ngineering and mathematical control theory has to be increased and enlarged to guarantee high level curriculum teaching in the field. Our proposal supports strongly this development.
