A Conic Sector-Based Methodology for Nonlinear Control Design

Abstract

A design method is presented for the analysis and synthesis of robust nonlinear controllers for chemical engineering systems. The method rigorously treats the effect of unmeasured disturbances and unmodeled dynamics on the stability and performance properties of a nonlinear system. The results utilise new extensions of structured singular value theory for analysis and recent synthesis results for approximate linearisation.
