    Novel aperiodic sampling and control strategies: application to underactuated systems
    (Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (España). Escuela Internacional de Doctorado. Programa de Doctorado en Ingeniería de Sistemas y Control, 2018-09-21) Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Dormido Bencomo, Sebastián; Guinaldo Losada, María
    The work in this thesis explores the possibilities of aperiodic sampling and control. Using the advances of the last decades in the field of networked systems, the main objective is to obtain methods to use the sampling period of the different measurements of the system to improve the performance or to reduce the transmission of information. With this idea, different eventtriggered control and multi-rate control schemes are proposed. In addition, this thesis aims to provide a practical usage of the strategies and, hence, different simulation and experimental results are developed. In the event-triggered control scenario, different periodic event-triggered strategies are proposed to deal asynchronous sampling, time-varying delays, disturbance rejection, etc. in linear systems. Besides, the practical application of the strategies commonly implies to deal with nonlinear systems. For this reason, some parts are dedicated to the extensions of the proposed strategies to some classes of nonlinear systems. Concretely, polynomial systems and inverted pendulum-type systems are studied. In the multi-rate scenario, the objective is tomaximize the performance of the plant considering that the information received from the sensor is collected at a lower frequency than the actuator’s rate and, hence, several inputs can be applied to the plant in each output sampling period. With this idea, some optimization methods are proposed and different strategies for their practical application are discussed. The methods are applied to an air levitation system with the main goal of obtaining an experimental validation. With theMatlab library for process control simulations, we close the loop providing tools to carry out the simulations necessary to validate the aforementioned theoretical frameworks. Finally, the objective of the last paper is to study alternative aperiodic control strategies in the framework of underactuated systems.

    Revisiting the simplified IMC tuning rules for low-order controllers: Feedforward controller
    (The Institution of engineering and technology, 2020) Rodríguez, Carlos; Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Guzmán, José Luis; Berenguel, Manuel; Hägglund, Tore
    In this work, the load disturbance rejection problem is studied. Specifically, feedforward compensators are considered to reduce the effect of the disturbance in the process’ performance. We propose simple tuning rules that can be easily applied to a wide range of processes improving the response against the disturbance. The improvement of the proposed method is measured through different performance indices in several simulation examples.

    Customized Online Laboratory Experiments: A General Tool and Its Application to the Furuta Inverted Pendulum [Focus on Education]
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-09-17) Galán, Daniel; Chaos García, Dictino; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Heradio Gil, Rubén
    Because of online laboratories (labs), students can perform experimental activities from their mobile devices and/or computers. This article proposes an experimentation environment (EE) that extends the capabilities of interactive online labs with scripting language support. Thus, control engineering students can specify complex experiments, avoid routine tasks, and empirically test controllers they made themselves.

    Decoupled feedforward-feedback periodic event-triggered control for disturbance rejection
    (Elsevier, 2021-04-14) Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Guinaldo Losada, María; Guzmán, José Luis; Dormido Canto, Sebastián
    In this paper, feedforward and feedback controllers are studied considering decoupled periodic event-triggering mechanisms for output and disturbance sensors. Stability and robustness conditions for linear systems are obtained considering transportation delays and actuator saturation following the Lyapunov-Krasovskii procedure. A numerical example shows that the proposed control strategy reduces the communication between sensors and controller significantly, while the system performance is not deteriorated.

    A bibliometric analysis of off-line handwritten document analysis literature (1990–2020)
    (Elsevier, 2022-05) Ruiz Parrado, Victoria; Vélez, José F.; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Sánchez Ávila, Ángel
    Providing computers with the ability to process handwriting is both important and challenging, since many difficulties (e.g., different writing styles, alphabets, languages, etc.) need to be overcome for addressing a variety of problems (text recognition, signature verification, writer identification, word spotting, etc.). This paper reviews the growing literature on off-line handwritten document analysis over the last thirty years. A sample of 5389 articles is examined using bibliometric techniques. Using bibliometric techniques, this paper identifies (i) the most influential articles in the area, (ii) the most productive authors and their collaboration networks, (iii) the countries and institutions that have led research on the topic, (iv) the journals and conferences that have published most papers, and (v) the most relevant research topics (and their related tasks and methodologies) and their evolution over the years.

    A novel approach to periodic event-triggered control: Design and application to the inverted pendulum
    (ELSEVIER, 2016) Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Guinaldo Losada, María; Gordillo, Francisco; Dormido Canto, Sebastián; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4252-944X
    In this paper, periodic event-triggered controllers are proposed for the rotary inverted pendulum. The control strategy is divided in two steps: swing-up and stabilization. In both cases, the system is sampled periodically but the control actions are only computed at certain instances of time (based on events), which are a subset of the sampling times. For the stabilization control, the asymptotic stability is guaranteed applying the Lyapunov–Razumikhin theorem for systems with delays. This result is applicable to general linear systems and not only to the inverted pendulum. For the swing-up control, a trigger function is provided from the derivative of the Lyapunov function for the swing-up control law. Experimental results show a significant improvement with respect to periodic control in the number of control actions.

    Periodic Event-Triggered Swing-Up Control of the Inverted Pendulum
    (Springer, 2016) Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Gordillo, F.; Guinaldo Losada, María; Dormido Canto, Sebastián; Garrido, Paulo; Soares, Filomena; Moreira, António Paulo
    In this paper, a novel strategy for swinging up an inverted pendulum is proposed. The strategy combines an energy-based control law with an event triggering condition to minimize transmissions, protect actuators and save energy. In addition, the strategy is periodic event-triggered, which provides two main advantages: An analytical way to determine a priori the sampling period to guarantee the appropriate behavior and an easy implementation in real prototypes.

    Revisiting the simplified IMC tuning rules for low-order controllers: Novel 2DoF feedback controller
    (The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2020) Rodríguez, Carlos; Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Guzmán, José Luis; Berenguel, Manuel; Hägglund, Tore
    This paper revisites the direct synthesis tuning method of continuous-time low-order controllers, and specially PID controllers, for control of time-delayed single-input single-output processes. A setpoint prefilter is included to improve the servo response and integrating load disturbances are accounted for. Robustness is addressed by the feedback controller to obtain the desired maximum sensitivity value. Similar results in step disturbance compensation are obtained with simpler analytical tuning rules when compared to recently reported methods. However, the proposed procedure enables to compensate integrating load disturbances, which are not handled in the other methods.

    Periodic event-triggered targeted shape control of Lagrangian systems with discrete-time delays
    (ELSEVIER, 2021) Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Colombo, Leonardo; Guinaldo Losada, María; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6493-6113
    We study the problem of periodic event-triggered targeted formation control for multi-agent Lagrangian systems. We assume that the equations of motion of each agent are derived from a Lagrangian function. Besides, each agent has information about a predefined convex set as a targeted set. The goal of the agents is to achieve the desired formation in the targeted sets, while the information is asynchronously shared by a periodic event-triggering specification, and there is also a time-delay in their communication. A novel distributed control law is proposed for the agents to reach the goal while their velocities are driven to zero. Applications and simulations are provided to validate the theoretical results.

    Event-based Control: A Bibliometric Analysis of Twenty Years of Research
    (IEEE, 2020-03-04) Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Guinaldo Losada, María; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Chacón, Jesús; Vargas, Héctor; Sánchez, José; Sánchez Moreno, José; Dormido Canto, Sebastián
    The potential benefits of networked control systems are tremendous, as they can be easily upgraded by just including new components (i.e., sensors, actuators, or controllers), avoiding any further modifications to their structure. A critical approach to unleash such potential benefits is event-based control, where the system output turns to be sampled on demand, instead of being sampled constantly at rigid periods of time. This paper analyzes from a bibliometric point of view the literature published for the last twenty years on event-based control, identifying the most relevant articles, authors, institutions, and journals. Moreover, the principal topics, motivations, and problems faced by the researchers are discussed, identifying distinct challenges and opportunities for future research.
