    Distributed reconfiguration of distance-based formations with virtual surface constraints
    (IEEE, 2024) Guinaldo Losada, María; Sánchez Moreno, José; S. Zaragoza; Mañas Álvarez, Francisco José
    This paper proposes a method to recover from the failure or loss of a subset of agents in a distance-based formation problem, where the system is initially deployed forming a virtual shield embedded in the 3D space. First, a distributed algorithm is proposed to restore the topology, which is a Delaunay triangulation. After that, the nodes execute a distance-based distributed control law that considers adaptive target distances. These values are computed in parallel by the nodes, which try to reach an agreement with some constraints, given by the desired shield shape. The updating policy is based on events. The results are illustrated through simulation examples.

    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.

    A novel approach for periodic event-triggering based on general quadratic functions
    (IEEE, 2015) Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Guinaldo Losada, María; Dormido Canto, Sebastián
    This paper is concerned with periodic event-triggered control, which avoids the continuous monitoring of the state of the system while reducing the number of control updates. A new form of quadratic event-triggering condition is proposed to enlarge the inter-event times. The asymptotic stability criteria is analyzed by means of Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals and the stability condition is expressed in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Simulation and experimental results are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

    Stability of output event-based control systems through quadratic trigger functions
    (IEEE, 2015-10) Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Guinaldo Losada, María; Dormido Canto, Sebastián
    The design of event-based controllers for systems with unknown states is investigated in this paper. The case of general quadratic triggering conditions that depend on the estimated state given by a Luenberger observer is studied. Novel frameworks are proposed for continuous and periodic event-based control providing criteria for asymptotic stability with the form of Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs). The frameworks are tested in simulation through a challenging system, such as the double rotary inverted pendulum.

    Fuzzy logic vs analytic controllers on a non-linear system
    (World Scientific, 2014) Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Guinaldo Losada, María; Dormido Canto, Sebastián; Santos, M.
    In this paper, an intelligent control of the rotary inverted pendulum by fuzzy logic is presented. Specifically, the design consists of a Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model to approximate the non-linear system to a succession of points where a linear system is described. A feedback gain is obtained that allows the stabilization of the inverted pendulum in a higher attractor than in the case of analytic Full State Feedback controller or Linear Quadratic Regulator.

    Distributed targeted distance-based formation control for mechanical systems
    (IEEE Xplore, 2020-07-20) Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Colombo, Leonardo J.; Guinaldo Losada, María
    This paper studies the problem of distributed targeted distance-based formation control for mechanical systems. The problem consists on finding a distributed control law such that if each agent observes a convex set as a targeted set, and also the relative position of their nearest neighbors, then the agents must achieve the desired formation in these sets while its velocities are driven to zero. We study the problem for agents with a time-delay communication in the measurements of the relative positions and where the motion of each agent is determined by a Lagrangian function. Simulation are given to validate the theoretical result.

    An Object-Oriented Library for Process Control Simulations in MATLAB
    (ELSEVIER, 2017) Rodríguez, Carlos; Guinaldo Losada, María; Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Guzmán, José L.
    This paper presents a library of MATLAB classes developed to provide a framework to allow performing easy and scalable process control simulations. The proposed object-oriented tool features the basic components of a control loop including: processes, controllers, sensors, actuators and connection links. The simulator can be configured to carry out simulations with continuous and/or discrete elements, and/or include event-triggered capabilities in a straightforward manner. The benefits of the proposed library are shown with the rapid development and simulation of a quadruple-tank system that is controlled by means of a PI controller.
