NON-LINEAR CONTROL
Ref: Applied Non-Linear Control
Jean-Jacques E Slotine, Weiping Li
WHY NON-LINEAR CONTROL
➤ Improvement of existing
control system
➤ Analysis of hard non-
linearities
➤ Dealing with model
uncertainties
➤ Design simplicity
NONLINEAR SYSTEM BEHAVIOR
➤ Physical systems are inherently non-linear
➤ Non-linear systems are described by no-linear differential
equations
➤ They are approximated by linear differential equation if they
operate in small range.
Example:
LIMIT CYCLES
➤ Oscillations of fixed amplitude and fixed period without external excitation
are called limit cycles.
➤ Also called self excited oscillations.
Example:
CAN BE DONE FOR FIRST ORDER SYSTEMS ALSO
SYMMETRY IN PHASE PLANE PORTRAITS
symmetry of phase plane
portrait also implies
symmetry of slope - equal in
absolute value and opposite
in sign
➤ Analytical method
➤ Method of isoclines
