ABSTRACT

As mentioned, the tremendous advances in computer technology over the past two decades has supported a strong proliferation of computational-based control system design methodologies. The present book, to a large extent, is to tap into this new computation-based design paradigm of feedback, minimizing analytical derivation as much as possible. In Part I of this book, we introduced the algorithms to numerically generate a finite element tensor product (TP) type polytopic model, or TP model for short, for a given quasi-linear parameter-varying (qLPV) system. In Part II, we will describe the computation-based methodologies of control system design using the TP model representation. Then in Part III, a number of specific applications on the TP model control system design method will be given.
