Αγαπητά μέλη της κοινότητας του Πολυτεχνείου Κρήτης,
τη Δευτέρα 5 Μαρτίου, στις 16:00, στο αμφιθέατρο του κτιρίου επιστημών, θα δώσει ομιλία ο Καθηγητής Rafael Vazquez (http://aero.us.es/rvazquez/rvazquez.htm) από το Πανεπιστήμιο της Σεβίλλης, με τίτλο
"Backstepping Control of PDEs: Basic Theory and Some Recent Results"
Περίληψη της ομιλίας και βιογραφικό ακολουθούν.
Abstract:
PDE backstepping as it is known today was first introduced in the seminal work of Smyshlyaev and Krstic [1]. Their approach, first developed for a general 1-D linear reaction-diffusion-advection PDE, is based on a strategy of first design (in the continuum setting) and then discretize (for implementation and simulation). This presentation will start by introducing the method and explaining some of its basic ingredients (target system, transformation, kernel equations); then, an overview of some of the most recent results will be given, namely: Control of coupled hyperbolic systems [2], control of coupled parabolic systems [3], bilateral control [4], and backstepping for higher-dimensional domains [5]. These results will allow the audience to understand how the three basic ingredients change for different applications. The talk will be finished by introducing some open problems in backstepping whose solution would allow further extensions of the method.
