Robust Stability and Control of Multi-body Ground Vehicles under Uncertainty and Failures
Ground Vehicle Dynamics– Rollover stability– Ride and Handling Performance – Stability under failures
Efforts to Collaborate with TARDEC in Warren, MI
Robust Stability and Control of Multi-body Ground Vehicles (ARO)’06-’09
Robust Stability and Control of Multi-body Ground Vehicles (ARO) ’06-’09
Develop a control algorithm for the steering command as a feedback of roll rate, scheduled in terms of forward velocity v and c.g height differential h.
Develop a `robust’ control law that will perform well in as wide velocity range as possible and in as wide changes in the cg height as possible.
The problem is challenging because the parameter values vary significantly as a function of the operating condition
So innovative feedback control schemes are needed to improve the performance of the vehicle in the presence of all these real life perturbations and even in component failures.

Qualitative (Sign) Stability of Ecology (Need Sponsorship)
Application of concepts of biology and life science to engineering systems: Qualitative (sign) stability and Robust stability (ACC’06)
Qualitative (Sign) Stability of Ecology (Need Sponsorship)
Given a matrix with only +, - and 0s (no magnitudes), get necessary and sufficient conditions for Hurwitz stability using ideas from Ecology (ACC’06, ROCOND’06)
Matrices which are sign stable are Hurwitz stable for any magnitudes we put in those locations!
But the converse is not true
Using Sign Stability of Ecology, can tabulate all the 2x2, 3x3 and 4x4 matrices which are sign stable `apriori’! Extremely interesting and amazing !
New Control Design Method using Sign Stability of Ecology
Controllers designed using Sign Stability ideas are Robust and Nonfragile (under review for ACODS’07)
They produce Controllers of Reduced Dimension and Reduced Control Effort because they `work’ with the natural dynamics rather than `fight’ with it.
Examples of Control Design Using Sign Stability include Satellite Attitude Control and Formation Flying Control
Sign Stability based Controller highly superior to Pole Placement and LQR controllers
