This paper presents a new geometric adaptive control system with state inequality constraints for the attitude dynamics of a rigid body. The control system is designed such that the desired attitude is asymptotically stabilized, while the controlled attitude trajectory avoids undesired regions defined by an inequality constraint. In addition, we develop an adaptive update law that enables attitude stabilization in the presence of unknown disturbances. The attitude dynamics and the proposed control systems are developed on the special orthogonal group such that singularities and ambiguities of other attitude parameterizations, such as Euler angles and quaternions are completely avoided. The effectiveness of the proposed control system is demonstrated through numerical simulations and experimental results.

In this paper, we study the quadrotor UAV attitude control on SO(3) in the presence of unknown disturbances and model uncertainties. L1 adaptive control for UAVs using Euler angles/quaternions is shown to exhibit robustness and precise attitude tracking in the presence of disturbances and uncertainties. However, it is well known that dynamical models and controllers that use Euler angle representations are prone to singularities and typically have smaller regions of attraction while quaternion representations are subject to the unwinding phenomenon. To avoid such complexities, we present a Geo…

The primal-dual active set method is observed to be the limit of a sequence of penalty formulations. Using this perspective, we propose a penalty method that adaptively becomes the active set method as the residual of the iterate decreases. The adaptive penalty method (APM) therewith combines the main advantages of both methods, namely the ease of implementation of penalty methods and the exact imposition of inequality constraints inherent to the active set method. The scheme can be considered a quasi-Newton method in which the Jacobian is approximated using a penalty parameter. This spatially…

The paper develops the Adaptive Dynamic Programming Toolbox (ADPT), which solves optimal control problems for continuous-time nonlinear systems. Based on the adaptive dynamic programming technique, the ADPT computes optimal feedback controls from the system dynamics in the model-based working mode, or from measurements of trajectories of the system in the model-free working mode without the requirement of knowledge of the system model. Multiple options are provided such that the ADPT can accommodate various customized circumstances. Compared to other popular software toolboxes for optimal cont…
In this paper, we study the strong convergence of two Mann-type inertial extragradient algorithms, which are devised with a new step size, for solving a variational inequality problem with a monotone and Lipschitz continuous operator in real Hilbert spaces. Strong convergence theorems for our algorithms are proved without the prior knowledge of the Lipschitz constant of the operator. Finally, we provide some numerical experiments to illustrate the performances of the proposed algorithms and provide a comparison with related ones.
Occupation measures and linear matrix inequality (LMI) relax-ations (called the moment sums of squares or Lasserre hierarchy) have been used previously as a means for solving control law verification and validation (VV) problems. However, these methods have been restricted to relatively simple control laws and a limited number of states. In this document, we extend these methods to model reference adaptive control (MRAC) configurations typical of the aircraft industry. The main contribution is a validation scheme that exploits the specific nonlinearities and structure of MRAC. A nonlinear F-16…
We consider the problem of minimization of a convex function on a simple set with convex non-smooth inequality constraint and describe first-order methods to solve such problems in different situations: smooth or non-smooth objective function; convex or strongly convex objective and constraint; deterministic or randomized information about the objective and constraint. We hope that it is convenient for a reader to have all the methods for different settings in one place. Described methods are based on Mirror Descent algorithm and switching subgradient scheme. One of our focus is to propose, fo…

Computing optimal feedback controls for nonlinear systems generally requires solving Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations, which are notoriously difficult when the state dimension is large. Existing strategies for high-dimensional problems often rely on specific, restrictive problem structures, or are valid only locally around some nominal trajectory. In this paper, we propose a data-driven method to approximate semi-global solutions to HJB equations for general high-dimensional nonlinear systems and compute candidate optimal feedback controls in real-time. To accomplish this, we model solu…
