Dynamic iteration schemes and port-Hamiltonian formulation in coupled DAE circuit simulation

Electric circuits are usually described by charge- and flux-oriented modified nodal analysis. In this paper, we derive models as port-Hamiltonian systems on several levels: overall systems, multiply coupled systems and systems within dynamic iteration procedures. To this end, we introduce new classes of port-Hamiltonian differential-algebraic equations. Thereby, we additionally allow for nonlinear dissipation on a subspace of the state space. Both, each subsystem and the overall system, possess a port-Hamiltonian structure. A structural analysis is performed for the new setups. Dynamic iteration schemes are investigated and we show that the Jacobi approach as well as an adapted Gauss-Seidel approach lead to port-Hamiltonian differential-algebraic equations.

Vector relative degree and funnel control for differential-algebraic systems

We consider tracking control for multi-input multi-output differential-algebraic systems. First, the concept of vector relative degree is generalized for linear systems and we arrive at the novel concept of "truncated vector relative degree", and we derive a new normal form. Thereafter, we consider a class of nonlinear functional differential-algebraic systems which comprises linear systems with truncated vector relative degree. For this class we introduce a feedback controller which achieves that, for a given sufficiently smooth reference signal, the tracking error evolves within a prespecified performance funnel. We illustrate our results by an example of a robotic manipulator.

The SDA Method for Numerical Solution of Lur'e Equations

We introduce a numerical method for the numerical solution of the so-called Lur'e matrix equations that arise in balancing-related model reduction and linear-quadratic infinite time horizon optimal control. Based on the fact that the set of solutions can be characterized in terms of deflating subspaces of even matrix pencils, an iterative scheme is derived that converges linearly to the maximal solution.
