14h00-15h00 – Salle du conseil (L2S) Stability and stabilization of black-box switched linear systems: Probabilistic guarantees and sample complexity Zheming Wang (Université Catholique de Louvain, Belgium) Abstract. Data-driven methods have been quite a success in handling complex dynamical systems. In this presentation, I will talk about stability analysis of a particular class of hybrid systems, […]
10h00-11h00 – Salle du conseil (L2S) Output regulation for infinite-dimensional systems: A forwarding-based approach Nicolas Vanspranghe (GIPSA-lab) Abstract. The output regulation problem for infinite-dimensional nonlinear systems is considered. In particular, we allow the output operator to be unbounded, which is the case in boundary control problems, and we assume the original dynamics to be a […]
11h00-12h00 – Salle du conseil (L2S) Minimal 2-spheres in ellipsoids via global bifurcation theory Paolo Piccione (Universidade de São Paulo, Brazil) Abstract. I will give an overview of classical results in variational Bifurcation Theory, present some applications to geometric variational problems, and discuss a concrete problem concerning the multiplicity of minimal 2-spheres inside sufficiently elongated […]
11/05/2021 – 16h30-17h30 – Online Federated stochastic control of numerous heterogeneous energy storage systems Emmanuel Gobet (CMAP, École Polytechnique, Palaiseau) Abstract. We propose a stochastic control problem to control cooperatively Thermostatically Controlled Loads (TCLs) to promote power balance in electricity networks. We develop a method to solve this stochastic control problem with a decentralized architecture, […]
06/04/2021 – 14h00-15h00 – Online Dynamics of continuum and soft robots: a strain parametrization based approach Frédéric Boyer (LS2N, IMT-Atlantique, Nantes) Abstract. In this seminar we propose a new dynamic model of Cosserat beams in view of its application to continuum and soft robotics manipulation and locomotion. In contrast to usual approaches, it is based […]
