AS2M : "Course on "Modeling and Control of Distributed Parameter Systems: the Port Hamiltonian Approach"

The course "Modeling and Control of Distributed Parameter Systems: the Port Hamiltonian Approach" will be held from Monday 8 April 2024 to Friday 12 April 2024 at Supmicrotech, Besançon, France in the context of the 2024 International Graduate School on Control (EECI-IGSC-2024. The course is intended for PhD students and young researchers. 

This course presents a system control-oriented approach to modeling, analysis, and control of distributed parameter systems (DPS), i.e., systems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs). This class of systems is more and more encountered in control engineering due to the increased use of complex, heterogeneous and smart materials in applications. Analysis and control of this class of systems is thus of high theoretical and practical interest, especially when considering the evolution of computing capacities that allows to deal with very high order systems. The formalism used in this course is the port-Hamiltonian framework. It formalizes the basic interconnection laws together with the power-conserving elements by a geometric (interconnection) structure, and defines the Hamiltonian function as the total energy stored in a system. The aim of this course is to show how this formalism can be advantageously used to study stability and derive simple and physically consistent control laws for the stabilization of linear infinite dimensional systems. The different parts of this course are also illustrated through physical examples such as electro-magnetic systems, transmission lines, beam equations, linearized shallow water equations, Korteweg-de Vries equations, reaction-transport problems including chemical processes, population dynamics, etc.
