Fractional-order Systems and Controls details the use of fractional calculus in the description and modeling of systems, and in a range of control design and practical applications. It is largely self-contained, covering the fundamentals of fractional calculus together with some analytical and numerical techniques and providing MATLAB® codes for the simulation of fractional-order control (FOC) systems. Many different FOC schemes are presented for control and dynamic systems problems. Practical material relating to a wide variety of applications is also provided. All the control schemes and applications are presented in the monograph with either system simulation results or real experimental results, or both. Fractional-order Systems and Controls provides readers with a basic understanding of FOC concepts and methods, so they can extend their use of FOC in other industrial system applications, thereby expanding their range of disciplines by exploiting this versatile new set of control techniques.
Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Doctor Concepción A. Monje has been working on fractional derivatives and their applications for over seven years being author and co-author of over 40 technical papers mostly related to fractional-order controllers. Her research area focuses on the tuning and auto-tuning of fractional-order controllers for the control of industrial processes, including servomechanisms, pneumatic and liquid level systems. She has collaborated with the CRONE (Commande Robuste Ordre Non Entier) team from the Ecole Nationale Supérieure d’Électronique, Informatique et Radiocommunications of Bordeaux, publishing several works related to the tuning of fractional-order controllers and co-organizing the 2nd IFAC Workshop on Fractional Differentiation and its Applications (FDA’06). She has also worked on the application of fractional-order controllers to the control of flexible manipulators, in collaboration with the Electrical, Electronic, Control and Communications Engineering Department of the Technic High School of Industrial Engineers of the University of Castilla La-Mancha, Spain. Her collaborations in this field also extend to the Center for Self-Organizing and Intelligent System of the Utah State University, in USA, where she was invited to deliver a research lecture on design of fractional-order controllers to Ph.D. students and a joint public lecture on this topic to members of the IEEE Control Systems Society San Diego Section. She has co-chaired international conferences and she has been a member of international program committees. She has been involved in several international and national research and industrial projects, and she has reviewed articles for several international journals and conferences of relevance.
