Abstract
In this work, we develop a method for nonlinear feedback control of the roughness of a one-dimensional surface whose evolution is described by the stochastic Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation (KSE), a fourth-order nonlinear stochastic partial differential equation. We initially formulate the stochastic KSE into a system of infinite nonlinear stochastic ordinary differential equations by using modal decomposition. A finite-dimensional approximation of the stochastic KSE is then derived that captures the dominant mode contribution to the surface roughness. A nonlinear feedback controller is then designed based on the finite-dimensional approximation to control the surface roughness. An analysis of the closed-loop nonlinear infinite-dimensional system is performed to characterize the closed-loop performance enforced by the nonlinear feedback controller in the closed-loop infinite-dimensional system. The effectiveness of the proposed nonlinear controller and the advantages of the nonlinear controller over a linear controller resulting from the linearization of the nonlinear controller around the zero solution are demonstrated through numerical simulations.
