Feedback Stabilization of Quasi Nonintegrable Hamiltonian Systems by Using Lyapunov Exponent

A procedure for designing a feedback control to asymptotically stabilize, with probability one, a quasi nonintegrable Hamiltonian system is proposed. First, the motion equations of a system are reduced to a one-dimensional averaged Ito stochastic differential equation for controlled Hamiltonian by using the stochastic averaging method for quasi nonintegrable Hamiltonian systems. Second, a dynamical programming equation for the ergodic control problem of the averaged system with undetermined cost function is established based on the dynamical programming principle. This equation is then solved to yield the optimal control law. Third, a formula for the Lyapunov exponent of the completely averaged Ito equation is derived by introducing a new norm for the definitions of stochastic stability and Lyapunov exponent in terms of the square root of Hamiltonian. The asymptotic stability with probability one of the originally controlled system is analysed approximately by using the Lyapunov exponent. Finally, the cost function is determined by the requirement of stabilizing the system. Two examples are given to illustrate the application of the proposed procedure and the effectiveness of control on stabilizing the system.

Optimal Bounded Control for Minimizing the Response of Quasi Non-Integrable Hamiltonian Systems

A strategy for designing optimal bounded control to minimize theresponse of quasi non-integrable Hamiltonian systems is proposed basedon the stochastic averaging method for quasi non-integrable Hamiltoniansystems and the stochastic dynamical programming principle. Theequations of motion of a controlled quasi non-integrable Hamiltoniansystem are first reduced to an one-dimensional averaged Ito stochasticdifferential equation for the Hamiltonian by using the stochasticaveraging method for quasi non-integrable Hamiltonian systems. Then, thedynamical programming equation for the control problem of minimizing theresponse of the averaged system is formulated based on the dynamicalprogramming principle. The optimal control law is derived from thedynamical programming equation and control constraints without solvingthe equation. The response of optimally controlled systems is predictedthrough solving the Fokker–Planck–Kolmogrov (FPK) equation associatedwith completely averaged Ito equation. Finally, two examples are workedout in detail to illustrate the application and effectiveness of theproposed control strategy.

Stochastic stabilization of quasi non-integrable Hamiltonian systems

A procedure for designing a feedback control to asymptotically stabilize in probability a quasi non-integrable Hamiltonion system is proposed. First, an one-dimensional averaged Itô stochastic differential equation for controlled Hamiltonian is derived from given equations of motion of the system by using the stochastic averaging method for quasi non-integrable Hamiltonian systems. Second, a dynamical programming equation for an ergodic control problem with undetermined cost function is established based on the stochastic dynamical programming principle and solved to yield the optimal control law. Third, the asymptotic stability in probability of the system is analysed by examining the sample behaviors of the completely averaged Itô differential equation at its two boundaries. Finally, the cost function and the optimal control forces are determined by the requirement of stabilizing the system. Two examples are given to illustrate the application of the proposed procedure and the effect of control on the stability of the system.

Feedback minimization of first-passage failure of quasi non-integrable Hamiltonian systems

The non-linear stochastic optimal control of quasi non-integrable Hamiltonian systems for minimizing their first-passage failure is investigated. A controlled quasi non-integrable Hamiltonian system is reduced to an one-dimensional controlled diffusion process of averaged Hamiltonian by using the stochastic averaging method for quasi non-integrable Hamiltonian systems. The dynamical programming equations and their associated boundary and final time conditions for the problems of maximization of reliability and of maximization of mean first-passage time are formulated. The optimal control law is derived from the dynamical programming equations and the control constraints. The dynamical programming equations for maximum reliability problem and for maximum mean first-passage time problem are finalized and their relationships to the backward Kolmogorov equation for the reliability function and the Pontryagin equation for mean first-passage time, respectively, are pointed out. The boundary condition at zero Hamiltonian is discussed. Two examples are worked out to illustrate the application and effectiveness of the proposed procedure.
