Séminaire d’Henrik Schmidt-Didlaukies (NTNU, Norvège)

4 décembre 2025 @ 14h00 – 15h00 – – Titre :  PID Control on Lie Groups – Résumé :  Many engineering control problems, such as those involving rigid-body motion, can be naturally formulated on Lie groups. However, extending classical PID control laws to Lie groups is nontrivial due to topological constraints that preclude global asymptotic stability with continuous feedback. This talk introduces basic […]

Séminaire d’Alejandro Maass Martinez

15 janvier 2026 @ 14h00 – 15h00 – – Lien Teams : cliquer ici. – Titre : Stochastic string stability in vehicle platoons: Recent results and ongoing work – Résumé : Vehicle platooning is a canonical benchmark problem in automatic control and networked systems, capturing the interaction between dynamics, communication, and scalability. While classical results on string stability often rely on idealized communication […]

Séminaire de David Meister

22 janvier 2026 @ 14h00 – 15h00 – – Lien Teams : lien teams – Titre : When event-triggered control pays off… or not: Breaking points and the nature of consistency – Résumé : In many digital control systems, sampling incurs non-negligible costs, for example due to the use of limited communication or computation resources, as is common in networked control systems. Event-triggered control […]

Séminaire de Maurice Heemels

29 janvier 2026 @ 14h00 – 15h00 – Lien visio : Teams Titre : Neuromorphic control through the eyes of hybrid systems Résumé : Neuromorphic engineering is an emerging research domain that aims to realize important implementation advantages that brain-inspired technologies can offer over classical digital technologies, including energy efficiency, adaptability, low latency, and robustness. Also, for future control systems neuromorphic engineering offers potential advantages, although […]

Séminaire de Hiba Houmsi

19 février 2026 @ 14h00 – 15h00 – Lien visio : Teams Titre : Embedded Convex Optimization for Control of Synchronous Machines Résumé : This work focuses on the practical implementation of advanced control strategies for permanent-magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs), specifically covering trajectory generation, control law synthesis, and embedded real-time computation. The work is motivated by the need to bring control theory closer to industrial practice, […]

Séminaire de Gal Barkai (CRAN)

26 février 2026 @ 14h00 – 15h00 – Lien visio : Teams Titre : Between servo regulation and agreement: the consensus protocol revisited Résumé : It can be argued that control theory emerged from three engineering objectives: i) stabilize a system, ii) reject unwanted external signals, and iii) minimize the effects of uncertainty. This is the core of the classic servo-regulation problem, where controllers […]

Séminaire de Jared Miller (ETH Zurich)

12 mars 2026 @ 14h00 – 15h00 – Lien visio : Teams Titre : Structure, Analysis, and Synthesis of First-Order Algorithms Résumé : Optimization algorithms can be interpreted through the lens of dynamical systems as the interconnection of a linear system and a set of subgradient nonlinearities. This dynamical systems formulation allows for the analysis and synthesis of optimization algorithms by solving robust control problems. In […]
