There are a number of competing scientific hypotheses about the structure and parameters
of the human control system concerned with balance. System identification techniques have potential
to distinguish between such competing hypotheses. As a step towards this goal, the data from an initial
series of experiments involving balancing an inverted pendulum by a human via a joystick was analysed
using a recently-developed two-stage continuous-time identification method.

Periodic Signals Using Predictive Control with Constraints},

This paper proposes a continuous-time model predictive control design for disturbance
rejection and set-point following of periodic signals. By assuming input disturbance in the form of
sinusoid, the periodic frequency is embedded into the design model. Hence, from internal model
principle, the steady-state error of the model predictive control system is ensured to be zero for
both disturbance rejection and set-point following. Furthermore, with the design framework of model
predictive control, hard constraints on the derivative and amplitude of the control signals are imposed
as part of the performance specification. Simulation studies have been used to show the efficacy of the
design with or without hard constraints.

abstract = {
A piezoelectric tube is shown to have linear, but non-minimum phase dynamics. The
main impediment to the actuation of this piezoelectric tube is the presence of a low-frequency
resonant mode which causes mechanical vibrations. A physical-model-based control method
is extended to non-minimum phase systems in general and successfully applied to damp the
resonant mode; leading to a vibration-free actuation of the piezoelectric tube.
