This paper proposes a practical method for computing the peak output of linear time-invariant and non-anticipative systems for a class of possible sets that are characterized with many bounding conditions on the two- and/or the infinity-norms of the inputs and their derivatives. The original infinite-dimensional convex optimization problem is approximated as a large-scale convex programme defined in a Euclidean space, which are associated with sparse matrices and thus can be solved efficiently in practice. The numerical results show that the method performs satisfactorily, and that using a possible set with many bounding conditions can help to reduce the design conservatism and thereby yield a better match.展开更多

Finally, a controller for a binary distillation column is designed by using the criterion in conjunction with the method of inequalities. The numerical results clearly demonstrate that the usefulness of the criterion in obtaining a design solution for the original system.展开更多
