Given a nonlinear discrete-time system, previous works exist that compute invariant sets as finite unions of boxes. Set inversion algorithms based on interval arithmetic are used to obtain inner approximations of the one ...

The performance and success of model-based leak localization methods applied to water networks highly depends on the uncertainty of the system considered. One of the main sources of uncertainty in these networks are the ...

Through this work a deep understanding of the backstepping control technique is sought when applied over non-affine systems. It is shown that in this case appears the necessity to bound the value of internal states and ...

This paper deals with the problem of estimating external disturbances acting upon aerial vehicles. First, a dynamic model based on the linear and spin momentum equations of rigid bodies is presented. This model renders the ...

Monitoring devices installed in a huge system like water distribution networks imply a high cost. This cost includes installation and maintenance. Thus, the placement of these devices must be optimal. The optimal sensor ...
