Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
We consider the flow control problem for a general class of compartmental nonlinear systems, which can be associated with a graph whose nodes represent subsystems with their own internal dynamics, and whose arcs represent flow links among them. We consider a network-decentralized control: each agent controls a link between two nodes and decides its actions based on the states of these nodes only. We first provide general necessary and sufficient stabilizability conditions, proving that suitable network decentralized strategies assure robust stability. We also show that, if all the subsystems at the nodes are marginally stable, a proper network-decentralized strategy asymptotically assures the minimum-norm flow, without requiring communication among agents.
