The main interest of the present thesis is the constrained control of time-delay system, more specifically taking into consideration the discretization problem (due...

This manuscript reviews contributions to the development of systematic methods for analysis and control of periodic uncertain systems. An important part of this thesis...

Narrow Tilting Vehicles (NTV) are the convergence of a car and a motorcycle. One meter wide, these vehicles are designed for one or two people sitting the one in front...

The increasing number of elderly in the world reveals today new societal challenges, particularly in terms of healthcare and assistance services. With recent advances...

Flexible robots are becoming more and more common in practical applications. This type of robots is characterized by the use of lightweight materials, which allows...

National audience

The main contributions of this thesis concern the development of methods for the stability analysis and the synthesis of controllers for linear systems, either...

The work achieved in this PhD thesis is dedicated to applications of advanced control methodologies to problems currently faced in the automotive field. Three main...

The present thesis addresses the problem of motion control of flexible-joint robot manipulators using motor sensors only. The global objective is to guarantee tracking...

Since the creation of internal combustion engines, research on gasoline and diesel engines were developed independently. To reduce the time and cost of developing an...
