Control of Flows: Models, Dynamic Analysis, Control Algorithms, and Computation Workshop to be held on May 31-June 1, 1999, University of California, San Diego, CA

9975522 Krstic在其存在的前4- 50年中，控制工程领域主要处理机械系统，无论是刚性或柔性的特性，都是多固体系统（其中由于流体的现象可以被视为集总参数效应）。用于流体流动系统的新的致动和感测概念和技术的出现正在为控制工程创造机会，以在许多与流动相关的应用中产生重大影响，包括过渡和分离的延迟、湍流阻力减小、混合增强、射流控制、噪声减小、化学反应、燃烧不稳定性、等离子体和聚变物理、致动器/传感器技术的进步和投资速度以及实验能力的发展已经造成了理论落后于技术的前所未有的局面。本次研讨会的目的是提供一个主要的推力，引导理论和计算人才在流控制领域的问题是相关的，并在一个更快的轨道上过渡到产品。该研讨会不打算是一个广泛的概述，而是集中在控制理论，计算和面向控制的建模的基础研究问题。流体流动的控制问题很可能在未来几十年内推动控制理论和相关领域的前沿发展。研讨会将与1999年在圣地亚哥举行的美国控制会议一起举办。研讨会很可能会吸引大量的与会者。研讨会的一项成果是所有演讲的摘要。 ***

9975522KrsticOver the first 4-5 decades of its existence, the field of control engineering dealt primarily with mechanical systems which, whether rigid or flexible in character, were multi-solid--body systems (where phenomena due to fluids can be regarded as lumped-parameter effects). The emergence of new actuation and sensing concepts and technologies for fluid flow systems is creating an opportunity for control engineering to make a major impact on a number of flow-related applications, including delay of transition and separation, turbulent drag reduction, mixing enhancement, jet control, noise reduction, chemical reactions, combustion instabilities, plasma and fusion physics, etc. The rate of progress and investment into actuator/sensor technology and the development of experimental capabilities has created an unprecedented situation that the theory is lagging behind technology. The objective of this workshop is to provide a major thrust towards channeling the theoretical and computational talent in the field of flow control towards problems that are relevant and on a faster track to transition into products. The workshop is not intended to be a broad overview but instead focus on basic research issues in control theory, computation, and control-oriented modeling. The problems of control of fluid flows are likely to drive the cutting-edge development in control theory and related fields for decades to come.The workshop will be organized in conjuction with the 1999 American Control Conference in San Diego. It is likely that the workshop will attract a significant number of conference attendees. A deliverable of the workshop will be proceedings with abstracts of all the talks. ***
