A unified port - hamiltonian approach for modelling and stabilizing control of engineering systems

This work deals with systems whose dynamics are affine in the control input. Such

dynamics are considered to be significantly differentially expressed in a canonical form, namely

the quadratic (pseudo) port-Hamiltonian representation, in order to explore further some

structural properties usable for the tracking-error passivity-based control design without the

(generalized) canonical transformation. Different kinds of linear and nonlinear engineering

systems including an open isothermal homogeneous system and a continuous biochemical

fermenter are used to illustrate the approach.

Keywords: engineering systems, quadratic port-Hamiltonian representation, passivity, tracking-error

A unified port - hamiltonian approach for modelling and stabilizing control of engineering systems
 (32). Let M(x) be the square matrix given by (
– 
) it follows that 
 ( ) ( ) (
). It can easily be checked that the separability condition (2) is met for f(x) 
above where H(x) is of the quadratic form (7) with Rdi given by (29). Using the fact that any 
square matrix can uniquely be written as sum of a symmetric and a skew-symmetric matrix 
thanks to the Toeplitz decomposition of linear algebra, one may write ( ) 
 ( ) ( ) 
 and 
 ( ) 
 ( ) ( ) 
 that lead to Eqs. (30) and (31), respectively. Finally, the damping matrix 
R(x) (31) is symmetric positive definite because all the principal minors of R(x) are (strictly) 
positive due to the fact that k1 = k2. The latter completes the proof. 
3.2. Case study 2: A continuous biochemical fermenter system 
We consider next the dynamic model of a second order continuous biochemical fermenter 
described by the equations (see Section 4 in [3]) 
 {

 (34) 
where: 
 cx and cs denote the cell and substrate concentrations, respectively; 
 The term µ = µ(cs) denotes the specific cell growth rate; 
 q is the volumetric inflow rate of the reactor and is equal to the outflow rate; 
 V is the total reactor volume and is assumed to be constant; 
 Sf is the feed of substrate entering the reactor; 
 Y is the biomass/substrate yield coefficient. Let us state the following proposition. 
Let us state the following proposition.

 (40) 
From this, the proof immediately follows by using the same arguments as done in the previous 
case study. Note that the symmetric matrix R(x) (37) is indefinite (i.e. neither positive definite 
nor negative definite). 
3.3. Further discussions 
Two of the main advantages of the quadratic (pseudo) PH representation are summarized as 
follows, (i) it circumvents the passivation design of the dynamics by input coordinate 
transformations [14] and (ii) it enables the control design via tracking-error approach with 
specific control benefits compared to the interconnection and damping assignment passivity-
based control (IDA-PBC) approach [10, 12], that is, no need to solve matching equations that are 
expressed by partial differential equations. 
In the quadratic (pseudo) PH framework, the key idea of the tracking-error passivity-based 
control approach consists in guaranteeing that the system trajectory x globally exponentially 
tracks some reference trajectory xd when time goes to infinity while xd is of the form 
 [ ( ) ( )]

where the damping injection RI(x) is a symmetric positive definite matrix to be appropriately 
chosen such that

 Rdie with e = x – xd the error state vector. At the control design stage, only m 
components of the reference trajectory xd are chosen in such a way that their time evolutions 
converge globally asymptotically or exponentially to the corresponding m-values of the desired

, that is, 
 ( 
∗ ) i = 1, . . . , m, provided that the corresponding 
m m submatrix obtained from g(x) is full rank. 
As a matter of illustration, we reconsider the Case study 2 (Subsection 3.2) where the 
specific cell growth rate µ(cs) is assumed given by the Monod-kinetics with an additional 
substrate overshoot term [3] 
 ( ) 
 (43) 
where the scalars µmax, d1 and d2 are positive. The continuous fermenter system exhibits the 
combined input-output multiplicities behaviour [3, 16] which is very challenging but interesting 
for the stabilizing control design. A three-step design procedure is provided below with the 
tracking-error passivity-based control approach. 
Step 1 (the damping injection): From the damping matrix R(x) (37) and the stabilization 
condition (42), the damping injection element RI(x) can be chosen as 
 ( ) (
 ( ) 
 ( )
 ( )
) (44) 
where δ1 and δ2 are positive. 
Step 2 (the reference trajectory): From Proposition 2 and Eqs. (41) and (44), the reference 
trajectory is given by: 
 ( ) ( ( ) )( ) 
 ( )
( ) (45) 
 ( )
 ( )
( ) ( ) ( ) (46) 
Step 3 (the control design): First, the dynamics of xd,1 is chosen to be assigned, that is, 
 ( 
∗ ) where the scalar K is positive while 
∗ is the first component of the desired set-
point ∗ ( 
∗ 
∗) . The state feedback law is then derived from (45) as 
( ( 
∗ ) ( ) ( ( ) )( ) 
 ( )
( )) (47) 
The simulation parameters can be found in Tables 1 and 2. Figure 3 shows that the 
convergence of the system state x to the desired set-point ∗ is guaranteed with the 
corresponding control input u (see Fig. 4).

In order to assess the performance of the proposed controller, we consider next the 
interconnection and damping assignment passivity-based control (IDA-PBC) approach [3, 10, 
12] for the purpose of comparison. Indeed, for the case study we are concerned with here, a 
qualified state feedback control law can be derived as [3]

in about 20 seconds, i.e. the settling time is two times faster than the one with controller (47) 
(see Figure 3). Nevertheless, if no input constraint (i.e. the input saturation or ( ) ) is 
imposed, this feature could be paid to the admissibility of the control input due to its negative 
value which is physically inacceptable as seen in Figure 6. In other words, the fermenter system 
under controller (47) may be operated with better performance (i.e. avoiding a very fast settling 
time provided by a larger domain of validity for operating conditions and initial conditions).

4. CONCLUSION 
In this work, an introductory survey of the port Hamiltonian-based modelling of linear 
electrical and mechanical systems is given. This modelling framework can be adapted for

representation. The resulting presentation enables the tracking-error passivity-based control 
approach with specific control benefits. It remains now to extend the proposed approach to large 
dimensional engineering systems.
