Prof. Francesco Ferrante, PhD from the Department of Engineering, Università degli Studi di Perugia, will hold a seminar about hybrid dynamical systems. 📍 Sala Alessandri, Department of Engineering 📆 January 17th 2025, 15:00h Abstract: Hybrid dynamical systems, when broadly understood, encompass dynamical systems where states or dynamics can change continuously as well as instantaneously. Hybrid control systems arise when hybrid control algorithms—algorithms which involve logic, timers, clocks, and other digital devices—are applied to classical dynamical systems or systems that are themselves hybrid. Hybrid control may be used for improved performance and robustness properties compared to classical control, and hybrid dynamics may be unavoidable due to the interplay between digital and analog components of a system. In this talk, I will provide an overview on hybrid dynamical systems with a special focus on stability analysis. In particular, I will show how classical results available for continuous-time and discrete-time systems can be obtained by specializing more general results for hybrid systems. Examples and applications will illustrate the theoretical concepts and hopefully spark new ideas. Bio: Francesco Ferrante received the B.Sc. (Laurea) degree in control engineering from the Sapienza Università di Roma, Italy, in 2010, the M.Sc. (Laurea Magistrale) degree in control engineering from the Università degli Studi di Roma Tor Vergata, Italy in 2012, and the Ph.D. degree in control theory from the Institut supérieur de l’aéronautique et de l’espace (SUPAERO) Toulouse, France, in 2015. In 2014, he held a Visiting Scholar position at the Department of Computer Engineering, University of California Santa Cruz.
