个人简介
Andy had a truly distinguished career. His contributions to UC Berkeley go well beyond the call of duty and his research achievements well exceeded the standards of excellence in his field. As stated earlier, Andy is recognized as a major early pioneer of robust control theory. In his Ph.D. dissertation research, he established the structured singular value (µ) as a powerful design tool for multivariable control system synthesis. The structured singular value is a linear algebra tool developed to study a particular class of perturbation problems arising in robust feedback control of multivariable systems. Andy published several papers to introduce the method to the control community. His most cited paper is “The complex structured singular value,” in the IFAC Journal of Automatica (1993). “Linear, multivariable robust control with a µ perspective,” in the ASME Journal of Dynamic Systems, Measurement and Control (1993), is another important paper in which he presented a step-by-step approach showing how this control synthesis tool can be applied to a pitch axis controller of an experimental, highly maneuverable airplane and the angular velocity control of a satellite spinning about one of its principal axes.
While most of control theorists limit their contributions to the development of new mathematical and algorithmic results, Andy additionally devoted considerable amounts of effort and time to implement his new theory using computer aided design (CAD) tools for analysis and synthesis of multivariable robust control systems. Professor Kameshwar Poolla, one of Andy’s control colleagues in the Mechanical Engineering Department, states, “The industrial impact of Andy’s work is profound. Together with the late Gary Balas, Andy wrote a comprehensive set of software tools (called the Robust Control Toolbox) for control system design. These are the de facto standard worldwide, and are used by NASA, Boeing, Airbus, Lockheed, and many other leading companies. Hundreds of Universities have integrated his software tools in their curriculum. Andy offers frequent short courses to practitioners in control system design based on his research and software tools. These are deeply influential. Andy has truly transformed the practice of industrial control systems design. His research has changed this discipline from an arcane art to a systematic science and carried it into the 21st century.”
