Abstract

This paper investigates the use of linear parameter-varying (LPV) systems in the analysis and controller design for a nuclear pressurised water reactor. The synthesis technique incorporates a priori bounds on the rate of variation of the parameter, which leads to less conservative designs. The synthesis procedure is formulated as a linear matrix inequality (LMI)
