Abstract

In this paper, we evaluate the stability margin of a Fiat Dedra engine model to explore possible applications of theoretical achievements in the parametric approach to robust control problems. The study is based on two versions of the model with uncertainties. One is the original model which has a multilinear characteristic polynomial, while the other is an affine-linearised model which is obtained by the affine-linearisation technique proposed in this paper. By applying some newly developed theoretical tools in the literature, the stability margins of the affine-linearised model in terms of the l_\infty norm and the l_2 norm, and the stability margin of the original model in terms of the l_\infty norm are obtained.
