International audienceIn this article, we introduce event-based boundary controls for 1-dimensional linear hyperbolic systems of conservation laws. Inspired by event-triggered controls developed for finite-dimensional systems, an extension to the infinite dimensional case by means of Lyapunov techniques, is studied. The main contribution of the paper lies in the definition of two event-triggering conditions, by which global exponential stability and well-posedness of the system under investigation is achieved. Some numerical simulations are performed for the control of a system describing traffic flow on a roundabout

In this paper, the problem of fixed-time stabilization of constant-parameter reaction-diffusion partial differential equations by means of continuous boundary time-varying feedbacks is considered. Moreover, the time of convergence can be prescribed in the design. The design of time-varying feedbacks is carried out based on the backstepping approach. Using a suitable target system with a time varying-coefficient, one can state that the resulting kernel of the backstepping transformation is timevarying and rendering the control feedback to be time-varying as well. Explicit representations of the kernel solution in terms of generalized Laguerre polynomials and modified Bessel functions are derived. The fixed-time stability property is then proved. A simulation example is presented to illustrate the main results.
