Abstract
The problem of designing a globally exponentially convergent observer for a class of (linear in transport and nonlinear in generation) semi-linear parabolic distributed systems is addressed within a matrix inequality framework, yielding (i) sufficient convergence conditions with physical meaning and (ii) the weight of a Lyapunov functional as design degree of freedom. The proposed approach is illustrated and tested with a representative case example in chemical reaction engineering.
