Abstract One of the great concerns when tackling nonlinear systems is how to design a robust controller that is able to deal with uncertainty. Many researchers have been working on developing such type of controllers. One of the most efficient techniques employed to develop such controllers is sliding mode control (SMC). However, the low order SMC suffers from chattering problem which harm the actuators of the control system and thus unsuitable to be used in many practical applications. In this paper, the drawbacks of low order traditional sliding mode control (FOTSMC) are resolved by presenting a novel adaptive radial basis function… More >

Abstract Electromagnets are commonly used as support for machine components and parts in magnetic bearing systems (MBSs). Compared with conventional mechanical bearings, the magnetic bearings have less noise, friction, and vibration, but the magnetic force has a highly nonlinear relationship with the control current and the air gap. This research presents a dynamic sliding mode backstepping control (DSMBC) designed to track the height position of modeless vertical MBS. Because MBS is nonlinear with model uncertainty, the design of estimator should be able to solve the lumped uncertainty. The proposed DSMBC controller can not only stabilize the nonlinear system under mismatched uncertainties,… More >

Abstract

This paper presents the design and implementation of Adaptive Generalized Dynamic Inversion (AGDI) to track the position of a Linear Flexible Joint Cart (LFJC) system along with vibration suppression of the flexible joint. The proposed AGDI control law will be comprised of two control elements. The baseline (continuous) control law is based on principle of conventional GDI approach and is established by prescribing the constraint dynamics of controlled state variables that reflect the control objectives. The control law is realized by inverting the prescribed dynamics using dynamically scaled Moore-Penrose generalized inversion. To boost the robust attributes against system nonlinearities, parametric… More >

Abstract A complete modeling (including the actuator dynamics) of a robot manipulator that uses three-phase induction motors is presented in this paper. A control scheme is designed to synchronize robot manipulators actuated by induction motors under a masterslave scheme in the case where the joint velocity of the slave robots is estimated. All of the research on the synchronization of robot manipulators assumes the use of ideal actuators to drive the joints; for that reason, in this work, a three-phase induction motor is considered to be a direct-drive actuator for each joint. An entire model of the mated system is obtained… More >
