Indirect adaptive pole assignment PID controllers for unknown systems with time varying delay, is proposed. Unknown system parameters are estimated by recursive least square method, and time varying delay is estimated using indirect predictors. Since the order of parameter vectors didn't increase, the computational burden is not largely increased in spite of using indirect adaptive control method with time varying delay estimation. Computer simulation is performed to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed method.

Ballast water is carried by ships to ensure stability, trim and structural integrity. When a ship loads cargo, the ballast water is discharged. When foreign marine microorganisms are introduced into new marine environments, they pose a threat to the local marine ecological system. UV system is commonly used for the disinfection of waste and surface water. This method would not be as efficient because some species do survive to form viable populations, much of the sediment and organisms at the bottom of tanks, and may become serious pests. In this paper, we designed and implemented ballast water treatment system using fuzzy PID controller to prevent lamp damage, and to reduce the formation of the viable populations. The experiments were conducted with ballast water treatment system using fuzzy PID controller with short time exposure to the temperature above $40^{\circ}C$. This system was shown to be effective by significantly reducing bacterial population and lamp life extension through appropriate temperature of ballast water.

This paper applies the icing effect and wing rock uncertainty to small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), which have recently attracted attention. Attitude control simulations were performed using various control methods. First, the selected platform, the Skywalker X8 UAV with blended wing-body (BWB) configuration, was linearized for both its baseline form, and a form with applied icing effects. Subsequently, using MATLAB SimulinkⓇ, simulations were conducted for roll and pitch attitude control of the baseline configuration and the configuration with icing effects, employing disturbance observer-based PID control, model reference adaptive control, and model predictive control. Furthermore, the study introduced wing rock uncertainty simultaneously with icing effects on the configured model-a combination not previously explored in existing research-and conducted simulations. The performance of each control Method was compared and analyzed.

The position control accuracy of a robot arm is significantly deteriorated when a long slender arm robot is operated at a high speed. In this case, the robot arm needs to be modeled as a flexible structure, not a rigid one, and its control system needs to be designed with its elastic modes taken into account. In this paper, the vibration control scheme of a one-link flexible manipulator using adaptive input shaper in conjunction with PID controller is presented. The robot consists of a flexible arm manufactured with a thin aluminium plate, an AC servo motor with a harmonic drive for speed reduction, an optical encoder and an accelerometer. On-line identification of the vibration mode is done using the pruned decimation-in-time FFT algorithm to estimate the parameter of the input shaper. Experimental results of the flexible manipulator with a PID controller and input shaper are provided to show the effectiveness of the advocated controllers.

This paper presents a decentralized adaptive controller design for a robot manipulator to track the given desired trajectory in the joint space. The controller is of distributed structure and does not require the complex manipulator dynamic model, thereby it is computationally very efficient. Each joint is independently controlled by a PID feedback part and a velocity-acceleration feedforward part. Simulation results for a two-link direct drive manipulator conform that the proposed decentralized scheme is feasible.

This paper deals with the issue of simple adaptive position control for a pump-controlled cylinder system. A fixed displacement pump is utilized instead of servo valve and its speed is controlled by AC motor. The whole control system is composed of a pair of interconnected subsystems, that is, a feedback control system and a feedforward control system. From experiments it is shown that position control using simple adaptive control can accomplish significant reduction in position tracking error comparing to a conventional PID control.

This paper presents a decentralized adaptive controller design for a Magnetically Levitated Fine Manipulator to follow the given trajectory as close as possible in spite of coupling effects between motion axes(degree of freedoms or subsystems). The present controller consists of two parts: the model reference controls based on known subsystems and the local adaptive controls. The former stabilizes the motion of the manipulator so as to follow that of the reference model. The latter reduces tracking errors due to coupling disturbances by adjusting the local gains to such levels that override interactions and assure the stability of the overall system. Through several experimental results, it has been shown that the decentralized adaptive control scheme has better tracking performances comparing to the PID controller case as well as good disturbance(coupling) rejection property.

This paper investigates the motion control of a hydraulic motor-load system using the Simple Adaptive Control (SAC) method. The plant transfer function has been modelled mathematically. The open-loop responses have been obtained experimentally in order to identify the design parameters of transfer function. The hydraulic motor-load system has been modelled using the 3D CAD and imbedded in the hydraulic circuit simulation program to verify the overall performance. The experimental results confirm that the SAC method gives a good tracking performance compared to the PID control.

In this paper, a model reference adaptive control (MRAC) scheme is applied for the precise and robust motion control of a pneumatic system with load variation. The reference model for MRAC is designed systematically using linear quadratic Gaussian control with loop transfer recovery (LQG/LTR). The sigmoid function of inverse velocity is used to compensate for the nonlinear friction force between the sliding parts. The experimental results show that MRAC effectively overcame the limit of the PID controller when there was unknown disturbance, including abrupt load variation and model uncertainty in the pneumatic control system.

Field robot represented by excavator can be applied for various kinds of working in manufacturing, construction, agriculture etc. because of the flexibility of its multi-joint mechanism and the high power of hydraulic actuators. In general, the dynamics of field robot have strong coupling, various kinds of non-linearity, and time-varying parameters according to working conditions. Therefore, it is very difficult to describe the system well, and design controller systematically based on its model. This paper established the mathematical model of field robot driven by electro-hydraulic servomechanism and constructed the adaptive control system robust to external load variations. The proposed control system for the field robot was evaluated by the computer simulation and the performance results of trajectory tracking were compared with that of PID control system.
