This paper presents an application of LMI-based techniques to the mixed $H_2/ H_\infty$ control of an inverted pendulum. The linear model of the inverted pendulum represented by an LFR(Linear Fractional Representation) model of uncertainties is derived. Considered uncertainties are three nonlinear components and a parameter uncertainty Augmenting the LFR model by adding weighting functions, we get a generalized plant, for which we design a mixed $H_2/ H_\infty$ controller using the LMI technique. To evaluate control performances and robust stability of the mixed $H_2/ H_\infty$ controller designed, we compare it with the $ H_\infty$controller through the simulation and experiment. The mixed $H_2/ H_\infty$ controller shows the better control performances and robust stability than the $H_\infty$controller in the sense of pendulum angle.

To stabilize a satellite, a spin stabilization method is used for attitude control. The spin stabilization uses the centrifugal force of a pendulum damper which is tilted long boom, to stabilize the unstable satellite. In this paper, an inverted pendulum system is implemented which is similar to the spin stabilization method. Study on the velocity of the rotation axis and the inverted pendulum's angle stability is shown. We designed a controller using a 32bit TMS320C31 DSP for the CPU and also performances by PLD control and Sliding Mode Control is compared.

This paper presents the development and control of a two wheeled car-like mobile robot using balancing mechanism whose heading control is done by turning the handle. The mobile inverted pendulum is a combined system of a mobile robot and an inverted pendulum system. A sensor fusion technique of low cost sensors such as a gyro sensor and a tilt sensor to measure the balancing angle of the inverted pendulum robot system accurately is implemented. Experimental studies of the trajectory following control task has been conducted by command of steering wheel while balancing.

In experiment, a real inverted pendulum system has state constraints and limited amplitude of input. These problems make it difficult to design a swing-up controller. To overcome these problems, we design a sliding mode controller considering physical behaviour of the inverted pendulum system. This sliding mode controller uses a switching control action to converge along a specified path derived from energy equation from a state around the path to desired states(standing position). And optimal control method is used to guarantee stability at unstable equilibrium position. The designed controller can be applied to all inverted pendulum systems regardless of the values of their parameters. Compared with previous existing controllers, it is simple and easy to tune. Experimental results are given to show the effectiveness of this controller.

A dynamic density functional theory is presented for the observation of the phase revolutions of a solution-casting film of di- and tri-block copolymers under solvent evaporation conditions. With the evaporation of the solvent, the inverted phases, the minor part of the component becomes the continuous phase at the higher solvent evaporation rate, as observed in this experiment. Further simulation revealed that these inverted phases are converted into the normal phase and the major part of the component becomes the continuous phase, implying that the inverted phases observed in this experiment are unstable.

The inverted pendulum is a typical example of unstable systems and has been used for verification of designed control systems. It is also very popular in control education in laboratories, serving as a good example to show the utility of the state space approach to the controller design. This paper shows two kinds of experiment using inverted pendulum: one is the stabilization of a single spherical inverted pendulum by a plane manipulator using visual feedback, and the other is the state transfer control of a double pendulum. In the former experiment, the feedback stabilization using a CCD camera has major importance as an example of controller implementation with non-contact measurement. The latter involves the standard stabilizing regulation method and nonlinear control techniques. The details of the experimental systems, the control algorithms and the experimental results will be given.

This paper deals with the method to estimate the friction in a system. We study a nonlinear friction model to estimate the friction in an inverted pendulum and approximate the friction model using fuzzy basis functions expansion. To demonstrate the friction observer using FBFs, we derive a update rule based on the error term that is formed by the output from a real system and observer output with a friction estimate. And two compensation algorithms to improve the response of an inverted pendulum are proposed. The first method that a observer parameter is updated in on-line and the friction is compensated at the same time. The second method is to compensate the friction with observer parameter estimated priori. The two methods is compared through the experimental results.

We developed the Hyper-thermal Neutral Beam (HNB) sputtering process as a plasma damage free process for ITO top anode deposition on inverted Top emission OLED (ITOLED). For examining the effect of the HNB sputtering system, Inverted Bottom emission OLEDs (IBOLED) with ITO top anode electrode were fabricated; the characteristics of IBOLED using HNB sputtering process shows significant suppression of plasma induced damage.

In this paper, we controlled a Rotary Inverted Pendulum System using Neuro-Fuzzy Controller(NFC). The inverted pendulum system is widely used as a typical example of an unstable nonlinear control system which is difficult to control. Fuzzy theory have been because membership functions and rules of a fuzzy controller are often given by experts or a fuzzy logic control system. This controller is a feedforward multilayered network which integrates the basic elements and functions of a tradtional fuzzy logic controller into a connectionist structure which has distributed learning abilities. Such NFC can be constructed from training examples by learning rule, and the structure can be trained to develop fuzzy logic rules and find optimal input/output membership functions. Using this controller, we presented the results that controlled a Rotary Inverted Pendulum System and the associated algorithms.

In this paper, the edge intensification and detection algorithm which is one of image processing operations is considered. Edge detection algorithm is the most useful and important method for image processing or image analysis. The vision system based on these processing and concerned in specific project is proposed and is applied to the inverted pendulum in order to automatically acquire the angles between the bar and the perpendicular reference line. In this paper, the angles that are obtained from some images of computer vision system can offer useful informations for control of real inverted pendulum system. Next, the inverted pendulum will be controlled by the proposed method.
