There are mainly two types of bang-bang controllers for nominal linear time-invariant (LTI) system. Optimal bang-bang controller is designed based on optimal control theory and suboptimal bang-bang controller is obtained by using Lyapunov stability condition. In this paper, the suboptimal bang-bang control method is extended to LTI system involving both control input saturation and structured real parameter uncertainties by using Lyapunov robust stability condition. Two robust optimal bang-bang controllers are derived by minimizing the time derivative of Lyapunov function subjected to the limit of control input. The one is developed based on the classical quadratic stability(QS), and the other is developed based on the affine quadratic stability(AQS). And characteristics of the two controllers are compared. Especially, bounds of parameter uncertainties which theoretically guarantee robust stability of the two controllers are compared quantitatively for 1DOF vibrating system. Moreover, the validity of robust optimal bang-bang controller based on the AQS is shown through numerical simulations for this system.

Multi-term fractional differential equations have been used to simulate fractional-order control system. It has been demonstrated the necessity of the such controllers for the more efficient control of fractional-order dynamical system. In this paper, the multi-term fractional ordinary differential equations are transferred into equivalent a system of equations. The existence and uniqueness of the new system are proved. A fractional order difference approximation is constructed by a decoupled technique and fractional-order numerical techniques. The consistence, convergence and stability of the numerical approximation are proved. Finally, some numerical results are presented to demonstrate that the numerical approximation is a computationally efficient method. The new method can be applied to solve the fractional-order control system.

A numerical model and a controller of Active Front wheel Steer (AFS) system are designed in this study. The AFS model consists of four sub models, and the AFS controller uses sliding mode control and PID control methods. To test this model and controller an Integrated Dynamics Control with Steering (IDCS) system is also designed. The IDCS system integrates an AFS system and an ARS (Active Rear wheel Steering) system. The AFS controller and IDCS controller are compared under several driving and road conditions. An 8 degree of freedom vehicle model is also employed to test the controllers. The results show that the model of AFS system shows good kinematic steering assistance function. Steering ratio varies depends on vehicle velocity between 12 and 24. Kinematic stabilization function also shows good performance because yaw rate of AFS vehicle tracks the reference yaw rate. IDCS shows improved responses compared to AFS because body side slip angle is also reduced. This result also proves that AFS system shows satisfactory result when it is integrated with another chassis system. On a split-m road, two controllers forced the vehicle to proceed straight ahead.

본 논문은 헬리콥터 비선형 제어기 설계를 위한 State-Dependent Riccati Equation (SDRE) 기법을 다루었다. SDRE 제어기법은 비선형 운동방정식에 대해 선형 시스템과 같은 구조를 갖는 방정식을 필요하기 때문에 State-Dependent Coefficient (SDC) factorization 기법을 개발하여 비선형 운동방정식으로부터 이러한 구조의 방정식을 유도하였다. SDRE제어기를 온라인상에서 설계하는데 필요한 대수 Riccati 방정식의 효율적인 수치해법을 연구하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 수치기법을 헬리콥터의 경로추종문제로 적용하였으며, 고 신뢰도의 헬리콥터 수학적 모델을 적용하여 실시간으로 SDRE 제어기를 설계할 수 있는 방안을 제안하였다.

This work proposes and investigates re-centering negative stiffness dampers (NSDs) for vibration suppression in high-speed trains. The merit of the negative stiffness feature is demonstrated by active controllers on a high-speed train. This merit inspires the replacement of active controllers with re-centering NSDs, which are more reliable and robust than active controllers. The proposed damper design consists of a passive magnetic negative stiffness spring and a semi-active positioning shaft for re-centering function. The former produces negative stiffness control forces, and the latter prevents the amplification of quasi-static spring deflection. Numerical investigations verify that the proposed re-centering NSD can improve ride comfort significantly without amplifying spring deflection.

The purpose of this paper is to study a high-performance control scheme for neutral-point-clamping three-level (NPC-3L) inverter fed dual three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives by considering some asymmetric factors such as the non-identical parameters in phase windings. To implement this, the system model is analyzed for dual three-phase PMSM drives with asymmetric factors based on the vector space decomposition (VSD) principle. Based on the equivalent circuits, PI controllers with feedforward compensation are used in the d-q subspace for regulating torque, where the cut-off frequency of the PI controllers are set at the twice the fundamental frequency for compensating both the additional DC component and the second order component caused by asymmetry. Meanwhile, proportional resonant (PR) controllers are proposed in the x-y subspace for suppressing the possible unbalanced currents in the phase windings. A dual three-phase space vector modulation (DT-SVM) is designed for the drive, and the balancing factor is designed based on the numerical fitting surface for balancing the DC link capacitor voltages. Experimental results are given to demonstrate the validity of the theoretical analysis and the proposed control scheme.

We present a robust and reliable H$\infty$ state-feedback controller design for linear uncertain systems, which have norm-bounded time-varying uncertainty in the state matrix, and their prespecified sets of actuators are susceptible to failure. These controllers should guarantee robust stability of the systems and H$\infty$ norm bound against parameter uncertainty and/or actuator failures. Based on the linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, two state-feedback controller design methods are constructed by formulating to a set of LMIs corresponding to all failure cases or a single LMI that covers all failure cases, with an additional costraint. Effectiveness and geometrical property of these controllers are validated via several numerical examples. Furthermore, the proposed LMI frameworks can be applied to multiobjective problems with additional constraints.

In human-mechanical cooperative systems, a significant issue is to improve the control performance and the maneuvering feeling of human operation. However, since it is not easy to evaluate the feeling of operators numerically, control engineers design controllers only through experience. Thus, in this paper, a new evaluation method for control performance of human-mechanical cooperative system is proposed based on the reserge waveform. Various distortions of waveform represent deteriorations of control performance and maneuvering feeling. In some cases, since there is a tradeoff between the control performance and the maneuvering feeling, it is difficult to compensate for both of them by usual feedback controllers. To overcome this situation, the two degrees of freedom control system is applied to human-mechanical cooperative system. Some numerical simulation results for an electric power steering system are shown to confirm the effectiveness of proposed control design method.

Recently, a direct data-driven synthesis of a proportional integral derivative(PID) controller for a linear time-invariant(LTI) plant was presented in [1]. The authors showed that a complete set of PID controllers achieving robust performance and stability can be calculated directly from frequency response(FR) data without an identified transfer function model. However, it is not convenient to use this method because it requires complicated numerical algorithms to find specific frequencies which are solutions of an identical equation. The method also requires determination of the boundary of the controller's parameters from a finite set of FR data. In this paper, we present the development of a user-friendly Matlab toolbox based on the method in [1]. This toolbox allows us to obtain a complete three-dimensional(3-D) graphical solution of PID controllers that meet multiple design objectives. Several examples are given to demonstrate the use of the toolbox.

Peak response is a more suitable index than mean response in the light of structural safety. In this study, a controller optimization method is proposed to restrict peak responses of building structures subject to earthquake excitations, which are modeled as partially stationary stochastic process. The constraints are given with specified failure probabilities of peak responses. LQR is chosen to assure stability in numerical process of optimization. Optimization problem is formulated with weightings on controlled outputs as design variables and gradients of objective and constraint functions are derived. Full state feedback controllers designed by the proposed method satisfy various design objectives and output feedback controllers using LQG also yield similar results without significant performance deterioration.
