In a winding process, important control specifications include regulation of web tension and velocity. In this research, an adaptive controller has been developed for controlling web tension and velocity in winding processes. For the controller design, the linear quadratic regulator theory has been adopted and a gain-scheduling scheme has been incorporated. A prototype winding system has been constructed, and the controller has been implemented in a real-time PC-based environment. The performance of the closed loop system has been evaluated via simulation and experiments, and it was observed that both the web tension and velocity could be regulated within a small tolerance.

A discrete sliding mode control (SMC) method based on hybrid model of neural network and nominal model is proposed to reduce the vibration of flexible structures, which is a robust active controller developed by using a sliding manifold approach. Since the thick boundary layer will reduce the virtue of SMC, the multilayer feed-forward neural network is adopted to model the uncertainty part. The neural network is trained by Levenberg-Marquardt backpropagation. The design objective of the sliding mode surface is based on the quadratic optimal cost function. In course of running, the input signal of SMC come from the hybrid model of the nominal model and the neural network. The simulation shows that the proposed control scheme is very effective for large uncertainty systems.

Adaptive mesh refinement scheme is incorporated with the boundary element analysis in order to get accurate solution with relatively fewer unnowns for magnetostatic field analysis. A new andsimple posteriori local error estimate is also presented. The local error is defined as an integraktion over the element of the difference between solutions from quadratic interpolation functions and linear interpolation functions and is used as the criterion for mesh refinement. Case study with a singular point reveals that adaptive meshes are more efficient in accuracy of solutions than uniform meshs generated by dividing al the elements evenly. The adaptive meshes give much better rate of convergence in global errors than the uniform meshes.

The identification of nonlinear system using Extended GMDH(EGMDH) is studied in this paper. The proposed EGMDH algorithm is based on GMDH(Group Method of Data handling) method and its structure is similar to Neural Networks. The each node of EGMDH structure utilizes several types of high-order polynomial such as linear, quadratic and cubic, and is connected as various kinds of multi-variable inputs. As the operating condition changes, the parameters of EGMDH will also change, so the proposed scheme by means of the EGMDH method is capable of adapting rapidly to the changing environment. The simulation result shows that the simple nonlinear process can be modeled reasonably well by the proposed method which are simple but efficient.

This paper presents a scheme to solve the congestion problem using phase-shifting transformer(PST) in power systems. Available transfer capability(ATC) is an important indicator of the usable amount of transmission capacity accessible by several parties for commercial trading in power transaction activities. This paper deals with an application of optimization technique for ATC calculation. Sequential quadratic programming(SQP) is used to maximize power flow of tie line subject to security constraints such as voltage magnitude and real power flow. The proposed method is applied to 10 machines 39 buses model systems to show its effectiveness.

In order to utilize hydrodynamic drag force on articulated robots moving in an underwater environment, an optimum motion planning procedure is proposed. The drag force acting on cylindrical underwater arms is modeled and a directional drag measure is defined as a quantitative measure of reaction force in a specific direction in a workspace. A repetitive trajectory planning method is formulated from the general point-to-point trajectory planning method. In order to globally optimize the parameters of repetitive trajectories under inequality constraints, a 2-level optimization scheme is proposed, which adopts the genetic algorithm (GA) as the 1st level optimization and sequential quadratic programming (SQP) as the 2nd level optimization. To verify the validity of the proposed method, optimization examples of periodic motion planning with the simple two-link planner robot are also presented in this paper.

In this study, an adaptive control scheme with a pre-specified $H_{\infty}$ property is proposed for the tracking control of linear induction motor (LIM) drive system. Under the influence of uncertainties and external disturbances, by using nonlinear decoupling and parameter tuner, the robust performance control problem is formulated as a nonlinear $H_{\infty}$ problem and solved by a quadratic storage function. This new design method is able to track the step and several periodic commands with improved performance in face of parameter perturbations and external disturbances. Simulation and experimental results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive $H_{\infty}$ controller.

In discrete-time controlled system, sampling time is one of the critical parameters for control performance. It is useful to employ different sampling rates into the system considering the feasibility of measuring system or actuating system. The systems with the different sampling rates in their input and output channels are named multirate system. Even though the original continuous-time system is time-invariant, it is realized as time-varying state equation depending on multirate sampling mechanism. By means of the augmentation of the inputs and the outputs over one Period, the time-varying system equation can be constructed into the time-invariant equation. In this paper, an alternative time-invariant model is proposed, the design method and the stability of the LQG (Linear Quadratic Gaussian) control scheme for the realization are presented. The realization is flexible to construct to the sampling rate variations, the closed-loop system is shown to be asymptotically stable even in the inter-sampling intervals and it has smaller computation in on-line control loop than the previous time-invariant realizations.

Rigid plate elastically supported at the edges is modeled and the performance of the optimal vibration control under sinusoidal excitation is tested. The controller based on the linear quadratic regulator with output feedback is designed to control the multi-degree of freedom vibration. Relative weighting parameters are considered as design constraints to determine the limitation of maximum control force and state parameters. Control force calculated by proportional output feedback of the displacement and velocity is used to suppress the vibration induced by the sinusoidal external force. The active vibration control of vibrating plate by the LQR controller is examined through the numerical simulations that show the effectiveness of optimal control scheme on the three degrees of freedom structure.

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.
