If an internal combustion engine is operated by consolidated control, the minimum fuel consumption is achieved and the demanded objectives are satisfied. For this, it is necessary that the engine is operated on the ideal operating line which satisfies minimum fuel consumption. In this context of view, there are many tries to achieve given object. However, the parameters in the internal combustion engines are variable and depend on the operating points. Therefore, it is necessary to cope with the uncertainties such that the optimal operating may be possible. From this point of view, this paper gives a controller design method and a robust stability condition for engine torque control which satisfies the given control performance and robust stability in the presence of physical parameter perturbation. Exactly, in this paper, we consider the robust stability problem of this 2DOF servosystem with nonlinear type uncertainty in the engine system, and a robust stability condition for the servosystem is shown. This result guarantees that if the plant uncertainty is in the permissible set defined by the given condition, then a gain tuning can be carried out to suppress the influence of the plant uncertainties.

The most important thing in the container terminal is to handle the cargo effectively in a limited time. To achieve this objective, many strategies have been introduced and applied. If we consider the automated container terminal, it is necessary that the cargo handling equipment is equipped with more intelligent control systems. From the middle of the 1990s, an automated rail-mounted gantry crane (RMGC) and rubber-tired gantry crane (RTG) have been developed and widely used to handle containers in the yards. Recently, in these cranes, equipment like CCD cameras and sensors have been mounted to cope with the automated terminal environment. In this paper, we try to support the development of more intelligent automated cranes that make the cargo handling be performed effectively in the yards. For this plant, we ought to consider modeling, tracking control, anti-sway system design, skew motion suppressionand complicated motion control and suppressing problems. In this paper, the system modeling and a tracking control approach are discussed, based on a two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF) servo-system design. From the simulation results, the good control performance of the designed control system is evaluated.

Conventionally, because it is difficult to control a ship in shallow water and because attempting to do so creates unwanted environmental effects, maneuvering ships in the harbor area for berthing is usually done with the assistance of tugboats. In this paper, we propose a new method for berthing ships automatically by using bow and stern thrusters. Specifically, a steering motion model of a ship is considered, and parameters in the equation are evaluated by the system identification technique. An optimal controller based on observations was designed from the linearization of the non-linear ship motion in the horizontal plane. It is used to reduce the uncertainty about the ship's dynamics and reduce measurement requirements. The performance of the controller was also analyzed for its robustness relative to avoiding disturbing the environment due to winds, currents, and wave-drift forces. Experiments were conducted to estimate the potential for identifying result and the design of the controller. Specifically, in this paper, the system modeling and tracking control approach are discussed based on a two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF) servo-system design.

컨테이너의 신속한 이송 및 처리는 작업시간 단축에 의한 비용절감을 의미하므로 항만에서는 가능한 작업효율을 향상시키기 위해 다양한 노력이 추진되고 있다. 1990년대 중반부터 RMGC 및 RTGC 등의 크레인이 개발되어 컨테이너 이송 및 적재를 위한 필수장비로 널리 이용되고 있다. 특히 RTGC는 타이어 구동방식이므로 주행환경에 크게 제약을 받지 않는 장점도 있으나, 타이어 슬립, 타이어에 의한 샤시의 기울어짐 등 설정된 경로를 고정도로 주행해야 하는 목적달성에 장애가 되는 요인도 많아 레일 위를 주행하는 RMGC에 비해 자동화가 용이하지 않다. 이것은 무인 RTGC 시스템 구축을 어렵게 하는 가장 큰 요인이 되어 이와 관련한 기술개발 또한 미비한 수준에 이르고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서 RTGC의 무인자동화에 있어서 가장 기초단계라고 볼 수 있는 수학적 모델링을 기반으로 한 고정도 주행제어기를 설계하고자 한다. 먼저 제어대상인 RTGC의 주행에 따른 운동특성을 분석하여 모델링을 수행한다. 기본적인 주행성능을 달성하기 위한 주행제어기를 설계하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 설계된 제어기의 유용성을 확인하도록 한다.
