Transient stability analysis is concerned with a power system's response to unwanted disturbance. Recently, direct method which utilize the stable region of stable equilibrium point is used to analyze transient stability This paper focuses on the controlling UEP method using the fractal behaviours. In the controlling UEP method, many algorithms are used to find controlling UEP However, the existence of fractal region gives difficulty in finding the controlling UEP. So, this paper observes the fractal feature arid introduce the fractal index to explain how much the fractal region occupies in the entire space. Using an improved algorithm from the view point of fractal index, we are going to find the controlling UEP.

in order to perform a elaborate task like as assembly, manufacturing and so forth of components, tracking control on the trajectory of power coming in contact with a target as well as tracking control on the movement course trajectory of end-effector is indispensable. In this paper, to bring under robust and accurate control of auto-equipment systems which disturbance, parameter alteration of system, uncertainty and so forth exist, neural network controller called dynamic neural processor(DNP) is designed. Also, the learning architecture to compute inverse kinematic coordinates transformations in the manipulator of auto-equipment system is developed and the example that DNP can be used is explained. The architecture and learning algorithm of the proposed dynamic neural network, the DNP, are described and computer simulation are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed learning method using the DNP.

To improve the ride comfort and handling characteristics of a vehicle, an active suspension which is controlled by external actuators can be used. An active suspension can control the vertical acceleration of a vehicle and the tire deflection to achieve the desired suspension goal. For this purpose, Model Predictive Control (MPC) scheme is applied with the assumption that the preview information of the oncoming road disturbance is available. The predictive control approach uses the output prediction to forecast the output over a time horizon and determines the future control over the horizon by minimizing the performance index. The developed method is applied to a half car model of four degrees-of-freedom and numerical simulations show that the MPC controller improves noticeably the ride qualities and handling performance of a vehicle.

We have investigated the usefulness of an active stabilizing system to reduce ship rolling under disturbances, using varying reaction of the flaps. In the proposed anti-rolling system for a ship, the flaps, as the actuator, are installed on the stern, in order to reject the rolling motion induced by disturbances, such as waves. The action induced by the flaps, which is dependent upon the power of the disturbances, can keep the ship in balance. In this study, we define the system parameters under the given system structure, using spectral analysis and experimental studies. Based on this information, we design the controller to evaluate the usefulness of the proposed system.

Nowadays, electro hydrostatic actuator (EHA) has shown great advantages over the conventional hydraulic actuators with valve control system. This paper presents a position control for an EHA using a modified back stepping controller. The controller is designed by combining a backstepping technique and adaptation laws via special Lyapunov functions. The control signal consists of an adaptive control signal to compensate for the nonlinearities and a simple robust structure to deal with a bounded disturbance. Experiments are carried out to investigate the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

This paper proposes the algorithm for the initial pole-position estimation of a surface PM-LSM, which is carried out under the pseudo-position control with-out a pole sensor and is insensitive to the motor parameters. This algorithm is based on the principle that the initial pole-position is calculated by the reverse trigonometric-function using the two reference currents, which are informed from the speed controller. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is confirmed by the arithmetical analysis and the experiment. IPP is well estimated within a satisfied moving-distance and a shorter estimation taken-time even if large disturbance such as cogging and friction are existed.

In this paper, a novel motor control method is proposed to improve the performance of sensorless drive of BLDC motors. The unknown input (back-EMF) is modelled as the additional state of system in this paper. Taking into account the disturbance adopted by the back-EMF, the observer can be obtained by the augmented system equation. An algorithm to detect the back-EMF of the BLDC motor using the state observer is constructed. As a result, the novel sensorless drive of BLDC motors that can strictly estimate rotor position and speed is proposed.

A typical method to control the single-phase power converter system is to utilize the zero-crossing PLL. However, this method is vulnerable to the voltage disturbance and affects the performance of controller. This paper proposes a new single-phase PLL system that is composed of the adaptive linear combiner and the PI control. The operational principle was analyzed through theoretical approach and the performance was verified through simulations with MATLAB. The proposed PLL system shows rapidness and robustness in control under the voltage disturbances such as the sag, harmonics, and phase jump.

This paper describes operational characteristics of wind turbine induction generators interconnected with distribution networks using PSCAD/EMTDC. Due to the simple and durable structure, induction generators are the most common type used in wind Power generation. Generally, induction generators are classified into two groups according to the shape of rotor, one is squirrel-cage type and the other is wound-rotor type. In this study, we simulate the start-up and the output variation of generators interconnected with distribution networks and compare the operational characteristics of squirrel -cage type and wound-rotor type induction generators located in the unfaulted distribution lines about the disturbance occurred on the associated distribution feeders emanated from the substation to which wind turbine generator is connected. In order to obtain the realistic results, we use the radial distribution network of IEEE 13-bus model.

In this paper, a combined field orientation and adaptive backstepping approach using a sliding mode adaptive flux observer, is proposed for the control of induction motor In order to achieve the speed regulation with the consideration of improving power efficiency, rotor angular speed and flux amplitude tracking objectives are formulated. Rotor flux and inverse time constant are estimated by the sliding mode adaptive flux observer based on a fixed stator frame model and mechanical lumped uncertainty such as inertia moment, load torque disturbance, friction compensated by the adaptive backstepping based on a field-oriented model. Simulation results are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
