The adaptive method is utilised to estimate the upper bound of these mismatched disturbances and uncertainties. Meanwhile, the fuzzy logic is employed to enhance the tracking performance. In short, the fuzzy controller, adaptive, finite-time stability concepts and sliding mode control (SMC) scheme have been incorporated to propose fuzzy adaptive finite-time SMC (FAFSMC) scheme to utilise their benefits and to compensate the shortages of applying them individually. The finite-time stability analysis is investigated by utilising the Lyapunov stability theory. The simulation results are carried out for the proposed fuzzy scheme and five other existing non-fuzzy schemes including simple, classical, cubic, hexagonal, and switching to reveal the effectiveness of the proposed scheme compared to the other five schemes.

Firstly, a state transformation method is designed to eliminate the reaching phase of terminal sliding mode, which can avoid the singularity problem fundamentally. In addition, mismatched uncertainty can be transferred to the same channel with control input after state transformation. Secondly, a novel controller is designed to stabilise the new form of the system in finite-time, while the mismatched uncertainty can be compensated effectively. Numerical simulations further validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

The actuator faults are considered as partial loss of effectiveness fault and bias fault. For design controller, the control gains and disturbances only need to have unknown upper bounds. Also a signed bipartite directed graph is used for describing the communication topology of the multi-agent system. An adaptive sliding mode controller is developed for bipartite consensus tracking of the multi-agent system. The proposed adaptive sliding mode controller ensures the uniformly ultimately bounded cooperative tracking of the multi-agent system. Finally, the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed control method is verified via simulation results.

The sliding mode control (SMC) method is a well-developed, promising control procedure appropriate for nonlinear, time-dependent, uncertain systems. Due to its dynamic nature and robustness towards uncertainties, SMC is a most suggested technique for implementing in induction motor drives. This paper focuses on implementing various continuous-time, SMC strategies characterised by the reaching law approach in an induction motor drive. The paper also proposes a comparative analysis of various continuous-time reaching-laws on the performance of the motor towards parameter and load variations and the chattering issues.

    查看更多>>摘要:This manuscript presents a larger signal model by combining the universal active filter (UAF) and the solar system with a vector switching operation (VSO) in a novel gamma theta frame. The detailed modelling of the S-UAF using VSO and modified sliding mode control (MSMC) is proposed for achieving better power quality (PQ) operation. MSMC-based novel gamma theta frame is used to estimate the accurate reference signals for SHAF during dynamic state conditions such as sag/swell, change in irradiance, fault and sensitive load condition. SEAF control is based upon the conventional dq control strategies and it adjusts the load voltage during dynamic conditions. SHAF is used to balance the grid side current and reduces the harmonic distortion by injecting the appropriate current in quadrature with the load current and facilitates fast transient response during sudden load change by providing better tracking capability and reduction in the switching losses. To validate the proposed controller and S-UAF approach with different test conditions, it is tested in MATLAB/Simulink environment and the related results are discussed.

A state transformation matrix is designed properly to transfer a class of MIMO linear systems into a new form without changing its controllability and observability, the design method and application conditions are given. Based on it, the traditional non-singular method of second-order nonlinear systems can be used in the new form of MIMO linear systems by adjusting the dimension of coefficients appropriately. Then an example is given to validate the effectiveness of the proposed form. Stability analysis and numerical simulations show that the proposed method can guarantee system states to converge to equilibrium point with strong robustness in finite time, and the singularity problem can also be avoided appropriately.

The controller uses the novel model-based switching functions approach, which leads to important simplifications of the pitch, roll and yaw torques control inputs fed to the quadrotor. The model-based switching functions approach forces as well a complete chattering decoupling of these three torque inputs and enhances the robustness of the closed-loop system. The proposed approach is combined with the fixed-time sliding mode approach, and is experimentally implemented and successfully validated on a quadrotor system.

According to different atmospheric conditions and load changes, a robust control based on sliding mode control (SMC) is designed to satisfy the total power demand in different power system operation modes. Thus, the proposed controller is modified by introducing the integral action in the switching surface, in order to improve transient response with minimum steady state error. Numerical simulations are presented and discussed to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method, using a nonlinear model of the plant. Finally, the simulation results show that the proposed integral sliding mode control (ISMC) strategy ensures better response speed and smaller steady-state error compared to standard SMC.

    Residual-based fault detection isolation and recovery of a greenhouse

    查看更多>>摘要:This paper is concerned with fault detection, isolation and recovery (FDIR) of the greenhouse whose temperature is regulated by the model predictive controller (MPC). The residual generation approach is adopted for fault detection and isolation. The new considerations in the proposed FDIR approach are the residual generation for actuator faults, regulation failure detection as the indication of inappropriate regulation by the controller, below threshold actuator fault detection strategy, and recovery operation updating model used by MPC once the FDIR isolates the actuator fault. The proposed control strategy FDIR with MPC was compared with fixed model information MPC for simulated scenarios of the actuator fault. It has been shown that FDIR successfully detects, isolates and updates model information with low computation burden for non-delayed control evaluation.

The control scheme is made of an adaptive instantaneous neural emulator, a neural controller based on fully connected real-time recurrent learning (RTRL) networks and an online parameter updating law. A multi-objective criterion that takes into account the minimisation of the control energy is considered. The contribution of this paper is to develop a new controller parameter optimisation based on the Lyapunov stability analysis while ensuring control issues with environmental and economical objectives. Performance of the proposed approach in terms of regulation, tracking and minimisation of the control energy is evaluated by numerical simulations of a disturbed nonlinear multi-variable system. The obtained control scheme is then applied in real time to a disturbed MIMO thermal process.
