SummaryIn this paper we propose some simple rules for PID tuning of robot manipulators. The procedure suggested requires the knowledge of the structure of the inertia matrix and the gravitational torque vector of the robot dynamics, but only upper bounds on the dynamics parameters are needed. This tuning procedure is extracted from the stability analysis by using a suitable Lyapunov function together with the LaSalle invariance principle. We show that with this guideline, the overall closed-loop system is asymptotically stable. This procedure is illustrated for a two degrees-of-freedom robot

Abstract The paper presents design and experimental validation of a stable self-tuning PID controller for three degrees of freedom (3-DOF) helicopter. At first, it is proposed a self-tuned proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller for a class of uncertain second order multiinput multi-output nonlinear dynamic systems to which the 3-DOF helicopter dynamic model belongs. Within this scheme, the PID controller is employed to approximate unknown ideal controller that can achieve control objectives. PID controller gains are the adjustable parameters and they are updated online with a stable adaptation mechanism designed to minimize the error between the unknown ideal controller and the used by PID controller. The stability analysis of the closed-loop system is performed using Lyapunov approach. It is proven that all signals in the closed-loop system are uniformly ultimately bounded. The proposed approach can be regarded as a simple and effective model-free control since the mathematical model of the system is assumed unknown. Experimental results are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

The stability of the system is the main objective for Control System Design criteria. PID control with closed loop system is the one of control which can improve the stability of the system from disturbance effect. In this study, DC Motor Speed Control is designed with PID LabVIEW 2010 Software and Proximity Sensor as a closed loop feedback. The system allows the operator to control speed of DC Motor from LabVIEW front panel which automatically stabilized when load �which usually slow down the speed of DC Motor, applied. PID LabVIEW 2010 generates voltage output 0-5Vdc and drives DC Motor through analog output channel from NIDAQ 600, which received by Non-Inverting Amplifier and amplified to 0-12Vdc output. PID Control with Closed Loop system may dampen the speed response second order of DC Motor to have value of overshoot number � 0 with steady state error of �2%. The system feedback can stabilize this condition from outside interference. The result of this speed control system has success criteria of overshoot (Mp) = 0 and Error Steady State (Ess) = 0.82%.

This paper studies the attitude-tracking control problem of spacecraft considering on-orbit refuelling. A time-varying inertia model is developed for spacecraft on-orbit refuelling, which actually includes two processes: fuel in the transfer pipe and fuel in the tank. Based upon the inertia model, an adaptive attitude-tracking controller is derived to guarantee the stability of the resulted closed-loop system, as well as asymptotic convergence of the attitude-tracking errors, despite performing refuelling operations. Finally, numerical simulations illustrate the effectiveness and performance of the proposed control scheme.

The problem of robust and optimal output feedback design for interval state-space systems is addressed in this paper. Indeed, an algorithm based on set inversion via interval analysis (SIVIA) combined with interval eigenvalues computation and eigenvalues clustering techniques is proposed to seek for a set of robust gains. This recursive SIVIA-based algorithm allows to approximate with subpaving the set solutions [K] that satisfy the inclusion of the eigenvalues of the closed-loop system in a desired region in the complex plane. Moreover, the LQ tracker design is employed to find from the set solutions [K] the optimal solution that minimizes the inputs/outputs energy and ensures the best behaviors of the closed-loop system. Finally, the effectiveness of the algorithm is illustrated by a real experimentation on a piezoelectric tube actuator.

Limit protection, which frequently exists as an auxiliary part in control systems, is not the primary motive of control but is a necessary guarantee of safety. As in the case of aircraft engine control, the main objective is to provide the desired thrust based on the position of the throttle; nevertheless, limit protection is indispensable to keep the engine operating within limits. There are plenty of candidates that can be applied to design the regulators for limit protection. PID control with gain-scheduling technique has been used for decades in the aerospace industry. This classic approach suggests linearizing the original nonlinear model at different power-level points, developing PID controllers correspondingly, and then scheduling the linear time-invariant (LTI) controllers according to system states. Sliding mode control (SMC) is well-known with mature theories and numerous successful applications. With the one-sided convergence property, SMC is especially suitable for limit protection tasks. In the case of aircraft engine control, SMC regulators have been developed to supplant traditional linear regulators, where SMC can strictly keep relevant outputs within their limits and improve the control performance. In aircraft engine control field, we all know that the plant is a nonlinear system. However, the present design of the sliding controller is carried out with linear models, which severely restricts the valid scope of the controller. Even if the gain scheduling technique is adopted, the stability of the whole systems cannot be theoretically proved. Research of linear parameter varying (LPV) system throws light on a class of nonlinear control problems. In present works, we propose a controller design method based on the LPV model to solve the engines control problem and achieve considerable effectiveness. In this paper, we discuss the design of a sliding controller for limit protection task of aircraft engines, the plant of which is described as an LPV system instead of LTI models. We define the sliding surface as tracking errors and, with the aid of vertex property, present the stability analysis of the closed-loop system on the sliding surface. An SMC law is designed to guarantee that the closed-loop system is globally attracted to the sliding surface. Hot day (ISA+30° C) takeoff simulations based on a reliable turbofan model are presented, which test the proposed method for temperature protection and verify its stability and effectiveness.

Parallel robots are nowadays used in many high-precision tasks. The dynamics of parallel robots is naturally more complex than the dynamics of serial robots, due to their kinematic structure composed by closed chains. In addition, their current high-precision applications demand the innovation of more effective and robust motion controllers. This has motivated researchers to propose novel and more robust controllers that can perform the motion control tasks of these manipulators. In this article, a two-loop proportional–proportional integral controller for trajectory tracking control of parallel robots is proposed. In the proposed scheme, the gains of the proportional integral control loop are constant, while the gains of the proportional control loop are online tuned by a novel self-organizing fuzzy algorithm. This algorithm generates a performance index of the overall controller based on the past and the current tracking error. Such a performance index is then used to modify some parameters of fuzzy membership functions, which are part of a fuzzy inference engine. This fuzzy engine receives, in turn, the tracking error as input and produces an increment (positive or negative) to the current gain. The stability analysis of the closed-loop system of the proposed controller applied to the model of a parallel manipulator is carried on, which results in the uniform ultimate boundedness of the solutions of the closed-loop system. Moreover, the stability analysis developed for proportional–proportional integral variable gains schemes is valid not only when using a self-organizing fuzzy algorithm for gain-tuning but also with other gain-tuning algorithms, only providing that the produced gains meet the criterion for boundedness of the solutions. Furthermore, the superior performance of the proposed controller is validated by numerical simulations of its application to the model of a planar three-degree-of-freedom parallel robot. The results of numerical simulations of a proportional integral derivative controller and a fuzzy-tuned proportional derivative controller applied to the model of the robot are also obtained for comparison purposes.

In this paper, group formation control with collision avoidance is investigated for heterogeneous multiquadrotor vehicles. Specifically, the distance-based formation and tracking control problem are addressed in the framework of leader-follower architecture. In this scheme, the leader is assigned the task of intercepting a target whose velocity is unknown, while the follower quadrotors are arranged to set up a predefined rigid formation pattern, ensuring simultaneously interagent collision avoidance and relative localization. The adopted strategy for the control design consists in decoupling the quadrotor dynamics in a cascaded structure to handle its underactuated property. Furthermore, by imposing constraints on the orientation angles, the follower will never be overturned. Rigorous stability analysis is presented to prove the stability of the entire closed-loop system. Numerical simulation results are presented to validate the proposed control strategy.

This paper deals with the design and evaluation of robust excitation controller for a single-machine infinite-bus power system. The design of the regulator guarantees the stability of the closed loop system and ensures the output voltage is maintained within an acceptable threshold. In addition, it damps out local mode oscillations for small signal disturbances. The designed robust controller is also analyzed under change in step input and disturbance, which limits the heavy oscillations on the speed ω and voltage. Glover-McFarlane loop shaping algorithm is applied in designing the robust excitation controller. Two different techniques such as Optimal control and mixed sensitivity approach is used in this paper. The performance of the AVR was analyzed and compared with IEEE type2 Exciter.

This paper deals with the circular formation control problem of multiagent systems for achieving any preset phase distribution. The control problem is decomposed into two parts: the first is to drive all the agents to a circle which either needs a target or not and the other is to arrange them in positions distributed on the circle according to the preset relative phases. The first part is solved by designing a circular motion control law to push the agents to approach a rotating transformed trajectory, and the other is settled using a phase-distributed protocol to decide the agents’ positioning on the circle, where the ring topology is adopted such that each agent can only sense the relative positions of its neighboring two agents that are immediately in front of or behind it. The stability of the closed-loop system is analyzed, and the performance of the proposed controller is verified through simulations.
