A novel drive system the Dual Motors Coupling Propulsion (DMCP) for battery electric buses was proposed, and its structure and working principle were introduced. For the power and comfort performance of the vehicle, the control method of the motors and the coordinated control strategy of the DMCP were developed. The co-simulation platform of AMESim and Simulink was established, based on which the dynamic model of the vehicle equipped the DMCP was built. The simulation results show that the DMCP runs smoothly in the Chinese typical city bus driving schedule. This indicates that the control strategy can manipulate the DMCP to drive the bus powerfully and smoothly. This has laid the foundation of the further research of the DMCP.

This paper presented a new method based on the Fuzzy self - adaptive PID for BLDCM. This method overcomes some defects of the traditional PID control. Such as lower control precision and worse anti - jamming performance. It dynamic model of BLDCM was built, and then design method for TS fuzzy PID model is given, At last, it compared simulation results of PID control method with TS Fuzzy PID control method. The results show that the TS Fuzzy PID control method has more excellent dynamic antistatic performances, as well as anti-jamming performance.

voltage sags represent the greatest threat to the sensitive loads of industrial consumers, the microprocessor based-loads, and any electrical sensitive components. In this paper, a special topology is proposed to mitigate deep and long duration sags by using a modified AC to AC boost converter with a new control method. A boost converter is redesigned with a single switch to produces an output voltage that is linearly proportional to the duty cycle of the switch. On the other hand, the proposed control system is based on introducing a mathematical model that relates the missing voltage to the duty cycle of the boost converter switch. The simulation results along with the system analysis are presented to confirm the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed circuit.

This paper proposes a lateral balancing structure based on precession effect of double-gyroscopes and its associated control strategy of the steering for an underactuated unicycle robot. Double-gyroscopes are symmetrically designed on the top of the unicycle robot and utilized to adjust the lateral balance of system. Such design can inhibit the disturbance of the gyroscope system to the pitch angle and is beneficial to maintain the lateral balance in the case of large roll angle fluctuations. Based on the analysis of the dynamics model, the gyroscope precession effects will be caused by the angular velocity of the bottom wheel and the roll angular velocity, i.e., resulting in a torque in the direction of the yaw. Then, a rapid response control strategy is proposed to use the torque to control the steering. Simulation results demonstrate the rationality of the lateral balance structure and the feasibility of the steering control method.

Fish are very efficient swimmers. In this paper, we studied a two degree-of-freedom (DOF) propeller that mimic fish caudal fin like locomotion. Kinematics modelling and hydrodynamic CFD analyses of the two DOF propellers were conducted. According to the CFD simulation, we show that negative power was generated within the flapping cycle, and wake flow at different instant was demonstrated. Based on the dynamic model, we compared the thrust efficiency under different stiffness control method. The results show that the thrust efficiency was enhanced under moderate stiffness control strategy.

Background: The parallel mechanism is widely used in motion simulators, parallel machine tools, medical equipment and other fields. It has advantages of high rigidity, stable structure and high carrying capacity. However, the control strategy and control method are difficult to study because of the complexity of the parallel mechanism system. Objective: The purpose of this paper was to verify the dynamic model of a hydraulic driven 3-DOF parallel mechanism and propose a compound control strategy to broaden the bandwidth of the control system. Methods: The single rigid body dynamic model of the parallel mechanism was established by the Newton Euler method. The feed forward control strategy based on joint space control with inverse kinematic was designed to improve the bandwidth and control precision. The co-simulation method based on MATLAB / SIMULINK and ADAMS was adopted to verify the dynamics and control strategy. Results: The bandwidth of each degree of freedom in the 3-DOF parallel mechanism was used to expand about 10Hz and the amplitude error was controlled below 5%. Conclusion: Based on the designed dynamic model and composite control strategy, the controlled accuracy of the parallel mechanism is improved and the bandwidth of the control system is broadened. Furthermore, the improvements can be made in aspects of control accuracy and real-time performance to compose more patents on parallel mechanisms.

We present a control strategy for nonlinear nontriangular uncertain systems. The proposed control method is a synergy between the dynamic adaptive backstepping (DAB) and integral sliding mode (ISM) and is referred to as DAB-ISMC. Our main objective is to find a recursive procedure to transform a nontriangular system into an implementable form that enables designing a control law which almost eliminates the reaching-phase. The proposed method further facilitates minimization of chattering which is believed to be a shortcoming of the sliding mode control. In this methodology, the ISM, as an integrated subsystem of DAB, is introduced at the final stage of backstepping. This strategy works very well to obtain a system that is robust against model imperfections, matching and unmatching uncertainties. The DAB-ISMC method is applied on a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) and simulation results obtained on Matlab are found to be very promising.

This paper proposes the topological generated method, control method and circuit feature of the single primary winding current-fed full-bridge MIC. The MIC has only one primary winding. Compared with the traditional multiple primary winding current-fed MIC, it has simpler structure, more flexible control and can power the load simultaneously or individually. The Pulsating Current Source Cell in the converter is Boost type. The input current is continuous and it can prolong the usage age of PV cell and fuel cell. The single primary winding current-fed double-input full-bridge converter based on Boost converter is taken as an example to analyze its operation principle, control strategy. Simulation results are presented to verify the theoretical analysis

A new control method used in the semi-active suspension is studied. The force generated by the semi-active damper can be divided into two parts, one is the uncontrollable force, and the other is the controllable force. In order to make the sprung mass have the ideal isolation effect, the controllable force should be equal to the sum of the uncontrollable force and the force generated by the suspension spring. But the controllable force is limited by many constraints. Therefore, the control strategy can be concluded. The simulation results show that the ride comfort and handling stability are both improved by the control method.
