SUMMARY The problem of finite-time tracking control for n-link flexible-joint robot manipulators is addressed. An adaptive fuzzy finite-time command-filtered backstepping control scheme is presented to solve the following problems: “explosion of terms” problem, finite-time stabilization of the closed-loop system, and the reduction of computational cost. To this end, new virtual adaptive control signals and new finite-time error compensation mechanism are constructed using inherent properties of robot manipulator systems. Based on the Lyapunov theory, the finite-time stabilization of the closed-loop system is proved. Simulation studies show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this paper, an optimal robust adaptive fuzzy backstepping control is presented to the position control of the electro-hydraulic servo (EHS) system in the presence of structured and unstructured uncertainties. Initially, the robust control using the backstepping technique is presented to overcome the existing uncertainties in the dynamic equations. Mathematical proof demonstrates that the closed-loop system in the presence of uncertainties has a global asymptotic stability. Then, to overcome the chattering problem, a very simple fuzzy approximator is presented where it approximates the bounds of the uncertainties. Although the proposed robust fuzzy backstepping control has a desirable performance, it has no mathematical analysis to prove the stability of the closed-loop system. Therefore, to solve this problem, the proposed fuzzy approximator has been transformed into a one-law adaptive fuzzy approximator with a single-input single-output fuzzy rule. Mathematical analysis illustrates that the closed-loop system in the presence of uncertainties has a global asymptotic stability under the proposed robust adaptive fuzzy backstepping control. Furthermore, a novel modified harmony search algorithm (MHSA) has been developed, by using the original harmony search algorithm (OHSA) as an optimization technique, to achieve the optimal values of the membership functions and the control coefficients. Finally, a comparative study has been conducted between the proposed control scheme under the MHSA and the OHSA, and other existing advanced control approaches to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control. Results show that the proposed control scheme under the MHSA can suppress the chattering problem and reduce the disturbances effectively while ensuring that the performance is tracked.

Magnetic Levitation System

In this paper, a novel approach is proposed for adjusting the position of a magnetic levitation system using projection recurrent neural network-based adaptive backstepping control (PRNN-ABC). The principles of designing magnetic levitation systems have widespread applications in the industry, including in the production of magnetic bearings and in maglev trains. Levitating a ball in space is carried out via the surrounding attracting or repelling magnetic forces. In such systems, the permissible range of the actuator is significant, especially in practical applications. In the proposed scheme, the procedure of designing the backstepping control laws based on the nonlinear state-space model is carried out first. Then, a constrained optimization problem is formed by defining a performance index and taking into account the control limits. To formulate the recurrent neural network (RNN), the optimization problem is first converted into a constrained quadratic programming (QP). Then, the dynamic model of the RNN is derived based on the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) optimization conditions and the variational inequality theory. The convergence analysis of the neural network and the stability analysis of the closed-loop system are performed using the Lyapunov stability theory. The performance of the closed-loop system is assessed with respect to tracking error and control feasibility.

Semiglobal Stabilization

This paper investigates the semiglobal stabilization problem for nonholonomic mobile robots based on dynamic feedback with inputs saturation. A bounded, continuous, time-varying controller is presented such that the closed-loop system is semiglobally asymptotically stable. The systematic strategy combines finite-time control technique with the virtual-controller-tracked method, which is similar to the back-stepping procedure. First, the bound-constrained smooth controller is presented for the kinematic model. Second, the dynamic feedback controller is designed to make the generalized velocity converge to the prespecified kinematic (virtual) controller in a finite time. Furthermore, the rigorous proof is given for the stability analysis of the closed-loop system. In the mean time, the position and torque inputs of robots are proved to be bounded at any time. Finally, the simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed control approach.

Piecewise affine (PWA) systems belong to a subclass of switched systems and provide good flexibility and traceability for modeling a variety of nonlinear systems. In this paper, application of the PWA system framework to the modeling and control of an automotive all-wheel drive (AWD) clutch system is presented. The open-loop system is first modeled as a PWA system, followed by the design of a piecewise linear (i.e., switched) feedback controller. The stability of the closed-loop system, including model uncertainty and time delays, is examined using linear matrix inequalities based on Lyapunov theory. Finally, the responses of the closed-loop system under step and sine reference signals and temperature disturbance signals are simulated to illustrate the effectiveness of the design.

Adaptive Tracking Control

In order to maintain robotic manipulators at a high level of performance, their controllers should be able to address nonlinearities in the closed-loop system, such as input nonlinearities. Meanwhile, computational efficiency is also required for real-time implementation. In this paper, an unknown input Bouc–Wen hysteresis control problem is investigated for robotic manipulators using adaptive control and a dynamical gain-based approach. The dynamics of hysteresis are modeled as an additional control unit in the closed-loop system and are integrated with the robotic manipulators. Two adaptive parameters are developed for improving the computational efficiency of the proposed control scheme, based on which the outputs of robotic manipulators are driven to track desired trajectories. Lyapunov theory is adopted to prove the effectiveness of the proposed method. Moreover, the tracking error is improved from ultimately bounded to asymptotic tracking compared to most of the existing results. This is of important significance to improve the control quality of robotic manipulators with unknown input Bouc–Wen hysteresis. Numerical examples including fixed-point and trajectory controls are provided to show the validity of our method.

SUMMARYThe problem of robust adaptive control of a robotic manipulator subjected to uncertain dynamics and joint space constraints is addressed in this paper. Command filters are used to overcome the time derivatives of virtual control, thus reducing the need for desired trajectory differentiations. A barrier Lyapunov function is used to deal with the joint space constraints. A robust adaptive support vector regression architecture is used to reduce filtering errors, approximation errors and handle dynamic uncertainties. The stability analysis of the closed-loop system using the Lyapunov theory permits to highlight adaptation laws and to prove that all signals of the closed-loop system are bounded. Simulations show the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.

In this paper we present a theoretical strategy for diesel engine control. More precisely, we propose a new approach to control the speed of the engine using the fuel rate as the control law and we show how this approach can be used to control the opacity. We first establish a mathematical model that describes the behavior of the engine. Afterward, we propose a new nonlinear method to design a controller for a class of nonlinear systems. The proposed method, based on Lyapunov theory, is used to design a smooth feedback law that renders the closed-loop system asymptotically stable around a desired engine speed value. Finally, simulation results are proposed to highlight the performances of the closed-loop system.

Earthquake Excitation

The problem of robustly active vibration control for a class of earthquake-excited structural systems with time-delay and saturation in the control input channel and parameter uncertainties appearing in all the mass, damping and stiffness matrices is concerned in this paper. The objective of the designing controllers is to guarantee the robust stability of the closed-loop system and attenuate the disturbance from earthquake excitation. Firstly, by using the linear combination of some matrices to deal with the system's uncertainties, a new system uncertainties description, namely rank-1 uncertainty description, is presented. Then, by introducing a linear varying parameter, the input saturation model is described as a linear parameter varying model. Furthermore, based on parameter-dependent Lyapunov theory and linear matrix inequality (LMI) technique, the LMIs-based conditions for the closed-loop system to be stable are deduced. By solving those conditions, the controller, considering the actuator saturation, input delay and parameters uncertainties, is obtained. Finally, a three-storey linear building structure under earthquake excitation is considered and simulation results are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed controllers.

In this paper, an adaptive robust stabilization algorithm is presented for a class of non-linear systems with mismatched uncertainties. In this regard, a new controller based on the Lyapunov theory is proposed in order to overcome the problem of stabilizing non-linear time-varying systems with mismatched uncertainties. This method is such that the stability of the closed-loop system is guaranteed in the absence of the triangularity assumption. The proposed approach leads to asymptotic convergence of the states of the closed-loop system to zero for unknown but bounded uncertainties. Subsequently, this method is modified so that all the signals in the closed-loop system are uniformly ultimately bounded. Eventually, numerical simulations support the effectiveness of the given algorithm.

Mismatched Disturbances

In this paper, we propose the disturbance observer-based continuous finite-time sliding mode controller (DOBCSMC) for input-affine nonlinear systems in which additive matched and mismatched disturbances exist. The objective is to show the robustness and disturbance attenuation performance of the closed-loop system with the proposed DOBCSMC subjected to general classes of matched and mismatched disturbances. The proposed DOBCSMC consists of three main features: (i) the nonlinear finite-time disturbance observer to obtain a fast and accurate estimation of matched and mismatched disturbances, (ii) the nonlinear sliding surface to ensure high precision in the steady-state phase of the controlled output, and (iii) the continuous supertwisting algorithm to guarantee finite-time convergence of the controlled output and reduce the chattering under the effect of matched and mismatched disturbances. It should be noted that the existing approaches cannot handle time-varying mismatched disturbances and/or cannot guarantee faster finite-time stability of the controlled output. We prove that the closed-loop system with the DOBCSMC guarantees both finite-time reachability to the sliding surface and finite-time stability of the controlled output to the origin. Various simulations are performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed DOBCSMC. In particular, the simulation results show that the DOBCSMC guarantees faster convergence of the closed-loop system to the origin, higher precision of the controlled output, and better robustness performance against various classes of (time-varying) matched and mismatched disturbances, compared with the existing approaches.
