This paper investigates the design of a novel nonlinear L1 adaptive control architecture to stabilize and control an aircraft with structural damage. The airplane nonlinear model is developed considering center of gravity variation and aerodynamic changes due to damage. The new control strategy is applied by using nonlinear dynamic inversion as a baseline augmented with an L1 adaptive control strategy on NASA generic transport model in presence of un-modeled actuator dynamics, wing and vertical tail damage. The L1 adaptive controller with appropriate design of filter and gains is applied to accommodate uncertainty due to structural damage and un-modeled dynamics in the nonlinear dynamic inversion loop, and to meet desired performance requirements. The properties of the proposed nonlinear adaptive controller are investigated against a model reference adaptive control, a robust model reference adaptive control, and an adaptive sliding mode control strategy. The results clearly represent the excellent overall performance of the designed controller.

Model Reference Adaptive

In this paper, a design of a signal synthesis adaptive controller for a class of linear time-varying uncertain plants using model reference adaptive control techniques is presented. Following a discussion of the general concept, the design of an adaptive controller for unconstrained and constrained control conditions is given. The small ultimate boundness of the state error is considered as the adaptation criterion, which is shown to be satisfied by a Liapunov type stability theorem. To handle the uncertainties that are associated with the plant dynamics and its environment, a min-max concept is employed in the design of the controller. The signal synthesis adaptive approach presented in this paper does not require as many structural assumptions as do most other adaptive approachers, and this is its principal advantage. The state vectors of the plant and model are assumed to be both accessible. Some simulation results are presented which illustrate the effectiveness of the design given here.

A desire to improve the positioning accuracy of ball screws prompted an investigation into the dynamics of nanometer motion. Characterization of the ball screw indicated that nanometer motion is possible prior to friction breakaway via elastic deformation of the frictional contacts while macroscopic motion involves slipping across the friction interfaces. The observed dynamics are nonlinear, and consequently result in inconsistent and unpredictable closed-loop response while under PI position control. The ball-screw can be modeled in two stages: The microdynamic stage includes “elastic” friction while the macrodynamic stage incorporates kinetic (sliding) friction. A two-stage model reference adaptive control (MRAC) strategy is adopted and a Lyapunov design technique is applied to derive the adaptive laws. Experimental results obtained via a DSP implementation of the adaptive controller indicate that the each stage of the adaptive control performs well within the respective dynamic regions, but performance deteriorates as either controller is operated near the boundary of the regions.

Model Reference Adaptive

The evolution of the adaptive control algorithms driven by the results obtained in the application of the 1st generation of adaptive controllers (model reference adaptive control, self-tuning minimum variance) is examined. Research in the field of adaptive control has been directed, on the one hand, toward the development of a robust general purpose adaptive controller and, on the other, towards the extension of the model reference adaptive control approach to nonlinear systems. Research has also investigated the stability/passivity approach for developing dedicated adaptive control algorithms for particular classes of nonlinear plants (e.g., rigid robots). The paper will review the results obtained in these directions both from the theoretical and the practical points of view. In the final part, current research directions will be included.

In the present work, the design of an L1 adaptive controller for position control of a linear servo motor for X-Y table application has been developed. The AC Permanent Magnet Linear Synchronous Servo Motor (PMLSM) is considered. A comparative study between L1 adaptive control and Model Reference Adaptive Control (MRAC) has been made. The effectiveness of the L1 adaptive controller against uncertain parameters is analyzed based on simulated results. Robustness characteristics of both L1 adaptive controller and model reference adaptive controller to different input reference signals and different structures of uncertainty have been evaluated. The L1-adaptive controller could ensure uniformly bounded transient and asymptotic tracking for input and output signals. Simulations based on MATLAB of an x-y table based on PMLSM with time-varying friction and disturbance are presented to verify the theoretical findings. The simulation results within the environment of MATLAB/SIMULINK showed that L1-adaptive controller could give better tracking performance, dynamic and steady-state characteristics, than that obtained from MRAC for considered types of input and for various structures of uncertainties.

Model Reference Adaptive Control (MRAC) is developed to control the amount of current through the traction motors under various wheel/rail adhesion conditions while braking. More accurate estimation and control of train braking distance will allow the trains to be run with closer spacing. In order to minimize the braking distance of a train, dynamic braking forces need to be maximized while maintaining good wheel/rail adhesion. Wheel/rail adhesion coefficient plays an important role in safe train braking. Excessively large dynamic braking can cause wheel lockup that can damage the wheels and the rail. In addition, it can cause large buff loads that cause derailment or coupler damage. Dynamic braking force is directly proportional to the current supplied to the traction motors. In this study, a multibody formulation of a locomotive and three railcars is used to develop a model reference adaptive controller for adjusting the current provided to the traction motors such that the maximum dynamic braking is achieved, without wheel lockup. Aerodynamic drag and air brake forces are included in the model. The coupler forces are also considered in the control model to ensure that they remain within acceptable levels. The results indicate that the MRAC system significantly improves braking distance while maintaining better wheel/rail adhesion and coupler dynamics during braking.

The design of a fractional-order closed-loop model reference adaptive control (FOCMRAC) for anesthesia based on a fractional-order model (FOM) is proposed in the paper. This proposed model gets around many difficulties, namely, unknown parameters, lack of state measurement, inter and intra-patient variability, and variable time-delay, encountered in controller designs based on the PK/PD model commonly used for control of anesthesia, and allows to design a simple adaptive controller based on the Lyapunov analysis. Simulations illustrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed control.
