Safety is one of important factors in control of mechatronic systems interacting with humans. In order to evaluate the safety of such systems, mechanical impedance is often utilized as it indicates the magnitude of reaction forces when the systems are subjected to motions. Namely, the mechatronic systems should have low mechanical impedance for improved safety. In this paper, a methodology to design controllers for reduction of mechanical impedance is proposed. For the proposed controller design, the mathematical definition of the mechanical impedance for open-loop and closed-loop systems is introduced. Then the controllers are designed for stable and unstable systems such that they effectively lower the magnitude of mechanical impedance with guaranteed stability. The proposed method is verified through case studies including simulations.

Surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors in the form of two-port resonators or delay lines are widely used in various fields of application. The readout of such sensors is achieved by electronic systems operating either in an open-loop or in a closed-loop configuration. The mode of operation of the sensor system is usually chosen based on requirements like, e.g., bandwidth, dynamic range, linearity, costs, and immunity against environmental influences. Because the limit of detection (LOD) at the output of a sensor system is often one of the most important figures of merit, both readout structures, i.e., open-loop and closed-loop systems, are analyzed in terms of the minimum achievable LOD. Based on a comprehensive phase noise analysis of these structures for both resonant sensors and delay line sensors, expressions for the various limits of detection are derived. Under generally valid conditions, the equivalence of open-loop and closed-loop operation is shown for both types of sensors. These results are not only valid for SAW devices, but are also applicable to all kinds of phase-sensitive sensors.

The problem of stabilization of rigid bodies has received a great deal of attention for many years. People have developed a variety of feedback control laws to meet their design requirements and have formulated various but mostly open loop numerical algorithms for the dynamics of the corresponding closed loop systems. Since the conserved quantities such as energy, momentum, and symmetry play an important role in the dynamics, we investigate the conserved quantities for the closed loop control systems which formally or asymptotically stabilize rigid body rotation and modify the open loop numerical algorithms so that they preserve these important properties. Using several examples, the authors first use the open loop algorithm to simulate the tumbling rigid body actions and then use the resulting closed loop one to stabilize them.

<p>This Work deals with design, modeling and simulation of parallel cascaded buck boost converter inverter based closed loop controlled solar system. Two buck boost converters are cascaded in parallel to reduce the ripple in DC output. The DC from the solar cell is stepped up using boost converter. The output of the boost converter is converted to 50Hz AC using single phase full bridge inverter. The simulation results of open loop and closed loop systems are compared. This paper has presented a simulink model for closed loop controlled solar system.  Parallel cascaded buck boost converter is proposed for solar system.</p>

The effects of fluid transients, or water hammer, in closed loop systems are somewhat different than those observed in open ended systems. The open loop system has received much attention in the literature, not so for the closed system. The generally accepted method of characteristics (MOC) technique was applied herein to investigate closed loop systems. The magnitudes of the pressures during fluid transients were investigated for examples of rapid valve closures, and the operations of parallel pumps. The effects of trapped air in the system were also considered for these examples. To reduce the pressures caused by the transients, the installation of slow closing valves were evaluated for different conditions.

Several methods have been devised for generating Bode diagrams on an analog computer. All of them, or at least all of them that we are familiar with, are either imprecise or they are excessively laborious. And the method most commonly used by analog pro grammers -graphical comparison of variables on a strip chart recording-combines both disadvantages. These can be largely avoided by a method we have found quite convenient, using analog logic and memory equipment. Our method yields phase and gain information directly and requires no manual adjustments by the computer operator other than to change the frequency of the input signal and to adjust the abscissa of the X-Y plotter. The method can be used for both open-loop and closed-loop systems and is especially useful for obtaining the open-loop response of a closed-loop system, as in figure 1. Here is how it works:
