This paper describes a robust eigenstructure assignment methodology for a constrained state feedback problem. The method, which is based upon the linear quadratic regulator and involves the minimization, via the genetic algorithm, of a multiobjective cost function, is applied to L1011 Tristar aircraft lateral dynamics. The design example generates a fixed-gain state feedback solution which shows independent phase margins of 51· in each channel, while exhibiting an eigenstructure close to that desired, lying well within specified handling quality requirements. If two states are made unavailable for feedback, the robustness properties are seriously eroded. When a dynamic feedback compensator is then used, there is a substantial recovery of the robustness. It is concluded that the genetic algorithm approach described here is easy to use and generates good multivariable stability margins.

<p>In this paper, a genetic algorithm (GA) based in an optimization approach is presented in order to search the optimum weighting matrix parameters of a linear quadratic regulator (LQR). A Macpherson strut quarter car suspension system is implemented for ride control application. Initially, the GA is implemented with the objective of minimizing root mean square (RMS) controller force. For single objective optimization, RMS controller force is reduced by 20.42% with slight increase in RMS sprung mass acceleration. Trade-off is observed between controller force and sprung mass acceleration. Further, an analysis is extended to multi-objective optimization with objectives such as minimization of RMS controller force and RMS sprung mass acceleration and minimization of RMS controller force, RMS sprung mass acceleration and suspension space deflection. For multi-objective optimization, Pareto-front gives flexibility in order to choose the optimum solution as per designer’s need.</p>

In this article, the author used the matlab software to simulate and then compared the results between the classical LQR (Linear Quadratic Regulator) controller and another method to adjust the matrix parameters toward optimization of the LQR controller. It is the GA (Genetic Algorithm) method to optimize the matrix of the LQR controller, and the results have  been verified on the nonlinear pendulum model. The Genetic Algorithm is a modern control algorithm, which is widely applied in research and practice. The main objective of this article is to use the GA algorithm in order to optimize the matrix parameters of LQR controller, whichcontrolled the position and angle of the nonlinear inverted pendulum at the stable balance point. The matlab-based simulating results showed that  the system has operated properly to the requirements and the output response has reached an equilibrium position of about 2.5 seconds.

One of the crucial problems in the dynamics and automatic control theory is balancing of an invertedpendulum robot by moving a cart along a horizontal path. This task is often used as a benchmark for di erentmethod comparison. In the practical use of the LQR method, the key problem is how to choose weight matricesQ and R correctly. To obtain satisfying results the experiments should be repeated many times with di erentparameters of weight matrices. These LQR parameters can be tuned by a Genetic Algorithm (GA) techniquefor getting better results. In our paper, the LQR parameters weight matrices Q and R which were tuned usingthe Genetic Algorithm. The simulations of the control problem are designed using MATLAB script code andMATLAB Simulink on an inverted pendulum model. The results show that the Genetic Algorithm is suitablefor tuning the parameters to give an optimal response. The control problem of the inverted pendulum was solvedsuccessfully.

Active Control Method

This study focuses on a new active control method by improving specification of a well-known intelligent numerical search method, that is the genetic algorithm. The proposed scheme modifies the specifications of the common genetic algorithm by using two strategies. First, a new constrained objective function is proposed. Then, a procedure is designed for evaluating and reducing time delay in control process. These procedures lead to a new generation of the genetic algorithm, which is more reliable. For verifying the efficiency of the proposed method, vibrations of several structures are controlled, and results are compared with other well-known methods such as the common genetic algorithm, linear quadratic regulator, and equivalent critical damping. Numerical results clearly prove the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed control process in comparison with other methods.

This paper focuses on the fault-tolerant control (FTC) problem for an electric power steering (EPS) system subjected to stochastic sensor failures, and a novel fault-tolerant controller is proposed based on the genetic algorithm (GA). A mathematical model of the EPS system with sensor failures is first established, and the state feedback control law is solved by using linear quadratic regulator techniques to stabilize the closed-loop control system. Then, the dynamic response errors of the EPS system with and without sensor faults are chosen as the optimization objective function. Furthermore, the appropriate weighting matrices are evaluated to obtain the optimal fault control law by using GA. Finally, simulation results are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.
