It is difficult for crane operators to lift and maneuver payloads without causing significant, uncontrolled motion. Consequently, research in the area of crane operation has focused on designing controllers to minimize payload swing. However, lifting long and slender payloads (e.g., steel I-beams) from a non-level surface (e.g., like many outdoor construction sites) has not been addressed in much detail. This paper evaluates the amplitude of residual swing and robustness of two different control methodologies while hoisting a slender payload up into the air from an inclined surface. A semi-automatic approach, where the crane operator controls the lift direction and a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller adjusts the overhead trolley position, was developed. Experimental tests demonstrate that this method reduces the peak amplitude of residual vibration by about 80% for most non-zero incline angles.

The classical proportional integral derivative (PID) controllers are still use in various applications in industry. Magnetic levitation (ML) systems are rigidly nonlinear and sometimes unstable systems. Due to inbuilt nonlinearities of ML systems, tracking of position of ML Systems is still difficult. For the tracking purpose of position, PID controller parameters are found by choosing Cuckoo Search Algorithm (CSA) of optimization. The ranges of parameters are customized by z-n method of parameters. Simulation results show the tracking of position of ML systems using conventional and optimized parameters obtained with the CSA based controller.

Simulation Results

The autopilot on the aircraft is developed based on the mode of motion of the aircraft i.e. longitudinal and lateral-directional motion. In this paper, an autopilot is designed in lateral-directional mode for LSU-05 aircraft. The autopilot is designed at a range of aircraft operating speeds of 15 m/s, 20 m/s, 25 m/s, and 30 m/s at 1000 m altitude. Designed autopilots are Roll Attitude Hold, Heading Hold and Waypoint Following. Autopilot is designed based on linear model in the form of state-space. The controller used is a Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller. Simulation results show the value of overshoot / undershoot does not exceed 5% and settling time is less than 30 second if given step command. Abstrak Autopilot pada pesawat dikembangkan berdasarkan pada modus gerak pesawat yaitu modus gerak longitudinal dan lateral-directional.

This paper elucidates the modeling of a + quadrotor configuration aerial vehicle and the design of its attitude and altitude controllers. The aircraft model consists of four fixed pitch angle propeller, each driven by an electric DC motor. The hovering flight of the quadrotor is governed by the Newton-Euler formulation. The attitude and altitude controls of the aircraft were regulated using heuristically tuned (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) PID controller. It was numerically simulated via Simulink that a PID controller was sufficient to bring the aircraft to the required altitude whereas the attitude of the vehicle is adequately controlled by a PD controller.

In this paper, we examine the parameterization of all plants stabilized by a proportionalcontroller for multiple-input/multiple-output plant. A proportional controller is a kind of Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers. PID controller structure is the most widely used one in industrialapplications. Recently, if stabilizing PID controllers for the plant exist, the parameterization of allstabilizing PID controllers has been considered. However, no paper examines the parameterizationof all plants stabilized by a PID controller. In this paper, we clarify the parameterization of all plantsstabilized by a proportional controller for multiple-input/multiple-output plant. In addition, we presentthe parameterization of all stabilizing proportional controllers for the plant stabilized by a proportionalcontroller.

Opening And Closing

The governor actuators in some heat-engine plants have nonlinear valves. This nonlinearity of valves may lead to the inaccuracy of the opening and closing time constants calculated based on the whole segment fully open and fully close experimental test curves of the valve. An improved mathematical model of the turbine governor actuator is proposed to reflect the nonlinearity of the valve, in which the main and auxiliary piecewise opening and closing time constants instead of the fixed oil motive opening and closing time constants are adopted to describe the characteristics of the actuator. The main opening and closing time constants are obtained from the linear segments of the whole fully open and close curves. The parameters of proportional integral derivative (PID) controller are identified based on the small disturbance experimental tests of the valve. Then the auxiliary opening and closing time constants and the piecewise opening and closing valve points are determined by the fully open/close experimental tests. Several testing functions are selected to compare genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization algorithm (GA-PSO) with other basic intelligence algorithms. The effectiveness of the piecewise linear model and its parameters are validated by practical power plant case studies.
