This paper presents an improved internal model control system to raise the efficiency of refining low-carbon ferrochrome. This control system comprises of a piecewise linearized transfer function and an improved internal model controller based on optimized time constant of the filter. The control system is mainly used to control the oxygen supply rate during the argon-oxygen refining for controlling the smelting temperature. The regulatory performance and servo of two closed-loop control schemes are compared between the improved internal model controller based on the optimized filter time 0000-0002-7606-6546and the internal model controller based on the fixed filter time constant. The simulation analysis shows that the piecewise linearized model and the optimization of the time constant of the filter improves the response time, stability, and anti-interference ability of the controller. Then, the proposed improved internal model controller is used to adjust the gas supply flow in 5 ton AOD furnace to control the smelting temperature. Ten production tests performed the effectiveness of the controlling refining optimal system. The analysis of the experimental data shows that the improved internal model control system can shorten the melting time and improve the melting efficiency. Thus, the application of the improved internal model control system in low-carbon ferrochrome refining is an interesting potential direction for future research.

A Multiple Independently Targeted Reentry Vehicle (MIRV) is a ballistic missile payload containing several warheads each capable of hitting one of a group of targets. In the process of missile flight control, the release of warheads brings about coupling to the missile attitude control system which will lower the flight stability. In order to solve this problem, a missile attitude controller, which combined the α-order integral inverse system with internal model principle, was presented. Firstly, determine the Post Boost Vehicle (PBV) attitude dynamics model. Then, combine the linearization of attitude dynamics equation with feed-forward decoupling method to implement the attitude decoupling. Finally, a two-degree of freedom (TOF) multivariable internal model controller was set up to optimize the control system performance. Simulation results show that the coupling of attitude control system has been eliminated. Compared with the original system, the internal model controller provides the control system better input-tracking performance, robust stability and interference suppression capacity.

Aiming at the problem that the three-phase APF’s dynamic model is a multi-variable, nonlinear and strong coupling system, an internal model controller for three-phase APF based on LS-Extreme Learning Machine is studied in this paper. As a novel single hidden layer feed-forward neural networks, extreme learning machine (ELM) has several advantages: simple net structural, fast learning speed, good generalization performance and so on. In order to improve the controller’s dynamic responses, a least squares extreme learning machine for internal model control is proposed. A least squares ELM regression (LS-ELMR) model for the three-phase APFS on-line monitoring was built from external factors with in-out datum. Moreover, the relative stable error is presented to evaluate the system performance and the features for the internal model control system based on extreme learning machine, neural network, kernel ridge regress and support vector machine. The experimental results show that the LS-internal model control system based on extreme learning machine has good dynamic performance and strong filtering result.

In this paper, a novel decoupling control scheme combining least squares support vector machines (LSSVM) inverse models and 2-degree-of-freedom (DOF) internal model controllers is employed in the decoupling control system of the bearingless permanent magnet synchronous motor (BPMSM). This scheme can be used to enhance the control properties of high-precision, fast-response, and strong-robustness for the BPMSM system, and effectively eliminate the nonlinear and coupling influence. It introduces LSSVM inverse models into the original BPMSM system to constitute a decoupled pseudo-linear system. In addition, the particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) is used to optimize parameters of the LSSVM, which improves its fitting ability and prediction accuracy. What is more, the internal model control scheme is used to design additional closed-loop controllers, thereby improving the robustness of the entire control system. Therefore, this scheme successfully combines the advantages of the LSSVM inverse models and the internal model controller. It can enhance the stability and the static as well as dynamic properties of the whole BPMSM system while independently adjusting the tracking and interference rejection performances. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme has been verified by simulation results at various operations.

The controlled object of boiler combustion system in power plant is a complex system with nonlinear, timing change, large lagging and multi-variable coupling, and does not have precise mathematical model, so it is difficult to obtain the satisfactory control effect adopting the traditional PID control. Advanced control strategies are adopted to improve the performance of the boiler combustion control system, and it has been more and more the concern of the majority of electricity production enterprises. Internal model control is a very practical control method, and its main characteristic is simple structure, intuitive design and few online adjustment parameter, and easy adjustment policy. And it is especially particularly significant to improve the control effect of large delay system. The internal model control system is used in power station boiler combustion system, it can effectively solve the large delay, large inertia and other shortcomings, but there is the contradiction between the fast response and robustness in internal model control system. The fuzzy immune control has advantages, such as, fast response, fast stable and good robust, etc. The fuzzy immune control is introduced into internal model control system, this paper designs fuzzy immune internal model controller, which integrates speed and robustness of the internal model control. The fuzzy immune internal model control is applied to combustion control system, and we compare it with ordinary internal model control method. The simulation result shows that fuzzy immune internal model control can greatly improve the characteristics of the control system with time delay. And this effectiveness of the fuzzy immune internal model controller has been verified.

To improve handling and stability for distributed drive electric vehicles (DDEV), the study on four wheel steering (4WS) systems can improve the vehicle driving performance through enhancing the tracking capability to desired vehicle state. Most previous controllers are either a large amount of calculation, or requires a lot of experimental data, these are relatively time-consuming and laborious. According to the front and rear wheel steering angle of DDEV can be distributed independently, a novel controller named internal model controller with fractional-order filter (IMC-FOF) for 4WS systems is proposed and studied in this paper. The IMC-FOF is designed using the internal model control theory and compared with IMC and PID controller. The influence of time constant and fractional-order parameters which is optimized using quantum genetic algorithms (QGA) on tracking ability of vehicle state are also analyzed. Using a production vehicle as an example, the simulation is performed combining Matlab/Simulink and CarSim. The comparison results indicated that the proposed controller presents performance to distribute the front and rear wheel steering angle for ensuring better tracking capability to desired vehicle state, meanwhile it possesses strong robustness.

Internal Model Control (IMC) is widely used in Network Control System (NCS) with its strong robustness and simple parameter adjustment. But the accurate dynamic inversion of the IMC model is not easy to find out. To solve this problem, an improved Internal Model Controller is designed with a PID controller and feedback loop, then the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is used to optimize all the parameters of the improved controller. At last, simulation results show that the improved Internal Model Controller can maintain the system stability and the performance of the step response is extremely great in terms of rapidity and anti-interference ability, compared with the classic internal model controller, which enables NCS to achieve a better control effect.

This paper focuses on a challenging problem in the internal model control (IMC) strategy: the model inversion to design the IMC controller for non-square systems. Several existing approaches for the synthesis of a specific inversion of the identified model will be presented in this paper to deal with the differences between the system’s inputs and outputs numbers. The non-square effective relative gain is firstly presented. It consists of the measurement of interactions between the loops of the system in order to square the system and make it invertible. The equivalent transfer function method is presented as well. It is based on tuning the pseudo-inverse of the process to design the internal model controller. These methods are then compared with a novel proposed model inversion approach based on virtual outputs method. Virtual adding is considered in order to obtain an invertible square transfer matrix to design the internal model controller. This simple yet effective method ensures robust control performance. Its efficiency and availability, as compared with other presented methods, is illustrated through simulations on an overactuated system with three inputs/two outputs.

A novel PID controller identification method based on internal model control structure is proposed. The proposed method avoids the necessity of approximating the time delay for designing the PID controller. It results in a robust and effective PID controller tuning. The method is effective for both time constant and time delay dominant systems, with much improved performance for the latter case.
