A theory has been developed for the ferrite field d.c. linear motor based upon the generalised machine approach. Expressions for steady state and transient response of such motors have also been developed. Various motor parameters can be determined by analysing the transient response of the motor speed.

This paper proposes a guarantee steady state observation precision and pole assignment precision of the feedback controller, the basic idea is to introduce state observer can easily get dc linear motor speed and acceleration condition, state space pole assignment can pass, select the appropriate zero pole can improve the control performance of the motor. Based on the observation of the gain matrix can compensate for the steady-state error of the dc linear motor. Based on the observation of the gain matrix can compensate for the steady-state error of the dc linear motor. Matlab simulation results show that the control algorithm is compared with the traditional pole assignment, it is able to quickly and accurately follow the speed of the motor. The system has better dynamic and steady-state performance, and its characteristic of the closed-loop system robustness is stronger.

Iron-core linear motors have been widely used in high-speed/high-accuracy positioning systems due to the elimination of mechanical transmissions. Many control methodologies have been developed for linear motor motion control, such as H∞ control, adaptive control and sliding mode control. Compensations of various nonlinearities such as frictions and cogging forces have also been carried out to obtain better tracking performance. However, the relationship between the driving current and the resulting motor force has been assumed to be linear, which is invalid for high driving coil currents due to the saturating electromagnetic field effect. This paper focuses on the effective compensation of nonlinear electromagnetic field effect so that the system can be operated at even higher acceleration or heavier load without losing achievable control performance. Specifically, cubic polynomials with unknown weights are used for an effective approximation of the unknown nonlinearity between the electromagnetic force and the driving current. The effectiveness of such an approximation is verified by off-line identification experiments. An adaptive robust control (ARC) algorithm with online tuning of the unknown weights and other system parameters is then developed to account for various uncertainties. Theoretically, the proposed ARC algorithm achieves a guaranteed transient and steady-state performance for position tracking, as well as zero steady-state tracking error when subjected to parametric uncertainties only. Comparative experiments of ARC with and without compensation of electromagnetic nonlinearity done on a linear-motor-driven industrial gantry will be shown. The results show that the proposed ARC algorithm achieves better tracking performance than existing ones, validating the effectiveness of the proposed approach in practical applications.

In this paper, an improved load sharing control scheme is presented, which is able to improve the transient response and power sharing accuracy of parallel-connected inverters used in microgrid. It also shows how the improved droop method can be easily adapted to account for the operation of parallel-connected inverters, providing good performance under the variation and disturbance of loads, as well as achieving good steady-state objectives and transient performance. Two DSP-based single-phase Microgrid inverters are designed and implemented. Simulation and experimental results are all reported, confirming the validity of the proposed control technique.

Having a small-scale turbojet engine operate at a desired speed with minimum steady state error, while maintaining good transient response is crucial in many applications, such as UAVs, and requires precise control of the fuel flow. In this paper, first the mathematical model of a Small-Scale Turbojet Engine (SSTE) is obtained using system identification tests, and then based on this model, a classical PI controller is designed. Afterwards, to improve on the transient response and steady state performance of this classical controller, a Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) is designed. The design process for the FLC employs logical deduction based on knowledge of the engine behavior and iterative tuning in the light of software- and hardware-in-the-loop simulations. The classical and fuzzy logic controllers are both implemented on an in-house, embedded Electronic Control Unit (ECU) running in real time. This ECU is an integrated device carrying a microcontroller based board, a fuel pump, fuel line valves, speed sensor and exhaust gas temperature sensor inputs, and starter motor and glow plug driver outputs. It mainly functions by receiving a speed reference value via its serial communication interface. Based on this reference, a voltage is calculated and applied to the fuel pump in order to regulate the fuel flow into the engine, thereby bringing the engine speed to the desired value. Pre-defined procedures for starting and stopping the engine are also automatically performed by the ECU. Further, it connects to a computer running an in-house comprehensive Graphical User Interface (GUI) software for operating, monitoring, configuration and diagnostics purposes. The designed controllers are used to drive a generic SSTE. Reference inputs consisting of step, ramp and chirp profiles are applied to the controllers. The engine response using both controllers are recorded and inspected. The results show that the FLC exhibits a comparable performance to the classical controller, with possible opportunities to improve this performance.

Objective: Ironless, permanent magnet, synchronous linear (IPMSL) motors are applied widely in precision servo control for the nonexistence of cogging forces and comparatively small fluctuations in thrust and speed. Method: The air and water cooling structures are designed by assuming the heat loss in the motor operations is the source for the distribution of the temperature field in the analysis under natural cooling. Conclusion: The temperature fields of the linear motor under the two cooling modes are compared and analyzed, which helps monitor the temperature of linear motors during development and operations.

Abstract A nonlinear multi-degree-of-freedom dynamic model of a coupled dual-rotor system with an intershaft bearing and uncentralized squeeze film damper is established by using finite element method. Based on the model, the critical speed characteristic diagram and vibration modes of the system were calculated. The steady-state unbalance response is obtained by using Newmark-β algorithm. The numerical results show the effect of SFD position in the dual-rotor system on response amplitude. It is found that with the decrease of radial clearance and the increase of length-diameter ratio and lubricating oil viscosity, the damping effect of SFD is enhanced and the bistable state phenomenon can be suppressed. The transient response of the system in case of sudden unbalance occurring at the fan was simulated by applying a step function. It is demonstrated that the SFD can effectively reduce the duration and maximum amplitude of the transient process, but at certain speeds, the SFD will increase the amplitude after the system returns to steady state, the damping effect on the transient response is also enhanced with the increase of length-diameter and the decrease of radial clearance, and with the increase of the sudden unbalance value, the response is more likely to stabilized at the high amplitude state of the bistable state.

Abstract In Part I of this two-part paper, a new benchmark transient model of Inductrack systems is developed. In this Part II, the proposed model, which is governed by a set of non-linear integro-differential governing equations, is used to predict the dynamic response of Inductrack systems. In the development, a state-space representation of the non-linear governing equations is established and a numerical procedure with a specific moving circuit window for transient solutions is designed. The dynamic analysis of Inductrack systems with the proposed model has two major tasks. First, the proposed model is validated through comparison with the noted steady-state results in the literature. Second, the transient response of an Inductrack system is simulated and analyzed in several typical dynamic scenarios. The steady-state response results predicted by the new model agree with those obtained in the previous studies. On the other hand, the transient response simulation results reveal that an ideal steady-state response can hardly exist in those investigated dynamic scenarios. It is believed that the newly developed transient model provides a useful tool for dynamic analysis of Inductrack systems and for in-depth understanding of the complicated electro-magneto-mechanical interactions in this type of dynamic systems.
