And Control

Instead of using knowledge-based controllers, which need a lot of experience and experimental data to form a reliable knowledge base, a model-based controller is proposed in this article based on a sliding mode control method to control the brake cylinder pressures of an electropneumatic brake on subway trains. The complicated structure of the electropneumatic brake is simplified, and an order-reduced nonlinear model of the plant is built. An equivalently continuous technique based on pulse width modulation is used to deal with the discontinuity of the plant model, which is derived from the discontinuous nature of On/Off valves. The nonlinear sliding mode controller is designed for air charging and discharging periods, respectively. Measures such as continuous approximation and control dead zone are introduced into the controller to improve control performance. This article concerns mainly about the theoretical part of the whole research. Plant parameter identification and controller tests are performed in a sequel article.

In this chapter, three methods for synchronizing of two chaotic gyros in the presence of uncertainties, external disturbances and dead-zone nonlinearity are studied. In the first method, there is dead-zone nonlinearity in the control input, which limits the performance of accurate control methods. The effects of this nonlinearity will be attenuated using a fuzzy parameter approximator integrated with sliding mode control method. In order to overcome the synchronization problem for a class of unknown nonlinear chaotic gyros a robust adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control scheme is proposed in the second method. In the last method, two different gyro systems have been considered and a fuzzy controller is proposed to eliminate chattering phenomena during the reaching phase of sliding mode control. Simulation results are also provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

Single-stage voltage step-up inverters, such as the Dual Boost Inverter (DBI), have a large operating range imposed by the high step-up voltage ratio, which together with the converter of non-linearities, makes them a challenge to control. This is particularly the case for grid-connected applications, where several cascaded and independent control loops are necessary for each converter of the DBI. This paper presents a global current control method based on a combination of a linear proportional resonant controller and a non-linear sliding mode controller that simplifies the controller design and implementation. The proposed control method is validated using a grid-connected laboratory prototype. Experimental results show the correct performance of the controller and compliance with power quality standards.

The Impact

A new integrated guidance and control (IGC) law is investigated for a homing missile with an impact angle against a ground target. Firstly, a control-oriented model with impact angle error of the IGC system in the pitch plane is formulated by linear coordinate transformation according to the motion kinematics and missile dynamics model. Secondly, an IGC law is proposed to satisfy the impact angle constraint and to improve the rapidity of the guidance and control system by combining the sliding mode control method and nonlinear extended disturbance observer technique. Thirdly, stability of the closed-loop guidance and control system is proven based on the Lyapunov stability theory, and the relationship between the accuracy of the impact angle and the estimate errors of nonlinear disturbances is derived from stability of the sliding mode. Finally, simulation results confirm that the proposed IGC law can improve the performance of the missile guidance and control system against a ground target.

The dynamics and control of a strongly nonlinear 3-DOF model for ship motion are investigated. The model describes the roll, sway, and heave motions occurring in a vertical plane when the vessel is subjected to beam seas. The ship is installed with active antiroll tanks as a means of preventing large amplitude roll motions. A robust state feedback controller for the pumps is designed that can handle model uncertainties, which arise primarily from unknown hydrodynamic loads. The approach for the controller design is a combination of sliding mode control and composite control for singularly perturbed systems, with the help of the backstepping technique. It is shown that this design can effectively control roll motions of large amplitude, including capsize prevention. Numerical simulation results for an existing fishing vessel, the twice-capsized Patti-B, are used to verify the analysis. [S0022-0434(00)02701-5]

Hypersonic technology plays an important role in prompt global strike. Because the flight dynamics of a hypersonic vehicle is nonlinear, uncertain, and highly coupled, the controller design is challenging, especially to design its guidance and control law during the attack of a maneuvering target. In this paper, the sliding mode control (SMC) method is used to develop the guidance law from which the desired flight path angle is derived. With the desired information as control command, the adaptive neural control in discrete time is investigated ingeniously for the longitudinal dynamics of the hypersonic missile. The proposed guidance and control laws are validated by simulation of a hypersonic missile against a maneuvering target. It is demonstrated that the scheme has good robustness and high accuracy to attack a maneuvering target in the presence of external disturbance and missile model uncertainty.

As the deviation error will accumulate during the data acquisition and transcoding process of an active suspension system, this paper presents a sliding-mode-based quantized feedback control method. The aim of the controller is to improve the vertical performance of vehicles in the presence of external interferences. A 7-DOF suspension model with nonlinear springs and actuator dynamics is built for the control purpose. Firstly, a static quantizer on the uplink channel and a dynamic quantizer on the downlink channel are considered in the sliding mode controller to reduce the cumulative error and suppress the sprung mass motions. Secondly, an event trigger mechanism is introduced in the controller design process to reduce energy consumption and operation frequency of the actuator. The overall stability of the designed controller is proved by the Lyapunov functions. Finally, numerical simulations are carried out to evaluate the efficacy of the proposed controller. Different quantitative and trigger conditions are discussed, and the random road excitation is considered as the external disturbance input. The results of the control method indicate that the designed controller can improve the riding comfort with little loss of handling stability compared with the passive system. In addition, the trigger mechanism can improve the working efficiency of actuators effectively.

This paper is devoted to designing a fractional order Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) type sliding mode control method (FO-PIDSMC) for a non-linear liquid level coupled tank process system. By considering the individual advantages of the FO calculus and PID type SMC method, this proposed FO-PIDSMC technique is designed to integrate the FO calculus method with PID type SMC scheme to obtain an accurate and robust liquid level tracking in terms of the predefined reference trajectory. The real-time experimental results of the proposed controller suggest a dramatic improvement over the traditional process system controller methods in both trajectory tracking and required control action.
