Abstract This paper considers development of a new design procedure for PI and Gain scheduled robust controller with PSS for turbogenerator using LMI regional regions. The obtained PI+PSS and GSC+PSS robust controllers with output and state derivative feedback for uncertain polytopic turbogenerator model ensure that all closed -loop eigenvalues lay in the prescribed LMI region. The proposed method is to guarantee the less conservativeness with respect to previous methods due to introducing a design procedure based on new auxiliary matrices. The effectiveness of this procedure is illustrated by the examples of two controllers for turbogenerator.

In this paper, a loop shaping controller design methodology for single input and a single output (SISO) system is proposed. The theoretical background for this approach is based on complex elliptic functions which allow a flexible design of a SISO controller considering that elliptic functions have a double periodicity. The gain and phase margins of the closed-loop system can be selected appropriately with this new loop shaping design procedure. The loop shaping design methodology consists of implementing suitable filters to obtain a desired frequency response of the closed-loop system by selecting appropriate poles and zeros by the Abel theorem that are fundamental in the theory of the elliptic functions. The elliptic function properties are implemented to facilitate the loop shaping controller design along with their fundamental background and contributions from the complex analysis that are very useful in the automatic control field. Finally, apart from the filter design, a PID controller loop shaping synthesis is proposed implementing a similar design procedure as the first part of this study.

Abstract A novel methodology is proposed for robust gain-scheduled PID controller design for uncertain LPV systems. The proposed design procedure is based on the parameter-dependent quadratic stability approach. A new uncertain LPV system model has been introduced in this paper. To access the performance quality the approach of a parameter varying guaranteed cost is used which allowed to reach for different working points desired performance. Numerical examples show the benefit of the proposed method.

AbstractThe paper presents a new original robust PID design method for non-minimum phase plants to achieve closed-loop performance prescribed by the process technologist in terms of settling time and maximum overshoot, respectively. The proposed design procedure has two steps: first, the uncertain system is identified using external harmonic excitation signal with frequency, second, the controller of the nominal system is designed for specified gain margin. A couple of parameters is obtained from the time domain performance specification using quadratic regression curves, the so-called performance Bparabolas so, as to simultaneously satisfy robust closed-loop stability conditions. The main benefits of the proposed method are universal applicability for systems with both fast and slow dominant dynamics as well as performance specification using time domain criteria. The proposed PID design method has been verified on a set of benchmark systems.

Abstract Possibilities of using robust controllers for a shell-and-tube heat exchanger control were studied, tested and compared by simulations and obtained results are presented in this paper. The heat exchanger was used to pre-heat petroleum by hot water; the controlled output was the measured output temperature of the heated fluid — petroleum, and the control input was the volumetric flow rate of the heating fluid — water. Robust controllers were designed using ℋ2, ℋ∞, ℋ2/ℋ∞ strategies and μ-synthesis. A comparison with the classical PID control demonstrated the superiority of the proposed robust control especially in case when the controlled process is affected by disturbances.

This paper presents robust controller design for an active automobile suspension system using an interative LQG design technique. The main objective is to design an active feedback control for an automobile suspension system to ensure the ride comfort for passengers in the presence of unknown road disturbances. The control system designed is shown to be robust to uncertainties and parametric variations. The resulting interative LQG-based control design is shown to achieve a significant improvement in the performance, while maintaining a desired level of closed-loop stability that is robust to plant uncertainties and parametric variations. The controller design is also compared to some other active suspension designs published in the literature.

SummaryA conservatism-reduced design of a gain scheduled output feedbackH∞controller for ann-joint rigid robotic manipulator, which integrates the varying-parameter rate without their feedback, is proposed. The robotic system is reduced to a 1inear parameter varying (LPV) form, which depends on the varying-parameter. By using a parameter-dependent Lyapunov function, the design of a controller, which satisfies the closed-loopH∞performance, is reduced to a solution of the parameterized linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) of parameter matrices. With a use of the concept of “multi-convexity”, the solution of the infinite LMIs in the varying-parameter and its rate space is reduced to a solution of the finite LMIs for the vertex set. The proposed controller eliminates the feedback of the varying-parameter rate and fixes its upper boundary so that the conservatism of the controller design is reduced. Experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed design.

Abstract This paper presents a gain scheduled controller design for MIMO and SISO systems in the frequency domain using the genetic algorithms approach. The proposed method is derived from the M-delta structure of closed loop MIMO (SISO) systems and the small gain theory is exploited to obtain the stability condition. An example of real system illustrates the effectiveness of the proposed output feedback gain scheduled controller design method and also the possibility to improve its performance using the genetic algorithm

An enhanced method for design of decenralised proportional integral (PI) controllers to control various variables of flotation columns is proposed. These columns are multivariable processes characterised by multiple interacting manipulated and controlled variables. The control of more than one variable is not an easy problem to solve as a change in a specific manipulated variable affects more than one controlled variable. Paper proposes an improved method for design of decentralized PI controllers through the introduction of decoupling of the interconnected model of the process. Decoupling the system model has proven to be an effective strategy to reduce the influence of the interactions in the closed-loop control and consistently to keep the system stable. The mathematical derivations and the algorithm of the design procedure are described in detail. The behaviour and performance of the closed-loop systems without and with the application of the decoupling method was investigated and compared through simulations in MATLAB/Simulink. The results show that the decouplers - based closed-loop system has better performance than the closed-loop system without decouplers. The highest improvement (2 to 50 times) is in the steady-state error and 1.2 to 7 times in the settling and rising time. Controllers can easily be implemented.

This study proposes a gain-scheduled controller with direct tuning for the position control of a pneumatic clutch actuator that is installed in heavy-duty trucks. Pneumatic clutch actuators are highly nonlinear systems and cannot be easily controlled. Industries require a simple controller design that is easy to understand and requires few trial-and-error calibrations. Therefore, we adopted a gain-scheduled proportional integral derivative (PID) control law, which is a well-known and easy-to-understand nonlinear control method. In this approach, a gain scheduler is expressed using polynomials composed of coefficient parameters and controlled object states. The unknown coefficient parameters of the polynomials are directly tuned from the controlled object input/output data without having to use a controlled object model. The proposed controller design procedure is simple and does not require system identification or trial-and-error tuning. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by an experiment using an actual vehicle. The experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method for the position control of pneumatic clutch actuators.
