A state feedback control law has been derived in Part I [1] of this two-part paper on the basis of an augmented plant model [2, 3, 4] that accounts for the randomly varying delays induced by the network in Integrated Communication and Control Systems (ICCS). The control algorithm was formulated as a linear quadratic regulator problem and then solved using the principle of dynamic programming and optimality. This paper, which is the second of two parts, presents (i) a numerical procedure for synthesizing the control parameters and (ii) results of simulation experiments for verification of the above control law using the flight dynamic model of an advanced aircraft. This two-part paper is concluded with recommendations for future work.

<p class="1Body">This paper presents mathematical modelling and control of a two-wheeled single-seat vehicle. The design of the vehicle is inspired by the Personal Urban Mobility and Accessibility (PUMA) vehicle developed by General Motors® in collaboration with Segway®. The body of the vehicle is designed to have two main parts. The vehicle is activated using three motors; a linear motor to activate the upper part in a sliding mode and two DC motors activating the vehicle while moving forward/backward and/or manoeuvring. Two stages proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control schemes are designed and implemented on the system models. The state space model of the vehicle is derived from the linearized equations. Controller based on the Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) and the pole placement techniques are developed and implemented. Further investigation of the robustness of the developed LQR and the pole placement techniques is emphasized through various experiments using an applied impact load on the vehicle.</p>

In this paper, two efficient control algorithms are discussed viz., Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) and Dynamic Matrix Controller (DMC) and their applicability has been demonstrated through case study with a complex interacting process viz., a laboratory based four tank liquid storage system. The process has Two Input Two Output (TITO) structure and is available for experimental study. A mathematical model of the process has been developed using first principles. Model parameters have been estimated through the experimentation results. The performance of the controllers (LQR and DMC) has been compared to that of industrially more accepted PID controller.

Abstract An investigation of the natural frequencies and mode shapes associated with sealed conical bores having actuating boundary conditions is presented. Beginning with the one dimensional wave equation for spherically expanding waves, modal characteristics are developed as functions of cone geometry and actuator parameters. This paper presents both analytical and experimental comparisons for the purpose of validating model and development techniques. An investigation of the orthogonality and adjointness of the solution is presented. A discussion of incorporating driving forces in the system model for the purpose of coupling control actuators with internal acoustics is also included. Including these driving forces, a state space model of the system is developed for the purpose of applying modern feedback control. This paper concludes with a study on applying Linear Quadratic Regulator techniques to this system, relating tradeoffs between spatially averaged pressure and control voltages. The results of our simulations indicate that pressure reductions of 30% are attainable with average control voltages of 14.4 volts, given an example geometry.

This research proposes control method to balance and stabilize an inverted pendulum. A robust control was analyzed and adjusted to the model output with real time feedback. The feedback was obtained using state space equation of the feedback controller. A linear quadratic regulator (LQR) model tuning and control was applied to the inverted pendulum using internet of things (IoT). The system's conditions and performance could be monitored and controlled via personal computer (PC) and mobile phone. Finally, the inverted pendulum was able to be controlled using the LQR controller and the IoT communication developed will monitor to check the all conditions and performance results as well as help the inverted pendulum improved various operations of IoT control is discussed.

With the purpose of overcoming the defect that unmanned air vehicles (UAVs) are easily disturbed by air current and tend to be unstable, an augmented-stability controller was developed for a certain UAV’s longitudinal motion. According to requirements of short-period damping ratio and control anticipation parameter (CAP) in flight quality specifications of GJB185-86 and C*, linear quadratic regulator (LQR) theory was used in the augmented-stability controller’s design. The simulation results show that the augmented-stability controller not only improves the UAV’s stability and dynamic characteristics but also enhances the UAV’s robustness.

Displaced solar orbits for spacecraft propelled by electric sails are investigated. Since the propulsive thrust is induced by the sail attitude, the orbital and attitude dynamics of electric-sail-based spacecraft are coupled and required to be investigated together. However, the coupled dynamics and control of electric sails have not been discussed in most published literatures. In this paper, the equilibrium point of the coupled dynamical system in displaced orbit is obtained, and its stability is analyzed through a linearization. The results of stability analysis show that only some of the orbits are marginally stable. For unstable displaced orbits, linear quadratic regulator is employed to control the coupled attitude-orbit system. Numerical simulations show that the proposed strategy can control the coupled system and a small torque can stabilize both the attitude and orbit. In order to generate the control force and torque, the voltage distribution problem is studied in an optimal framework. The numerical results show that the control force and torque of electric sail can be realized by adjusting the voltage distribution of charged tethers.
