To develop the control system of multi-range hydro-mechanical continuously variable transmission (HMCVT), a model of a multi-range HMCVT is built using the principle of dynamics. According to the characteristic of power split, HMCVT is separated as axes set, variable displacement pump-motor system, clutch set. With wheel tractor as application instance, the whole model of vehicle power train is made, which includes the engine, HMCVT, running system and control system. Based on the theory of Finite State Machine, an automatic control method of speed change and range shift is present, which employs the throttle value, engine speed, range number and transmission ratio as the control parameters. The dynamic characteristic of automatic speed changing and ranges shifting is simulated. The result indicates that the model can correctly represent the dynamic characteristic of HMCVT, the engine can run at the optimal working point, the multi-range HMCVT can shift range steadily and change transmission ratio continuously when the load changes, the circularly shift range is avoided. The model can be used conveniently for the analysis of vehicle dynamic performance and the research of multi-range HMCVT control method.

To solve the problem of detecting the permeability of the textile machinery, a dedicated test system has been developed based on the pressure difference measuring method. The established system has a number of advantages including simple, fast and accurate. The mathematical model of influencing factors for permeability is derived based on fluid theory, and the relationship of these parameters is achieved. Further investigations are directed towards the inherent characteristics of the control system. Based on the established model and measuring features, an information fusion based clustering control system is proposed to implement the measurement. Using this mechanical structure, a PID control system and a cluster control system have been developed. Simulation and experimental tests are carried out to examine the performance of the established system. It is noted that the clustering method has a high dynamic performance and control accuracy. This cluster fusion control method has been successfully utilized in powder metallurgy collar permeability testing.

This paper presents a new modeling method and a control system design procedure for a flexible rotor with many elastic modes using active magnetic bearings. The purpose of our research is to let the rotor rotate passing over the 1st and the 2nd critical speeds caused by flexible modes. To achieve this, it is necessary to control motion and vibration of the flexible rotor simultaneously. The new modeling method named as Extended Reduced Order Physical Model is presented to express its motion and vibration uniformly. By using transfer function of flexible rotor-Active Magnetic Bearings system, we designed a Local Jerk Feedback Control system and conducted stability discrimination with root locus. In order to evaluate this modeling and control method, levitation experimentation is conducted.

In this work, the models and control strategy of the Electric Servo-torque System(ESS) which is used as an experiment rig for conducting dynamic performance and stability tests of aerial vehicle control surface actuation systems are presented. The detailed dynamics of the load motor and loaded flight actuator’s rotating movement in the ESS are analyzed, leading to an integrated load torque synchronization system. The kinematic dynamics of the loaded control surface driving actuator is an important consideration to estimate the trend of torque variation and to improve the performance of the load system. The load control method is expressed in terms of a multi-loop torque control law, which uses feedback and feedforward loops to meet system design requirements. Numerical examples together with experimental results are included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed models and control parameters. This brief addressed a specific utilization of the loaded actuator’s dynamics, revealing that it can reduce both the phase lag and the amplitude gain of the load torque in the Electric Servo-torque System.

Abstract This study discusses autonomous standing up from the parking mode and ensuring stability for low-speed driving of a novel motorcycle, named “MOTOROiD”. In 2017, Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd. released a motorcycle with a self-stabilizing mechanism, “MOTOROiD.” This prototype has a new rotary axis and can vary the position of the total center of gravity. This axis is called AMCES (Active Mass CEnter control System). This paper shows the modeling of MOTOROiD with parameters uncertainties for the control system design. The modeling is performed based on two different methods for established model verification: Lagrange’s equation method and the multibody dynamics. By using the established model, a unified control method for standing up from the parking mode and ensuring stability is designed by using a two-degree-of-freedom control system structure. The effectiveness of the modeling and control system design to the system with the variable parameter is verified by numerical simulations.

 A quadrotor is a four-rotor aircraft capable of vertical take-off and landing, hovering, forward flight, and having great maneuverability. Its platform can be made in a small size make it convenient for indoor applications as well as for outdoor uses. In model there are four input forces that are essentially the thrust provided by each propeller attached to each motor with a fixed angle. The quadrotor is basically considered an unstable system because of the aerodynamic effects; consequently, a close-loop control system is required to achieve stability and autonomy. Such system must enable the quadrotor to reach the desired attitude as fast as possible without any steady state error. In this paper, an optimal controller is designed based on a Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) control method to obtain stability in flying the quadrotor. The dynamic model of this vehicle will be also explained by using Euler-Newton method. The mechanical design was performed along with the design of the controlling algorithm. Matlab Simulink was used to test and analyze the performance of the proposed control strategy. The experimental results on the quadrotor demonstrated the effectiveness of the methodology used.

This paper discusses the modeling and control of a robotic manipulator with a new deburring tool, which integrates two pneumatic actuators to take advantage of a double cutting action. A coordination control method is developed by decomposing the robotic deburring system into two subsystems; the arm and the deburring tool. A decentralized control approach is pursued, in which suitable controllers were designed for the two subsystems in the coordination scheme. In simulation, three different tool configurations are considered: rigid, single pneumatic and integrated pneumatic tools. A comparative study is performed to investigate the deburring performance of the deburring arm with the different tools. Simulation results show that the developed robotic deburring system significantly improves the accuracy of the deburring operation.
