For a magnetically suspended control moment gyro (MSCMG), which is an ideal attitude actuator for its large outputting control moment and fast response, the moving-gimbal effects due to the coupling between the moving gimbal and high-speeding rotor will make the magnetically suspended rotor (MSR) unstable. To improve control precision, both the dynamic model of MSR and the feedback linearization control are done to decouple tilting motion, and poles of the system are reconfigured to reduce control error. To suppress the varying disturbance moments caused by moving-gimbal effects, an extended state observer (ESO) is originally designed to estimate and compensate them timely and accurately. To improve system robustness, a two-degree freedom internal model control (2-DOF IMC) is researched to suppress model error. Compared with existing proportional integral derivative (PID) control method, simulations done on a single gimbal MSCMG with 200 N.m.s angular momentum indicated that this presented control method with ESO and 2-DOF IMC can suppress the moving-gimbal effects more effectively and make the rotor suspension more stable.

Via the vector space decomposition (VSD) transformation, the currents in an asymmetric six-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor (ASP_PMSM) can be decoupled into three orthogonal subspaces. Control of α–β currents in α–β subspace is important for torque regulation, while control of x-y currents in x-y subspace can suppress the harmonics due to the dead time of converters and other nonlinear factors. The zero-sequence components in O1-O2 subspace are 0 due to isolated neutral points. In α–β subspace, a state observer is constructed by introducing the error variable between the real current and the internal model current based on the internal model control method, which can improve the current control performance compared to the traditional internal model control method. In x–y subspace, in order to suppress the current harmonics, an adaptive-linear-neuron (ADALINE)-based control algorithm is employed to generate the compensation voltage, which is self-tuned by minimizing the estimated current distortion through the least mean square (LMS) algorithm. The modulation technique to implement the four-dimensional current control based on the three-phase SVPWM is given. The experimental results validate the robustness and effectiveness of the proposed control method.

Multimotor drive system is widely applied in industrial control system. Considering the characteristics of multi-input multioutput, nonlinear, strong-coupling, and time-varying delay in two-motor drive systems, this paper proposes a new Smith internal model (SIM) control method, which is based on neural network generalized inverse (NNGI). This control strategy adopts the NNGI system to settle the decoupling issue and utilizes the SIM control structure to solve the delay problem. The NNGI method can decouple the original system into several composite pseudolinear subsystems and also complete the pole-zero allocation of subsystems. Furthermore, based on the precise model of pseudolinear system, the proposed SIM control structure is used to compensate the network delay and enhance the interference resisting the ability of the whole system. Both simulation and experimental results are given, verifying that the proposed control strategy can effectively solve the decoupling problem and exhibits the strong robustness to load impact disturbance at various operations.

It is a challenge to design a satisfactory controller for a complex multivariable industrial system with minimal offsetting and a slow response. An internal model control method is proposed for rank-deficient systems with a time delay based on a damped pseudo-inverse. An internal model control was designed to obtain the desired dynamic characteristics of the system by transforming the time-delay system into a system without a time delay, following the Pade approximation approach. By introducing a damping factor, the internal model controller was designed based on a damped pseudo-inverse, since the inverse matrix of the rank-deficient system does not exist. Furthermore, a singular value decomposition was used to analyze the steady-state performance of the system. The selection of the damping factor was also presented, and a μ analysis was made to evaluate the stability of the system. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, a crude distillation process with five inputs and four outputs was considered as an example. The simulation results illustrate that not only can the proposed strategy guarantee the system’s stability, but it also has a relatively good dynamic performance.

Multivariable non-square systems with time delays widely exist in the chemical production process. Owing to the matrix that is adopted to describe non-square system is not square, many classical multivariable control methods can be hardly applied in such system. In this paper, based on non-square effective relative gain (NERGA), a novel internal model control method is proposed. Firstly the input and output loops of the non-square system are paired using NERGA, and then V-norm internal model controller is designed based on the model of squared subsystem. Finally, smulation study is carried out for a non-square system. The results can demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Anaerobic digestion processes offer the possibility for wastewater treatment while obtaining a benefit through the obtained biogas. This paper aims to continue the effort to adopt data-driven control methods in the case of anaerobic digestion processes. The paper proposes a data-based Internal Model Control approach applied to an anaerobic digestion process. The paper deals extensively with the issue of choosing the reference model and proposing an engineering approach to this issue. The paper also addresses the issue of verifying robust stability, a very important aspect considering the uncertainties that characterize bioprocesses in general. The approach proposed in the paper is validated through a numerical simulation using the Anaerobic Digestion Model No. 1. During the validation of the proposed control solution, the main operating conditions were analyzed, such as the setpoint tracking performance, the rejection of disturbance generated by variations in the influent concentration, and the effect of the measurement noise on the controlled variable.
