چکیده

In system dynamics modeling, differential equations have been used as the basic mathematical operator. Using difference equation to build system dynamics models instead of differential equation, can be insightful for studying small organizations or systems with micro behavior. In this paper we explain how we can use difference equations to build system dynamics models. We illustrate the use of this method through its application to a case study in supply chain management.

Application of Independent Joint Control Strategy for Discrete-Time Servo Control of Overhead Cranes

In this study, a new servo control system is presented for the overhead crane based on discrete-time state feedback approach. It provides both robust tracking and load swing suppression. Inspired from independent joint and computed torque control in robot manipulator field, a new model is derived in which the crane actuators are considered as the main plant. The crane nonlinearities are then tr...
