This paper proposes an approach for the minimum time swing upof a rotary inverted pendulum. Our rotary inverted pendulum is supported bya pivot arm. The pivot arm rotates in a horizontal plane by means of a servomotor. The opposite end of the arm is instrumented with a joint whose axisis along the radial direction of the motor. A pendulum is suspended at thejoint. The task is to design a contro...

in this paper, dynamical behavior of the delay mechanism of a special projectile controller is studied, using 3d finite element simulation. the controller considered here is among of high-acceleration mechanical controllers. due to high linear and angular accelerations of the projectile and also explosion risk, experimental investigation is very limited and almost impossible. so, numerical simu...

in this paper, a novel method is developed for designing the output feedback controller for static synchronous series compensator (sssc). in the proposed method, the problem of selecting the output feedback gains for the sssc controllers is changed into an optimization problem with a time domain-based objective function.then, it is solved by using the particle swarm optimization (pso) algorithm...

This paper presents a new nonlinear backstepping controller for a direct-driven permanent magnet synchronous generator-based wind turbine, which is connected to the power system via back-to-back converters. The proposed controller deals with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) in normal condition and enhances the low-voltage ride-through (LVRT) capability in fault conditions. In this method, to...

in this paper, a new robust controller based on geometric homogeneity and adaptive integral sliding mode is proposed for a class of second order systems. the upper bound of the system disturbances is not required. fully unknown parameters have been considered in the described model and its finite–time convergence to zero equilibrium point is proved. moreover, the controller is developed in the ...
