thyristor-controlled series compensator (tcsc) is one of the electric power lines series compensators. tcsc increases transmission system capacity and improves system dynamic and voltage stability. several controllers have been proposed, but most of them generally improve one of tcsc capabilities. in this paper a tcsc robust controller is designed based on nonlinear quantitative feedback theory...

In this study, a robust neuro-adaptive controller for cable-driven parallel robots is proposed. The robust neuroadaptive control system is comprised of a computation controller and a robust controller. The computation controller containing a neural-network-estimator with radial basis function activator is the principal controller and the robust controller is designed to achieve tracking perform...

This paper addresses the design of a nonlinear time-invariant, dynamic state feedback receding horizon controller, which guarantees constraint satisfaction, robust stability and offset-free control of constrained, linear time-invariant systems in the presence of time-varying setpoints and unmeasured, persistent, additive disturbances. First, this objective is obtained by designing a dynamic, li...

This study proposes a combination of a fuzzy sliding mode controller (FSMC) with integral-proportion-Derivative switching surface based superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) and PID tuned by a multi-objective optimization algorithm to solve the load frequency control in power systems. The goal of design is to improve the dynamic response of power systems after load demand changes. In t...

In this paper, using the three-phase induction motor fifth order model in a stationary twoaxis reference frame with stator current and rotor flux as state variables, a conventional backsteppingcontroller is first designed for speed and rotor flux control of an induction motor drive. Then in orderto make the control system stable and robust against all electromechanical parameter uncertainties a...

A new robust nonlinear controller is presented and applied to a planar 2-DOF parallel manipulator with redundant actuation. The robust nonlinear controller is designed by combining the nonlinear PD (NPD) control with the robust dynamics compensation. The NPD control is used to eliminate the trajectory disturbances, unmodeled dynamics and nonlinear friction, and the robust control is used to res...

a chaotic optimization algorithm (coa) based approach for the robust coordinated design of the upfc power oscillation damping controller and the conventional power system stabilizer has been investigated in this paper. chaotic optimization algorithms, which have the features of easy implementation, short execution time and robust mechanisms of escaping from local optimum, is a promising tool fo...
