Many active safety systems in automotive vehicles, for instance yaw stability systems such as ESC/ESP, depend on information about vehicle velocity, in particular lateral velocity or side-slip angle, to be able to function properly. However, the vehicle velocity is rarely measured directly due to issues of cost and reliability, and must therefore in general be inferred from other measurements, ...

Yaw system is an important part of wind turbine control system, yaw error performance index turbine, which has great influence on power generation. The utilization and the output generation have been determined by error. In order to make better aligned toward direction, reduce error, increase generated unit, angle errors analyzed, in this paper, method test, strategy studied respectively. Based...

A new closed loop fuzzy motion control system including on-line Kalman’s filter (KF) for the two dimensional motion of underactuated and underwater Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) is presented. Since the sway force is unactuated, new continuous and discrete time models are developed using a polar transformation. A new hierarchical control architecture is developed, where the high level fuzzy gu...

In this thesis we develop a gain-scheduled control law for the quadcopter unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Techniques from linear control theory are introduced and used to construct adaptive proportional and proportional-integral control laws for use with both state and observer-based output feedback. The controller monitors the yaw angle of the quadcopter and updates a gain matrix as the system ...

An AFS (active front steering) on the basic of a C-EPS (column electric power steering) system was developed. Based on the mathematical model of essential components, the AFS controller was designed covering two units: an EPS actuator unit was used to reduce the steering torque requirement to the driver; an AFS actuator unit was used to compensate the steering angle for steering characteristics...

This paper presents an LQR-Based 6DOF control of an unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), namely a small-scale quadrocopter. Due to its high nonlinearity and a high degree of coupling system, the control of an UAV is very challenging. quadrocopter trajectory tracking in a 3D space is greatly affected by the quadrocopter balancing around its roll-pitch-yaw frame. Lack of precise tracking control about...
