this paper proposes a novel robust control scheme based on delay-dependent h∞for unified power quality conditioner (upqc) in a microgrid under the influence of the delay and parameter uncertainties. a new upqc model considering the effects of the delay and parameter uncertainties is established. then, the h∞ controller is designed based on the cone complementarity linearization (ccl) algorithm....

The electromechanical analysis of a piezoresistive pressure microsensor with a square-shaped diaphragm for low-pressure biomedical applications is presented. This analysis is developed through a novel model and a finite element method (FEM) model. A microsensor with a diaphragm 1000 „m length and with thickness=400 µm is studied. The electric response of this microsensor is obtained with applyi...

1 Technical University of Cluj-Napoca Abstract -The paper proposes a new multiobjective optimization method, based on fuzzy techniques. The method performs a real multiobjective optimization, every parameter modification taking into account the unfulfillment degrees of all the requirements. It uses fuzzy sets to define fuzzy objectives and fuzzy systems to compute new parameter values. The stra...

A novel methodology is proposed for robust gain-scheduled PID controller design for uncertain LPV systems. The proposed design procedure is based on the parameter-dependent quadratic stability approach. A new uncertain LPV system model has been introduced in this paper. To access the performance quality the approach of a parameter varying guaranteed cost is used which allowed to reach for diffe...

One goal of experimentation is to identify which design parameters most significantly influence the mean performance of a system. Another goal is to obtain good parameter estimates for a response model that quantifies how the mean performance depends on influential parameters. Most experimental design techniques focus on one goal at a time. This paper proposes a new entropybased design criterio...

Abstract: The paper addresses the problem of output feedback guaranteed cost controller design for NCSs with time-delay and polytopic uncertainties. By constructing a new parameter-dependent Lyapunov functional and applying the free-weighting matrices technique, the parameter-dependent, delay-dependent design method will be obtained to synthesize a PID controllers achieving a guaranteed cost su...

A method for MEMS macromodel development is presented which is based on a physical device description to obtain mathematical relations for the device operation. Since design and technology parameters are input parameters of the resulting model, this method is well suited for design studies. As a benchmark problem, we refer to the macromodel of a micropump driven by an electrostatically actuated...

A gain-scheduling approach for uncertain Linear Parameter-Varying (LPV) systems with fixed linear fractional relationships on a parameter set is developed. The approach combines LPV theory based on Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs) and μ-synthesis to form a new robust approach for large envelope control design. The new approach is used to design an automatically gain-scheduled pitch-rate contro...
