this paper presents h∞ control problem for input-delayed systems. a neutral system approach is considered to the design of pd controller for input delay systems in presence of uncertain time-invariant delay. using this approach, the resulting closed-loop system turns into a specific time-delay system of neutral type. the significant specification of this neutral system is that its delayed coeff...

This paper proposes a discrete-time repetitive optimal control of electrically driven robotic manipulators using an uncertainty estimator. The proposed control method can be used for performing repetitive motion, which covers many industrial applications of robotic manipulators. This kind of control law is in the class of torque-based control in which the joint torques are generated by permanen...

evolving models have found applications in many real world systems. in this paper, potentials of the evolving linear models (elms) in tracking control design for nonlinear variable structure systems are introduced. at first, an elm is introduced as a dynamic single input, single output (siso) linear model whose parameters as well as dynamic orders of input and output signals can change through ...

in recent years, many researchers have been done in the area of wireless sensornetworks that has led to the variety of algorithms and methods for the collection andtransmission of environment information; but still many challenges faced bywireless sensor networks using methodologies are applied in various fields. such asmedia access control that due to the media being shared on these networks, ...

background  & aim: case-crossover  studies are the case-control  version of crossover studies. in these studies, cases and controls are the same subjects. the term crossover is applied for designs that all subjects pass through both treatment (exposure) and placebo (non-exposure) phases. in fact they are  crossover  of  subjects  between  periods  of  exposure  and  non-exposure.  this  design ...

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...

a real-time optimization (rto) strategy incorporating the fuzzy sets theory is developed, where the problem constraints obtained from process considerations are treated in fuzzy environment. furthermore, the objective function is penalized by a fuzzified form of the key process constraints. to enable using conventional optimization techniques, the resulting fuzzy optimization problem is then re...
