This paper describes the design and analysis of a proportional integral air speed controller and a nonlinear adaptive dynamic surface altitude controller for the longitudinal dynamics of a generic hypersonic flight vehicle. The uncertain nonlinear functions in the pure feedback flight vehicle model are approximated by using radial basis function neural networks. For the controller design, the c...

an adaptive input-output linearization method for general nonlinear systems is developed without using states of the system. another key feature of this structure is the fact that, it does not need model of the system. in this scheme, neurolinearizer has few weights, so it is practical in adaptive situations.  online training of neurolinearizer is compared to model predictive recurrent training...

this paper presents a novel indirect adaptive power system stabilizer (pss) via a developed synergetic control methodology and fuzzy systems. fuzzy system is utilized in an adaptive scheme to estimate the system using a nonlinear model. the synergetic control guarantees robustness of the controller and makes the controller easy to implement because of using a chatter free continuous control law...

In this paper, we propose a hierarchical framework to reduce the design complexity of connected cruise control (CCC), which is used to regulate the longitudinal motion of a vehicle by utilizing wireless vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication. A high-level controller is designed to generate desired motion of the CCC vehicle based on the motion of multiple vehicles ahead. A low-level controller i...

The speed limit changes frequently throughout the transportation network, due to either safety (e.g., change in geometry) or congestion management (e.g., speed harmonization systems). Any abrupt reduction in the speed limit can create a shockwave that propagates upstream in traffic. Dealing with such an abrupt reduction in speed limit is particularly important while designing control laws for a...

Autonomous driving is an appealing research topic for integrating advanced intelligent algorithms to transform automotive industries and human commuting.

This paper investigates the effect of real-time control system computational delay on the performance of a hybrid adaptive cruise control (ACC) system during braking/coasting scenarios. A hierarchical hybrid ACC system with a finite state machine (FSM) at the highrank and a nonlinear sliding mode controller (SMC) at the low-rank is designed based on a vehicle dynamics model with a brake-by-wire...

Example: design a cruise control system After gaining an intuitive understanding of the plant's dynamics and establishing the design objectives, the control engineer typically solves the cruise control problem by doing the following: 1. Developing a model of the automobile dynamics (which may model vehicle and power train dynamics, tire and suspension dynamics, the effect of road grade variatio...
