In this paper a new method is introduced and investigated for removing the destabilizing effects of time-delay parameter in control loops. The concept of the method is taken from the knowledge concerning the dynamic behaviour of irrational transfer functions (Ir-TF), which is discussed and investigated elswhere in frequency response domain and is explained briefly here. Ir-TFs, which are we...

Most approaches of chance–constrained robust MPC utilise an open– loop model for uncertainty prediction; this results in conservative control. To avoid this some approaches propose robust MPC (RMPC) based on closed–loop prediction, and these often give improved dynamic performance at a small expense to constraint handling performance. The aim of this paper is to extend the methodology of (Warre...

Motion control systems have grown in sophistication and precision. However the precision of an entire machine process, for example an assembly operation, involves factors beyond the movement of the controlled mechanism. The initial location of parts prior to handling is subject to a tolerance often much greater than the placement tolerance. The correct position of a part is relative to the fina...

FLL’s are extensively used for fast carrier synchronization. A common approach to meet the wide acquisition range and sufficiently small tracking error requirements is to adopt the wide or narrow band FLL loop in the acquisition and tracking modes and direct switching the loop. The paper analyze the influence of direct switching on performance, including the narrow band loop convergence, transi...

A decoupled control design structure and discrete time pole placement design method are proposed for MEMS-based dual-stage servo control design in magnetic disk drives. Dual-stage track following controllers are designed using a decoupled three-step design process: the voice coil motor (VCM) loop design, the microactuator (MA) inner loop design, and the MA outer loop design. Both MIMO (when the...

in this paper, distributed parameter process systems behavior is studied in frequency domain. based on the dominant gain concept that is developed for such studies, a method is presented to control distributed parameter process systems. by using dominant gain concept, the location of open loop zeros, resulted from the time delay parameter in the process model, were changed from the right half p...

In this paper, an innovative control method, namely angle-current dual-loop feedback control, is proposed for use with microstepping motors. This method involves adjusting the stator excitation angle and current simultaneously on basis of sensor motor. The expected to enhance positioning accuracy energy efficiency stepping was tested by implementing it in a motor system, which included core mic...

this paper focuses on the effects of closed- control on the calculation of the dynamic load carrying capacity (dlcc) for mobile-base flexible-link manipulators. in previously proposed methods in the literature of dlcc calculation in flexible robots, an open-loop control scheme is assumed, whereas in reality, robot control is achieved via closed loop approaches which could render the calculated ...
