In this study, a robust neuro-adaptive controller for cable-driven parallel robots is proposed. The robust neuroadaptive control system is comprised of a computation controller and a robust controller. The computation controller containing a neural-network-estimator with radial basis function activator is the principal controller and the robust controller is designed to achieve tracking perform...

This paper investigates the robust decentralized nonlinear control of power flow in a power system using a new configuration of UPFC. This structure comprises two shunt converters and one series capacitor called as hybrid power flow controller (HPFC). A controller is designed via control Lyapunov function (CLF) and adaptive observer to surmount the problems of stability such as tracking desired...

The problem of attitude stabilization of a fighter aircraft is investigated in this paper. The practical aspects of a real physical system like existence of external disturbance with unknown upper bound and actuator saturation are considered in the process of controller design of this aircraft. In order to design a robust autopilot in the presence of the actuator saturation, the Composite Nonli...

The paper introduces a contribution in the design of adaptive controllers. A PID adaptive controller derived using the mathematical formulas of model reference adaptive control (MRAC) combined with the self tuning adaptive control (STC). The controller tested in the position control of shape memory alloy (SMA) wire and enhanced by experiment to an Enhanced adaptive controller which is more robu...

This paper proposes a new adaptive controller for the robust control of a grid-connected multi-DG microgrid (MG) with the main aim of output active power and reactive power regulation as well as busbar voltage regulation of DGs. In addition, this paper proposes a simple systematic method for the dynamic analysis including the shunt and series faults that are assumed to occur in the MG. The pres...

in this research, first, kinematic and dynamic equations of a 4-dof 3-link robotic finger are derived using denavit-hartenberg convention and lagrange’s formulation. to model the muscles, several springs and dampers are placed between the finger links. then, two advanced controllers, namely adaptive-robust and adaptive-neural, which can control the robotic finger in presence of parametric uncer...

This paper presents an online two-stage Q-learning based multi-agent (MA) controller for load frequency control (LFC) in an interconnected multi-area multi-source power system integrated with distributed energy resources (DERs). The proposed control strategy consists of two stages. The first stage is employed a PID controller which its parameters are designed using sine cosine optimization (SCO...
