In the area of semi-active control of civil structures, Magneto-Rheological (MR) damper has been an efficient mechanism for reducing the seismic response of structures. In this paper, an effective method based on defining an optimization problem for designing MR dampers has been proposed. In the proposed method, the parameters of semi-active control system are determined so that the maximum res...

This study proposes a combination of a fuzzy sliding mode controller (FSMC) with integral-proportion-Derivative switching surface based superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) and PID tuned by a multi-objective optimization algorithm to solve the load frequency control in power systems. The goal of design is to improve the dynamic response of power systems after load demand changes. In t...

We give wavelet description for nonlinear optimal dynamics (energy minimization in high power electromechanical system). We consider two cases of our general construction. In a particular case we have the solution as a series on shifted Legendre polynomials, which is parametrized by the solution of reduced algebraical system of equations. In the general case we have the solution as a multireso-...

Singular systems have been studied extensively during the last two decades due Abstract to their many practical applications. Such systems possess numerous properties not shared by the well-known state variable systems. This paper considers the linear tracking problem for the continuous-time singular systems. The Hamilton-Jacobi theory is used in order to compute the optimal control and associa...

planning robot trajectory is a complex task that plays a significant role in design and application of robots in task space. the problem is formulated as a trajectory optimization problem which is fundamentally a constrained nonlinear optimization problem. open-loop optimal control method is proposed as an approach for trajectory optimization of cable parallel manipulator for a given two-end-po...
