An AFS (active front steering) on the basic of a C-EPS (column electric power steering) system was developed. Based on the mathematical model of essential components, the AFS controller was designed covering two units: an EPS actuator unit was used to reduce the steering torque requirement to the driver; an AFS actuator unit was used to compensate the steering angle for steering characteristics...

In present work the various aspects on mathematical modelling, stability and control strategies of flexible double link manipulator have been investigated. A mathematical model of flexible double link manipulator has been developed using lagrangian method. This mathematical model has been characterized using classical and modern control theories. Their time domain and frequency domain analysis ...

A tape transport system consisting of a take-up reel servo, a supply-reel servo, and a capstan servo is proposed. The mathematical model of the system is derived. Two well know controllers – Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) and P/PI controller, are designed to regulate the output of the system. An input gain matrix N is calculated and applied to the LQR to eliminate steady-state offset. Simulat...

In the control theory one attempts to find a controller that provides the best possible performance with respect to some given measures of performance. There are many sorts of controllers e.g. a typical PID controller, LQR controller, Fuzzy controller etc. In the paper will be introduced polynomial controller with novel tuning method which is based on the special pole placement encoding scheme ...

This paper considers application of L1 adaptive output feedback controller to a missile longitudinal autopilot design. The proposed adaptive controller has satisfactory performance in the presence of parametric uncertainties and time-varying disturbances. Simulations demonstrate the benefits of the control method and compare the results to Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) and Linear Quadratic G...

State-of-the-art approaches in quadrotor control split the problem into multiple cascaded subproblems, exploiting the different time scales of the rotational and translational dynamics. They calculate a desired acceleration as input for a cascaded attitude controller but omit the attitude dynamics. These approaches use limits on the desired acceleration to maintain feasibility and robustness th...

In this paper, the main goal is to reduce the heave motion between a surface effect ship (SES) and a wind turbine in order to safely transfer equipment and person to SES. For this purpose, an LQR control system is designed to damp the vertical motion of the surface effect ship in critical sea states including high-frequency and high amplitude regular waves as well as high frequency irregular wa...

In this paper, the optimal power flow (OPF) problem is augmented to account for the costs associated with the loadfollowing stability of a power network. Load-following stability costs are expressed through the linear quadratic regulator (LQR). The power network is described by a set of nonlinear differential algebraic equations (DAEs). By linearizing the DAEs around a known equilibrium, a line...

_ Inverted pendulum control is one of the fundamental and interesting problems in the field of control theory. This paper describes the steps to design various controllers for a rotary motion inverted pendulum which is operated by a rotary servo plant, SRV 02 Series. Nonlinear model of the rotary inverted pendulum and linear model (Upright) in the neighborhood of an equilibrium state are descri...

The H2-optimal controller for systems with preview, in which the knowledge of external input is available in advance for the controller, is derived. The single input case is first considered and solved by transforming the problem into a non-standard LQR problem. It turns out that the extensions to multiple inputs and multiple preview times cases are straightforward. In every case considered, th...
