Magnetic Levitation System (MLS) has become a current study in the field of engineering due to its advantages such as low energy consumption and minimum friction. MLSs are nonlinear unstable systems. Due complexity structure difficulty controls, many advanced control theories can be applied on these systems performance controllers evaluated. In this article, Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PI...

The aim of the present work is to continue the development of the prototype ALIV3, focusing on the estimation and control of the attitude. First the differences in motion and configurations of a tilt-quadrotor in relation with a common quadrotor are explained. The mass properties and actuators of the prototype are measured through tests specially developed. In the identification of the motors t...

A novel composite control scheme for a manipulator with flexible links and joints is presented that uses the singular perturbation technique (SPT) to divide the manipulator dynamics into reduced order slow and fast subsystems. A neural network controller is then applied for the slow subsystem and a state-feedback H∞ controller for the fast subsystem. Results are presented that demonstrate impro...

This paper studies the lateral control problem for intelligent vehicles based on concept of shared control. Considering participation drivers in loop, a control-based controller is designed, which consists two differed controllers: one an LQR-based autonomous driving and other driver’s intention-based fuzzy controller. For vehicle dynamic model with two-degrees freedom, LQR are designed. Then, ...

This article presents the design and real-time implementation of an optimal collaborative approach to obtain desired trajectory tracking two Degree Freedom (DOF) pantograph end effector position. The proposed controller constructively synergizes Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) by taking their weighted sum. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is op...

This paper is concerned with the linear quadratic regulation (LQR) problem for linear discrete-time systems with multiple delays in a single input channel. Although the LQR problem for discrete-time systems with single delay in each of the multiple input channels has been studied in existing literature, the problem to be addressed in this paper is known to be very difficult and has not been wel...

The rocket is the only vehicle that launches the spacecraft in the space. The orientation of the spacecraft in precise position is so crucial. But, the motion of the rocket can be influenced by internal and external disturbances. Furthermore, the rocket is a multi-input and multi-output nonlinear system whose dynamics are unstable and poorly understood. Hence, attitude control of the rocket is ...

This paper discusses a multiple input and multiple output (MIMO) model to simulate a two link rigid manipulator. The mathematical modeling of two link rigid manipulator is obtained by using Euler’s Lagranges method.The model is non linear and the response is unbounded. Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) and Linear quadratic regulator(LQR ) are designed and the responses are compared using M...

A fuzzy control design method for four-wheel-steering vehicles, using fuzzy models, is presented. The design model is obtained from a vehicle model using fuzzy modeling approach. In the first step of the controller design, an optimal steering controller is proposed for each local model using LQR method. Then, the local controllers are combined using fuzzy rules to form a fuzzy controller. In th...
