This paper is devoted to the robust stabilization and passivity of general uncertain nonlinear systems. It is first proved that the unforced system has a unique local solution with any initial value in some neighborhood of the origin. Some properties of robust passive systems are obtained. Based on these properties, it is verified that under some conditions robust passivity of the uncertain sys...

in this study, a new servo control system is presented for the overhead crane based on discrete-time state feedback approach. it provides both robust tracking and load swing suppression. inspired from independent joint and computed torque control in robot manipulator field, a new model is derived in which the crane actuators are considered as the main plant. the crane nonlinearities are then tr...

This paper presents a robust passivity-based control (RPBC) strategy for half-wave zero-voltage switching quasi-resonant (HW-ZVS-QR) buck and boost type converters. The proposed controller is based on energy shaping damping injection. Theoretical analysis shows that the resulted closed-loop HW-ZVS-QRs are globally asymptotically stabilised even if physical constraint magnitude of signal taken i...

Torque ripple minimization of switched reluctance motor drives is a major subject based on these drives’ extensive use in the industry. In this paper, by using a well-known cascaded torque control structure and taking the machine physical structure characteristics into account, the proposed energy-based (passivity-based) adaptive sliding algorithm derived from the view point of energy dissipati...

This paper focuses on the lateral control of intelligent vehicles. The aim is to minimize the lateral displacement of the autonomous vehicle with respect to a given reference trajectory. The control input is the steering angle and the output is the lateral error displacement. After passivity analysis of the system to establish the properties of passivity between the inputs and outputs, we prese...
