Typical production objectives in distillation process require the delivery of products whose compositions meet certain specifications. The distillation control system, therefore, must hold product compositions as near the set points as possible in faces of upset. In this project, inferential model predictive control, that utilizes an artificial neural network estimator and model predictive cont...

the networked control system in modern control widely uses to decrease the implementation cost and increasing the performance. ncs in addition to its advantages is inevitable. nevertheless they suffer of some limitations and deficiencies. packet loss is one of the main limitations which affect the control system in different conditions and finally may lead to system instability. for this reason...

Modelling of the motion of a helicopter with a suspended load is described. The mathematical model takes into account stochastic disturbances acting on the load suspension point. The proposed approach allows solution of the problem of optimal control with minimization of oscillation and control power expenditure. The evolution of the system solution with time is investigated for various disturb...

In the present paper, a new 2-D Van der Polstructural oscillator model is introduced for the vortex induced vibrations of circular cylinders.The main purpose of this task is to control the recently introduced model by means of modern control definitions in state space. In order to control the system, the whole model is linearized about its equilibrium point by deriving state-space matrices. The...

Background: The transtheoretical model (TTM) is used as a framework to implement smoking cessation programs. This model has some subscales based on which the smoking temptation scale is proposed as stages movement factor. This study aimed to translate and validate the temptation subscales of the TTM questionnaire in the Iranian population. Methods...

This short note points out an improvement on the robust stability analysis for electrically driven robots given in the paper. In the paper, the author presents a FAT-based direct adaptive control scheme for electrically driven robots in presence of nonlinearities associated with actuator input constraints. However, he offers not suitable stability analysis for the closed-loop system. In other w...
