Piecewise linear systems are mostly partitioned based on their state variables. Due to the system noise and estimation errors, the transitions of actual state and its estimate may not be synchronized, as well as the system modes. Motivated by the recent works [31], [29], [32], [30], [27], we consider the fault detection problem using non-synchronized observer and presents several less conservative design approaches.","PeriodicalId":176828,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE International Conference on Control Applications","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126226167","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is not possible to decouple forces and torques by applying a sinusoidal commutation scheme as is common in regular synchronous AC motors. Several commutation methods are developed based on the coupling matrix, that links the current in each coil to the force and torque vector on the actuator. Accurately calculating this position varying coupling matrix in real-time while the actuator is moving, is critical in controlling the planar actuator. In this paper, a look-up table based method is proposed that uses several small look-up tables and symmetries in the design that allows accurate real-time calculation of the coupling matrix.","PeriodicalId":176828,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE International Conference on Control Applications","volume":"124 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128057012","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We compare properties of the alignment distance to both p-norms and the Haus-dorff distance to argue its superiority for use in path following problems. While problems of finding an optimal parameterization of a fixed input curve to a tracking system are not new, typical formulations focus on parameterizations that minimize transversal time while respecting certain system constraints; on-line governors can then be employed that choose a path velocity in real time, trading off computational complexity and time-optimality. By explicitly characterizing the error measure implicit in path control problems, we revisit the off-line, open loop parameterization problem to explore the inherit tradeoffs between command shape, command parameterization, and system dynamics. The utility of the alignment distance as a tool for elucidating these fundamental tradeoffs is demonstrated on a simple PD-controlled mass system.","PeriodicalId":176828,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE International Conference on Control Applications","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121608686","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the main control goals for these systems is to keep temperature and pressure levels within tight bounds while minimizing the wear of the compressors. Since traditional control schemes leave much room for improvement, this paper presents a new nonlinear model-predictive control approach that is tailored specifically to supermarket refrigeration systems. To increase the computation time available to the nonlinear optimization step in every NMPC iteration, a low-level controller is designed which regulates the process on a short time scale. The high-level optimization task is reduced to the determination of optimal parameters for this controller. Simulation results for a hybrid process model demonstrate that the control scheme is capable of reducing the wear of the compressors compared to existing control schemes.","PeriodicalId":176828,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE International Conference on Control Applications","volume":"143 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133345014","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The control strategy aims to regulate the load voltage and the source current to the desired references in spite of the existence of harmonic components in the supply voltage and the load current, possible sag or swell in the supply voltage, and non-unity power factor of the supply side. Kalman filters are used to extract the fundamental as well as the harmonic components abovementioned, which will then be used to formulate the desired references and regarded as measurable disturbances, respectively. Based on a state-space model developed for the UPQC, an MPC controller is designed. Simulation studies on a single-phase power distribution system are also presented to verify the performance.","PeriodicalId":176828,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE International Conference on Control Applications","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128887026","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this paper is to address this problem by proposing a new control strategy based on the modeling of moulds into two subparts: cup and lower part. This decomposition makes it possible to identify the mould lower part dynamics -called \"absorption capacity\". This identification is then used to design an anticipative control strategy for the mould filling. With regard to other control techniques, the new developed approach makes the reduction of the number of parameters to be adjusted possible and thus improves control performances. The feasibility of the proposed methodology is experimentally validated with a real-time implementation.","PeriodicalId":176828,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE International Conference on Control Applications","volume":"172 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114306355","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
