For each joint, the system parameters are estimated online using a modified recursive least squares algorithm with data normalization. A variable dead zone is incorporated into this estimation algorithm to limit the effects of interconnections and nonlinear dynamics in the system such that the number of the parameters to be estimated is reduced. The adaptive control law consisting of a pole placement PID controller and a nonlinear feedback is calculated based on current system parameter estimates. The nonlinear dynamics of the system is compensated by the adaptive nonlinear feedback. The proposed adaptive control system is shown to be globally stable and is implemented on a transputer network for motion control of a PUMA 560 robot. The simulation results and the performance of both off-line and online parameter identification are presented.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":276779,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE International Conference on Control and Applications","volume":"111 3S 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128775235","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}

To achieve good damping characteristics over a wide range of operating conditions, speed deviation and acceleration of a synchronous generator are chosen as the input signals to the fuzzy controller. The stabilizing signal is determined according to the nonlinear fuzzy membership functions depending on the speed and acceleration states of the generator. The design and digital simulation studies are carried out on a one-machine infinite bus power system. The design is implemented on a 5 kVA generator in the Power System Laboratory with an IBM-486 computer associated with A/D and D/A converter acting as the real time controller. The implementation study is carried out on both single-machine and two-machine infinite bus power systems respectively. Studies of simulation and implementation show that the proposed fuzzy controller is very effective.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":276779,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE International Conference on Control and Applications","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128027492","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 nonlinear L/sub /spl infin//-simplex minimization technique is proposed to determine a good approximated set of moles of dominant species by minimizing the maximum error of linear and nonlinear physical constraints due to equilibrium reaction. Eight dynamic parameters of the three-link class 1 robot manipulator are estimated by using the nonlinear L/sub /spl infin//-simplex optimization method with observation data obtained by simulating the robot dynamics motion due to zero applied torques on all three joints. The estimated dynamic parameters agree extremely well with the true nominal values provided the parameters are fully or at least identifiable in nature.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":276779,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE International Conference on Control and Applications","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129683129","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 rinsing process is a dynamic nonlinear process. Modelling and identification of the process is based on a priori knowledge about the process and measured data from the process. Some parts of the process wear out. In the model, the worn parts are modelled explicitly and estimated on-line by an extended Kalman filter. The process is influenced by changing production variables, which are measurable but not controllable. The process is also influenced by disturbances. The optimal controller is based on a mathematical model of the process which includes on-line estimation of unknown parameters. The model is expressed in a discrete state space form, which makes the model suitable for optimal control. The physical limits of the process consist of the limits of the control signal. The optimal control signal is achieved by minimization of a quadratic loss function.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":276779,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE International Conference on Control and Applications","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129781731","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}
