This model can be used to calculate off-line some particular trajectories or to design some model based control schemes. The presented results are well suited for applications where the robot has to repeatedly perform certain tasks, e.g. in assembly operations with very high precision requirements. A nonlinear reference model and a simple regulator with variable structure control is used. The advantages of using a nonlinear reference model are twofold.","PeriodicalId":290911,"journal":{"name":"IEE control engineering series","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131499464","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 installation consists of four 21,000-tonne LNG storage tanks, two liquefaction plants and a vaporisation/export system. LNG is stored at a temperature of -160°C and a pressure of 100 mbar, and for export into the National Transmission System the gas temperature must be raised to ambient and the pressure to grid conditions, i.e. between 40 and 70 bar.","PeriodicalId":290911,"journal":{"name":"IEE control engineering series","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127805889","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 use of general purpose microprocessors in direct digital control is very beneficial, so adopted in many wide and varied applications. These early microprocessors were rather primitive; they were 8-bit machines working with clock rates of the order of 1 MHz and possessed little software support usually the programming had to be performed in the assembly language. The situation is somewhat better now. The capabilities of electronic chip manufacturers have evolved to the stage where very large scale integration (VLSI) is possible and 32-bit microprocessors working at 25 MHz are commonly available; such modern microprocessors are powerful computing devices, which are able to perform many millions of instructions every second. In addition, they can also have on-chip floating-point support and are able to be programmed in standard high-level languages.","PeriodicalId":290911,"journal":{"name":"IEE control engineering series","volume":"159 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133447866","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}

However, mathematical models of a wide range of processes in modern technology are partial differential equations, integro-differential equations and equations with delays. Attempts at theoretical generalisations and applications of sliding modes to control of infinite-dimensional plants show that control scientists and engineers are faced the challenge of increased complexity. Practically all the concepts of discontinuous control theory should be completely revised. Even the basic concepts discontinuity surface, sliding mode, component-wise design should be clarified or reintroduced.

The neurons act as nonlinear processing elements within the network. An attractive property of artificial neural networks is that given the appropriate network topology, they are capable of characterising nonlinear functional relationships. Furthermore, the structure of the resulting neural network based process model may be considered generic, in the sense that little prior process knowledge is required in its determination. The methodology therefore provides a cost efficient and reliable process modelling technique.","PeriodicalId":290911,"journal":{"name":"IEE control engineering series","volume":"726 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116132632","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}

Control is restricted to single-input, single-output systems. The aim of this chapter is to introduce the state space or modern approach to design. Although single-input, single-output systems will mainly be considered, modern control design can readily be extended to cover systems with several inputs and outputs. The design of state feedback controllers is presented after a brief introduction to state space models including the key ideas of controllability and observability. The selection of feedback gains in order to achieve a desired set of closed-loop poles will be familiar to engineers versed with classical design methods. The implementation of state feedback control laws assumes that all the state variables are known. In practice, the state vector is estimated from the measurements or plant outputs using an observer. Observer design is therefore treated next prior to an analysis of the complete control-estimator system.","PeriodicalId":290911,"journal":{"name":"IEE control engineering series","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123614092","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}
