However, the control accuracy of ASTF is significantly affected by the flow disturbance caused by aero-engine acceleration and deceleration. This would reduce the credibility of ASTF’s test results for the aero-engine. Therefore, first, this paper proposes a feedforward compensation-based L1 adaptive control method for ASTF to address this problem. The baseline controller is first designed based on ideal uncoupled closed-loop dynamics to achieve dynamic decoupling. Then, L1 adaptive control is adopted to deal with various uncertainties and ensure good control performance. To further enhance the anti-disturbance performance, a feedforward strategy based on disturbance prediction is designed in the L1 adaptive control framework to compensate for the unmatched flow disturbance, which cannot be measured directly. In addition, this strategy takes into account the effects of actuator dynamics. With this method, the feedforward term can be determined from the nominal model parameters despite uncertainties. Finally, to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, various comparative experiments are performed on a hardware-in-the-loop system of ASTF. The experimental results show that the proposed method possesses excellent tracking performance, anti-disturbance performance and robustness.展开更多

文摘Modern power systems increasingly depend on interconnected microgrids to enhance reliability and renewable energy utilization.However,the high penetration of intermittent renewable sources often causes frequency deviations,voltage fluctuations,and poor reactive power coordination,posing serious challenges to grid stability.Conventional Interconnection FlowControllers(IFCs)primarily regulate active power flowand fail to effectively handle dynamic frequency variations or reactive power sharing in multi-microgrid networks.To overcome these limitations,this study proposes an enhanced Interconnection Flow Controller(e-IFC)that integrates frequency response balancing and an Interconnection Reactive Power Flow Controller(IRFC)within a unified adaptive control structure.The proposed e-IFC is implemented and analyzed in DIgSILENT PowerFactory to evaluate its performance under various grid disturbances,including frequency drops,load changes,and reactive power fluctuations.Simulation results reveal that the e-IFC achieves 27.4% higher active power sharing accuracy,19.6% lower reactive power deviation,and 18.2% improved frequency stability compared to the conventional IFC.The adaptive controller ensures seamless transitions between grid-connected and islanded modes and maintains stable operation even under communication delays and data noise.Overall,the proposed e-IFCsignificantly enhances active-reactive power coordination and dynamic stability in renewable-integrated multi-microgrid systems.Future research will focus on coupling the e-IFC with tertiary-level optimization frameworks and conducting hardware-in-the-loop validation to enable its application in large-scale smart microgrid environments.

文摘To address the finite-time tracking control problem for fractional-order nonlinear systems(FONSs) with actuator faults and external disturbance,a novel strategy of the finite-time adaptive fuzzy fault-tolerant controller is presented in this paper by utilizing the finite-time stability theory and fractional-order dynamic surface control scheme combined with backstepping method.A new lemma is developed for analyzing the finite-time stability of FONSs in terms of fractional differential inequality,which modifies some existing results.Fuzzy logic systems are adopted to identify unknown nonlinear characteristics in FONS.In order to compensate for the influence of unknown external disturbance and estimation error for fuzzy logic systems,an auxiliary function is employed to estimate the upper bound of parameters online.Furthermore,a global coordinate transformation is first introduced initially to decouple the fractional-order dynamic system of a specific class of underactuated single-link flexible manipulator systems,thereby transforming it into lower triangular systems.Simulation analyses and experimental results verify the feasibility and effectiveness of finite-time tracking control algorithm.

文摘Wireless communication-enabled Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control(CACC)is expected to improve the safety and traffic capacity of vehicle platoons.Existing CACC considers a conventional communication delay with fixed Vehicular Communication Network(VCN)topologies.However,when the network is under attack,the communication delay may be much higher,and the stability of the system may not be guaranteed.This paper proposes a novel communication Delay Aware CACC with Dynamic Network Topologies(DADNT).The main idea is that for various communication delays,in order to maximize the traffic capacity while guaranteeing stability and minimizing the following error,the CACC should dynamically adjust the VCN network topology to achieve the minimum inter-vehicle spacing.To this end,a multi-objective optimization problem is formulated,and a 3-step Divide-And-Conquer sub-optimal solution(3DAC)is proposed.Simulation results show that with 3DAC,the proposed DADNT with CACC can reduce the inter-vehicle spacing by 5%,10%,and 14%,respectively,compared with the traditional CACC with fixed one-vehicle,two-vehicle,and three-vehicle look-ahead network topologies,thereby improving the traffic efficiency.

文摘The stability of supersonic inlets faces challenges due to various changes in flight conditions,and flow control methods that address shock wave/boundary layer interactions under only one set of conditions cannot meet developmental requirements.This paper proposes an adaptive bump control scheme and employs dynamic mesh technology for numerical simulation to investigate the unsteady control effects of adaptive bumps.The obtained results indicate that the use of moving bumps to control shock wave/boundary layer interactions is feasible.The adaptive control effects of five different bump speeds are evaluated.Within the range of bump speeds studied,the analysis of the flow field structure reveals the patterns of change in the separation zone area during the control process,as well as the relationship between the bump motion speed and the control effect on the separation zone.It is concluded that the moving bump endows the boundary layer with additional energy.
文摘This paper explores the issue of secure synchronization control in piecewise-homogeneous Markovian jump delay neural networks affected by denial-of-service(DoS)attacks.Initially,a novel memory-based adaptive event-triggered mechanism(MBAETM)is designed based on sequential growth rates,focusing on event-triggered conditions and thresholds.Subsequently,from the perspective of defenders,non-periodic DoS attacks are re-characterized,and a model of irregular DoS attacks with cyclic fluctuations within time series is further introduced to enhance the system's defense capabilities more effectively.Additionally,considering the unified demands of network security and communication efficiency,a resilient memory-based adaptive event-triggered mechanism(RMBAETM)is proposed.A unified Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is then constructed,incorporating a loop functional to thoroughly consider information at trigger moments.The master-slave system achieves synchronization through the application of linear matrix inequality techniques.Finally,the proposed methods'effectiveness and superiority are confirmed through four numerical simulation examples.
文摘Dear Editor,It is well known that event-triggered control(ETC)is an effective approach in addressing networked control problems for Industry 5.0.Its feasibility,however,is still restricted to canonical nonlinear systems so far.Considering this,a gradient-based adaptive ETC scheme for noncanonical nonlinear systems is newly developed in this letter,where the hysteresis input constraints are considered also.By proper decomposition,the technical issue of handling ETC-induced measurement errors and hysteresis inputs can be transformed into the robustness problem to bounded disturbance-like terms,which is then addressed by integrating a switching modification strategy in adaptive design and developing a novel augmented error-based analysis framework.Experimental results based on a practical piezoactuator confirm the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

文摘This article presents an adaptive optimal control method for a semi-active suspension system.The model of the suspension system is built,in which the components of uncertain parameters and exogenous disturbance are described.The adaptive optimal control law consists of the sum of the optimal control component and the adaptive control component.First,the optimal control law is designed for the model of the suspension system after ignoring the components of uncertain parameters and exogenous disturbance caused by the road surface.The optimal control law expresses the desired dynamic characteristics of the suspension system.Next,the adaptive component is designed with the purpose of compensating for the effects caused by uncertain parameters and exogenous disturbance caused by the road surface;the adaptive component has adaptive parameter rules to estimate uncertain parameters and exogenous disturbance.When exogenous disturbances are eliminated,the system responds with an optimal controller designed.By separating theoretically the dynamic of a semi-active suspension system,this solution allows the design of two separate controllers easily and has reduced the computational burden and the use of too many tools,thus allowing for more convenient hardware implementation.The simulation results also show the effectiveness of damping oscillations of the proposed solution in this article.

文摘Aeropropulsion System Test Facility (ASTF) is required to accurately control the pressure and temperature of the airflow to test the performance of the aero-engine. However, the control accuracy of ASTF is significantly affected by the flow disturbance caused by aero-engine acceleration and deceleration. This would reduce the credibility of ASTF’s test results for the aero-engine. Therefore, first, this paper proposes a feedforward compensation-based L1 adaptive control method for ASTF to address this problem. The baseline controller is first designed based on ideal uncoupled closed-loop dynamics to achieve dynamic decoupling. Then, L1 adaptive control is adopted to deal with various uncertainties and ensure good control performance. To further enhance the anti-disturbance performance, a feedforward strategy based on disturbance prediction is designed in the L1 adaptive control framework to compensate for the unmatched flow disturbance, which cannot be measured directly. In addition, this strategy takes into account the effects of actuator dynamics. With this method, the feedforward term can be determined from the nominal model parameters despite uncertainties. Finally, to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, various comparative experiments are performed on a hardware-in-the-loop system of ASTF. The experimental results show that the proposed method possesses excellent tracking performance, anti-disturbance performance and robustness.

文摘A cable-driven redundant manipulator(CDRM)characterized by redundant degrees of freedom and a lightweight,slender design can perform tasks in confined and restricted spaces efficiently.However,the complex multistage coupling between drive cables and passive joints in CDRM leads to a challenging dynamic model with difficult parameter identification,complicating the efforts to achieve accurate modeling and control.To address these challenges,this paper proposes a dynamic modeling and adaptive control approach tailored for CDRM systems.A multilevel kinematic model of the cable-driven redundant manipulator is presented,and a screw theory is employed to represent the cable tension and cable contact forces as spatial wrenches,which are equivalently mapped to joint torque using the principle of virtual work.This approach simplifies the mapping process while maintaining the integrity of the dynamic model.A recursive method is used to compute cable tension section-by-section for enhancing the efficiency of inverse dynamics calculations and meeting the high-frequency demands of the controller,thereby avoiding large matrix operations.An adaptive control method is proposed building on this foundation,which involves the design of a dynamic parameter adaptive controller in the joint space to simplify the linearization process of the dynamic equations along with a closed-loop controller that incorporates motor parameters in the driving space.This approach improves the control accuracy and dynamic performance of the CDRM under dynamic uncertainties.The accuracy and computational efficiency of the dynamic model are validated through simulations,and the effectiveness of the proposed control method is demonstrated through control tests.This paper presents a dynamic modeling and adaptive control approach for CDRM to enhance accuracy and performance under dynamic uncertainties.

文摘This paper deeply introduces a brand-new research method for the synchronous characteristics of DC microgrid bus voltage and an improved synchronous control strategy.This method mainly targets the problem of bus voltage oscillation caused by the bifurcation behavior of DC microgrid converters.Firstly,the article elaborately establishes a mathematical model of a single distributed power source with hierarchical control.On this basis,a smallworld network model that can better adapt to the topology structure of DC microgrids is further constructed.Then,a voltage synchronization analysis method based on the main stability function is proposed,and the synchronous characteristics of DC bus voltage are deeply studied by analyzing the size of the minimum non-zero eigenvalue.In view of the situation that the line coupling strength between distributed power sources is insufficient to achieve bus voltage synchronization,this paper innovatively proposes a new improved adaptive controller to effectively control voltage synchronization.And the convergence of the designed controller is strictly proved by using Lyapunov’s stability theorem.Finally,the effectiveness and feasibility of the designed controller in this paper are fully verified through detailed simulation experiments.After comparative analysis with the traditional adaptive controller,it is found that the newly designed controller can make the bus voltages of each distributed power source achieve synchronization more quickly,and is significantly superior to the traditional adaptive controller in terms of anti-interference performance.
