Among the DTC architecture, model-based thrust estimation method has less arithmetic consumption and better real-time performance. In this paper,a direct thrust controller design approach for gas turbine engine based on parameter dependent model is proposed. In order to ensure the stability of DTC control system based on parameter dependent model, there are usually conservatism detects. For the purpose of reducing the conservatism in the solution process of filter and controller, an Equilibrium Manifold Expansion(EME) model with bounded parameter variation of engine is established. The design conditions of Kalman filter for discrete-time EME system are introduced, and the proposed conditions have a certain suppression effect on the input noise of the system with bounded parameter variation.The engine thrust estimator stability and H∞filtering problems are solved by the polytopic quadratic Lyapunov function based on the Linear Matrix Inequalities(LMIs). To meet the performance requirements of thrust control, the Grey Wolf Optimization(GWO) algorithm is applied to optimize the PID control parameters. The proposed method is verified on a Hardware-in-Loop(HIL) platform. The simulation results demonstrate that the DTC framework can ensure the stability of engine closed-loop system in large range deviation tests. The filter and controller solution method considering the parameter variation boundary can obtain a solution that makes the system have better performance parameters. Moreover, the proposed filter has better thrust estimation performance than the traditional Kalman filter under the condition of sensor noise.

文摘To achieve the manufacturing of Thin-Wall and High-Rib Components(TWHRC)with high precision,a novel heavy load Multi-DOF Envelope Forming Press(MEFP)with Parallel Kinematic Mechanism(PKM),driven by six Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors(PMSMs),is developed.However,on account of the heavy forming load,the PMSM parameters are in great variation.Meanwhile,the PMSM is always in a transient state caused by fast time-varying forming load,resulting in low identification precision of varied PMSM parameters and control precision of PMSM under traditional parameter identification methods.To solve this problem,a novel Sliding Mode Control Method with Enhanced PMSM Parameter Identification(SMCMEPPI)for heavy load MEFP is proposed.Firstly,the kinematic model of MEFP is established.Secondly,the variation law of PMSM parameters under heavy load is revealed.Thirdly,an enhanced PMSM parameter identification method is proposed,in which the q axis current of PMSM is used to represent the changing rate of forming load and the adjustment factor is first proposed to remove improper input of PMSM parameter identification online.Fourthly,the Electromechanical Coupling Dynamic Model(ECDM)of MEFP,which includes identified PMSM parameters,is developed.Finally,based on the developed ECDM,a novel SMCMEPPI is proposed to realize the high-precision control of heavy load MEFP.The experimental results indicate that the proposed SMCMEPPI can significantly improve the control precision of heavy load MEFP.

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Steady speed control of agricultural machinery can improve operating quality and efficiency.To address the impact of farmland slope variations on the speed stability of unmanned operation agricultural machinery,a hybrid control method was proposed.This method included a hybrid controller composed of a slope-based controller and a proportional-integral-derivative(PID)controller.The speed of agricultural machinery was influenced by longitudinal forces,which were divided into two parts:one part was slope-related forces and conventional resistance,and the other was hard-to-estimate forces,such as sliding friction.For the first part,a slope-based controller was designed;for the second part,a PID controller was implemented.By combining these two controllers,the system can dynamically adjust the throttle opening and the brake master cylinder pressure,ensuring steady speed travel on sloping farmland.Simulation tests at a target speed of 7 km/h demonstrated that the proposed controller maintained a stable speed,achieving a root mean square error of 0.13 km/h and a mean absolute percentage error of 1.6%.Field tests on a practical experimental platform validated the method’s effectiveness,with results showing consistent control performance across varying slope conditions.The proposed controller demonstrated superior control performance.Experimental data verified that this method can achieve precise control of the agricultural machinery’s movement speed,meeting the stability requirements for agricultural operations.
文摘This study investigates prescribed-time position tracking control for electromagnetic satellite formations subject to model uncertainties and external disturbances.Using the Clohessy-Wiltshire equations as the relative motion dynamics model,a prescribed time output feedback control strategy is proposed.A prescribed-time extended state observer is designed to estimate the relative velocity and external disturbances.The disturbance estimates are then used as the feedforward component of the controller.Building on this framework,a novel prescribed-time active disturbance rejection control strategy for position tracking is developed via a backstepping control design.The convergence of the extended state observer and the stability of the closed-loop system are rigorously analyzed using Lyapunov stability theory.Numerical simulations are performed to validate the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

文摘To investigate the influence of different longitudinal constraint systems on the longitudinal displacement at the girder ends of a three-tower suspension bridge,this study takes the Cangrong Xunjiang Bridge as an engineering case for finite element analysis.This bridge employs an unprecedented tower-girder constraintmethod,with all vertical supports placed at the transition piers at both ends.This paper aims to study the characteristics of longitudinal displacement control at the girder ends under this novel structure,relying on finite element(FE)analysis.Initially,based on the Weigh In Motion(WIM)data,a random vehicle load model is generated and applied to the finite elementmodel.Several longitudinal constraint systems are proposed,and their effects on the structural response of the bridge are compared.The most reasonable system,balancing girder-end displacement and transitional pier stress,is selected.Subsequently,the study examines the impact of different viscous damper parameters on key structural response indicators,including cumulative longitudinal displacement at the girder ends,maximum longitudinal displacement at the girder ends,cumulative longitudinal displacement at the pier tops,maximum longitudinal displacement at the pier tops,longitudinal acceleration at the pier tops,and maximum bending moment at the pier bottoms.Finally,the coefficient of variation(CV)-TOPSIS method is used to optimize the viscous damper parameters for multiple objectives.The results show that adding viscous dampers at the side towers,in addition to the existing longitudinal limit bearings at the central tower,can most effectively reduce the response of structural indicators.The changes in these indicators are not entirely consistent with variations in damping coefficient and velocity exponent.The damper parameters significantly influence cumulative longitudinal displacement at the girder ends,cumulative longitudinal displacement at the pier tops,and maximum bending moments at the pier bottoms.The optimal damper parameters are found to be a damping coefficient of 5000 kN/(m/s)0.2 and a velocity exponent of 0.2.

文摘Aquila Optimizer(AO)is a recently proposed population-based optimization technique inspired by Aquila’s behavior in catching prey.AO is applied in various applications and its numerous variants were proposed in the literature.However,chaos theory has not been extensively investigated in AO.Moreover,it is still not applied in the parameter estimation of electro-hydraulic systems.In this work,ten well-defined chaotic maps were integrated into a narrowed exploitation of AO for the development of a robust chaotic optimization technique.An extensive investigation of twenty-three mathematical benchmarks and ten IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation(CEC)functions shows that chaotic Aquila optimization techniques perform better than the baseline technique.The investigation is further conducted on parameter estimation of an electro-hydraulic control system,which is performed on various noise levels and shows that the proposed chaotic AO with Piecewise map(CAO6)achieves the best fitness values of and at noise levels and respectively.Friedman test 2.873E-05,1.014E-04,8.728E-031.300E-03,1.300E-02,1.300E-01,for repeated measures,computational analysis,and Taguchi test reflect the superiority of CAO6 against the state of the arts,demonstrating its potential for addressing various engineering optimization problems.However,the sensitivity to parameter tuning may limit its direct application to complex optimization scenarios.

文摘Purpose-The indoor vibration compaction test(IVCT)was a key step in controlling the compaction quality for high-speed railway graded aggregate(HRGA),which currently had a research gap on the assessment indicators and compaction parameters.Design/methodology/approach-To address these issues,a novel multi-indicator IVCT method was proposed,including physical indicator dry density(ρd)and mechanical indicators dynamic stiffness(Krb)and bearing capacity coefficient(K20).Then,a series of IVCTs on HRGA under different compaction parameters were conducted with an improved vibration compactor,which could monitor the physical-mechanical indicators in real-time.Finally,the optimal vibration compaction parameters,including the moisture content(ω),the diameter-to-maximum particle size ratio(Rd),the thickness-to-maximum particle size ratio(Rh),the vibration frequency(f),the vibration mass(Mc)and the eccentric distance(re),were determined based on the evolution characteristics for the physical-mechanical indicators during compaction.Findings-All results indicated that theρd gradually increased and then stabilized,and the Krb initially increased and then decreased.Moreover,the inflection time of the Krb was present as the optimal compaction time(Tlp)during compaction.Additionally,optimal compaction was achieved whenωwas the water-holding content after mud pumping,Rd was 3.4,Rh was 3.5,f was the resonance frequency,and the ratio between the excitation force and the Mc was 1.8.Originality/value-The findings of this paper were significant for the quality control of HRGA compaction.

文摘This paper studies motor joint control of a 4-degree-of-freedom(DoF)robotic manipulator using learning-based Adaptive Dynamic Programming(ADP)approach.The manipulator’s dynamics are modelled as an open-loop 4-link serial kinematic chain with 4 Degrees of Freedom(DoF).Decentralised optimal controllers are designed for each link using ADP approach based on a set of cost matrices and data collected from exploration trajectories.The proposed control strategy employs an off-line,off-policy iterative approach to derive four optimal control policies,one for each joint,under exploration strategies.The objective of the controller is to control the position of each joint.Simulation and experimental results show that four independent optimal controllers are found,each under similar exploration strategies,and the proposed ADP approach successfully yields optimal linear control policies despite the presence of these complexities.The experimental results conducted on the Quanser Qarm robotic platform demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed ADP controllers in handling significant dynamic nonlinearities,such as actuation limitations,output saturation,and filter delays.

文摘This article investigates the robust current tracking control problem of three-phase grid-connected inverters with LCL filter under external disturbance by a dynamic state feedback control method.First,this paper constructs an internal model to learn the information of the states and input of the grid-connected inverter under steady state.Second,by utilizing the internal model principle,the paper turns the tracking control problem into the robust stabilization control problem based on some appropriate coordinate transformations.Then,The paper designs a dynamics state feedback control law to deal with this robust stabilization problem,and thus the solution of the robust current tracking control problem of three-phase grid-connected inverters can be obtained.This control method can ensure the asymptotic stability of the closedloop system.Finally,the paper illustrates the effectiveness of the proposed control approach through several groups of simulations,and compares it with the feedforward control method to verify the robustness of the proposed control method to uncertain parameters.
文摘Aiming to solve the steering instability and hysteresis of agricultural robots in the process of movement,a fusion PID control method of particle swarm optimization(PSO)and genetic algorithm(GA)was proposed.The fusion algorithm took advantage of the fast optimization ability of PSO to optimize the population screening link of GA.The Simulink simulation results showed that the convergence of the fitness function of the fusion algorithm was accelerated,the system response adjustment time was reduced,and the overshoot was almost zero.Then the algorithm was applied to the steering test of agricultural robot in various scenes.After modeling the steering system of agricultural robot,the steering test results in the unloaded suspended state showed that the PID control based on fusion algorithm reduced the rise time,response adjustment time and overshoot of the system,and improved the response speed and stability of the system,compared with the artificial trial and error PID control and the PID control based on GA.The actual road steering test results showed that the PID control response rise time based on the fusion algorithm was the shortest,about 4.43 s.When the target pulse number was set to 100,the actual mean value in the steady-state regulation stage was about 102.9,which was the closest to the target value among the three control methods,and the overshoot was reduced at the same time.The steering test results under various scene states showed that the PID control based on the proposed fusion algorithm had good anti-interference ability,it can adapt to the changes of environment and load and improve the performance of the control system.It was effective in the steering control of agricultural robot.This method can provide a reference for the precise steering control of other robots.

文摘In high-renewable-energy power systems,the demand for fast-responding capabilities is growing.To address the limitations of conventional closed-loop frequency control,where the integral coefficient cannot dynamically adjust the frequency regulation command based on the state of charge(SoC)of energy storage units,this paper proposes a secondary frequency regulation control strategy based on variable integral coefficients for multiple energy storage units.First,a power-uniform controller is designed to ensure that thermal power units gradually take on more regulation power during the frequency regulation process.Next,a control framework based on variable integral coefficients is proposed within the secondary frequency regulation model,along with an objective function that simultaneously considers both Automatic Generation Control(AGC)command tracking performance and SoC recovery requirements of energy storage units.Finally,a gradient descent optimization method is used to dynamically adjust the gain of the energy storage integral controller,allowingmultiple energy storage units to respond in real-time to AGC instructions and SoC variations.Simulation results confirmthe effectiveness of the proposedmethod.Compared to traditional strategies,the proposed approach takes into account the SoCdiscrepancies amongmultiple energy storage units and the duration of system net power imbalances.It successfully implements secondary frequency regulation while achieving dynamic power allocation among the units.

文摘As an important resource in data link,time slots should be strategically allocated to enhance transmission efficiency and resist eavesdropping,especially considering the tremendous increase in the number of nodes and diverse communication needs.It is crucial to design control sequences with robust randomness and conflict-freeness to properly address differentiated access control in data link.In this paper,we propose a hierarchical access control scheme based on control sequences to achieve high utilization of time slots and differentiated access control.A theoretical bound of the hierarchical control sequence set is derived to characterize the constraints on the parameters of the sequence set.Moreover,two classes of optimal hierarchical control sequence sets satisfying the theoretical bound are constructed,both of which enable the scheme to achieve maximum utilization of time slots.Compared with the fixed time slot allocation scheme,our scheme reduces the symbol error rate by up to 9%,which indicates a significant improvement in anti-interference and eavesdropping capabilities.
文摘Under sensorless control, the position estimation error in interior permanent magnet(PM) synchronous machines will lead to parameter identification errors and a rank-deficiency issue. This paper proposes a parameter identification model that is independent of position error by combining the dq-axis voltage equations. Then, a novel dual signal alternate injection method is proposed to address the rank-deficiency issue, i.e., during one injection period, a zero, positive, and negative d-axis current injection together with a rotor position offset injection, to simultaneously identify the multi-parameters, including stator resistance, dq-axis inductances, and PM flux linkage. The proposed method is verified by experiments at different dq-axis current conditions.
