The proposed method combines control barrier functions and control Lyapunov functions with a nonlinear extended state observer to produce a robust and safe control strategy for dynamic systems subject to uncertainties and disturbances. This control strategy employs an optimization-based control, supported by the disturbance estimation from a nonlinear extended state observer. Using a quadratic programming algorithm, the controller computes an optimal, stable, and safe control action at each sampling instant. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated through numerical simulations of a safety-critical interconnected adaptive cruise control system.展开更多

文摘The output feedback active disturbance rejection control of a valve-controlled cylinder electro-hydraulic servo system is investigated in this paper.First,a comprehensive nonlinear mathematical model that encompasses both matched and mismatched disturbances is formulated.Due to the fact that only position information can be measured,a linear Extended State Observer(ESO)is introduced to estimate unknown states and matched disturbances,while a dedicated disturbance observer is constructed to estimate mismatched disturbances.Different from the traditional observer results,the design of the disturbance observer used in this study is carried out under the constraint of output feedback.Furthermore,an output feedback nonlinear controller is proposed leveraging the aforementioned observers to achieve accurate trajectory tracking.To mitigate the inherent differential explosion problem of the traditional backstepping framework,a finite-time stable command filter is incorporated.Simultaneously,considering transient filtering errors,a set of error compensation signals are designed to counter their negative impact effectively.Theoretical analysis affirms that the proposed control strategy ensures the boundedness of all signals within the closed-loop system.Additionally,under the specific condition of only time-invariant disturbances in the system,the conclusion of asymptotic stability is established.Finally,the algorithm’s efficacy is validated through comparative experiments.

文摘The conventional feedforward hybrid active noise control(FFHANC)system combines the advantages of the feedforward narrowband active noise control(FFNANC)system and the feedforward broadband active noise control(FFBANC)system.To enhance its adaptive adjustment capability under frequency mismatch(FM)conditions,this paper introduces a narrowband frequency adaptive estimation module into the conventional FFHANC system.This module integrates an autoregressive(AR)model and a linear cascaded adaptive notch filter(LCANF),enabling accurate reference signal frequency estimation even under significant FM.Furthermore,in order to improve the coherence between narrowband and broadband components in the system’s error signal and its corresponding control filter for the conventional FFHANC system,this paper proposes an algorithm based on autoregressive bandpass filter bank(AR-BPFB)for error separation.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed FFHANC system maintains robust performance under high FM conditions and effectively suppresses hybrid-band noise.The AR-BPFB algorithm significantly elevates the convergence speed of the FFHANC system.

文摘This paper investigates the active traveling wave vibration control of an elastic supported rotating porous aluminium conical shell(CS)under impact loading.Piezoelectric smart materials in the form of micro fiber composites(MFCs)are used as actuators and sensors.To this end,a metal pore truncated CS with MFCs attached to its surface is considered.Adding artificial virtual springs at two edges of the truncated CS achieves various elastic supported boundaries by changing the spring stiffness.Based on the first-order shear deformation theory(FSDT),minimum energy principle,and artificial virtual spring technology,the theoretical formulations considering the electromechanical coupling are derived.The comparison of the natural frequency of the present results with the natural frequencies reported in previous literature evaluates the accuracy of the present approach.To study the vibration control,the integral quadrature method in conjunction with the differential quadrature approximation in the length direction is used to discretize the partial differential dynamical system to form a set of ordinary differential equations.With the aid of the velocity negative feedback method,both the time history and the input control voltage on the actuator are demonstrated to present the effects of velocity feedback gain,pore distribution type,semi-vertex angle,impact loading,and rotational angular velocity on the traveling wave vibration control.

文摘A theoretical analysis regarding active vibration control of rotating machines with current-controlled electrodynamic actuators between machine feet and steel frame foundation and with velocity feedback of the machine feet vibrations is presented.First,a generalized mathematical formulation is derived based on a state-space description which can be used for different kinds of models(1D,2D,and 3D models).It is shown that under special boundary conditions,the control parameters can be directly implemented into the stiffness and damping matrices of the system.Based on the generalized mathematical formulation,an example of a rotating machine—described by a 2D model—with journal bearings,flexible rotor,current-controlled electrodynamic actuators,steel frame foundation,and velocity feedback of the machine feet vibrations is presented where the effectiveness of the described active vibration control system is demonstrated.
文摘The study of Mecanum mobile robots typically assumes motion on planar surfaces,while the challenges posed by inclined terrains remain largely unexplored,leaving a significant gap in control applications for such scenarios.In this context,two critical issues emerge:the gravitational pull caused by adding a potential energy term in the robot dynamics,which drives the vehicle downhill,and several positioning errors due to vibrations and slippage of the Mecanum wheel.To address these challenges,this work presents an Active Disturbance Rejection Control(ADRC)-based framework designed to enable accurate tracking on inclined surfaces,despite the compounded effects of gravitational forces and slippage.Unlike conventional controllers,the proposed method requires minimal model knowledge while actively compensates for unknown dynamics and external disturbances in real time.A complete theoretical formulation is provided,supported by numerical simulations and comprehensive experimental validation.Results demonstrate that the ADRC structure significantly outperforms not only the traditional proportional-integral-derivative(PID)control but also a robust variant of PID combined with a Quasi-Sliding Mode control(PID-QSMC)strategy,achieving superior tracking.Notably,this study offers an important experimental validation of ADRC for Mecanum-wheeled robots operating on inclined surfaces.It contributes a practical and scalable solution to extend their operational capabilities beyond flat environments.

文摘The objective of this paper is to present a robust safety-critical control system based on the active disturbance rejection control approach, designed to guarantee safety even in the presence of model inaccuracies, unknown dynamics, and external disturbances. The proposed method combines control barrier functions and control Lyapunov functions with a nonlinear extended state observer to produce a robust and safe control strategy for dynamic systems subject to uncertainties and disturbances. This control strategy employs an optimization-based control, supported by the disturbance estimation from a nonlinear extended state observer. Using a quadratic programming algorithm, the controller computes an optimal, stable, and safe control action at each sampling instant. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated through numerical simulations of a safety-critical interconnected adaptive cruise control system.

文摘With the growing adoption of artificial intelligence algorithms and neural networks,online learning and adaptive methods for updating the bandwidth have become increasingly prevalent.However,the conditions required to ensure closed-loop stability when employing a time-varying bandwidth,as well as the supporting mathematical foundations,remain insufficiently studied.This paper investigates the stability condition for active disturbance rejection control(ADRC)with a time-varying bandwidth extended state observer(ESO).A new stability condition is derived,which means that the upper bound of rate of change for ESO bandwidth should be restricted.Moreover,under the proposed condition,the closed-loop stability of ADRC with a time-varying bandwidth observer is rigorously proved for nonlinear uncertainties.In simulations,the necessity of the proposed condition is illustrated,demonstrating that the rate of change of ESO bandwidth is crucial for closed-loop stability.
