This paper proposes a coordinated control strategy for joint servo and visual servo to enable timely transfer and accurate gripping in the working area. Aiming at the issues of chattering and slow convergence of traditional sliding mode controller, a fast variable power reaching rate on the basis of the non-singular fast terminal sliding mode controller is proposed, which can effectively reduce the convergence time and chattering. For the purpose of addressing the problem that the traditional visual servo control method is sensitive to the environment, a visual servo controller based on integral sliding mode is proposed, to ensure the favorable positioning accuracy of the manipulator. Based on the two proposed controllers mentioned above, a coordinated control strategy is used to implement the control of the manipulator. Finally, the upper computer software is developed using the C# programming language to monitor the workstation. The feasibility of the above-mentioned method is verified through multiple simulations and experiments.展开更多

However, during the positioning of workpieces, the force exerted on each flexible support point is not uniform, and there exists force coupling between the support units. In response to the force coupling problem in the multi-point array positioning support process, a coordinated control method for the support force of multi-point array positioning combining correlation coefficient and regression analysis was proposed in this paper. The Spearman correlation coefficient was adopted in this method to study the force coupling correlation between positioning points, and a mathematical model of force coupling was established between positioning units through regression analysis, which can quickly and accurately perform coordinated control of the multilateration support system, and effectively improve the force interference of the multi-point array positioning support scene.展开更多

Among the tasks performed by a hydraulic excavator, repeatable level digging or flat surface finishing may take a large percentage. Using automated functions to perform such repeatable and tedious jobs will not only greatly increase the overall productivity but more importantly also improve the operation safety. For the purpose of investigating the technology without loss of generality, this research is conducted to create a coordinate control method for the boom, arm and bucket cylinders on a hydraulic excavator to perform accurate and effective works. On the basis of the kinematic analysis of the excavator linkage system, the tip trajectory of the end-effector can be determined in terms of three hydraulic cylinders coordinated motion with a visualized method. The coordination of those hydraulic cylinders is realized by controlling three electro-hydraulic proportional valves coordinately. Therefore, the complex control algorithm of a hydraulic excavator can be simplified into coordinated motion control of three individual systems. This coordinate control algorithm was validated on a wheeled hydraulic excavator, and the validation results indicated that this developed control method could satisfactorily accomplish the auto-digging function for level digging or flat surface finishing.展开更多

The distributed followers are required to track and synchronize with the leader spacecraft.By using the feature points in the two-dimensional image space, an integrated 6-degree-of-freedom dynamic model is formulated for spacecraft relative motion. Without sophisticated threedimensional reconstruction, image features are directly utilized for the controller design. The proposed image-based controller can drive the follower spacecraft in the desired configuration with respect to the leader when the real-time captured images match their reference counterparts. To improve the precision of the formation configuration, the proposed controller employs a coordinated term to reduce the relative distance errors between followers. The uncertainties in the system dynamics are handled by integrating the adaptive technique into the controller, which increases the robustness of the SFF system. The closed-loop system stability is analyzed using the Lyapunov method and algebraic graph theory. A numerical simulation for a given SFF scenario is performed to evaluate the performance of the controller.展开更多

Unit 1 of Yuanbaoshan power plant in China. Load following operation of coal-fired boiler-turbine unit in the power plant leads to changes in operating points which result in nonlinear variations of the plant variables and parameters. For the variation of operating condition and slowly varying dynamics, an intelligent control scheme has been developed by combining fuzzy self-tuning with adaptive control and auto-tuning techniques. As there exist strong couplings between control loops of main steam pressure and power output in the unit, a new design for static decoupler aimed at decoupling for setpoints and unmeasured pulverized coal disturbance of the system at the same time is presented. Satisfactory industrial application results show that such a control system has enhanced adaptability and robustness to the complex process, and better control performance and high economic benefit have been obtained.展开更多

Therefore, the optimal welding result can only be achieved in a limited energy range. In order to improve the welding performance further, a novel hybrid welding method--pulse CO2 laser-TIG arc hybrid welding by coordinated control is proposed and investigated. The experimental results indicate that, compared with continuous wave CO2 laser-TIG hybrid welding, the absorption and defocusing of laser energy by plasma are decreased further, and at the same time, the availability ratio of laser and arc energy can be increased when a coordinated frequency is controlled. As a result, the weld appearance is also improved as well as the weld depth is deepened. Furthermore, the effect of frequency and phase of pulse laser and TIG arc on the arc images and welding characteristics is also studied. However, the novel hybrid method has great potentials in the application of industrials from views of techniques and economy.展开更多

The optimization target of the first level coordinated control is the lowest operation cost and the largest wind power utilization rate. Based on prediction of thermoelectric load and wind power, the operation economy of the system and wind power accommodation level are improved with the cooperation of electric heat storage and pumped storage in regulation capacity. The second level coordinated control stabilizes wind power real time fluctuations by cooperating electric heat storage and pumped storage in control speed. The example results of actual wind farms in Jiuquan, Gansu verifies the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed coordinated control strategy.展开更多

As there exist strong couplings between control loops of main steam pressure and power output in the unit, a new design for static decoupler aimed at decoupling for setpoints and unmeasured pulverized coal disturbance of the system at the same time is presented. Satisfactory industrial application results show that such a control system has enhanced adaptability and robustness to the complex process, and better control performance and high economic benefit have been obtained.

文摘Coordinated controller tuning of the boiler turbine unit is a challenging task due to the nonlinear and coupling characteristics of the system.In this paper,a new variant of binary particle swarm optimization （PSO） algorithm,called probability based binary PSO （PBPSO）,is presented to tune the parameters of a coordinated controller.The simulation results show that PBPSO can effectively optimize the control parameters and achieves better control performance than those based on standard discrete binary PSO,modified binary PSO,and standard continuous PSO.
文摘In continuous wave CO2 laser-TlG hybrid welding process, the laser energy is not fully utilized because of the absorption and defocusing by plasma in the arc space. Therefore, the optimal welding result can only be achieved in a limited energy range. In order to improve the welding performance further, a novel hybrid welding method--pulse CO2 laser-TIG arc hybrid welding by coordinated control is proposed and investigated. The experimental results indicate that, compared with continuous wave CO2 laser-TIG hybrid welding, the absorption and defocusing of laser energy by plasma are decreased further, and at the same time, the availability ratio of laser and arc energy can be increased when a coordinated frequency is controlled. As a result, the weld appearance is also improved as well as the weld depth is deepened. Furthermore, the effect of frequency and phase of pulse laser and TIG arc on the arc images and welding characteristics is also studied. However, the novel hybrid method has great potentials in the application of industrials from views of techniques and economy.
文摘As a good measure to tackle the challenges from energy shortages and environmental pollution,Electric Vehicles(EVs)have entered a period of rapid growth.Battery swapping station is a very important way of energy supply to EVs,and it is urgently needed to explore a coordinated control strategy to effectively smooth the load fluctuation in order to adopt the large-scale EVs.Considering bidirectional power flow between the station and power grid,this paper proposed a SFLA-based control strategy to smooth the load profile.Finally,compared simulations were performed according to the related data.Compared to particle swarm optimization(PSO)method,the presented SFLA-based strategy can effectively lower the peak-valley difference with the faster convergence rate and higher convergence precision.It is important for the swapping station that energy exchanging mode can supply energy for large-scale EVs with a smoother load profile than one-way charging mode.
文摘A coordinated controller used for multi-telerobots collaboration was presented based on the strategy of shared control. First, it can overcome the effect of time delay. And, it combines the intelligence of the master side and the slave side, which cannot only increase the efficiency and the safety of the system but also relieve the burden and requirements of the operator. The controller can also cope with the collision between two telerobots. A simulation experiment was carried out to verify the validity of the controller for two slave robots.

文摘To solve the severe problem of wind power curtailment in the winter heating period caused by ＂power determined by heat＂ operation constraint of cogeneration units, this paper analyzes thermoelectric load, wind power output distribution and fluctuation characteristics at different time scales, and finally proposes a two level coordinated control strategy based on electric heat storage and pumped storage. The optimization target of the first level coordinated control is the lowest operation cost and the largest wind power utilization rate. Based on prediction of thermoelectric load and wind power, the operation economy of the system and wind power accommodation level are improved with the cooperation of electric heat storage and pumped storage in regulation capacity. The second level coordinated control stabilizes wind power real time fluctuations by cooperating electric heat storage and pumped storage in control speed. The example results of actual wind farms in Jiuquan, Gansu verifies the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed coordinated control strategy.
