With this method, the strong ground motion is considered as three direction stationary filtered white noise process, the theoretic solutions of three special integration equations are derived with the residue theorem, and the expression of response nodal displacements and member forces of offshore platform excited by the stationary filtered white noise is put forward. The stochastic response of a piled offshore platform excited by the stationary filtered white noise, which is located 114.3 m in water depth, is computed. The results are compared with those obtained with the response spectrum analysis method and the stationary white noise model analysis method, and the corresponding conclusion is drawn.展开更多

This paper discusses the development of an optimal state estimator for sensing inertial velocity using low-cost micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) sensors. A low-bandwidth gyroscope is used alone with two low-performance accelerometers to obtain the estimation. The gyroscope has its own limited dynamics and mainly contributes to the low-frequency components of the estimation. The accelerometers have inherent biases and mainly contribute to the high-frequency components of the estimation. Extensive experimental results show that the state estimator can achieve high-performance signals over a wide range of velocities without drifts in both the t- and s-domains. Furthermore, with applications in miniature inertially stabilized platforms, the control characteristic presents a significantly improvement over the existing methods. The method can be also applied to robotics, attitude estimation, and friction compensation.展开更多

The control approach for motion control of the platform is presented using a modern control technique, namely, linear quadratic Gaussinn (LQG) with reference tracking. The LQG controller is the combination of a Kalman filter, i.e., a linear-quadratic estimator (LQE) with a linear-quadratic regulator (LQR). The robustness of the control scheme is accessed under various load conditions, and the experimental results are shown.展开更多

This control aims to stabilize and hold small objects on the platform. We parsed the step response in X and Y axes, hence we found the first and second-order models for each one. We did some further analyses to decide which one would better represent the behavior of the system. The MATLAB software provided step response for the model empirically obtained and latter compared it to experimental data acquired in the trials. Accelerometers and gyro sensors from the MPU-6050 sensor measured the angular position of platform on X and Y axes. In order to improve measurements accuracy and eliminate noise effects, we implemented the complementary filter to the firmware system. We used Arduino to control servomotors through PWM pulses and perform data acquisition.展开更多
