This paper presents a combined non-singular fast terminal sliding mode control method, aimed at resolving the frame control problem of roll-pitch seeker tracking high maneu-vering target. The sliding mode surface is structured around the principle of segmentation, which enables the control system’s rapid attainment of the zero point and ensure global fast conver-gence. The system’s state is more swiftly converged to the slid-ing mode surface through an improved adaptive fast dual power reaching law. Utilizing an extended state observer, the overall disturbance is both identified and compensated. The validation of the system’s stability and its convergence within a finite-time is grounded in Lyapunov’s stability criteria. The performance of the introduced control method is confirmed through roll-pitch seeker tracking control simulation. Data analysis reveals that newly proposed control technique significantly outperforms existing sliding mode control methods by rapidly converging the frame to the target angle, reduce the tracking error of the detec-tor for the target, and bolster tracking precision of the roll-pitch seeker huring disturbed conditions.展开更多

By incorporating general relativistic effects into complexity theory through a gravitational correction factor, we prove that problems can transition between complexity classes depending on the observer’s reference frame and local gravitational environment. This insight emerges from recognizing that the definition of polynomial time implicitly assumes a universal time metric, an assumption that breaks down in curved spacetime due to gravitational time dilation. We demonstrate the existence of gravitational phase transitions in problem complexity, where an NP-complete problem in one reference frame becomes polynomially solvable in another frame experiencing extreme gravitational time dilation. Through rigorous mathematical formulation, we establish a gravitationally modified complexity theory that extends classical complexity classes to incorporate observer-dependent effects, leading to a complete framework for understanding how computational complexity transforms across different spacetime reference frames. This finding parallels other self-referential insights in mathematics and physics, such as Gödel’s incompleteness theorems and Einstein’s relativity, suggesting a deeper connection between computation, gravitation, and the nature of mathematical truth.展开更多

However, existing theoretical advancements face certain limitations: They either fail to address more complex nonlinear phenomena, rely on hard-to-verify assumptions, or encounter difficulties in solving system parameters.Consequently, this paper aims to address these challenges by investigating distributed observers for nonlinear systems through the full-measured canonical form(FMCF), which is inspired by full-measured system(FMS) theory. To begin with, this study addresses the fact that the FMCF can only be obtained through the observable canonical form(OCF) in existing FMS theories.The paper demonstrates that a class of nonlinear systems can directly obtain FMCF through state space equations, independent of OCF. Also, a general method for solving FMCF in such systems is provided. Furthermore, based on the FMCF, A distributed observer is developed for nonlinear systems under two scenarios: Lipschitz conditions and open-loop bounded conditions.The paper establishes their asymptotic omniscience and demonstrates that the designed distributed observer in this study has fewer design parameters and is more convenient to construct than existing approaches. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed methods is validated through simulation results on Van der Pol oscillators and microgrid systems.展开更多

文摘For large-scale heterogeneous multi-agent systems(MASs)with characteristics of dense-sparse mixed distribution,this paper investigates the practical finite-time deployment problem by establishing a novel crossspecies bionic analytical framework based on the partial differential equation-ordinary differential equation(PDE-ODE)approach.Specifically,by designing a specialized network communication protocol and employing the spatial continuum method for densely distributed agents,this paper models the tracking errors of densely distributed agents as a PDE equivalent to a human disease transmission model,and that of sparsely distributed agents as several ODEs equivalent to the predator population models.The coupling relationship between the PDE and ODE models is established through boundary conditions of the PDE,thereby forming a PDE-ODE-based tracking error model for the considered MASs.Furthermore,by integrating adaptive neural control scheme with the aforementioned biological models,a“Flexible Neural Network”endowed with adaptive and self-stabilized capabilities is constructed,which acts upon the considered MASs,enabling their practical finite-time deployment.Finally,effectiveness of the developed approach is illustrated through a numerical example.

文摘In permanent magnet synchronous motor(PMSM)control,the jitter problem affects the system performance,so a novel reaching lawis proposed to construct a non-singular fast terminal slidingmode controller(NFTSMC)to reduce the jitter.To enhance the immunity of the system,a disturbance observer is designed to observe and compensate for the disturbance to the sliding mode controller.In addition,considering that the controller parameters are difficult to adjust,and the traditional zebra optimization algorithm(ZOA)is prone to converge prematurely and fall into local optimum when solving the optimal solution,the improved zebra optimization algorithm(IZOA)is proposed,and the ability of the IZOA in practical applications is verified by using international standard test functions.To verify the performance of IZOA,firstly,the adjustment time of IZOA is reduced by 71.67%compared with ZOA through the step response,and secondly,the tracking error of IZOA is reduced by 51.52%compared with ZOA through the sinusoidal signal following.To verify the performance of the designed controller based on disturbance observer,the designed controller reduces the speed overshoot from 2.5%to 0.63%compared with the traditional NFTSMC in the speed mutation experiment,which is a performance improvement of 70.8%,and the designed controller outperforms the traditional NFTSMC in the load mutation experiment,which is a performance improvement of 60.0%in the case of sudden load addition,and a performance improvement of 90.0%in the case of load release,which verifies that the designed controller outperforms the traditional NFTSMC.

文摘This work proposes the application of an iterative learning model predictive control(ILMPC)approach based on an adaptive fault observer(FOBILMPC)for fault-tolerant control and trajectory tracking in air-breathing hypersonic vehicles.In order to increase the control amount,this online control legislation makes use of model predictive control(MPC)that is based on the concept of iterative learning control(ILC).By using offline data to decrease the linearized model’s faults,the strategy may effectively increase the robustness of the control system and guarantee that disturbances can be suppressed.An adaptive fault observer is created based on the suggested ILMPC approach in order to enhance overall fault tolerance by estimating and compensating for actuator disturbance and fault degree.During the derivation process,a linearized model of longitudinal dynamics is established.The suggested ILMPC approach is likely to be used in the design of hypersonic vehicle control systems since numerical simulations have demonstrated that it can decrease tracking error and speed up convergence when compared to the offline controller.
文摘For air-to-air missiles, the terminal guidance’s preci-sion is directly contingent upon the tracking capabilities of the roll-pitch seeker. This paper presents a combined non-singular fast terminal sliding mode control method, aimed at resolving the frame control problem of roll-pitch seeker tracking high maneu-vering target. The sliding mode surface is structured around the principle of segmentation, which enables the control system’s rapid attainment of the zero point and ensure global fast conver-gence. The system’s state is more swiftly converged to the slid-ing mode surface through an improved adaptive fast dual power reaching law. Utilizing an extended state observer, the overall disturbance is both identified and compensated. The validation of the system’s stability and its convergence within a finite-time is grounded in Lyapunov’s stability criteria. The performance of the introduced control method is confirmed through roll-pitch seeker tracking control simulation. Data analysis reveals that newly proposed control technique significantly outperforms existing sliding mode control methods by rapidly converging the frame to the target angle, reduce the tracking error of the detec-tor for the target, and bolster tracking precision of the roll-pitch seeker huring disturbed conditions.
文摘We present a new perspective on the P vs NP problem by demonstrating that its answer is inherently observer-dependent in curved spacetime, revealing an oversight in the classical formulation of computational complexity theory. By incorporating general relativistic effects into complexity theory through a gravitational correction factor, we prove that problems can transition between complexity classes depending on the observer’s reference frame and local gravitational environment. This insight emerges from recognizing that the definition of polynomial time implicitly assumes a universal time metric, an assumption that breaks down in curved spacetime due to gravitational time dilation. We demonstrate the existence of gravitational phase transitions in problem complexity, where an NP-complete problem in one reference frame becomes polynomially solvable in another frame experiencing extreme gravitational time dilation. Through rigorous mathematical formulation, we establish a gravitationally modified complexity theory that extends classical complexity classes to incorporate observer-dependent effects, leading to a complete framework for understanding how computational complexity transforms across different spacetime reference frames. This finding parallels other self-referential insights in mathematics and physics, such as Gödel’s incompleteness theorems and Einstein’s relativity, suggesting a deeper connection between computation, gravitation, and the nature of mathematical truth.

文摘Driven by practical applications, the achievement of distributed observers for nonlinear systems has emerged as a crucial advancement in recent years. However, existing theoretical advancements face certain limitations: They either fail to address more complex nonlinear phenomena, rely on hard-to-verify assumptions, or encounter difficulties in solving system parameters.Consequently, this paper aims to address these challenges by investigating distributed observers for nonlinear systems through the full-measured canonical form(FMCF), which is inspired by full-measured system(FMS) theory. To begin with, this study addresses the fact that the FMCF can only be obtained through the observable canonical form(OCF) in existing FMS theories.The paper demonstrates that a class of nonlinear systems can directly obtain FMCF through state space equations, independent of OCF. Also, a general method for solving FMCF in such systems is provided. Furthermore, based on the FMCF, A distributed observer is developed for nonlinear systems under two scenarios: Lipschitz conditions and open-loop bounded conditions.The paper establishes their asymptotic omniscience and demonstrates that the designed distributed observer in this study has fewer design parameters and is more convenient to construct than existing approaches. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed methods is validated through simulation results on Van der Pol oscillators and microgrid systems.

文摘Extended state observer(ESO)is heavily limited by the unknown disturbance and its derivative,which requires high observing gains to decrease estimating error,resulting in serious noise sensitivity.To modify the disturbance estimation characteristics encountered by the observer,the active compression extended state observer(ACESO)is proposed in this study.The ACESO decreases the bound of residual lumped disturbance and its derivative by actively compressing the initial lumped disturbance,without relying on prior knowledge.The stability constraint and convergence results of ACESO are analyzed and compared with ESO theoretically.The results show that the ACESO mitigates the trade-off between noise sensitivity and high-gain observation.Benefiting from active compression,the ACESO has substantially less noise sensitivity than the ESO,while obtaining the same and even better estimating performance than the ESO.In addition,the nonlinear ACESO is discussed,which automatically balances the contradiction between estimation and convergence.Simulations and experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
