A kind of boundary layer is built near the ideal switch surface which can eliminate chattering in the switch surface. The proposed control method with L2 gain can guarantee exponential stability of a system state with no parameter uncertainty and exter- nal disturbance, while it can guarantee state ultimate boundness if parameter uncertainty and external disturbance exist. In the proposed design method, stability of the closed-loop system is analyzed by adopting the Lyapurtov func- tion approach. Finally the numerical simulation results show that the proposed smooth variable structure controller has good pelformance without chattering in the switch surface.展开更多

There are three identical flywheels orthogonally mounted on board. Each rotor is driven by a brushless DC motor （BLDCM）. Models of spacecraft attitude dynamics and flywheel rotor driving motor electromechanics are discussed in detail. The controller design is similar to saturation limit linear assignment. An auxiliary parameter and a boundary coefficient are imported into the controller to guaran- tee system stability and improve control performance. A time-varying and state-dependent flywheel output torque saturation limit model is established. Stability of the closed-loop control system and asymptotic convergence of system states are proved via Lyapunov methods and LaSalle invariance principle. Boundedness of the auxiliary parameter ensures that the control objective can be achieved, while the boundary parameter＇s value makes a balance between system control performance and flywheel utilization efficiency. Compared with existing controllers, the newly developed controller with variable torque saturation limit can bring smoother control and faster system response. Numerical simulations validate the effectiveness of the controller.展开更多

For this variable domain problem, the boundary of the domain is moving and the shape of theboundary is defined by a known time-dependent function. By making use of the Galerkin finite element method, we first project the original optimal control problem into a semi-discrete optimal control problem governed by a system of ordinary differential equations. Then, based on the aforementioned semi-discrete problem, we apply the control parameterization method to obtain an optimal parameter selection problem governed by a lumped parameter system, which can be solved as a nonlinear optimization problem by a Sequential Quadratic Programming （SQP） algorithm. The numerical simulation is given to illustrate the effectiveness of our numerical approximation for the variable domain problem with the finite element method and the control parameterization method.展开更多
