Supervisory predictive control and on-line set-point optimization

Piotr Tatjewski (2010)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

The subject of this paper is to discuss selected effective known and novel structures for advanced process control and optimization. The role and techniques of model-based predictive control (MPC) in a supervisory (advanced) control layer are first shortly discussed. The emphasis is put on algorithm efficiency for nonlinear processes and on treating uncertainty in process models, with two solutions presented: the structure of nonlinear prediction and successive linearizations for nonlinear...

Control of an induction motor using sliding mode linearization

Erik Etien, Sébastien Cauet, Laurent Rambault, Gérard Champenois (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Nonlinear control of the squirrel induction motor is designed using sliding mode theory. The developed approach leads to the design of a sliding mode controller in order to linearize the behaviour of an induction motor. The second problem described in the paper is decoupling between two physical outputs: the rotor speed and the rotor flux modulus. The sliding mode tools allow us to separate the control from these two outputs. To take account of parametric variations, a model-based approach...

A multi-model approach to Saint-Venant equations: A stability study by LMIs

Valérie Dos Santos Martins, Mickael Rodrigues, Mamadou Diagne (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

This paper deals with the stability study of the nonlinear Saint-Venant Partial Differential Equation (PDE). The proposed approach is based on the multi-model concept which takes into account some Linear Time Invariant (LTI) models defined around a set of operating points. This method allows describing the dynamics of this nonlinear system in an infinite dimensional space over a wide operating range. A stability analysis of the nonlinear Saint-Venant PDE is proposed both by using Linear...

Verification techniques for sensitivity analysis and design of controllers for nonlinear dynamic systems with uncertainties

Andreas Rauh, Johanna Minisini, Eberhard P. Hofer (2009)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Control strategies for nonlinear dynamical systems often make use of special system properties, which are, for example, differential flatness or exact input-output as well as input-to-state linearizability. However, approaches using these properties are unavoidably limited to specific classes of mathematical models. To generalize design procedures and to account for parameter uncertainties as well as modeling errors, an interval arithmetic approach for verified simulation of continuoustime...
