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...

Designing a ship course controller by applying the adaptive backstepping method

Anna Witkowska, Roman Śmierzchalski (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

The article discusses the problem of designing a proper and efficient adaptive course-keeping control system for a seagoing ship based on the adaptive backstepping method. The proposed controller in the design stage takes into account the dynamic properties of the steering gear and the full nonlinear static maneuvering characteristic. The adjustable parameters of the achieved nonlinear control structure were tuned up by using the genetic algorithm in order to optimize the system performance....

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...

An infinite horizon predictive control algorithm based on multivariable input-output models

Maciej Ławryńczuk, Piotr Tatjewski (2004)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

In this paper an infinite horizon predictive control algorithm, for which closed loop stability is guaranteed, is developed in the framework of multivariable linear input-output models. The original infinite dimensional optimisation problem is transformed into a finite dimensional one with a penalty term. In the unconstrained case the stabilising control law, using a numerically reliable SVD decomposition, is derived as an analytical formula, calculated off-line. Considering constraints...

A backstepping approach to ship course control

Anna Witkowska, Mirosław Tomera, Roman Smierzchalski (2007)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

As an object of course control, the ship is characterised by a nonlinear function describing static manoeuvring characteristics that reflect the steady-state relation between the rudder deflection and the rate of turn of the hull. One of the methods which can be used for designing a nonlinear ship course controller is the backstepping method. It is used here for designing two configurations of nonlinear controllers, which are then applied to ship course control. The parameters of the...

Comparison of linear control methods for an AMB system

Wojciech Grega, Adam Pilat (2005)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

The contactless nature of active magnetic bearings brings about many advantages over the conventional bearing while industrial real-time applications are often limited by the significant complexity of control algorithms. This paper presents the application of an LQ controller to an active magnetic bearing system (AMB). Two control strategies are presented and compared: local and global. In the first case the rotor is modelled as two separated masses located at the bearing. In the second...

Actuator fault tolerance in control systems with predictive constrained set-point optimizers

Piotr M. Marusak, Piotr Tatjewski (2008)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Mechanisms of fault tolerance to actuator faults in a control structure with a predictive constrained set-point optimizer are proposed. The structure considered consists of a basic feedback control layer and a local supervisory set-point optimizer which executes as frequently as the feedback controllers do with the aim to recalculate the set-points both for constraint feasibility and economic performance. The main goal of the presented reconfiguration mechanisms activated in response...
