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....

Variable measurement step in 2-sliding control

Arie Levant (2000)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

Sliding mode is used in order to retain a dynamic system accurately at a given constraint and features theoretically-infinite-frequency switching. Standard sliding modes are known to feature finite time convergence, precise keeping of the constraint and robustness with respect to internal and external disturbances. Having generalized the notion of sliding mode, higher order sliding modes preserve or generalize its main properties, improve its precision with discrete measurements and...

Control error dynamic modification as an efficient tool for reduction of effects introduced by actuator constraints

Krzysztof B. Janiszowski (2009)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

A modification of digital controller algorithms, based on the introduction of a virtual reference value, which never exceeds active constraints in the actuator output is presented and investigated for some algorithms used in single-loop control systems. This idea, derived from virtual modification of a control error, can be used in digital control systems subjected to both magnitude and rate constraints. The modification is introduced in the form of on-line adaptation to the control...

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...
