  • h robust Control Design for dynamic ship positioning
    IEE Proceedings - Control Theory and Applications, 1997
    Co-Authors: M R Katebi, M J Grimble, Y Zhang
    Abstract:

    Prerequisites to the successful application of the H∞ Control Design technique to the marine dynamic positioning (DP) Control problem are a realistic nominal model, relative bounds on modelling uncertainty, a set of frequency-dependent weighting functions to translate the Control Design specification into a Control solution and a performance index to quantify the robustness. The authors propose procedures and algorithms to achieve these objectives. The H∞ robust Control Design technique is then used to calculate a robust Controller which has superior properties to the conventional DP systems. The trade-off between track keeping and station keeping is undertaken via appropriate weighting functions and a two-degree-of-freedom Control structure is employed. The technique proposed shows that effective wave filtering can be obtained with guaranteed stability robustness. The advantage of the proposed Control Design technique is demonstrated using ship nonlinear simulations.

  • Integrated Predictive Control Design for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles
    IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1996
    Co-Authors: M R Katebi, D.s. Desanj
    Abstract:

    Abstract This paper is concerned with the Design of an integrated H∞ Controller and a multivariable GPC Controller for the trajectory tracking in Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV). A three layer tracking Controller architecture is proposed to Design an integrated Control system for navigation, guidance and Control of AUV. At The bottom layer, the local feedback Controllers are Designed using H∞ Control Design technique to directly drive the actuators. GPC Control Design technique is employed at the middle layer to Design the guidance system. A Kalman filter is used at the navigation level to provide the necessary information to the guidance system. A number of user defined parameters are employed to improve the stability robustness of the Control Design. The condition for global stability is derived and guidelines are provided for the implementation of the Controller.

  • Control Design for Smart Flexible Structure
    IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1993
    Co-Authors: M R Katebi
    Abstract:

    Abstract This paper is concerned with the Control Design for structures embedded with spatially distributed discrete sensors. Optimal Controllers are derived which considerably increases the damping of the structure over a large frequency range. The Control Design problem is formulated as a constrained optimal Control problem and the sequential nature of the system is exploited to simplify the Design procedure. The number and the locations of the sensors are determined through an iterative Design procedure aimed at meeting a set of inequality constraints. The Control problem is solved by successive application of LQR technique. The proposed technique is applied to an ideal Euler-Bernoulli beam of unity length with free ends. Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the proposed technique.

  • Approach to terminal sliding mode Control Design
    2005
    Co-Authors: Yiguang Hong, Daizhan Cheng, Guowu Yang, Sarah Spurgeon
    Abstract:

    In this paper, terminal sliding mode Control Design is considered. A Control method, different from many existing terminal sliding model Control Design methods, is proposed based on a new switching law and continuous finite-time Control ideas. Then terminal sliding mode Control laws are constructed for some classes of nonlinear systems.
