In the study, a control strategy using a feedback linearization compensator and a disturbance observer was suggested and applied to the synchronization control of two hydraulic cylinders. The hydraulic system consists of a proportional directional control valve with overlap characteristic near the neutral position, a conventional hydraulic cylinder and an external load. The control performances of the system were verified through numerical simulations. From the simulations, it was ascertained that excellent control performances were obtained with the suggested control strategy.

본 논문에서는 유연한 단일링크 매니퓰레이터의 끝단 위치 추적제어를 위해 웨이블렛 신경망을 이용한 강인 적응제어기를 제안한다. 전체 제어기는 웨이블렛 신경망에 의해 추정된 피드백 선형화 제어기와 그 추정오차를 보상하기 위한 보상제어기로 구성된다. 시스템의 출력값은 최소위상을 보장하기 위하여 재정의하여 사용된다. 구성된 웨이블렛 신경망의 연결 가중치는 Lyapunov 안정도 이론에 기초해서 조절된다. 제안된 제어기의 성능 향상은 PD 제어기와 비교함으로써 입증된다.

Laparoscopic surgery is being used in various surgical fields because it minimizes scarring. Laparoscopic operations require practical hand skills, so surgeons train on animals and via surgery training tool sets. However, these tool sets do not give the surgeon the sensation of touching real organs. A recently developed laparoscope simulator has a high friction force along the translational axis and a high gravity force along the pitch axis, and therefore it does not permit the operator to control his or her hands delecately. In the paper, the friction force along the axes is auumed to depend on the veolcity, and the gravity force on the angle and distance. We develop a compensation model that combines the gravity and friction force models.

This paper proposes a precise position control of an automatic door using a disturbance observer. Although the conventional PID controller is usually used for an automatic door system, the demand of the robust controller considering the parameter deviations and disturbances is increasing due to the various size and weight of a door. The linear model for an automatic door system is presented. Based on this model, the LQR controller using a state feedback controller and an observer are suggested. A disturbance observer to compensate the undesirable factors is also proposed. Simulation and Experimental results are presented to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed control strategy.

In this paper, a novel approach to using Subcircuit of Pspice in designing feedback for DC-DC converter systems is proposed. Proposed new approach, the feedback design procedures which are based on small signal modeling are programmed as a subcircuit in Pspice. For this purpose, Analog Behavioral Modeling (ABM) is used. By using the subcircuit, the component values of the error compensation amplifier can be easily obtained by means of Pspice DC analysis. The methodology of development is presented in detail and application examples demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed approach in designing feedbacks for DC-DC converters. The converter with PWM method used continuous current mode and calculated buck converter control signal with average and linear current technique. To decide pole and zero K-method was adapted and this kind of design procedure took stable function.

Two promising control candidates have been selected to test the sinusoidal reference tracking performance for a brush-type polishing machine having strong nonlinearities and disturbances. The controlled target system is an oscillating mechanism consisting of a common positioning stage of one degree-of-freedom with a screw and a ball nut driven by a servo motor those can be obtained commercially. Beside the strong nonlinearity such as stick-slip friction, the periodic contact of the polishing brush and the work piece adds an external disturbance. Selected control candidates are a Sliding Mode Control (SMC) and a variant of a feedback linearization control called Smooth Robust Nonlinear Control (SRNC). A SMC and SRNC are selected since they have good theoretical backgrounds, are suitable to be implemented in a digital environment and show good disturbance and modeling uncertainty rejection performance. It should be also noted that SRNC has a nobel approach in that it uses the position information to compensate the stickslip friction. For both controllers analytical and experimental studies have been conducted to show control design approaches and to compare the performance against the strong nonlinearity and the disturbances.
