This paper presents a stability analysis of AC-DC power system feeding a speed controlled DC motor in which this load behaves as a constant power load (CPL). A CPL can significantly degrade power system stability margin. Hence, the stability analysis is very important. The DQ and generalized state-space averaging methods are used to derive the mathematical model suitable for stability issues. The paper analyzes the stability of power systems for both speed control natural frequency and DC-link parameter variations and takes into account controlled speed motor dynamics. However, accurate DC-link filter and DC motor parameters are very important for the stability study of practical systems. According to the measurement errors and a large variation in a DC-link capacitor value, the system identification is needed to provide the accurate parameters. Therefore, the paper also presents the identification of system parameters using the adaptive Tabu search technique. The stability margins can be then predicted via the eigenvalue theorem with the resulting dynamic model. The intensive time-domain simulations and experimental results are used to support the theoretical results.

In this paper, dc-link voltage control of a grid-connected QZSI is presented. Since the input current of the ZSI is discontinuous, a capacity with relatively large capacitance should be connected to the output of the PV array in order to reduce the current ripple. Due to the presence of the impedance network inductor in series with the PV array, the QZSI can achieve continuous input current flow. Several dc-link voltage control methods are compared and the method for power quality improvement is also presented. The performance of the proposed method is verified through both simulation and experimental results.

In this paper, we have proposed a new approach of routing and wavelength assignment algorithms, called Possible Available Wavelength (PAW) algorithm. The weight of a link is used as the main factor for routing decision in PAW algorithm. The weight of a link is defined as a function of hop count and available wavelengths. This function includes a determination factor of the number of wavelengths that are being used currently and are supposed to be available after a certain time. The session requests from users will be routed on the links that has the greatest number of link weight by using Dijkstra's shortest path algorithm. This means that the selected lightpath will has the least hop count and the greatest number of possible available wavelengths. The impact of proposed link weight computing function on the blocking probability and link utilization is investigated by means of computer simulation and comparing with the traditional mechanism. The results show that the proposed PAW algorithm can achieve the better performance in terms of the blocking probability and link utilization.

In this paper, we propose a robust controller for motion control of n-link robot manipulators using visual feedback. The desired joint velocity and acceleration is obtained by the feature-based visual systems and is used in the joint velocity control loop for trajectory control of the robot manipulator. We design a robust controller that compensates for bounded parametric uncertainties of robot dynamics. The stability analysis of robust joint velocity control system is shown by Lyapunov Method. The effectiveness of the proposed method is shown by simulation results on the 5-link robot manipulators with two degree of freedom.

The motion of animals and gymnasts in the air as well as free flying space robots without thrusters are subjected to nonholonomic constraints generated by the law of conservation of angular momentum. The purpose of this paper is to derive analytical posture control laws for free flying objects in the air. We propose the bang-bang control method for trajectory planning of a 3 link mechanical system with initial angular momentum. This technique is used to reduce the DOF (degrees of freedom) at first switching phase and to determine the control inputs to steer the reduced order system to the desired position. Computer simulations for motion planning of an athlete approximated by 3 link, namely platform diving, are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

The tip of the flexible robot arm has to be controlled by the active control reducing vibration because it has residual vibration after getting to desired position. This paper presents an end-point position control of a 1-link flexible robot arm having tip mass by the PID control algorithm. The system is composed of a flexible arm with tip mass, dc servomotor and ballscrew mechanism under translational motion. The feedback signal composed of the tip displacement measured by laser sensor, estimated velocity and acceleration is used to control the base motion. Theoretical results are obtained by applying the Laplace transform and the numerical inversion method to the governing equations. After the flexible robot arm reaches to. the desired position, the residual vibration is controlled by the PID algorithm. This paper gives the simulation and experimental results of end-point responses according to changing tip-mass and arm length. And this algorithm shows good effects of reducing the residual vibration. Approximately, theoretical response is in good agreement with experimental one.

A simulation analysis is presented for the position control of a single-link flexible manipulator whose end-effector is subjected to an impulsive force. Arm is rotated by a d.c. servomotor at the shoulder so that the end point stays precisely at its initial position even if the end effector is thumped with the impulsive loading. A gap sensor is used to measure the tip displacement. The control torque based on the PD control law is applied to the motor through the driver circuit. The control strategy is tested by means of computer simulation for the one-link flexible-arm prototype in the authers' laboratory at Tohoku Univ.

In this paper, we design a robust controller for trajectory control of n-link robot manipulators with bounded parametric uncertainties. The proposed control scheme with integral control improves tracking error due to limit of the robust feedback gains and use of continuous control input for chattering rejection. The integral of the tracking error is augmented to the error system equation and the stability of the closed-loop system is achieved. The performance of the proposed method is demonstrated by simulation on a 2-link manipulator.

This paper presents a adaptive fuzzy control suitable for motion control of multi-link robot manipulators with uncertainties. When joint velocities are available, full state adaptive fuzzy feedback control is designed to ensure the stability of the closed loop dynamic. If the joint velocities are not measurable, an observer is introduced and an adaptive output feedback control is designed based on the estimated velocities. To reduce the number of fuzzy rules of the fuzzy controller, we consider the properties of robot dynamics and the decomposition of the unknown input gain matrix. The proposed controller is robust against uncertainties and external disturbances. The validity of the control scheme is demonstrated by computer simulations on a two-link robot manipulator.

Direct-drive robots are suitable to position and force control with high accuracy, but it is difficult to design a controller which gives satisfactory perfonnance because of the system's nonlinearity and link-interactions. This paper is concerned with the force control of direct-drive robots. The pro¬posed algorithm consists of feedback controllers and a neural network. Mter the completion of learning, the outputs of feedback controllers are nearly equal to zero, and the neural network con¬troller plays an important role in the control system. Therefore, the optimum adjustment of parameters of feedback controllers is unnecessary. In other words, the proposed algorithm does not need any knowledge of the controlled system in advance. The effectiveness of the proposed algo¬rithm is demonstrated by the experiment on the force control of a parallelogram link-type direct¬drive robot.
