Sliding mode control (SMC), which is one of active control algorithms showing remarkable control performance, requires the excessive control force for control of seismically excited civil structures. Therefore, controller saturation should be considered in design of SMC. In this study, a method for determining the maximum control force is developed in terms of the fraction of the lateral restoring force using a design response spectrum. Numerical analyses of MDOF structures with one or multiple control devices verify the effectiveness of the proposed method for the control of seismically excited civil structures with saturation problem.

To reach high areal density, less track pitch is expected and more servo bandwidth is required. One approach to overcoming the problem is by using dual stage servo system. For this system. we have suggested new milliactuator based on the shear mode of piezoelectric elements to drive the head suspension assembly. In this paper, we introduce milliactuator and controller design method, PQ method. PQ method reduces the controller design problem for DISO (dual-input/single-output) systems to two standard controller design problems for SISO ( single-input/single-output) problems. The first part of PQ method directly addresses the issue of actuator output contribution, and the second part allows the use of traditional loop shaping to achieve the overall system performance. This paper shows how to employ the PQ method to meet aggressive close-loop performance specifications for a disk drive system with a VCM and piezoelectric milliactuator.

In this study, an adaptive control scheme with a pre-specified $H_{\infty}$ property is proposed for the tracking control of linear induction motor (LIM) drive system. Under the influence of uncertainties and external disturbances, by using nonlinear decoupling and parameter tuner, the robust performance control problem is formulated as a nonlinear $H_{\infty}$ problem and solved by a quadratic storage function. This new design method is able to track the step and several periodic commands with improved performance in face of parameter perturbations and external disturbances. Simulation and experimental results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive $H_{\infty}$ controller.

This paper proposes a novel controller design scheme for multimachine power systems based on the explorized policy iteration. Power systems have several uncertainties on system dynamics due to the various effects of interconnections between generators. To solve this problem, the proposed method solves the LQR (Linear Quadratic Regulation) problem of isolated subsystems without the knowledge of a system matrix and the interconnection parameters of multimachine power systems. By selecting the proper performance indices, it guarantees the stability and convergence of the LQ optimal control. To implement the proposed scheme, the least squares based online method is also investigated in terms of PE (Persistency of Excitation), interconnection parameters and exploration signals. Finally, the performance and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm are demonstrated by numerical simulations of three-machine power systems with governor controllers.

In this paper, we present a linear controller for attitude of aircraft. We use a rotational matrix in one approach and a quaternion in the other approach. We also find some interesting mathematical properties concerning a symmetric rotational matrix and we use these properties to analyze the stability of the proposed control law. We find that the quaternion approach is better than rotational matrix approach because there exists no singular region problem in quaternion approach. On the other hand, singular region problem may happens in rotational matrix approach. The controller structure of the quaternion is also very simple compared with the one proposed by using a rotational matrix approach. We make use Matlab Simulink to simulate and illustrate the theoretical claims. The graphic animation program is developed based on Open-GL for the computer simulation of the proposed control algorithm.

This paper considers the design of mixed $H_2/\;H_{\infty}$ controllers for linear time-invariant descriptor systems. Firstly, an $H_{\infty}$ and $H_2$ synthesis problem for a descriptor system are presented separately in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) based on the bounded real lemma. Then, the existence of a mixed $H_2/\;H_{\infty}$ controller by which the $H_2$ norm of the second channel is minimized while keeping the $H_{\infty}$ norm bound of the first channel less than ${\gamma}$, is reduced to the linear objective minimization problem. The class of desired controllers that are assumed to have the same structure as the plant is parameterized by using the linearizing change of variables. In addition, we show the procedure by which a obtained descriptor controller can be transformed to a non-descriptor one.

In Underwater Flight Vehicle depth control system, the followings must be required. First, it needs robust performance which can get over nonlinear characteristics. Second, it needs accurate performance which have small overshoot phenomenon and steady state error. Third, it needs continuous control input. Finally, it needs interpolation method which can solve the speed dependency problem of controller parameters. To solve these problems, we propose adepth control method using Fuzzy Sliding Mode Controller and Neural Network Interpolator. Simulation results show the proposed method has robust and accurate control performance by the continuous control input and has no speed dependency problem.

In this paper, peak detector of generator output voltage and variable gain controller is introduced for the fast dynamic response. The general r.m.s. detecting signal of generator has inherent time delay from the actual signal. So the dynamic response of generator using conventional PID controller has some problem in sudden load change. In order to overcome this problem, the peak detector and signal selector with variable gain controller is used in this paper. The proposed control scheme is verified from experimental test of 200kW diesel engine-generator.

This paper is concerned with an iterative linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach to the design of a structurally constrained output feedback controller such as decentralized control. The structured synthesis is formulated as a novel rank-constrained LMI optimization problem, where the controller parameters are explicitly described so as to impose structural constraints on the parameter matrices. An iterative penalty method is applied to solve the rank-constrained LMI problem. Numerical experiments are performed to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper considers the problem of delay-dependent guaranteed cost controller design for uncertain neutral systems with distributed delays. The system under consideration is subject to norm-bounded time-varying parametric uncertainty appearing in all the matrices of the state-space model. By constructing appropriate Lyapunov functionals and using matrix inequality techniques, a state feedback controller is designed such that the resulting closed-loop system is not only robustly stable but also guarantees an adequate level of performance for all admissible uncertainties. Furthermore, a convex optimization problem is introduced to minimize a specified cost bound. By matrix transformation techniques, the corresponding optimal guaranteed controller can be obtained by solving a linear matrix inequality. Finally, a simulation example is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
