The problem of parameter identification for multivariable stochastic linear systems from output measurements, which are corrupted by noises, is considered. A modified Luenberger's input/output canonical form is used for reducing the number of unknown coefficients. A computationally and conceptionally simple systematic procedure for parameter estimation is obtained using output correlation method. The estimates are shown to be asymptotically normal, unbiased and consistent. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the identification method.

As well-known, the extended Kalman filter (EKF) is a powerful tool for parameter identification with limited measurements. However, traditional EKF is not applicable when the external excitation is unknown. By using least-squares estimation (LSE) for force identification, an EKF with unknown input (EKF-UI) approach was recently proposed by the authors. In this approach, to ensure the influence matrix be of full column rank, the sensors have to be deployed at all the degrees-of-freedom (DOFs) corresponding to the unknown excitation, saying collocated measurements are required. However, it is not easy to guarantee that the sensors can be installed at all these locations. To circumvent this limitation, based on the idea of first-order-holder discretization (FOHD), an improved EKF with unknown input (IEKF-UI) approach is proposed in this study for the simultaneous identification of structural parameters and unknown excitation. By using projection matrix, an improved observation equation is obtained. Few displacement measurements are fused into the observation equation to avoid the so-called low-frequency drift. To avoid the ill-conditioning problem for force identification without collocated measurements, the idea of FOHD is employed. The recursive solution of the structural states and unknown loads is then analytically derived. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is validated via several numerical examples. Results show that the proposed approach is capable of satisfactorily identifying the parameters of linear and nonlinear structures and the unknown excitation applied to them.

This paper presents a method to design an adaptive controller for the kinematic model of a two-wheeled welding mobile robot (WMR) with unknown parameters. We propose a nonlinear controller based on the Lyapunov function to enhance the tracking properties of the WMR. The WMR can track any smooth curved welding path at a constant velocity of the welding point. The system has three degrees of freedom including two wheels and one torch slider. Torch slider motion is used for fast tracking. To design the tracking performance, the errors from WMR to steel wall is defined, and the controller is designed to drive the errors to zero as fast as possible. The effectiveness of the proposed controller is shown through simulation results.

This paper presents the appplication of computer vision for the purpose of determing the position of the unknown point in the plane. The presented contrik method is estimate the six view parameters reqresenting the relationship between the image plane coordinates and the real physical coordinates. The estimation of six parameters is indispensable for transforming the 2-dimensional camera coordinates to the 3-dimensional spatial coordinates. Then, the position of unknown point is estimated based on the estimated parameters depending on the cameras. The suitability of this control scheme is demonstrated experimentally by determining of position the unknown point in the plane.

Free vibration analysis of a three-layered microbeam including an elastic micro-core and two piezo-magnetic face-sheets resting on Pasternak's foundation are studied in this paper. Strain gradient theory is used for size-dependent modeling of microbeam. In addition, three-unknown shear and normal deformations theory is employed for description of displacement field. Hamilton's principle is used for derivation of the governing equations of motion in electro-magneto-mechanical loads. Three micro-length-scale parameters based on strain gradient theory are employed for prediction of vibrational characteristics of structure in micro-scale. The results show that increase of three micro-length-scale parameters leads to significant increase of three natural frequencies especially for increase of second micro-length-scale parameter. This result is according to this fact that stiffness of a micro-scale structure is increased with increase of micro-length-scale parameters.

In this paper, we design a robust adaptive controller for a nonlinear systems with uncertainties to be rejected via disturbance adaptation law. The nonlinear system considered in this paper has unknown nonlinear functions being influenced by external disturbance. The upper bounds of unknown nonlinear functions at each time is estimated by using disturbance adaptation law. The estimated nonlinear functions are used to design stabilizing function and control of input. Tuning function is used to estimate unknown system parameter without overparametrization. A set-point regulation error converges to a residual set close to zero asymptotically fast.

It is well known that using any additional information in the estimation of unknown parameters with new sample of observations diminishes the sampling units needed and minimizes the risk of new estimators. There are many rational reasons to assure that the existence of additional information in practice and there exists many practical cases in which additional information is available in the form of target value (initial value) about the unknown parameters. This article is described the problem of how the prior initial value about the unknown parameters can be utilized and combined with classical Bayes estimator to get a new combination of Bayes estimator and prior value to improve the properties of the new combination. In this article, two classes of Bayes-shrinkage and preliminary test Bayes-shrinkage estimators are proposed for the scale parameter of exponential distribution. The bias, risk and risk ratio expressions are derived and studied. The performance of the proposed classes of estimators is studied for different choices of constants engaged in the estimators. The comparisons, conclusions and recommendations are demonstrated.

The analytical model determining the unknown parameters of reaction rate equation which is necessary to simulate the combustion phenomena of energetic materials is proposed. The relationship between detonation velocity and size effect of energetic materials is derived from simplified JWL++ model. Theoretical model is used to investigate the combustion characteristics of certain energetic materials before running Hydrocode by pre-determination of unknown parameter, b. When b=0.8, the behavior of HANFO gunpowder is in the form of concave-up and ANFO explosives has the concave-down form in case of b=1.5. The analytical model provides efficient and highly accurate results rather than previous method which simulated the unconfined-rate-stick via the numerical means.

Indirect adaptive pole assignment PID controllers for unknown systems with time varying delay, is proposed. Unknown system parameters are estimated by recursive least square method, and time varying delay is estimated using indirect predictors. Since the order of parameter vectors didn't increase, the computational burden is not largely increased in spite of using indirect adaptive control method with time varying delay estimation. Computer simulation is performed to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed method.
