High Performance Control of an Active Heave Compensation System
نویسنده
چکیده
To compensate for heave motion, which has an adverse impact on the response of a drill-string or a riser, passive and active devices are usually used. Active heave compensators, whose control system is an essential part, allow conducting operations under more extreme weather conditions than passive ones. This paper presents a constructive method to design a nonlinear controller for an active heave compensation system using an electro-hydraulic system driven by a double rod actuator. The control development is based on Lyapunov’s direct method and disturbance observers.

متن کاملIndirect Control of Single-Phase Active Power Filters using Harmonic Control Arrays
The ever increase of nonlinear loads in electric distribution networks causes many problems due to the high level of harmonic currents. This paper proposes a new technique for controlling a single phase shunt active power filter based on a selective compensation using the newly developed technique of harmonic control arrays. Simulation results confirm the appropriate selective harmonic compensa...
