Structured flight control law design using non-smooth optimization
نویسنده
چکیده
We extend the concept of bundle methods to address non-convex and nonsmooth optimization problems arising in the design of a feedback control law for the longitudinal flight control of a civil aircraft. Our novel approach has two advantages. It allows to handle the specific structure of the control law directly, and we can express control law specifications directly as band-limited frequency-domain mathematical programming constraints.

Design of a flight control architecture using a non-convex bundle method
We design a feedback control architecture for longitudinal flight of an aircraft. The multi-level architecture includes the flight control loop to govern the short term dynamics of the aircraft, and the autopilot to control the long term modes. Using H∞ performance and robustness criteria, the problem is cast as a non-convex and non-smooth optimization program. We present a non-convex bundle me...
متن کاملOptimization-based non-linear Control Law with Increased Robustness for Air Fuel Ratio Control in SI Engines
In spark ignition (SI) engines, the accurate control of air fuel ratio (AFR) in the stoichiometric value is required to reduce emission and fuel consumption. The wide operating range, the inherent nonlinearities and the modeling uncertainties of the engine system are the main difficulties arising in the design of AFR controller. In this paper, an optimization-based nonlinear control law is a...

In this paper a novel direct adaptive fuzzy system is proposed to control flexible-joints robot including actuator dynamics. The design includes two interior loops: the inner loop controls the motor position using proposed approach while the outer loop controls the joint angle of the robot using a PID control law. One novelty of this paper is the use of a PSO algorithm for optimizing the contro...

A near-optimal midcourse trajectory shaping guidance algorithm is proposed for both air and ballistic target engagement mission attributes for generic long range interceptor missile. This guidance methodology is based on the maximum final velocity as the objective function and maximum permissible flight altitude as the in-flight state constraint as well as the head-on orientation as the termina...
متن کاملImproved Computation of Mixed Bounds for Flight Control Law Analysis
In this paper we describe an approach for improving the quality of upper and lower bounds on the structured singular value in the case of mixed real and complex uncertainty. The proposed approach uses constrained non-linear optimisation to improve the bounds on generated by standard algorithms, and is shown to be simple and computationally efficient to implement. The usefulness of the approach ...
