A New Family of Smooth Strategies for Swinging up a Pendulum
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper presents a new family of strategies for swinging up a pendulum. They are derived from physical arguments based on two ideas: shaping the Hamiltonian for a system without damping; and providing damping or energy pumping in relevant regions. A two-parameter family of simple strategies without switches with nice properties is obtained. The main result is that all solutions that do not start at a zero Lebesgue measure set will converge to the upright position for a wide range of the parameters in the control law. Thus, the swing-up and the stabilization problems are simultaneously solved with a single, smooth law. Copyright c ©2005 IFAC.

A Family of Pumping-damping Smooth Strategies for Swinging up a Pendulum
In this paper we present some additional results regarding the pumpingdamping strategy for swinging up a pendulum introduced in (Åström et al., 2005). Here, the family of energy functions is enlarged and the corresponding pumpingdamping functions are proposed giving rise to new smooth controllers that swing up and stabilize the pendulum. Furthermore, a generalization of the stability criterion ...

متن کاملMINIMUM TIME SWING UP AND STABILIZATION OF ROTARY INVERTED PENDULUM USING PULSE STEP CONTROL
This paper proposes an approach for the minimum time swing upof a rotary inverted pendulum. Our rotary inverted pendulum is supported bya pivot arm. The pivot arm rotates in a horizontal plane by means of a servomotor. The opposite end of the arm is instrumented with a joint whose axisis along the radial direction of the motor. A pendulum is suspended at thejoint. The task is to design a contro...
متن کاملControlling the Inverted Pendulum
The strategies involved in swinging up and balancing the inverted pendulum are discussed. The nonlinear swing-up controller drives the system input according to the energy of the pendulum. The balancing controller is a digital linear quadratic regulator that is based on a model of the plant that has been linearized about the pendulum’s upright equilibrium position. Relays with hysteresis are em...
متن کاملSwinging up a pendulum by energy control
Properties of simple strategies for swinging up an inverted pendulum are discussed. It is shown that the behavior critically depends on the ratio of the maximum acceleration of the pivot to the acceleration of gravity. A comparison of energy based strategies with minimum time strategy gives interesting insights into the robustness of minimum time solutions.
