چکیده

The paper describes an overall approach for determining tilt control system performance. Firstly the issues relating to dynamic performance are reviewed, then some trade-off graphs are given, based upon the PCT index approach which is now accepted as a European Standard. These graphs inter-relate vehicle speed, the maximum tilt angle, and the cant deficiency compensation factor, and help to determine the optimum operational conditions for a tilting train. Secondly a method for quantifying the dynamic performance is explained, in particular aimed at a comprehensive assessment of different tilt control laws. Simulation results are included to illustrate the method, and some preliminary conclusions regarding different controllers are presented.

Delay-Scheduled Controllers for Inter-Area Oscillations Considering Time Delays

Unlike the existing views that was introduced the existence of delay caused by the transmission of wide area measurement system data (WAMS) into the controllers input of the power oscilation damping (POD) by communication networks as a reason for poor performance of the POD controllers. This paper shows that the presence of time delay in the feedback loop may improve the performance of a POD co...

Presentation of quasi-linear piecewise selected models simultaneously with designing of bump-less optimal robust controller for nonlinear vibration control of composite plates

The idea of using quasi-linear piecewise models has been established on the decomposition of complicated nonlinear systems, simultaneously designing with local controllers. Since the proper performance and the final system close loop stability are vital in multi-model controllers designing, the main problem in multi-model controllers is the number of the local models and their position not payi...
