In pressure control applications, servo-valves or variable displacement pumps are used to meter the flow into a supply line or a chamber with relatively constant capacity, thereby controlling its pressure under the influence of disturbances such as flows in and out of the controlled volume. For most applications proportional integral derivative (PID) controllers are suited and widely used in re...

This paper deals with motion control of an electrical drive with a compliant load. Particular problem of velocity PID control is studied due to the extensive use of this control scheme in the industrial drives. The partial pole-placement method is used for the derivation of a feature-based parametrization of a set of stabilizing controllers which provide an active vibration damping functionalit...

Previous results reported in the robotics literature show the relationship between time-delay control (TDC) and proportional-integral-derivative control (PID). In this paper, we show that incremental nonlinear dynamic inversion (INDI) — more familiar in the aerospace community — are in fact equivalent to TDC. This leads to a meaningful and systematic method for PI(D)-control tuning of robust no...

The main objectives of vehicle motion control on an automated highway system are stable and safe automatic longitudinal and/or lateral path following in a platoon of vehicles. Various controllers can be used to satisfy the same objectives, but they may require different variables to be sensed or different conditions to be met. Supervision can select a controller and switch to a different contro...

This paper deals with automatic generation control of multi area power system using a Fuzzy PID controller. The controller parameters are optimized by Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO) algorithm. Initially, Hydro-Thermal-Gas two area power systems is considered and superiority of the proposed controller is verified by comparing the results with GWO optimized classical PID controller as well as recently...

A self tuning PID control strategy using reinforcement learning is proposed in this paper to deal with the control of wind energy conversion systems (WECS). Actor-Critic learning is used to tune PID parameters in an adaptive way by taking advantage of the model-free and on-line learning properties of reinforcement learning effectively. In order to reduce the demand of storage space and to impro...

This paper proposes a modular and generic architecture to deal with Global Chassis Control. Reinforcement learning is coupled with intelligent PID controllers and an optimal tire effort allocation algorithm to obtain a general, robust, adaptable, efficient and safe control architecture for any kind of automated wheeled vehicle.
