This paper presents H∞ control problem for input-delayed systems. A neutral system approach is considered to the design of PD controller for input delay systems in presence of uncertain time-invariant delay. Using this approach, the resulting closed-loop system turns into a specific time-delay system of neutral type. The significant specification of this neutral system is that its delayed coeff...

excessive cutting depth during leveling of agricultural land increases power needed by the tractor drawbar and will result in undesirable slippage and excessive strain on the tractor engine.  the result of sustained excess will be the break-down of the tractor. an auxiliary blade depth controller to prevent overloading during leveling was designed, fabricated and evaluated in this study. the sy...

this paper focuses on the effects of closed- control on the calculation of the dynamic load carrying capacity (dlcc) for mobile-base flexible-link manipulators. in previously proposed methods in the literature of dlcc calculation in flexible robots, an open-loop control scheme is assumed, whereas in reality, robot control is achieved via closed loop approaches which could render the calculated ...

Based on a recently proposed parametric approach for eigenstructure assignment in descriptor linear systems via output feedback, the robust eigenvalue assignment problem in descriptor linear systems via output feedback is solved. The problem aims to assign a set of finite closed-loop eigenvalues which have minimum sensitivities with respect to perturbations in the closed-loop coefficient matric...

this paper proposes a new method of gain scheduling control design for a nonlinear system which is described as linear parameter varying form. a performance measure based on linear matrix inequality is introduced. to consider stability and performance measures in design process, the h∞ loop-shaping method is used to design the local controllers, which can be described as state feedback observer...

Orthogonal eigenstructure control is a novel active control method for vibration suppression in multi-input multi-output linear systems. This method is based on finding an output feedback control gain matrix in such a way that the closed-loop eigenvectors are almost orthogonal to the open-loop ones. Singular value decomposition is used to find the matrix, which spans the null space of the close...

| An adaptive attitude control law is presented that realizes linear closed-loop dynamics in the attitude error vector. The Modiied Rodrigues Parameters (M-RPs) are used as the kinematic variables since they are non-singular for all possible rotations. The desired linear closed-loop dynamics can be of either PD or PID form. Only a crude estimate of the moment of inertia matrix is assumed to be ...

Orthogonal eigenstructure control is a novel control method that can be used for vibration suppression in flexible structures. The method described in this study does not need defining the desired locations of the closed-loop poles or predetermining the closed-loop eigenvectors. The method, which is applicable to linear multi-input multi-output systems, determines an output feedback control gai...
