in this paper, we try to use modeling based on singular perturbation theory, in order to control satellite attitude during the wide rolling angle maneuvering through nonlinear h∞ control strategy. differential equations describing dynamics of the satellite are presented first, and by choosing the appropriate dynamic model for actuators and based on the standard singular perturbation model, the ...

joint flexibility is a very important factor to consider in the controller design for robot manipulators if high performance is expected. most of the research works on control of flexible-joint robots in literature have ignored the actuator dynamics to avoid complexity in controller design. the problem of designing nonlinear controller for a class of single-link flexible-joint robot manipulator...

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...

In this paper, a model for closed loop solar system is presented and an attempt is made to generalize the model to be utilized for primary design of any solar active thermal system. This model may be used for systems in which gas or a liquid are fluids that flow. Two new parameters, namely, the system heat delivery factor and the system heat absorption factor are introduced in the model. These ...

The design of closed-loop supply chain networks has attracted increasing attention in recent decades with environmental concerns and commercial factors. Due to the rapid growth of knowledge and technology, the complexity of the supply chain operations is increasing daily and organizations are faced with numerous challenges and risks in their management. Most organizations with limited resources...

Nonlinear problems are more challenging and almost complex to be solved. A recently developed Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) is introduced. This method is used to represent the system as a less complicated (almost linear) model. To verify the effectiveness, HPM based model is compared with the nonlinear dynamic in both open and closed loop PI controlled. The error indices are approximation ...

in this research, we address the application of uncertaintyprogramming to design a multi-site, multi-product, multi-period,closed-loop supply chain (clsc) network. in order to make theresults of this article more realistic, a clsc for a case study inthe iron and steel industry has been explored. the presentedsupply chain covers three objective functions: maximization ofprofit, minimization of n...
