There are two significant goals in teleoperation systems: Stability and performance. This paper introduces an LMI-based robust control method for bilateral transparent teleoperation systems in presence of model mismatch. The uncertainties in time delay in communication channel, task environment and model parameters of master-slave systems is called model mismatch. The time delay in communicatio...

Earned value management (EVM) is a well-known approach in a project control system which uses some indices to track schedule and cost performance of a project. In this paper, a new statistical framework based on self-starting monitoring and change point estimation is proposed to monitor correlated EVM indices which are usually auto-correlated over time and non-normally distributed. Also, a new ...

This paper provides a novel hierarchical control for VSI-based microgrids. The advantage of the provided control scheme is to maintain the frequency and voltage stability and load sharing against large-signal disturbances. A hierarchical control, consisting of three levels, is described. A new control loop based on PI controller, is presented. The new control loop has a great impact on increasi...

When a change occurs in a process, one expects to receive a signal from a control chart as quickly as possible. Upon the receipt of signal from the control chart a search for identifying the source of disturbance begins. However, searching for assignable cause around the signal time, due to the fact that the disturbance may have manifested itself into the rocess sometimes back, may not always l...

The Signal Phase and Timing (SPaT) message is an important input for research applications of Connected Vehicles (CVs). However, the actuated signal controllers are not able to directly give SPaT information since influenced by both control logic real-time traffic demand. This study elaborates estimation method which proposed according idea that controller would provide similar timing states. T...

New control circuits and algorithms are frequently proposed to control the impedance (Z) source inverter in efficient way with added benefits. As a result, several modified control techniques have been proposed in recent years. Although these techniques are clearly superior to the simple boost control method which was initially proposed along with the Z-source inverter (ZSI), little or conf...
