We consider the problems of kinematic and dynamic constraints, with actuator saturation and wheel slippage avoidance, for motion planning of a holonomic three-wheeled omni-directional robot. That is, the motion planner must not demand more velocity and acceleration at each time instant than the robot can provide. A new coupled non-linear dynamics model is derived. The novel concepts of Velocity...

In this paper we give a necessary and suÆcient condition for an Internal Model Control (IMC) structure to be robustly L2 stable with respect to H1 bounded model uncertainty and in presence of input saturation. This condition is used for the design of a controller that is the best H1 approximation to \perfect" linear control among all controllers guaranteeing L2 stability in the presence of actu...

In this paper, a fixed-time distributed cooperative control under actuator faults with input saturation scheme is designed for multiple surface vessels (MSVs). Firstly, disturbance observer (FxDO) introduced to observe unknown environmental disturbances and (AF). Secondly, deal the saturation, an improved nonlinear antiwindup compensator compensate effect of actuator. Thirdly, fault-tolerant ev...

the technique used to control the airflow is based on the electro-hydrodynamic actuator which is also called plasma actuator. this actuator ensures the airflow control thanks to the electric wind created by the electrical corona discharge. this ionic wind is developed at the profile surface tangential to the initial free airflow so that it has a significant effect on the boundary layer flow. th...

In this paper, a new approach regarding a reconfigured system is proposed to improve the performance of an active fault tolerant control system. The system performance is evaluated with an intelligent index of performance. The reconfiguration mechanism is based on a model predictive controller and reference trajectory management techniques. When an actuator fault occurs in the system, a new deg...

A novel model predictive control with state estimator is proposed for polytopic uncertain systems with actuator saturation in which the actuator saturation is described as a convex hull composition. At each sampling time, a state feedback control law is obtained such that the upper bound of the quadratic objective function is minimized. The intrinsic relationship between infinite horizon contro...

Event-triggered control aims at reducing the communication load over the feedback link in networked control systems by sending information only if certain event conditions, which guarantee a desired control performance, are satisfied. This article investigates the consequences of actuator saturation on the behavior of the event-triggered control loop in terms of its stability and information ex...

To design fault tolerant control systems (FTCS), one of the important issues to consider is whether to recover the original system performance/functionality completely or to accept some degree of performance degradation after occurrence of a fault. What are the consequences if the performance degradation is not taken into consideration and how to take such performance degradation into account i...

This paper addresses an approximation-based anti-windup (AW) control strategy for suppressing the windup effect caused by actuator saturation nonlinearity in proportional–integral–derivative (PID) controlled systems. The effect of actuator constraint is firstly regarded as a disturbance imported to the PID controller. The external disturbance can then be modeled by a linear differential equatio...
