continuous stirred tank reactor (cstr) has particular importance in chemical industry. cstr has usually a nonlinear behavior which makes it difficult to control. the reactor has two parameters: the concentration and temperature of mixture both of which are uncertain. this case of cstr has large disturbance in domain. in order for disturbance rejection, a controller has to be designed. in this p...

We present an unexampled reset integrator control design based on the Clegg integrator system. Using an appropriate mathematical model of our Clegg integrator controller, stability proof of the closed-loop system applied to the vibration control problem of a second-order system is shown without invoking hybrid system theory. Furthermore, we illustrate the applicability of our controller, from t...

The problem considered is the design of a feedback system containing a linear, time-invariant, minimum-phase plant, whose parameters are known only within given bounds, such that the time-response of the system remains within specified limits. A quasi-optimal design, for given design constraints, is one which minimizes the effect of white sensor-noise on the input to the plant. Horowitz and Sid...

This paper presents a non-linear control scheme to deal with dead-time (DT) processes where small rise times are required. The control scheme is based on the combination of two strategies appeared in the literature to deal with DT processes, the Filtered Smith Predictor (FSP), which is a Smith Predictor (SP) including a filter to improve the robustness, and the PI+CI, a PI with a partial reset ...

In this paper we formally describe the hybrid integrator-gain system (HIGS), which is a nonlinear integrator designed to avoid limitations typically associated with linear integrators. The HIGS keeps sign of its input and output equal, thereby inducing less phase lag than integrator, much like famous Clegg integrator. achieves reduced by projection controller dynamics instead using resets state...

Stability properties for a class of reset systems, such as systems containing a Clegg integrator, are investigated. We present Lyapunov based results for verifying L2 and exponential stability of reset systems. Our results generalize the available results in the literature and can be easily modified to cover Lp stability for arbitrary p ∈ [1,∞]. Several examples illustrate that introducing rese...

Low-frequency oscillations have been reported in several weak-grids-connected voltage-source-converter(VSC) systems. Although efforts devoted to understanding the parametric and sensitivity impact of VSC controller gains, a general formulation oscillation mechanism is still missing. Using transfer function dynamic modelling approach, we find that outer loop active power control's bandwidth main...
