in this study, a new servo control system is presented for the overhead crane based on discrete-time state feedback approach. it provides both robust tracking and load swing suppression. inspired from independent joint and computed torque control in robot manipulator field, a new model is derived in which the crane actuators are considered as the main plant. the crane nonlinearities are then tr...

This paper considers solving optimization problem for linear discrete time systems such that closed-loop discrete-time system is positive (i.e., all of its state variables have non-negative values) and also finite-time stable. For this purpose, by considering a quadratic cost function, an optimal controller is designed such that in addition to minimizing the cost function, the positivity proper...

this paper proposes an approach for the minimum time swing upof a rotary inverted pendulum. our rotary inverted pendulum is supported bya pivot arm. the pivot arm rotates in a horizontal plane by means of a servomotor. the opposite end of the arm is instrumented with a joint whose axisis along the radial direction of the motor. a pendulum is suspended at thejoint. the task is to design a contro...

this paper proposes a discrete-time repetitive optimal control of electrically driven robotic manipulators using an uncertainty estimator. the proposed control method can be used for performing repetitive motion, which covers many industrial applications of robotic manipulators. this kind of control law is in the class of torque-based control in which the joint torques are generated by permanen...

in this paper, a new numerical method is presented for solvingthe optimal control problems of bang-bang type with free or xed terminaltime. the method is based on bezier polynomials which are presented inany interval as [t0; tf ]. the problems are reduced to a constrained problemswhich can be solved by using lagrangian method. the constraints ofthese problems are terminal state and conditions....
