Robust performance controller design for duty-cycle controlled series resonant converter (SRC) is proposed in this paper. The uncertainties of the converter are analyzed with load variation and power circuit components tolerances are taken into consideration. Additionally, a nominal performance (NP) controller is designed. Closed-loop system is simulated with Orcad and simulation results of r...

This paper proposes a robust control of doublefed induction generator of wind turbine to optimize its production: that means the energy quality and efficiency. The proposed control reposes in the sliding mode control using a multimodel approach which contributes on the minimization of the static error and the chattering phenomenon. This new approach is called sliding mode multimodel control (SM...

the main task of this work is related with the design of a class of siso robust control law for theregulation of substrate concentration (cdo) of an industrial activated sludge wastewater plant. the controldesign is related with an uncertainty estimator (reduced order observer) based active control. departing from the tracking error between the desired and the current substrate concentrations t...

This paper suggests a method for designing PSS to damp multi-machine power system oscillations.  The method is based on robust control theory. First, the conventional method for designing robust controller in LMI framework is illustrated. Then, the suggested method is given, in which, a PID output feedback controller is tuned using the LMI approach. Mostly, the classical methods are used t...

 Ambiguity in the inputs of the models is typical especially in portfolio selection problem where the true distribution of random variables is usually unknown. Here we use robust optimization approach to address the ambiguity in conditional-value-at-risk minimization model. We obtain explicit models of the robust conditional-value-at-risk minimization for polyhedral and correlated polyhedral am...

This paper provides a new robust design method to dimension a mechanism and to synthesize its dimensional tolerances. The general issue is to find a robust mechanism for a given task, and to compute its optimal dimensional tolerances. For that purpose, the developed approach follows two consecutive steps, which are independent and complementary. First, the dimensions of the mechanism are comput...

An anti-lock braking system control is a rather difficult problem due to its strongly nonlinear and uncertain characteristics. To overcome these difficulties, robust control methods should be employed such as a sliding mode control. The aim of this paper is to give a short overview of sliding mode control techniques implemented in the control of ABS. The most used control algorithms are applied...

This paper presents theoritical and experimental design of a robust control based on quantitative feedback theory (QFT) approach to control deepness variations on cutting process for a spindle of lathe machine. The dynamics of a spindle is uncertain and varying due to deepness variation on cutting process. Practical design steps are explained in which QFT based conditions are assembled to obtai...

In this paper, the problem of attitude control of a 1D non-linear exible spacecraft is investigated. Three controllers are presented. The rst is a non-linear dynamic inversion, the second is a linear -synthesis and the third is a composition of dynamic inversion and a -synthesis controller. It is assumed only one reaction wheel is used. Actuator saturation is considered in the design of control...
