A novel nussbaum functions based adaptive event-triggered asymptotic tracking control of stochastic nonlinear systems with strong interconnections

In this work, the issue of event-triggered-based asymptotic tracking adaptive control of stochastic nonlinear systems in pure-feedback form with strong interconnections is considered. First, a new decentralized control scheme is developed by introducing the new types of Nussbaum functions, which enables the output of each subsystem to asymptotically track the desired reference signal. Second, the nonaffine structures and the unknown control gains existing in the nonlinear systems are a part of the considered system model, which makes it more complicated to design the decentralized controllers. Therefore, the complexity caused by the nonaffine structures is faciliated by mean value theorem and the unknown control gains are handled by a novel Nussbaum function in our proposed design scheme. Meanwhile, the unknown nonlinearities of the system are approximated by using intelligent control technology. Furthermore, an event-triggered method is introduced in the design process to save communication resources effectively. It is shown that all signals of the closed-loop systems are bounded in probability and the tracking errors asymptotically converge to zero in probability. Finally, the simulation results illustrate the effectivity of the presented scheme

Fixed-time command filtered output feedback control for twin-roll inclined casting system with prescribed performance

The article investigates the issue of fixed-time control with adaptive output feedback for a twin-roll inclined casting system (TRICS) with disturbance. First, by using the mean value theorem, the nonaffine functions are decoupled to simplify the system. Second, radial basis function neural networks (RBFNNs) are introduced to approximate an unknown term, and a nonlinear neural state observer is created to handle the effects of unmeasured states. Then, the backstepping design framework is combined with prescribed performance and command filtering techniques to demonstrate that the scheme proposed in this article guarantees system performance within a fixed-time. The control design parameters determine the upper bound of settling time, regardless of the initial state of the system. Meanwhile, it ensures that all signals in the closed-loop system (CLS) remain bounded, and it can also maintain the tracking error within a predefined range within a fixed time. Finally, simulation results assert the effectiveness of the method

Neural Control of Bimanual Robots With Guaranteed Global Stability and Motion Precision

Robots with coordinated dual arms are able to perform more complicated tasks that a single manipulator could hardly achieve. However, more rigorous motion precision is required to guarantee effective cooperation between the dual arms, especially when they grasp a common object. In this case, the internal forces applied on the object must also be considered in addition to the external forces. Therefore, a prescribed tracking performance at both transient and steady states is first specified, and then, a controller is synthesized to rigorously guarantee the specified motion performance. In the presence of unknown dynamics of both the robot arms and the manipulated object, the neural network approximation technique is employed to compensate for uncertainties. In order to extend the semiglobal stability achieved by conventional neural control to global stability, a switching mechanism is integrated into the control design. Effectiveness of the proposed control design has been shown through experiments carried out on the Baxter Robot

Decentralized Optimal Control With Application In Power System

An output-feedback decentralized optimal controller is proposed for power systems with renewable energy penetration. Renewable energy source is modeled similar to the classical generator model and is equipped with the unified power flow controller (UPFC). The transient performance of power system is considered and stability of the dynamical states are investigated. An offline decentralized optimal controller is designed that utilizes only the local states. The network comprises conventional synchronous generators as well as renewable sources with inverter equipped with UPFC. Subsequently, the optimal decentralized controller is compared to the initial stabilizing controller used to obtain the optimal controller. An online decentralized optimal controller is designed for discrete-time system. Two neuro networks are utilized to estimate value function and optimal control strategy. Furthermore, a novel observer-based decentralized optimal controller is developed on small scale discrete-time power system. The system is trained followed by least square rules and successive approximation. Simulation results on IEEE 14-, 30-, and 118-bus power system benchmarks shows satisfactory performance of the online decentralized controller. And also, simulation results demonstrate great performance of the observer and the optimal controller compare to the centralized optimal controller

Neural networks-based adaptive fault-tolerant control for a class of nonstrict-feedback nonlinear systems with actuator faults and input delay

This paper addresses the challenge of adaptive control for nonstrict-feedback nonlinear systems that involve input delay, actuator faults, and external disturbance. To deal with the complexities arising from input delay and unknown functions, we have incorporated Pade approximation and radial basis function neural networks, respectively. An adaptive controller has been developed by utilizing the Lyapunov stability theorem and the backstepping approach. The suggested method guarantees that the tracking error converges to a compact neighborhood that contains the origin and that every signal in the closed-loop system is semi-globally uniformly ultimately bounded. To demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed method, an electromechanical system application example, and a numerical example are provided. Additionally, comparative analysis was conducted between the Pade approximation proposed in this paper and the auxiliary systems in the existing method. Furthermore, error assessment criteria have been employed to substantiate the effectiveness of the proposed method by comparing it with existing results

Adaptive NN Control for Multisteering Plane Aircraft with Dead Zone or Backlash Input Nonlinearity

Considering that many factors such as actuator input dead zone, backlash, and external disturbance could affect the exactness of trajectory tracking, therewith a robust adaptive neural network control scheme on the basis of control allocation is proposed for the sake of tracking control of multisteering plane aircraft with actuator input dead zone or backlash nonlinearity. First of all, an actuator input dead zone or backlash nonlinearity control assignment model is established and the control allocation equation is derived. Secondly, the system nonlinear uncertainty is compensated by means of radial basis function neural network, and a robust term is introduced to achieve robustness against external disturbance and system errors. Finally, by utilizing Lyapunov stability theorem, it has been proved that all the signals in the closed-loop system are bounded, and the tracking error converges to a small residual set asymptotically. Simulation results on ICE101 multisteering plane aircraft demonstrate the outstanding tracking performance and strong robustness as well as effectiveness of the proposed approach, which can effectively overcome the adverse influence of dead zone, backlash nonlinearity, and external disturbance on the system
