Multimodeling Control via System Balancing
A new approach in multimodeling strategy is proposed. Multimodel strategies in which control agents use different simplified models of the same system are being developed using balancing transformation and the corresponding order reduction concepts. Traditionally, the multimodeling concept was studied using the ideas of multitime scales (singular perturbations) and weak subsystem coupling. For all reduced-order models obtained, a Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control problem was solved. Different order reduction techniques were compared based on the values of the optimized criteria for the closed-loop case where the full-order balanced model utilizes regulators calculated to be the optimal for various reduced-order models. The results obtained were demonstrated on a real-world example: a multiarea power system consisting of two identical areas, that is, two identical power plants
The system order reduction via balancing in view of the method of singular perturbation
U radu je predstavljeno nekoliko tehnika za redukciju reda sistema, poznatih iz literature, koje su sve zasnovane na uravnoteženju sistema uz primenu metode singularnih perturbacija. Ove tehnike imaju istu robusnost tačnosti izračunatu u skladu sa H∞ normom sistema redukovanog reda kao i dve tehnike poznate pod nazivom direktno odsecanje i metod balansirane rezidualizacije. Modifikacija ovih tehnika zadržava tačnu vrednost pojačanja jednosmernog signala kakva je kod originalnog sistema i daje aproksimaciju od veoma dobre do odlične tačnosti na nižim i srednjim učestanostima. Efikasnost prikazanih tehnika za redukciju reda modela data je na realnom primeru.This paper presents several techniques for system order reduction, known from literature, all of them based on system balancing by employing the method of singular perturbation. These techniques have the same robustness accuracy evaluated with respect to the H∞ norm of the reducedorder system like two techniques known as the direct truncation and the balancing residualization method. A modification of these techniques preserves the exact DC gain as the original system, and produces from very good to excellent accuracy at low and medium frequencies. To illustrate the efficiency of the order-reduction techniques here presented, a real simulation example is given

Digital battery capacity meter with battery charger
U radu je razvijen i prikazan digitalni merač kapaciteta akumulatora, sa integrisanim punjačem. Takođe, razvijen je i upravljačko / kontrolni softver za mikrokontroler ovog uređaja i PC računar, kako bi se podaci dobijeni merenjem, dalje mogli obrađivati i upoređivati, korišćenjem nekog od programa za tabelarna izračunavanja. Zbog široke primene elektro-hemijskih izvora, bilo primarnih, bilo akumulatorskih, izuzetno je važno poznavati i meriti njihov kapacitet. Merenje kapaciteta primarnih ćelija pomaže pri odabiru najpovoljnijeg rešenja (u skladu sa odnosom cene i kapaciteta) za napajanje prenosivih uređaja. Merenjem kapaciteta akumulatora, može se utvrditi njihovo stanje i da li su spremni za dalju eksploataciju, a i proveriti kapacitet novih akumulatora, na primer, radi upoređivanja sa podacima u tehničkoj dokumentaciji proizvođača.In this paper, a digital battery capacity meter with an integrated battery charger is developed and built. Also, the software used to control and monitor the microcontroller of the device from the PC has been developed, so that the data obtained from measurement can be processed and compared further using one of the available spreadsheet software packages. Due to the widespread use of electrochemical energy sources, whether primary ones or of the battery type, it is extremely important to know and measure their actual capacity. Primary cell capacity measurement helps in selecting the most appropriate solution (with respect to the cost/ capacity ratio) for powering portable or mobile devices. By measuring the capacity of the used battery, its condition and capability of further exploitation can be determined. Measuring capacity can provide verification of the data in the manufacturer's specifications, for example, in order to compare measurements and confirm statements in technical documentation
MAINTENANCE, TESTING AND AUTOMATIC CONTROL OF THE CUP FILLING MASCHINE
Industrial automation of the production process is based on the fusion of a
CNC machine and an industrial robot. The industry of today requires skilled
professionals and educators. Special attention is to be paid to the testing of
the components and system operation and the maintenance of the system.
Robots and automation are omnipresent nowadays and have also taken a
significant role in education. The research presented here aims to overhaul
the scaled model of the cup-filling machine to make it operate fully
automated. The parts and subsystems of the cup-filling machine are
explained in detail and their operation was tested. The cup-filling machine is
fully automated using a programmable logic controller (PLC) SIEMENS S7
300. The machine can recognize two cup sizes and fills both types without
overspilling. Filled cups are transported over a conveyor belt and classified
according to their sizes PLCs have mainly replaced relays in industrial
automation, bearing in mind that this way, scale-up is much more feasible,
and alteration of control is done in PLC program code. This also has
contributed to better maintenance and operation verification
Theoretical support of modern issues related to laser techniques, applications of coherent radiation and modern technologies
Modern problems of the Earth’s population are increasing in the areas related to the basic concepts of survival of living beings, but also with opposite views, if parallels are made between energy and ecology. Many new technologies are searching for their way towards development and must be viewed from several points of view. Inthis paper, the issue is addressed through modern laser techniques in terms of obtaining energy for various purposes concerning selected roles in medicine, as well as the impact on flora, fauna and as a support to other technologies both classical and modern. Contemporary attributes of lasers and other quantum generators in termsof coherence, power and intensity densities have significantly increased, although some predictions from the time of the first quantum generator masers, like gammarasers (and X raser) are still relatively far from commercial concepts. Some of the possible contemporary implementations of quantum generators in measurements control and processing schemes, along with other possible applications of various laser types, have been estimated. The paper focuses on the characterization of today’s problems with Covid-19 virus, only from the engineering point of view. The lexical side of the issue is also included, as well as the social management needswith the application of modern technologies, including help from natural sciences

Robust order reduction using system balancing with respect of the method of singular perturbation
Several techniques for system order reduction are presented here, known from literature, all of them based on system balancing and some of them employing the method of singular perturbation. These techniques are compared with the two techniques known as the direct truncation and the balancing residualization method for efficiency in approximating the model in two cases: when the system is in the open loop and when the system is working in the closed loop with negative unity gain. All of these techniques for order reduction have the same robustness accuracy evaluated with respect to the H-infinity norm of the reduced-order system. A modification of these techniques preserves the exact DC gain as the original system, and produce from very good to excellent accuracy at low and medium frequencies. To illustrate the efficiency of the order-reduction techniques here presented, a real simulation example is given. The closed loop case simulation shows that high frequency dynamics of the original system can be of more importance for more accurate approximation of the system behaviour in the closed loop even if the high frequency modes appear to be of less significance in the open loop
