The robustness analysis is performed employing a 2~3 factorial experimental design for a fractional order proportional integral and derivative controller(FOPID), integer order proportional integral and derivative controller(IOPID)and the Skogestad internal model control controller(SIMC). The factors assumed in experiment are the presence of random noise,external disturbances in the system input and variable load. As output variables, the experimental design employs the system step response and the controller action. Practical implementation of FOPID and IOPID controllers uses the MATLAB stateflow toolbox and a NI data acquisition system. Results of the robustness analysis show that the FOPID controller has a better performance and robust stability against the experiment factors.展开更多

The controller is called DE-PID controller. To overcome the disadvantages of the integral performance criteria in the frequency domain such as IAE, ISE, and ITSE, a new performance criterion in the time domain is proposed.

Three typical control systems are chosen to test and evaluate the adaptation and robustness of the proposed DE-PID controller. The simulation results show that the proposed approach has superior features of easy implementation, stable convergence characteristic, and good computational efficiency. Compared with the ZN, GA, and ASA, the proposed design method is indeed more efficient and robust in improving the step response of a control system.展开更多

In the design of a fractional order controller the interest is mainly focused on the s-domain, but there exists a difficult problem in the s-domain that needs to be solved, i.e. how to calculate fractional derivatives and integrals efficiently and quickly. Our scheme adopts the time domain that is well suited for Z-transform analysis and digital implementation. The main idea of the scheme is based on the definition of Grünwald-Letnicov fractional calculus. In this case some limited terms of the definition are taken so that it is much easier and faster to calculate fractional derivatives and integrals in the time domain or z-domain without loss much of the precision. Its effectiveness is illustrated by discretization of half-order fractional differential and integral operators compared with that of the analytical scheme. An example of designing fractional order digital controllers is included for illustration, in which different fractional order PID controllers are designed for the control of a nonlinear dynamic system containing one of the four different kinds of nonlinear blocks: saturation, deadzone, hysteresis, and relay.展开更多

It can effectively solve the difficult problems of single rod low friction cylinders, which are mainly caused by asymmetric structures and different friction characteristics in two directions. On the basis of this algorithm, a traditional PID control is used to improve dynamic performance. Furthermore, a new asymmetric fuzzy PID control with α factor is advanced to improve the self-adaptability and robustness of the system. Both the theoretical analyses and experimental results prove that, with this control strategy, the dynamic performance of the system can be greatly improved. The system using this control algorithm has strong robustness and it obtains desired overshoot and repeatability in both transient and steady-state responses.展开更多

Based on the control theory,the model of ORC evaporator is set up. The BP algorithm is used to control the Kp,Kiand Kdparameters of the evaporator PID controller,so that the evaporator temperature can reach the optimal state quickly and steadily. The M ATLAB softw are is used to simulate the traditional PID controller and the BP neural netw ork PID controller. The experimental results show that the Kp,Kiand Kdparameters of the BP neural netw ork PID controller are 0. 5677,0. 2970,and 0. 1353,respectively.Therefore,the evaporator PID controller based on BP neural netw ork optimization not only satisfies the requirements of the system performance,but also has better control parameters than the traditional PID controller.展开更多

Simulation results show that the process output variance is reduced by retuning controller parameters.
文摘A fuzzy control algorithm of asymmetric fuzzy strategy is introduced for a servo-pneumatic position system. It can effectively solve the difficult problems of single rod low friction cylinders, which are mainly caused by asymmetric structures and different friction characteristics in two directions. On the basis of this algorithm, a traditional PID control is used to improve dynamic performance. Furthermore, a new asymmetric fuzzy PID control with α factor is advanced to improve the self-adaptability and robustness of the system. Both the theoretical analyses and experimental results prove that, with this control strategy, the dynamic performance of the system can be greatly improved. The system using this control algorithm has strong robustness and it obtains desired overshoot and repeatability in both transient and steady-state responses.

文摘The principle of electric braking system is analyzed and an anti-skid braking system based on the slip rate control is proposed.The fuzzy-PID controller with parameter self-adjustment feature is designed for the anti-skid braking system.The dynamic model of aircraft ground braking is established in the simulation environment of MATLAB/SIMULINK,and simulation results of dry runway and wet runway are presented.The results show that the fuzzy-PID controller with parameter self-adjustment feature for the electric anti-skid braking system keeps working in the state of stability and the brake efficiencies are increased to 93%on dry runway and 82%on wet runway respectively.

文摘According to the problem that the selection of traditional PID control parameters is too complicated in evaporator of Organic Rankine Cycle system(ORC),an evaporator PID controller based on BP neural netw ork optimization is designed. Based on the control theory,the model of ORC evaporator is set up. The BP algorithm is used to control the Kp,Kiand Kdparameters of the evaporator PID controller,so that the evaporator temperature can reach the optimal state quickly and steadily. The M ATLAB softw are is used to simulate the traditional PID controller and the BP neural netw ork PID controller. The experimental results show that the Kp,Kiand Kdparameters of the BP neural netw ork PID controller are 0. 5677,0. 2970,and 0. 1353,respectively.Therefore,the evaporator PID controller based on BP neural netw ork optimization not only satisfies the requirements of the system performance,but also has better control parameters than the traditional PID controller.

文摘A plant-friendly proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller optimization framework is proposed to make tradeoffs among set-point response,controller output variations and robustness.The objective function is chosen as the weighted sum of the integral of squared time-weighted error and the integral of squared timeweighted derivative of the control variable with respect to set-point response,while the robustness of the system is guaranteed by constraints on gain and phase margins.Due to the complex structure of the constraints,the problem is solved by genetic algorithms.Simulation analysis show the proposed method could efficiently reduce the controller output variations while maintaining a short settling time.Based on the simulation results,iterative tuning rules for the weighting factor in the objective function are obtained,which allows efficient simple proportional-integral(PI) tuning formulae to be derived.
