Switching Control Method for Optimal State Feedback Controller of Nuclear Reactor Power System

Due to the nonlinearity of the reactor power system, the load tracking situation is closely related to the initial steady-state power and the final steady-state power after the introduction of the state feedback controller. Therefore, when the initial power and the final stable power are determined, the particle swarm optimization algorithm is used to find the optimal controller parameters to minimize the load tracking error. Since there are many combinations of initial stable power and final stable power, it is not possible to find the optimal controller parameters for all combinations, so the neural network is used to take the final stable power and the initial stable power as input, and the optimal controller parameters as the output. This method obtains the optimal state feedback controller switching control method can achieve a very excellent load tracking effect in the case of continuous power change, in the power change time point, the response is fast, in the controller parameter switching time point, the actual power does not fluctuate due to the change of controller parameters. .

Design for aircraft engine multi-objective controllers with switching characteristics

The aircraft engine multi-loop control system is described and the switching control theory is introduced to solve the regulating and protecting control problems in this paper. The aircraft engine multi-loop control system is firstly described and the control problems are formulated. Secondly, the theory of the smooth switching control is devoted and a new extended scheme for the smooth switching of a switched control system is introduced. Then, for the key technologies of aero-engines switching control, a design algorithm is presented which can determine which candidate controller should be put in feedback with the plant to achieve a desired performance and the procedure to design the aircraft engine multi-loop control system is detailed. The switching performance objectives and the switching scheme are given and a family of PID controllers and compensators is designed. The simulation shows that using the switching control design method can not only improve the dynamic performance of the aircraft engine control system and reduce the switching times, but also guarantee the stability in some peculiar occasions.

Non-fragile switching tracking control for a flexible air-breathing hypersonic vehicle based on polytopic LPV model

This article proposes a linear parameter varying （LPV） switching tracking control scheme for a flexible air-breathing hypersonic vehicle （FAHV）. First, a polytopic LPV model is constructed to represent the complex nonlinear longitudinal model of the FAHV by using Jacobian linearization and tensor-product （T-P） model transformation approach. Second, for less conservative controller design purpose, the flight envelope is divided into four sub-regions and a non-fragile LPV controller is designed for each parameter sub-region. These non-fragile LPV controllers are then switched in order to guarantee the closed-loop FAHV system to be asymptotically stable and satisfy a specified performance criterion. The desired non-fragile LPV switching controller is found by solving a convex constraint problem which can be efficiently solved using available linear matrix inequality （LMI） techniques, and robust stability analysis of the closed-loop FAHV system is verified based on multiple Lypapunov functions （MLFs）. Finally, numerical simulations have demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Near-Optimal Controls of Differential Systems with Switching and Random Jumps Subject to Fast Switching and Wideband Noise Perturbation

This work develops near-optimal controls for systems given by differential equations with wideband noise and random switching.The random switching is modeled by a continuous-time,time-inhomogeneous Markov chain.Under broad conditions,it is shown that there is an associated limit problem,which is a switching jump diffusion.Using near-optimal controls of the limit system,we then build controls for the original systems.It is shown that such constructed controls are nearly optimal.

Adaptive robust control of nonholonomic systems with stochastic disturbances

This paper deals with nonholonomic systems in chained form with unknown covariance stochastic disturbances The objective is to design the almost global adaptive asymptotical controllers in probability Uo and u1 for the systems by using discontinuous control. A switching control law Uo is designed to almost globally asymptotically stabilize the state x0 in both the singular Xo（t0）=0 case and the non-singular Xo（to）≠O case. Then the state scaling technique is introduced for the discontinuous feedback into the （x1, x2,…, xn）-subsystem. Thereby, by using backstepping technique the global adaptive asymptotical control law u1 has been presented for （x1, x2, …, xn） -subsystem for both different Uo in non-singular x0 （t0）≠0 case and the singular case X0 （t0）=0. The control algorithm validity is proved by simulation.
