Abstract

This paper presents the identification of liquid slosh plant using the Hammerstein model based on Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO) method. A remote car that carrying a container of liquid is considered as the liquid slosh experimental rig. In contrast to other research works, this paper consider a piece-wise affine function in the nonlinear function of the Hammerstein model, which is more generalized function. Moreover, a continuous-time transfer function is utilized in the Hammerstein model, which is more suitable to represent a real system. The GWO method is used to tune both coefficients in the nonlinear function and transfer function of the Hammerstein model such that the error between the identified output and the real experimental output is minimized. The effectiveness of the proposed framework is assessed in terms of the convergence curve response, output response, and the stability of the identified model through the bode plot and pole zero map. The results show that the GWO based method is able to produce a Hammerstein model that yields identified output response close to the real experimental slosh output.

Abstract

This paper emphasizes on the development of an appropriate closed-loop control strategy for traditional portable duodopa pump (PDP); thereby ensuring an automated drug infusion without wearing off. In particular, a sigmoid proportional integral derivative (SPID) controller is adopted to control the blood plasma level of dopamine. The parameters of SPID controller are tuned using the adaptive safe experimentation dynamics (ASED) algorithm. The efficiency of the suggested SPID-ASED is evaluated by concerning the convergence plot of the cost function, the amount of dopamine in the blood plasma (BP) of the patient, the statistical analysis of cost function, norm of error and norm of input, and time responses specifications. The simulation results show that the proposed SPID-ASED outperforms the standard PID controller in terms of better control accuracy with minimum overshoot and settling time.

Abstract

This paper proposes the data-based PID controller of flexible joint robot based on adaptive safe experimentation dynamics (ASED) algorithm. The ASED algorithm is an enhanced version of SED algorithm where the updated tuning variable is modified to adapt to the change of the objective function. By adopting the adaptive term to the updated equation of SED, it is expected that the convergence accuracy can be further improved. The effectiveness of the ASED algorithm is verified to tune the PID controller of flexible joint robot. In this flexible joint control problem, two PID controllers are utilized to control both rotary angle tracking and vibration of flexible joint robot. The performance of the proposed data-based PID controller is assessed in terms of trajectory tracking of angular motion, vibration reduction and statistical analysis of the pre-defined control objective function. The simulation results showed that the data-based PID controller based on ASED is able to produce better control accuracy than the conventional SED based method.

Abstract

Inertia phenomenon in steering vehicle is major factor that allow oversteering incident in which come from the insufficient steering and slip control over the vehicle itself. The efficient and robust control system is required to consider both precision and stability of the vehicle for better manuevering especially in cornering road. Therefore, this research has taken the initiative to contribute a better solution for vehicle control according to the mentioned problem and situation with a proposed robust super-twisting sliding mode control (ST-SMC) by simplified torque on wheel and steering angle input with decoupling lateral and longitudinal errors. This control technique approach to allow coping with the issue by reducing forces and inertia for optimum speed at the cornering period and with the almost precise steering positioning. The dynamic model of rack steering vehicle (RSV) is used as the model plant and the proposed control system is simulated for verification. The results shows that the proposed ST-SMC offers improved performance in terms of speed increase time and vehicle stability that gives impact to the RSV being skidded or collided to any obstacles during cornering period.
