Structure and Morphology Control in Polymer Forming Through the Thermal History
2011
Two examples of the application of the Continuous Cooling Transformation (CCT) method for investigating polymer solidification under processing conditions are illustrated. One example concerns the solidification behaviour of syndiotactic polystyrene (sPS) from the melt, showing an anomalous trend of density versus cooling rate, exhibiting a minimum around 1 °C/s. Once phase composition is obtained from WAXD deconvolution, density can be closely predicted, its minimum depending on the competition among crystalline phases upon increasing cooling rate. Another example regards the formation of Poly-Left Lactic Acid (PLLA) foams via Thermally Induced Phase Separation (TIPS) by starting from ther…
Fuzzy Variable Structure Control for Uncertain Systems with Disturbance
2012
Published version of an article from the journal: Mathematical Problems in Engineering. Also available from the publisher:http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2012/105074 This paper focuses on the fuzzy variable structure control for uncertain systems with disturbance. Specifically, the fuzzy control is introduced to estimate the control disturbance, the switching control is included to compensate for the approximation error, and they possess the characteristic of simpleness in design and effectiveness in attenuating the control chattering. Some typical numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness and advantage of the fuzzy variable structure controller proposed.
Robust H∞ sliding mode control with pole placement for a fluid power electrohydraulic actuator (EHA) system
2014
Published version of an article in the journal: International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00170-014-5910-8 In this paper, we exploit the sliding mode control problem for a fluid power electrohydraulic actuator (EHA) system. To characterize the nonlinearity of the friction, the EHA system is modeled as a linear system with a system uncertainty. Practically, it is assumed that the system is also subject to the load disturbance and the external noise. An integral sliding mode controller is proposed to design. The advanced techniques such as the H ∞ control and the regional pole placement are employed to derive t…
Fuzzy dynamic sliding mode control design for high order disturbed systems
2013
In this paper, the problem of fuzzy dynamic sliding mode control design is investigated for a class of disturbed systems. Specifically, the fuzzy controller is constructed based on one feedback signal to estimate the unknown nonlinear terms and to develop the sliding mode control according to the fuzzy rules. Furthermore, it possesses the characteristic of simplicity in design and effectiveness in attenuating chattering. Finally, a numerical example is included to demonstrate the effectiveness and advantage of the proposed method.
Soft variable structure controller design for singular systems
2015
Abstract A novel soft variable structure control (SVSC) scheme is addressed for a class of singular systems under I-controllable in this paper. The structural features of SVSC with differential equations are investigated. The stability of singular systems based on SVSC scheme is guaranteed by an equivalent characterization theory, and then a soft variable structure controller is designed. The concrete algorithm of SVSC with differential equations is proposed. The developed SVSC law for singular systems is carried out for the purpose of achieving rapid regulative rate, and shortening arrival time. Moreover, system chattering can be attenuated in the process of approaching to the equilibrium …
