Application of Model Predictive Control in Discrete Displacement Cylinders to Drive a Knuckle Boom Crane

2018

In this paper, two Discrete Displacement Cylinders (DDCs) are used to drive the boom of a knuckle boom crane. DDCs operate by connecting one of several available pressure levels to each chamber in order to produce different forces. A trade-off exists with such systems, between the accuracy of tracking and energy dissipation due to switching. A popular way to approach this problem is a Force Shifting Algorithm (FSA). However, in this paper, the trade-off is managed by use of a Model Predictive Control (MPC) algorithm. The tracking accuracy and energy efficiency of the MPC and FSA strategies for DDCs are compared to a PID strategy for standard cylinders. The comparison is obtained by use of a…

Model predictive control for continuous lactide ring‐opening polymerization processes

2020

International audience; Polylactic acid (PLA) is an attractive environment-friendly thermoplastic that is bio-sourced and biodegradable. PLA is industrially produced by the ring-opening polymerization of Lactide. This reaction is sensitive to drifts in the operating conditions and impurities in the raw materials that may affect the reaction rate as well as the polymer properties, which can be very costly in continuous processes. It is therefore crucial to employ a control strategy that allows recovering the nominal conditions and maintaining the desired properties and conversion level in case of drift. Three control strategies are discussed in this paper: Proportional-Integral controller (P…

An Adaptive Robust Predictive Current Control for Three-Phase Grid-Connected Inverters

2011

This paper presents an adaptive robust predictive current control (RPCC) for grid-connected three-phase inverters that exhibit zero steady-state current error. The error correction is achieved by means of an adaptive strategy that works in parallel with the deadbeat algorithm, therefore preserving the typical fast response of the predictive law. The resulting control adapts to any particular L or LCL filter by estimation of the resistive part of the filter. As a variety of the RPCC class of control, it offers the best tradeoff between robustness and speed. © 2009 IEEE.

Robust Predictive Control of a variable speed wind turbine using the LMI formalism

2014

This paper proposes a Robust Fuzzy Multivariable Model Predictive Controller (RFMMPC) using Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs) formulation. The main idea is to solve at each time instant, an LMI optimization problem that incorporates input, output and Constrained Receding Horizon Predictive Control (CRHPC) constraints, and plant uncertainties, and guarantees certain robustness properties. The RFMMPC is easily designed by solving a convex optimization problem subject to LMI conditions. Then, the derived RFMMPC applied to a variable wind turbine with blade pitch and generator torque as two control inputs. The effectiveness of the proposed design is shown by simulation results.

Fuzzy predictive controller design using ant colony optimization algorithm

2014

In this paper, an approach for designing an adaptive fuzzy model predictive control (AFMPC) based on the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is studied. On-line adaptive fuzzy identification is used to identify the system parameters. These parameters are used to calculate the objective function based on predictive approach and structure of RST control. The optimization problem is solved based on an ACO algorithm, used at the optimization process in AFMPC to calculate a sequence of future RST control actions. The obtained simulation results show that proposed approach provides better results compared with Proportional Integral-Ant Colony Optimization (PI-ACO) controller and adaptive fuzzy model pr…

Performances Comparison for a Rotating Shaft Suspended by 4-Axis Radial Active Magnetic Bearings via 𝜇 -Synthesis, Loop-Shaping Design, and Sub ( 𝐻…

2011

The control systems applied on active magnetic bearing are several. A perfect levitation is characterized by maintaining the operating point condition that is characterized by the center of stator coincident with the geometric center of shaft. The first controller implemented for this purpose is PID controller that is characterized by an algorithm that leads the amplifier to produce control current until the operating point condition is not reached, this is obtained by an integration operator. The effect of an integrator is essential but not necessary for a centered levitation for example in the robust control characterized by a dynamic model depended on plant of system so that it depends o…

A New Generalized Robust Predictive Current Control for Grid-Connected Inverters Compensates Anti-Aliasing Filters Delay

2016

In this paper, a new predictive control for grid-connected inverters is presented, which provides the best performance in terms of transient response and stability margins when analog filters in current sensing circuits are used. These filters are necessary to avoid aliasing in the A/D conversion process, which causes an important ripple on injected current into the grid and increases the total harmonic distortion. However, predictive controls are very sensitive to delays on the acquisitions, so when such anti-aliasing filters are used a reduction of stability margins is produced and the transient response is affected. The proposed predictive control allows to compensate the effect of the f…

PEM Fuel Cell System Model Predictive Control and real-time operation on a power emulator

2010

Fuel Cell Systems (FCS) seem to be among the most reliable devices to produce clean energy, although they still suffer for many problems, mostly related to the fragility of the Polymer Electrolyte Membrane (PEM). Particularly, this paper focuses on the oxygen starvation, that leads both a decrease of the FCS performance and a shortening in the FCS lifetime. The purpose is to use the Model Predictive Control (MPC) and its capacity of accounting for linear constraints for managing the air system without risking to damage the fuel cell. Two control inputs and no static feed-forward actions have been used. Results show that the MPC is able to avoid the oxygen starvation, even with a sudden incr…

LPV Predictive Control of the Stall and Surge for Jet Engine 1

2001

Abstract Predictive control of constrained LPV systems is applied to the model of the stall and surge control for jet engine compressors. The objective of the used technique is to optimize nominal performance while guaranteeing robust stability and constraint satisfaction. This is achieved by exploiting invariant sets and a receding horizon optimization procedure which provides on-line a non-linear correction to a gain-scheduled linear feedback designed off-line. A comparison with a contractive gain-scheduling control technique is also shown.
