Complexity of online computation is a drawback of model predictive control (MPC) when applied to the Navier–Stokes equations. To reduce the computational complexity, we propose a method to approximate the MPC with an explicit control law by using regression analysis. In this paper, we extracted two state-feedback control laws and two output-feedback control laws for flow around a cylinder as a benchmark. The state-feedback control laws that feed back different quantities to each other were extracted by ridge regression, and the two output-feedback control laws, whose measurement output is the surface pressure, were extracted by ridge regression and Gaussian process regression. In numerical simulations, the state-feedback control laws were able to suppress vortex shedding almost completely. While the output-feedback control laws could not suppress vortex shedding completely, they moderately improved the drag of the cylinder. Moreover, we confirmed that these control laws have some degree of robustness to the change in the Reynolds number. The computation times of the control input in all the extracted control laws were considerably shorter than that of the MPC.

The Mathematical Model

Undesired noise and vibrations have a detrimental effect in many areas. Hence the control of vibrations has become a relevant technological challenge. Active vibration control of structures using smart materials especially is in vogue. It involves sensing the motion of the structure using sensors, generating a control signal using a controller and applying a control force on the structure using actuators. To design the control system of any vibrating structure, the mathematical model of the system is required. However, it is not possible, to theoretically construct the model of complex structures. On the other hand, it is relatively simpler to model such systems in an Finite Element (FE) environment like ANSYS©. This paper deals with the extraction of the mathematical model of a cantilever beam from its FEA model. This procedure of extraction is applicable to any mechanical system under dynamics study. Then again, the matrices thus formed are usually very large and require a lot of computational time to process. Hence an attempt is made to construct the reduced model of the system which approximates the actual model to the desired extent. In this paper, the full model of the beam is reduced by discarding those modes which do not contribute to the overall response on the basis of their dc gains in MATLAB©. It is found that the frequency and transient responses of the full and reduced models match closely. Hence the reduced model may be used to represent the system instead of the full model with reasonable accuracy. Design of controller is attempted using the theory of state and output feedback control laws. The controller is modeled by calculating the optimal control gain by formulating an algorithm to solve the equations involved. The transient and frequency responses of the controlled full model and reduced models are then plotted. The procedure for designing controller described in this paper may be extended to any real world system.

In the paper, the problem of forming and maintaining the small satellites formation in the near-earth projected circular orbits is considered. The satellite formation reconfiguration and formation-keeping control laws are proposed by employing the passivity-based output feedback control. For the complete nonlinear and time-dependent dynamics of the relative motion of a pair of satellites in elliptical orbits, new combined control algorithms, including a consensus protocol, are proposed and analyzed. A comparison of the control modes using the passivity-based output feedback control and the proportional-differential controller with and without the consensus algorithm is given. On the basis of the passification method, the algorithm is obtained ensuring the stable motion of the slave satellite relative to the orbit of the master satellite. To improve the accuracy of the satellites’ positioning, a consensus protocol based on measurements of the relative positions of the satellites is proposed and studied. Computer simulations of the proposed algorithms for options to construct formations are provided for two projected circular orbits of 8 satellites, demonstrating the efficiency of the proposed control schemes. It is shown that the resulting passivity-based output feedback control provides better accuracy than the PD controller. It is also shown that the use of the consensus protocol further increases the positioning accuracy of the satellite constellation.
