Sustainable Power

Long-haul commercial vehicles provide the hotel mode with a desirable comfort cabin for drivers to have rest. During this mode, sustainable power requirement on the on-board battery asks for occasional engine-on/off to maintain the battery SOC level, neither deeply charged nor overcharged. With the conventional engine-only-driven powertrains, there is a great challenge to deliver smooth engine on/off processes during the hotel mode in order to maintain the cabin as quiet and vibrationless as possible. But for the electric hybrid powertrain system, such a challenge can be addressed with the involvement of the hybrid motor/generator (M/G) to achieve smooth engine crank and shutdown. Apparently it is feasible to control M/G to mitigate discomfortable vibrations inside the cabin caused by periodic engine shutdowns for recharging the battery. In this paper, a pole placement control (PPC) with application of the hybrid M/G is developed to dampen out this kind of adverse vibrations which are transmitted from engine/gearbox to the cabin through the chassis structure and cabin mounts. More specifically, the PPC uses the motor speed as a feedback control signal to create a desirable motor torque command so that the vibration transmission could be abated. In the end of this paper, field testing data from a prototype hybrid truck will be presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of this innovative PPC strategy.

Fuzzy State

Accurate modeling and efficient control of inverted pendulums have always been a challenge for researchers. So, the current research aims to achieve the following objectives: (I) proposing a comprehensive dynamic model for the inverted pendulums which accounts for the flexibility of the pendulum bar and (II) suggesting an appropriate supervisory fuzzy-pole placement control strategy for stabilizing the pendulum system. Using a Lagrangian formulation, the equations of motion are derived and linearized. Then, a state feedback controller with a reduced-order observer is designed to stabilize the system. Closed-loop simulations reveal that at least six modes shall be considered in the dynamic equations. To improve the quality of the transient response, a novel fuzzy system is developed for real-time assignment of the controller poles. Simulation results demonstrate that the control quality is significantly improved by adding a supervisory fuzzy system to the control loop. The developed approach for dynamic modeling of the system, and the idea of multi-level fuzzy-pole placement control architecture developed in this paper, may be successfully applied to improve the response specifications in other dynamic systems.

Pole Placement Control

Dead-zone in the valve degraded the performances of the Electro-Pneumatic Actuator (EPA) system.  It makes the system difficult to control, become unstable and leads to chattering effect nearest desired position.  In order to cater this issue, the EPA system transfer function and the dead-zone model is identified by MATLAB SI toolbox and the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm respectively.  Then a parametric control is designed based on pole-placement approach and combine with feed-forward inverse dead-zone compensation.  To reduce chattering effect, a smooth parameter is added to the controller output.  The advantages of using these techniques are the chattering effect and the dead-zone of the EPA system is reduced.  Moreover, the feed-forward system improves the transient performance.  The results are compared with the pole-placement control (1) without compensator and (2) with conventional dead-zone compensator.  Based on the experimental results, the proposed controller reduced the chattering effect due to the controller output of conventional dead-zone compensation, 90% of the pole-placement controller steady-state error and 30% and 40% of the pole-placement controller with conventional dead-zone compensation settling time and rise time.

This paper deals with the special replacement of the shift operator and its associated z transform by delta operator and ? transform, respectively. The aim of the paper is to clarify the role of zeros of discretized linear single input single output continuous-time systems modeled by shift and delta operators. In particular, the effect of zero dynamics on the control system design based on classical pole-zero assignment in the case of both operators is considered. The analysis is illustrated by simulation results.
