This paper investigates a virtual line shafting-based total-amount coordinated control method of multi-motor traction power to solve the traffic safety problem caused by train traction power loss. This method considers the total amount instead of the synchronous control amongst single motors in a multi-motor control system. Firstly, a block diagram of the proposed method is built. Secondly, on the basis of this diagram, an accurate system model with parameter perturbations is constructed. Thirdly, a virtual controller is designed to quickly adjust the output torque of the virtual motor and to realise a tracking control of the reference torque. A total-amount coordinated control strategy based on the integral sliding mode is also designed to keep the total traction power of the multi-motor system constant under uncertain and unknown disturbances. Lyapunov stability theory is used to prove the system stability. The simulation and experiment results verify the effectiveness of the virtual controller and the total-amount coordinated control strategy in guaranteeing system robustness under disturbances and parameter perturbations.

In this paper, a control system is designed for a vehicle active suspension system. In particular, a novel terminal sliding-mode-based fault-tolerant control strategy is presented for the control problem of a nonlinear quarter-car suspension model in the presence of model uncertainties, unknown external disturbances, and actuator failures. The adaptation algorithms are introduced to obviate the need for prior information of the bounds of faults in actuators and uncertainties in the model of the active suspension system. The finite-time convergence of the closed-loop system trajectories is proved by Lyapunov's stability theorem under the suggested control method. Finally, detailed simulations are presented to demonstrate the efficacy and implementation of the developed control strategy.

Setting up an exclusive left-turn lane and corresponding signal phase for intersection traffic safety and efficiency will decrease the capacity of the intersection when there are less or no left-turn movements. This is especially true during rush hours because of the ineffective use of left-turn lane space and signal phase duration. With the advantages of vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication, a novel intersection signal control model is proposed which sets up variable lane direction arrow marking and turns the left-turn lane into a controllable shared lane for left-turn and through movements. The new intersection signal control model and its control strategy are presented and simulated using field data. After comparison with two other intersection control models and control strategies, the new model is validated to improve the intersection capacity in rush hours. Besides, variable lane lines and the corresponding control method are designed and combined with the left-turn waiting area to overcome the shortcomings of the proposed intersection signal control model and control strategy.

A novel method of disturbance observer-based integral backstepping control is proposed for the two-tank liquid level system with external disturbances. The problem of external disturbances can be settled in this paper. Firstly, the mathematical model of the two-tank liquid level system is established based on fluid mechanics and principle of mass conservation. Secondly, an integral backstepping control strategy is designed in order to ensure liquid level tracking performance by making the tracking errors converge to zero in finite time. Thirdly, a disturbance observer is designed for the two-tank liquid level system with external disturbances. Finally, the validity of the proposed method is verified by simulation and experiment. By doing so, the simulation and experimental results prove that the scheme of disturbance observer-based integral backstepping control strategy can suppress external disturbances more effective than the disturbance observer-based sliding mode control method and has better dynamic and steady performance of the two-tank liquid level system.

In the coordinated control of multiple motors for heavy-haul locomotives, the input value for a motor often exceeds its maximum allowable input value, resulting in the saturation problem. A traction total-amount coordinated tracking control (TACTC) strategy is proposed to address the input saturation of heavy-haul locomotives driven by multiple motors. This strategy reduces control input and suppresses input saturation. First, a multimotor traction model with uncertain parameter perturbations and external disturbances was established. Next, a sliding-mode disturbance observer (SMDO) was designed to reduce the sliding-mode switching gain, thereby decreasing the control input. An auxiliary anti-windup (AW) system was used to weaken the effect of input saturation on tracking performance. Then, the observed value and auxiliary state were fed back to the sliding-mode controller to design a TACTC protocol and ensure that the total amount of traction torque follows the desired traction characteristic curve. Finally, the Matlab/Simulink simulation and RT-Lab semiphysical experiment results show that the proposed strategy can effectively suppress the input saturation problem of multimotor coordinated control.

The model of a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is nonlinear and dynamically unstable. A flight controller design is proposed on the basis of Lyapunov stability theory which guarantees that all the states remain and reach on the sliding surfaces. The control strategy uses sliding mode with a backstepping control to perform the position and attitude tracking control. This proposed controller is simple and effectively enhance the performance of quadrotor UAV. In order to demonstrate the robustness of the proposed control method, White Gaussian Noise and aerodynamic moment disturbances are taken into account. The performance of the nonlinear control method is evaluated by comparing the performance with developed linear quadratic regulator and existing backstepping control technique and proportional-integral-derivative from the literature. The comparative performance results demonstrate the superiority and effectiveness of the proposed control strategy for the quadrotor UAV.

Firstly a GFSM controller is used in order to make the linear and angular velocities converge to references ones in finite time. However a problem of instability of velocities is appeared by introducing disturbances in the system. Secondly, a combined controller using RBF-GFSM approach is applied in aim to stabilize the velocities errors and estimates the nonlinear function of the robot model. The system stability is done using the lyapunov theory. The proposed controllers are dynamically simulated using Matlab/Simulink and the simulations results show the efficiency and robustness of the proposed control strategy.</p>

In this paper, a hybrid fault-tolerant control strategy is putted forward to improve the stability of the four-wheel independent drive (4WID) electric vehicle with motor failures. To improve the handling performance of the vehicle with in-wheel motor failures, the faults of in-wheel motors are analyzed and modeled. Then, a model reference adaptive fault observer was designed to observe the faults in real-time. Based on the observation results, there are designed a model predictive control (MPC) based high-performance active fault-tolerant control (AFTC) strategy and a sliding mode control based high-robust passive fault-tolerant control (PFTC) strategy. However, the fault observation results may not always be accurately. For this circumstance, a hybrid fault-tolerant control strategy was designed to make the control method find a balance between optimality and robustness. Finally, a series of simulations are conducted on a hardware-in-loop (HIL) real-time simulator, the simulation results show that the control strategy designed in this paper is effectiveness.

This paper proposes an enhanced control strategy for mitigating state-transition oscillations in active and reactive power responses of self-synchronized converter system to secure the islanded power system stability. The self-synchronized converter is well known for “grid-forming” that is able to operate to stand-alone mode (SAM) providing grid voltage and frequency without phase synchronization units. Although the grid-forming (GFM) is self-synchronized, the inherent synchronization principle causes system degradation in which should maintain a point of common coupling (PCC) voltage for critical loads as well as transitions from grid-connected mode (GCM) to SAM and vice versa. Therefore, this paper focuses on resolving the inherent oscillatory issues in GFM self-synchronized converter system (especially adopted ‘synchronverter’ principle), and proposes a control strategy for controllability improvement based on stability analysis for smooth state-transition under islanded power system. The efficacy of the proposed control method is verified through a high-fidelity electromagnetic transient (EMT) simulation with case studies on 30kW synchronverter system and further experimental hardware-in-loop system (HILS) test with Opal-RT (OP-5707) platform.

We present a control strategy for nonlinear nontriangular uncertain systems. The proposed control method is a synergy between the dynamic adaptive backstepping (DAB) and integral sliding mode (ISM) and is referred to as DAB-ISMC. Our main objective is to find a recursive procedure to transform a nontriangular system into an implementable form that enables designing a control law which almost eliminates the reaching-phase. The proposed method further facilitates minimization of chattering which is believed to be a shortcoming of the sliding mode control. In this methodology, the ISM, as an integrated subsystem of DAB, is introduced at the final stage of backstepping. This strategy works very well to obtain a system that is robust against model imperfections, matching and unmatching uncertainties. The DAB-ISMC method is applied on a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) and simulation results obtained on Matlab are found to be very promising.
