In order to improve the stability of direct current (DC) microgrid with constant power loads, a novel virtual inductive approach is proposed in this paper. It is known that the negative impedance characteristic of constant power loads will lead to DC bus voltage fluctuation, which will be more serious when they integrate into the DC microgrid though a large transmission line inductive. For the convenience of analysis, a simplified circuit model of the system is obtained by modeling the distributed resources. Unlike the existing control strategies, the proposed control strategy constructs a negative inductance link, which helps to counteract the negative effects of the line inductive between the power source and the transmission line. Detailed performance comparison of the proposed control and virtual capacitance are implemented through MATLAB/simulink simulation. Moreover, the improved performance of the proposed control method has been further validated with several detailed studies. The results demonstrate the feasibility and superiority of the proposed strategy.

Due to the uncertainty of the power load and the randomness of distributed generations, low-voltage direct current (LVDC) bus voltage fluctuation will greatly affect the safety of an energy router-enabled direct current (DC) microgrid. In this paper, a power feedforward control strategy based on a dual active bridge (DAB) DC/DC converter in an energy router-based DC Microgrid is proposed. Based on this strategy, the LVDC bus voltage is controlled by virtual inertia control of the DC microgrid, instead of by the DAB converter. Thus, two benefits of the proposed strategy can be achieved: the power feedforward control can be realized, to mitigate the voltage fluctuation range of the LVDC bus; and the modulation algorithm in the DAB converter can be simplified. Experimental results verify the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed control method.

In this paper, a novel fractional-order control strategy for the SCARA robot is developed. The proposed control is composed of [Formula: see text] and a fractional-order passivity-based adaptive controller, based on the Caputo–Fabrizio and Atangana–Baleanu derivatives, respectively; both controls are robust to external disturbances and change in the desired trajectory and effectively enhance the performance of robot manipulator. The fractional-order dynamic model of the robot manipulator is obtained by using the Euler–Lagrange formalism, as well as the model of the induction motors which are the actuators that drive their joints. Through simulations results, the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed control strategy have been demonstrated. The performance of the fractional-order proposed control method is compared with its integer-order counterpart, composed of the PI controller and the conventional passivity-based adaptive controller, reported in the literature. The performance comparison results demonstrate the superiority and effectiveness of the fractional-order proposed control strategy for a SCARA robot manipulator.
