A composite PD and sliding mode neural network (NN)-based adaptive controller, for robotic manipulator trajectory tracking, is presented in this paper. The designed neural networks are exploited to approximate the robotics dynamics nonlinearities, and compensate its effect and this will enhance the performance of the filtered error based PD and sliding mode controller. Lyapunov theorem has been used to prove the stability of the system and the tracking error boundedness. The augmented Lyapunov function is used to derive the NN weights learning law. To reduce the effect of breaching the NN learning law excitation condition due to external disturbances and measurement noise; a modified learning law is suggested based on e-modification algorithm. The controller effectiveness is demonstrated through computer simulation of cylindrical robot manipulator.
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), have enormous important application in many fields. Quanser three degree of freedom (3-DOF) helicopter is a benchmark laboratory model for testing and validating the validity of various flight control algorithms. The elevation control of a 3-DOF helicopter is a complex task due to system nonlinearity, uncertainty and strong coupling dynamical model. In this paper, an RBF neural network model reference adaptive controller has been used, employing the grate approximation capability of the neural network to match the unknown and nonlinearity in order to build a strong MRAC adaptive control algorithm. The control law and stable neural network updating law are determined using Lyapunov theory.
A model reference adaptive control of condenser and deaerator of steam power plant is presented. A fuzzy-neural identification is constructed as an integral part of the fuzzy-neural controller. Both forward and inverse identification is presented. In the controller implementation, the indirect controller with propagating the error through the fuzzy-neural identifier based on Back Propagating Through Time (BPTT) learning algorithm as well as inverse control structure are proposed. Simulation results are achieved using Multi Input-Multi output (MIMO) type of fuzzy-neural network. Robustness of the plant is detected by including several tests and observations.
In this paper, a combined RBF neural network sliding mode control and PD adaptive tracking controller is proposed for controlling the directional heading course of a ship. Due to the high nonlinearity and uncertainty of the ship dynamics as well as the effect of wave disturbances a performance evaluation and ship controller design is stay difficult task. The Neural network used for adaptively learn the uncertain dynamics bounds of the ship and their output used as part of the control law moreover the PD term is used to reduce the effect of the approximation error inherited in the RBF networks. The stability of the system with the combined control law guaranteed through Lyapunov analysis. Numeric simulation results confirm the proposed controller provide good system stability and convergence.
This paper presents a new strategy for controlling induction motors with unknown parameters. Using a simple linearized model of induction motors, we design robust adaptive controllers and unknown parameters update laws. The control design and parameters estimators are proved to have global stable performance against sudden load variations. All closed loop signals are guaranteed to be bounded. Simulations are performed to show the efficacy of the suggested scheme.
