Control of interconnected systems with sensor delay based on decentralized adaptive neural dynamic surface method Proc. Inst. Mech. Eng. Part I J. Syst. Control Eng. (IF 1.101) Pub Date : 2020-10-30 Barmak Beigzadehnoe, Zahra Rahmani, Alireza Khosravi, Behrooz Rezaie
In this article, an adaptive neural network is proposed for the tracking control problem of unknown nonlinear interconnected systems with inaccessible states and sensor delays based on dynamic surface strategy. The system has unknown nonlinearities and immeasurable states. Thus, a neural network state observer based on delayed outputs of subsystems is applied. The main difficulty in obtaining local

Data-driven performance assessment of multivariable control loops using a modified Hurst exponent–based index Proc. Inst. Mech. Eng. Part I J. Syst. Control Eng. (IF 1.101) Pub Date : 2020-10-26 Maryam Khosroshahi, Javad Poshtan
Control system performance assessment is significant, especially in practical applications. One of the most important indices for the performance assessment of control systems is minimum variance. Calculating the minimum variance index in multivariate systems requires prior knowledge of system parameters and models, and is therefore an obstacle in practical applications. In this article, an index is

Event-triggered asynchronous H∞ fault-tolerant control for discrete-time Markov jump system with actuator faults Proc. Inst. Mech. Eng. Part I J. Syst. Control Eng. (IF 1.101) Pub Date : 2020-10-25 Ai-Min Wang, Jian-Ning Li
This article focuses on the design of event-triggered asynchronous H∞ fault-tolerant controller for Markov jump system subject to actuator faults and external disturbances. The asynchronization phenomenon not only occurs between the controlled system and controller but also exists between the controlled system and faulty actuator, which are portrayed as two corresponding hidden Markov models. Moreover

Prediction of raw meal fineness in the grinding process of cement raw material: A two-dimensional convolutional neural network prediction method Proc. Inst. Mech. Eng. Part I J. Syst. Control Eng. (IF 1.101) Pub Date : 2020-10-24 Gang Liu, Zhiyong Ouyang, Xiaochen Hao, Xin Shi, Lizhao Zheng, Yantao Zhao
Raw meal fineness is the percentage content of 80 µm sieving residue after the cement raw material is ground. The accurate prediction of raw meal fineness in the vertical mill system is very helpful for the operator to control the vertical mill. However, due to the complexity of the industrial environment, the process variables have coupling, time-varying delay and nonlinear characteristics in the

Simultaneous localization and mapping navigation of unmanned ground vehicle based on second-order smooth variable structure filter with improved technique to combat fading for advanced wireless communications Proc. Inst. Mech. Eng. Part I J. Syst. Control Eng. (IF 1.101) Pub Date : 2020-10-24 Abdelkader Mosbah, Fethi Demim, Ali Mansoul, Mustapha Benssalah, Abdelkrim Nemra
Simultaneous localization and mapping is very essential for autonomous navigation when the mobile robot is navigating in unknown environment without a global positioning system. Various techniques to solve the simultaneous localization and mapping problem have been extensively studied using the combination of low-cost sensors. Most of the work in mobile robotics still consists of finding solutions

Nonlinear dynamic modeling and fluid–mechanism interaction analysis of reciprocating pump–pipeline system Proc. Inst. Mech. Eng. Part I J. Syst. Control Eng. (IF 1.101) Pub Date : 2020-10-23 Zhenjie Gu, Changqing Bai, Hongyan Zhang
The dynamic characteristics of reciprocating pump–pipeline system are directly affected by the fluid–mechanism dynamic interaction related to the slider-crank mechanism, valves and pipes conveying fluid. In this article, the fluid–mechanism interaction and nonlinearities involved in the kinetic of slider-crank mechanism, the motions of pump valves and the dynamic transmission in pipeline are explored
