An experimental evaluation of the combined model reference adaptive control (CMRAC) is presented in this paper. This adaptive control scheme was used to control a relatively complex process like the pH of a solution in a ...

A simple loop shaping technique is applied to design an optimal, robust feedback controller to reduce the interior noise of an acoustic cavity. It is a data-based technique that uses the measured plant response to tune the ...

Robust backstepping control of non-linear systems with derivation orders (commensurate or non-commensurate) lying at interval (0, 2) is proposed in this study. The stability and robustness properties are proved using a ...

Background:The history of Chagas disease control in Peru and many other nations is marked by scattered and poorly documented vector control campaigns. The complexities of human migration and sporadic control campaigns ...

This paper presents the analysis of the two control structures used in wind generation systems with permanent magnet synchronous generators, variable speed and fixed pitch, to determine which structure is most appropriate ...

The plant-wide control problem is a very important topic in process control. A particular control structure design will define (restrict) the future operability degree for the plant under study. Classical control policies ...

A power system uses control mechanisms to supply the continuous variations in demand, without difference between generation and demand and to deliver energy with minimum requirements of frequency, voltage and reliability. ...

Bearing in mind that cognitive control is a complex function that includes several processes, it is not clear exactly which ones deteriorate with age. In fact, controversial results have been found. For example, some studies ...

This paper presents the study and development of a sensorless control method for the Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) based on the estimation of back Electromotive Force (back-EMF). A vector control method is ...
