  2. 1. Backstepping and control allocation with applications to flight control

    Author : Ola Härkegård; Torkel Glad; Marc Bodson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : backstepping; control allocation; flight control; control theory; nonlinear control; reglerteknik; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : In this thesis we study a number of nonlinear control problems motivated by their appearance in flight control. The results are presented in a general framework and can also be applied to other areas. The two main topics are backstepping and control allocation. READ MORE

  4. 2. Flight Control Design Using Backstepping

    Author : Ola Härkegård; Torkel Glad; Karin Ståhl Gunnarsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Aircraft flight control design is traditionally based on linear control theory, due to the existing wealth of tools for linear design and analysis. However, in order to achieve tactical advantages, modern fighter aircraft strive towards performing maneuvers outside the region where the dynamics of flight are linear, and the need for nonlinear tools arises.

  7. 5. Nonlinear Model-based Control of Automotive Powertrains

    Author : Jonas Fredriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; stability; diesel engine control; nonlinear control; gearshifting; air-to-fuel ratio control; drive- line oscillations; backstepping; powertrain modeling; powertrain control;

    Abstract : In recent years the focus of powertrain control has shifted perspective from control of the individual powertrain components to control of the complete powertrain, so-called integrated powertrain control. The idea presented in this thesis is to view the powertrain as one single control object and to used the engine as a torque actuator to the rest of the driveline. READ MORE
