  1. 1. Relay Feedback and Multivariable Control

    Author : Karl Henrik Johansson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; robotics; Automation; Frequency methods; Process control; Sequential control; Automatic tuning; Control education; Laboratory process; Performance limitations; Decentralized control; Multivariable zero; Multivariable systems; Hybrid control; Nonlinear dynamics; Limit cycles; Oscillations; Relay feedback; Sliding modes; control engineering; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

    Abstract : This doctoral thesis treats three issues in control engineering related to relay feedback and multivariable control systems. Linear systems with relay feedback is the first topic. Such systems are shown to exhibit several interesting behaviors. READ MORE

  2. 2. Active Control of Propeller-Induced Noise in Aircraft : Algorithms & Methods

    Author : Sven Johansson; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; active control of sound; active noise control; anc; actuator individual normalized filtered-x lms; filtered-x lms algorithm; newton algorithm; complex lms; multireference algorithm; leaky lms; control effort weighting; feedforward control; feedback contro;

    Abstract : In the last decade acoustic noise has become more and more regarded as a problem. In cars, boats, trains and aircraft, low-frequency noise reduces comfort. Lightweight materials and more powerful engines are used in high-speed vehicles, resulting in a general increase in interior noise levels. READ MORE

    Abstract : This thesis studies some output feedback control laws. Particularly, iterative learning control (ILC) and decentralized network based algorithms are studied. Applications to control of wastewater treatment plants are outlined. READ MORE

  4. 4. On Modeling and Control of Flexible Manipulators

    Author : Stig Moberg; Svante Gunnarsson; Anders Robertsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; System identification; multivariable systems; differential-algebraic equations; robots; manipulators; flexible structures; robustness; position control; nonlinear systems; closed-loop identification; frequency-response methods; industrial robots; robotics; control; feedforward; flexible arms; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : Industrial robot manipulators are general-purpose machines used for industrial automation in order to increase productivity, flexibility, and quality. Other reasons for using industrial robots are cost saving, and elimination of heavy and health-hazardous work. READ MORE

  5. 5. Tools for Autonomous Process Control

    Author : Anders Wallén; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sequential control; software architectures; fast set point response; spectral estimation; frequency domain identification; relay feedback; non-linear system identification; Autonomous Control; Process Control; Grafcet; Automation; robotics; control engineering; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

    Abstract : There is an ongoing trend towards higher automation level in process control systems. The purpose of a plant is to manufacture some product at a high production rate with a consistent quality, while minimizing the use of resources in terms of energy consumption, raw material and labor.
