This paper proposes a distributed coordination and control framework in combined alternating current (AC) and multi-terminal high voltage direct current (MT HVDC) power networks. The provably correct control strategy is designed to confront with exogenous disturbances, unknown load fluctuation and energy sources' contingencies and achieve desired control objectives in which AC frequencies are syn-chronized and power generation is shared among generators. A rigorous analysis of the control strategy is given. We also validate our proposed control scheme by a simulation.

The paper proposes a discrete-time sliding mode control (DSMC) tactic with unmatched uncertainties. A modified sliding surface is designed such that in the discrete-time sliding mode, the effect of unmatched uncertainties on the system trajectory is minimum. The performance of the proposed control strategy is verified through a simulation of a numerical example.

It is well known that the gain scheduled controller is effective for parameter-varying systems. By using parameter dependent Lyapunov matrix, the performance of the gain scheduled controller is significant. However, the controller gain is calculated by using the inverse of the Lyapunov matrix in ordinary linear matrix inequality framework. When the parameter dependent Lyapunov matrix is applied, the real-time computational burden for the inverse of the parameter dependent Lyapunov matrix cannot be ignored. In this paper, we propose a partly gain scheduled controller synthesis that requires less computational burden for the inverse of parameter dependent matrix. We choose sub-state variables to apply gain scheduling and synthesize a gain scheduling controller for the subsystem. It allows using a lower order parameter dependent matrix in the online calculation. After applying the local gain scheduling controller, we synthesize full state static feedback gain to stabilize the total system by using a parameter dependent Lyapunov matrix. By using a parameter dependent Lyapunov matrix to synthesize the static gain, we expect to reduce some conservativeness.

In this article, a generalized time limited Gramian based model reduction method is presented for unstable systems. The proposed approach is also applicable to a system if it has eigenvalues with opposite polarities and equal magnitude. The standard time-limited Gramians are extended for unstable systems by transforming the original system into a new system which involves the solution of two Riccati equations. The proposed approach is also illustrated by a numerical example.

In this paper, an H∞ filtering problem is considered for a class of networked control systems (NCSs) with randomly occurring multiple packet dropouts. A modified mathematical model is proposed which is able to describe the randomly occurring consecutive packet losses with known maximum number of the dropouts. Moreover, with the proposed model, the considered packet loss probabilities can be either the same or different. According to the mathematical model, an H∞ filter is designed for the considered NCSs with known maximum number of consecutive packet dropouts. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed H∞ filtering method.

We derive sufficient conditions for the existence of invariant sets for Lure nonlinear systems where the nonlinearity is not matched with the control input. The sector bounded non-linearity is represented as a time-varying parameterised linear function with bounded parameter variations, and the invariant sets are computed by embedding the nonlinear system into a convex polytopic LPV system. We show that the ‘matching’ condition for the nonlinearity can be relaxed for the case when the matrices associated with the nonlinearity satisfy a special relation. An example of a flexible manipulator is provided to illustrate the results.

Many chemical processes have timescale multiplicity arising from the coupling between different physico-chemical phenomena. A direct application of classical moving horizon estimation (MHE) to multi-timescale processes may require a long estimation horizon, leading to a high computational load. In this work, we explore a modified MHE scheme where output measurements are selectively chosen based on process dynamics to be used in the MHE optimization problem. This allows the MHE to cover measurements in the distant past up until the latest available measurements without significantly increasing the computational complexity. Simulation studies have shown that the proposed approach provides similar accuracy of state estimation compared to classical MHE with a significant reduction in computational time.

This paper presents a new limited time interval impulse response Gramians (LTIRG) based model reduction method for single-input single-output (SISO) continuous-time systems. The proposed approach incorporates the time-interval Gramians with impulse response Gramians to preserve the input-output behaviour of the original system for the specified time interval. A numerical example is given to illustrate the proposed approach, and the results are compared with the standard techniques.

One of the main objectives for vehicle designers is to achieve flat, safe ride in any environmental conditions. When a vehicle is moving along the road it is exposed to vibrations in multiple axes and directions. Vehicle behavior is extensively investigated in reference to road imperfections that could be expressed as single step disruptions, like remote bumps on the road. A simulation model, previously designed, was already used to investigate vehicle behavior, when riding over the step inputs. This model is further upgraded and now can perform simulations of the scenarios when vehicle is subjected to continuous imperfections on the road, like long runs of the gravel road in the country areas. Vehicle behavior is analyzed for few, common, speed levels in such scenarios. We can achieve lover amplitudes of pitch vibrations driving with the certain speed, but far the best outcome is obtained when active suspension is applied.

This paper is concerned with cooperative control for distributed grid-connected PV system. A two-layer control strategy is adopted, while the upper layer is a cooperative control to organize all the PV units to work cooperatively with given power ratio and the lower layer is a tracking control for a single PV unit. The information communication between PV units is realized through the ring communication structure applied in the upper layer. By using a mixed sensitivity approach, the controller for each single PV unit has strong robustness. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by simulation in Matlab.
