In this paper, high order sliding mode observers are used to estimate tires longitudinal forces, vehicle side slip angle and velocities. Two types of high order sliding mode observers are used. A third order one is used to estimate the longitudinal forces, while for the estimation of the vehicle side slip and velocities, an observer based on the super twisting algorithm is proposed. Validations with the simulator ve-dyna pointed out the good performance and the robustness of the proposed observers. controller design for the braking is accomplished using a reduced state space model representing the movement of the vehicle center of gravity in the (X, Y ) plane. Driver's reactions are taken into account. The performance of the closed loop system is carried out by means of simulation tests.

A considerable amount of research has been done on the use of logarithmic quantizers for networked feedback controlsystems. However, most results are developed for the case of a single quantizer (either measurement or control signal quantization). In this paper, we investigate the case of simultaneous input and output quantization for SISO linear output feedback systems. Firstly, we show that the problem of quadratic stabilization via quantized feedback can be addressed with no conservativeness by means of the sector bound approach. Secondly, we provide a bound on the maximal admissible sector bound via a scaled H ¿ optimization problem.

Maintenance of the power generating facilities in due time is essential for economical and reliable operation of the power system. Economical aspects, which bring revenue, and technical aspects, which keep the power system above the desired level of reliability, have to be confronted and the cheapest solution, which complies with the strict technical limitations, has to be obtained. This paper addresses the problem of obtaining the optimal maintenance schedule for generating units. For this purpose, this paper discusses the mathematical programming method - Benders decomposition. After the brief description, an application of the Benders decomposition on the three Croatian hydroelectric power plants in a row on the River Drava is carried out.
Observations of the long-term geoelectric potential (LTGP) difference are presented in this paper. The data have been collected during a three-year (2004-2006) investigating period. Moreover, this paper constitutes a ...

In the world of control the enormous difficulties encountered in reaching satisfactory results with the design and implementation of controllers for Multi-Input/Multi-Output (MIMO) processes are well known, in particular; when the interactions can not be ignored. This situation becomes even more complicated when the control process exhibits non-linear and/or time-varying dynamic characteristics. Not uncommonly, system designers of industrial processes control have to face such complexities. This paper describes the experience attained by the authors in the design of a fuzzy control system for a reduction furnace in a nickel processing plant, which exhibits the above mentioned characteristics.

This paper investigates the stability of a variable-speed wind turbine operating under low to medium wind speed. The turbine is controlled to capture as much wind energy as possible. We concentrate on the mechanical level of the turbine system, more precisely on the drive-train with the standard quadratic generator torque controller. We consider the two-mass model for the drive-train, with the inputs being the deviation of the active torque from an arbitrary positive nominal value and the tracking error of the generator torque. We show that the turbine system is integral input-to-state stable.

This paper presents an alternative solution to simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) problem by applying a fuzzy Kalman filter using a pseudolinear measurement model of nonholonomic mobile robots. Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model based on observation for nonlinear system is adopted to represent the process and measurement models of the vehicle-landmarks system. The complete system of the vehicle-landmarks model is decomposed into several linear models. Using the Kalman filter theory, each local model is filtered to find the local estimates. The linear combination of these local estimates gives the global estimate for the complete system. The simulation results prove that the new approach results in more anticipated performances, though nonlinearity is directly involved in the Kalman filter equations, compared to the conventional approach.

This paper deals with an analysis of applicability, capabilities, benefits and pitfalls of using a virtual potential field approach to autonomously planning trajectories in non-communicating autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV-s). Virtual potentials represent an approach to this problem with cross-layer design features. Examples of different layers of control that can be achieved with the same fundamental approach are: obstacle-avoidance, energy-optimal trajectories, forming up with other moving agents, controlled formation fragmentation into well-posed sub-formation etc. This paper shows, on the basis of extensive simulated experiments, that such a trajectory planner based on virtual potentials, guarantees good extendibility, scalability and performance in a hard-real-time hardware-in-the-loop system.

This paper investigates the integral input-to-state stability property of passive nonlinear systems. We show that under mild assumptions, a passive nonlinear system which is globally asymptotically stable is also integral input-to-state stable. We illustrate the result by proving the integral input-to-state stability of the drive-train of a wind turbine with quadratic torque control.
