Article Citation - Scopus: 1A New Robust Controller Formulation for the Full–state Feedback Position Tracking of a Small–scaled Unmanned Model Helicopter(IFAC Secretariat, 2017) Bıdıklı, Barış; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroğlu, ErkanThis work focuses on the robust attitude tracking control problem for a small– scaled unmanned helicopter where the actual system inputs, namely the elevator servo input, the aileron servo input and the rudder servo input, are used in the controller formulation. The design process is divided into two parts. Initially the problem is transformed into a second order system with an uncertain non–symmetric input gain matrix by utilizing some reasonable simplifications for the rotor model under the hovering flight conditions. Then a novel robust control methodology is utilized via a matrix decomposition method. The stability of the overall system is ensured by Lyapunov type analysis where asymptotic position tracking is ensured. Numerical simulation results are presented to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed method.Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 15Compensating of Added Mass Terms in Dynamically Positioned Surface Vehicles: a Continuous Robust Control Approach(Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Bıdıklı, Barış; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroğlu, ErkanIn this work, we provide a tracking controller formulation for dynamically positioned surface vessels with an asymmetric added mass terms that affects the overall system dynamics at the acceleration level. Specifically a novel continuous robust controller is proposed for surface vessels that in addition to unstructured uncertainties in its dynamics, contains added mass effects in its inertia matrix. The proposed controller compensates the overall system uncertainties while ensuring asymptotic tracking by utilizing the knowledge of the leading principal minors of the input gain matrix. Stability of the closed–loop system and asymptotic convergence are proven via Lyapunov based approaches. Simulation studies are also presented to illustrate the viability of the proposed methodArticle Citation - WoS: 30Citation - Scopus: 35Robust Dynamic Positioning of Surface Vessels Via Multiple Unidirectional Tugboats(Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Bıdıklı, Barış; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroğlu, ErkanIn this paper, the problem of accurate positioning of an unactuated surface vessel by using multiple uni-directional tugboats is investigated. Specifically a robust controller that ensures asymptotic position tracking is designed. The control design procedure is implemented in two steps: Initially by locating opposing tugboats to specific configurations, the overall problem is transformed into a second order system with an uncertain non-symmetric input gain matrix. Then via a matrix decomposition, a novel robust controller methodology is proposed. The stability of the overall system is ensured via rigorous stability analysis where asymptotic position tracking is ensured. Numerical simulation results are presented to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed controller.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5An Asymptotically Stable Robust Controller Formulation for a Class of Mimo Nonlinear Systems With Uncertain Dynamics(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2016) Bıdıklı, Barış; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroğlu, Erkan; Bayrak, AlperIn this work, we present a novel continuous robust controller for a class of multi-input/multi-output nonlinear systems that contains unstructured uncertainties in their drift vectors and input matrices. The proposed controller compensates uncertainties in the system dynamics and achieves asymptotic tracking while requiring only the knowledge of the sign of the leading principal minors of the input gain matrix. A Lyapunov-based argument backed up with an integral inequality is applied to prove the asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system. Simulation results are presented to illustrate the viability of the proposed method.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 5Robust Control Design for Positioning of an Unactuated Surface Vessel(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015) Bıdıklı, Barış; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroğlu, ErkanIn this paper, a robust controller is designed to achieve accurate positioning of an unactuated surface vessel by using multiple unidirectional tugboats.

The drawback of these type of controllers however, are (i) the need of prior knowledge of the upper bounds of the system uncertainties and (ii) the absence of a proper gain tuning methodology. To tackle the aforementioned weaknesses, in our previous work [1] we have presented a RISE formulation with a time-varying compensation gain to cope for the need of upper bound of the uncertain system. In this study, we have extended our previous design to obtain a fully self tuning RISE feedback formulation. Lyapunov based arguments are applied to prove overall system stability and extensive numerical simulation studies are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed method. © 2014 American Automatic Control Council.
