Article Model-free output feedback controller design for twin rotor systems(Muğla Sıtkı Koçman Üniversitesi, 2020) Deniz, Meryem; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Bayrak, AlperIn this work, tracking control of twin rotor systems is aimed. The control problem is restricted by the lack ofmathematical model of the twin rotor and further complicated by the unavailability of the angular velocitymeasurements. A model–free controller in conjunction with a high gain observer is designed. Experiments performed on atwin rotor system demonstrates the viability of the controller–observer couple.Conference Object A New Continuous Velocity Observer Formulation for a Class of Uncertain Nonlinear Mechanical Systems(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2015) Bayrak, Alper; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroǧlu, Erkan; Deniz, MeryemIn this study, we present a smooth robust velocity observer for a class of uncertain nonlinear mechanical systems. The smoothness of the observers is guaranteed by utilizing hyperbolic tangent function as opposed to signum-type functions applied in most robust and sliding mode observers found in the literature. The proposed observer does not require a priori knowledge of an upper bound of the uncertain system dynamics and introduces a time-varying observer gain for uncertainty compensation. Practical stability of the observer error is ensured via Lyapunov-type stability analysis. Numerical simulation studies backed up by experimental results are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed observer.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1İnsan el derisi özelliklerinin kutuplamalı ışık görüntülemesi ile incelenmesi(IEEE, 2010) Öztürk, Yavuz; Engin, Mehmet; Engin, Erkan Zeki; Bayrak, AlperIn this study, the texture of skin on the back of the hand was investigated for men and women of different ages. The images obtained from superficially back scattered light at the parallel and perpendicular position of the analyzer for different wavelengths, were processed and quantitatively analyzed. At the end of the analysis, we observed that the skin textures have many different segments and the size and number of segments change with ages. Finally, we can say that the hand skin texture becomes less complex with age. ©2010 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Backstepping Control of Electro-Hydraulic Arm(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2018) Bayrak, Alper; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroǧlu, ErkanIn this study, positioning control of the electro hydraulic systems is considered. Backstepping control strategy is designed by defining an auxiliary error signal. The performance of the controller is investigated by conducting numerical simulations. From the simulation results, it is seen that the control objective achieved successfully. The performance is compared with PI controller via a comparison criteria and it is seen that the backstepping controller has better results in both error and controller performance aspects.Article Citation - WoS: 1Experimental Verification of Lead-Lag Compensators on a Twin Rotor System(De Gruyter, 2018) Deniz, Meryem; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Bayrak, AlperTwin rotor system is a laboratory setup resembling a simplified helicopter model that moves along both horizontal and vertical axes. The literature on control of twin rotor systems reflects a good amount of research on designing PM controllers and their extensions considering several aspects, as well as onsome nonlinear controllers. However, there is almost no previous work on design of lag-lead type compensators for twin rotor systems. In this study, by considering this open research problem, lag and lead type compensators are designed and then experimentally verified on the twin rotor system. Specifically, first, lag and lag-lag compensators are designed to obtain a reduced steady state error as compared with proportional controllers. Secondly, lead compensation is discussed to obtain a reduced overshoot. Finally, lag-lead compensators are designed to make use of their favorable properties. All compensators are applied to the twin rotor system in our laboratory. From experimental studies, it was observed that steady state error was reduced when a lag compensator was used in conjunction with a lead compensator.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 7Online Time Delay Estimation in Networked Control Systems With Application To Bilateral Teleoperation(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017) Çetin, Kamil; Bayrak, Alper; Tatlıcıoğlu, EnverThe problem of forward and backward time delays is significantly important for both control and feedback loop of networked control systems. These time delays give rise to latency in performance and thereby may destabilize the system. Therefore numerous methods have been proposed about time delay identification/estimation and compensation for networked control systems, especially for bilateral teleoperation systems. However, most compensation methods have been accomplished by considering offline time delay estimation for linear/nonlinear time delay control systems. In this work, we propose an observer based estimation algorithm for round trip delay which is the sum of forward and backward time delays for a 1 degree-of-freedom nonlinear bilateral teleoperation system. Via Lyapunov based stability analysis, global boundedness of the observer errors along with their ultimate convergence and the convergence of the round trip delay estimator to the vicinity of its real value can be guaranteed in the closed-loop system. Finally, simulation and experimental studies are carried out utilizing the last link of a PHANToM Omni Haptic device moving like a one-link robot in the vertical plane.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 28Citation - Scopus: 34A New Robust 'integral of Sign of Error' Feedback Controller With Adaptive Compensation Gain(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2013) Bıdıklı, Barış; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Bayrak, Alper; Zergeroğlu, ErkanIn this paper, a new robust integral of signum of error (RISE) feedback type controller is designed for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems. Unlike the previous versions of RISE feedback type controllers, the proposed controller does not require prior knowledge of upper bounds of the vector containing the uncertainties of the dynamical system plus desired system dynamics (and their derivatives) for the control gain selection. The aforementioned enhancement is made possible via the design of a time-varying compensation gain as opposed to a constant gain used in previous RISE feedback type controllers. Asymptotic stability of the error signals and the boundedness of the closed-loop system signals are ensured via Lyapunov based arguments. Numerical simulation studies are presented to illustrate the viability of the proposed method. ©2013 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Robust Adaptive Control of Nonlinear Systems With Unknown State Delay(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2013) Bayrak, Alper; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Bıdıklı, Barış; Zergeroğlu, ErkanIn this work, we propose a new robust adaptive controller for a class of multi-input multi-output nonlinear systems subject to uncertain state delay. The proposed method is proven to yield semi-global asymptotic tracking despite the presence of additive input and output disturbances and parametric uncertainty in the system dynamics. An adaptive desired system compensation in conjunction with a continuous nonlinear integral feedback component is utilized in the design of the controller and Lyapunov-based techniques, are used to prove that the tracking error is asymptotically driven to zero. Numerical simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. © 2013 IEEE.Conference Object Filter-based control for parallel plate micro electrostatic actuators(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2011) Salah, Mohammed H.; Bayrak, Alper; Tatlıcıoğlu, EnverIn this paper, a filter-based nonlinear control strategy for parallel-plate micro electrostatic actuators is designed. The proposed control technique utilizes the measurements of the micro actuator's movable plate displacement and the device internal charge. The information of the micro actuator's movable plate velocity is utilized as well in the control synthesis but since it is difficult to be measured, filtered signals are designed and utilized to facilitate the control development. A Lyapunov-based analysis is presented which proves that a desired time-varying displacement of the micro actuator's movable plate is accurately tracked. The proposed nonlinear controller is capable of controlling the movable plate beyond the pull-in boundary that is one third of the capacitive gap. Representative numerical simulations are introduced to demonstrate the performance of the proposed filter-based nonlinear control strategy in accurately tracking the deflection of the micro electrostatic movable plate within the entire capacitive gap. Finally, a comparison with a standard PID controller is also presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control design. © 2011 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 4A novel online adaptive time delay identification technique(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2011) Bayrak, Alper; Tatlıcıoğlu, EnverIn this study, an online time delay identification technique is proposed. Different from the relevant literature, the time delay is considered as a nonlinear parameter and nonlinear parameter estimation techniques are adopted. The stability of the adaptive update law can be guaranteed via Lyapunov based arguments and numerical simulations are conducted to demonstrate the proof of concept. © 2011 IEEE.
