Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 13Predictor-Based Robust Control of Uncertain Nonlinear Systems Subject To Input Delay(Elsevier Ltd., 2012) Obuz, Serhat; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Çekiç, Sadettin Ç.; Dawson, Darren M.In this paper, a tracking controller is developed for a class of nonlinear systems subject to time delay in the control input, uncertainties in the dynamic model, and additive disturbances. The control development is based on a novel predictor-like method to address the time delay in the control input. Lyapunov based stability analysis is used to prove semi-global asymptotic tracking. © 2012 IFAC.Article Citation - WoS: 17Citation - Scopus: 19Sensing of the Time-Varying Angular Rate for Mems Z-Axis Gyroscopes(Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Salah, M. H.; McIntyre, M. L.; Dawson, Darren M.; Wagner, John R.; Tatlıcıoğlu, EnverIn this paper, a nonlinear estimation strategy for sensing the time-varying angular rate of a Z-axis MEMS gyroscope is presented. An off-line adaptive least-squares estimation strategy is first developed to accurately estimate the unknown model parameters. Both axes of a Z-axis MEMS gyroscope are then actively controlled utilizing an on-line controller/observer to facilitate time-varying angular rate sensing. The proposed nonlinear estimation strategy is developed based on a Lyapunov-based analysis, which proves that the time-varying angular rate experienced by the device can be estimated accurately. Two cases for angular rate are investigated which are time-varying and constant magnitudes. An adaptive controller/observer was also utilized for sensing the angular rate to investigate the performance of the proposed controller/observer. Representative numerical results are discussed to demonstrate the performance of the proposed nonlinear strategy in accurately sensing the applied angular rate. Overall, the proposed nonlinear controller/observer improves sensing the constant angular rate by 50% and the time-varying angular rate by 90% when compared with an adaptive controller/observer. © 2010 Elsevier B.V.
