    Robust Control Design for Positioning of an Unactuated Surface Vessel
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015) Bıdıklı, Barış; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroğlu, Erkan
    In this paper, a robust controller is designed to achieve accurate positioning of an unactuated surface vessel by using multiple unidirectional tugboats. After initially locating opposing tugboats to specific configurations, the control problem is transformed into a second order system with an uncertain non-symmetric input gain matrix. Upon applying a matrix decomposition, a robust controller is proposed. Detailed stability analysis ensured asymptotic tracking. Numerical simulation results demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed controller © 2015 IEEE.

    Nonlinear Robust Control To Maximize Energy Capture in a Variable Speed Wind Turbine Using an Induction Generator
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2009) Iyasere, Erhun; Dawson, Darren M.; Wagner, John R.; Salah, Mohammed; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver
    The emergence of wind turbine systems for electric power generation can help satisfy the growing global demand. This paper proposes a control strategy to maximize the wind energy captured in a variable speed wind turbine, with an internal induction generator, at low to medium wind speeds. The proposed strategy controls the tip speed ratio, via the rotor angular speed, to an optimum point at which the efficiency constant (or power coefficient) is maximal for a particular blade pitch angle and wind speed. This control method allows for aerodynamic rotor power maximization without exact wind turbine model knowledge.
