    Non-Linear Control of Variable-Speed Wind Turbines With Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generators: a Robust Backstepping Approach
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2016) Şeker, Murat; Zergeroğlu, Erkan; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver
    In this study, a robust backstepping approach for the control problem of the variable-speed wind turbine with a permanent magnet synchronous generator is presented. Specifically, to overcome the negative effects of parametric uncertainties in both mechanical and electrical subsystems, a robust controller with a differentiable compensation term is proposed. The proposed methodology ensures the generator velocity tracking error to uniformly approach a small bound where practical tracking is achieved. Stability of the overall system is ensured by Lyapunov-based arguments. Comparative simulation studies with a standard proportional-integral-type controller are performed to illustrate the effectiveness, feasibility and efficiency of the proposed controller. © 2015 Taylor & Francis.

    An 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, Alper
    In 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.
