    Charge Feedback-Based Robust Position Tracking Control for Piezoelectric Actuators
    (Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2012) Salah, M. H.; McIntyre, M. L.; Dawson, Darren M.; Wagner, John R.; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver
    n this study, the Coleman-hysteresis model is utilised in the piezoelectric actuator (PZTA) dynamic model and a non-linear robust control strategy is then developed to actively control the displacement of the PZTA effective tip. The proposed control technique is designed based on the partial knowledge of the hysteresis model while the mass of the PZTA is assumed to be uncertain. The piezoelectric charge measurement is utilised in the controller design to reduce the effects of the hysteresis. Lyapunov-based stability analysis techniques are utilised to ensure that a desired displacement trajectory is accurately tracked. Representative numerical results are presented and discussed to demonstrate the tracking performance of several desired displacement trajectories with different frequencies and amplitudes. Finally, comparisons with a standard PID controller and a sliding mode controller were performed to examine the effectiveness of the proposed control design. © 2012 The Institution of Engineering and Technology.

    Adaptive Output Tracking Control of a Surface Vessel
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2008) Lee, Dongbin; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Burg, Timothy C.; Dawson, Darren M.
    In this paper, the tracking control of a three degree-of-freedom marine vessel is examined. The novelty of this work is the transformation of the asymmetric inertia matrix into a symmetric, positive definite matrix. The asymmetry arises from the added mass common to practical surface vessels and creates a significant challenge for control design. The control design is further complicated by the parametric uncertainties in the dynamic model of the vessel. Two adaptive control schemes with a projection-based adaptation law are proposed: a full-state feedback controller and an output feedback controller. Both controllers are known to yield a uniformly ultimately bounded tracking result in the presence of parametric uncertainty. Numerical simulation results are shown to demonstrate the validity of the proposed controllers.
