Design of Novel Exponential PDN Controller via Quadratic Interpolation Optimiser for Nonlinear and Unstable Ball and Beam System

open access: yesIET Control Theory &Applications, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This study presents a novel exponential proportional‐derivative controller with filter (exp‐PDN) for stabilising the nonlinear and underactuated ball and beam system. Unlike conventional PID‐based approaches, the proposed controller removes the integral term, resulting in faster transient responses and improved robustness.

Model reference adaptive control of a nonsmooth dynamical system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In this paper a modified model reference adaptive control (MRAC) technique is presented which can be used to control systems with nonsmooth characteristics. Using unmodified MRAC on (noisy) nonsmooth systems leads to destabilization of the controller.

Distributed fault‐tolerant control for high‐speed trains based on adaptive terminal sliding mode control

open access: yesIET Intelligent Transport Systems, 2023
Here, a distributed multi‐body dynamics model of high‐speed train (HST) with actuator faults is established. Based on this detail model, a non‐singular terminal sliding mode control method is designed for HST distributed fault‐tolerant control, and the ...

Research on Independent Reference Model–Based Anti‐Interference Control for Quadrotor

open access: yesJournal of Control Science and Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The quadrotor is vulnerable to internal model parameters uncertainty and external airflow. In order to guarantee that the quadrotor tracks the reference signal quickly and smoothly under the influence of external airflow interferences and internal parameter uncertainties, an independent reference model–based anti‐interference control algorithm was ...
