RBF Neural Network Based Correction Iterative Learning Control for Direct-drive Pump-controlled Clutch Actuator

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2020
Abstract This paper mainly focuses on the motion control of a novel direct-drive pump-controlled clutch-actuator system. The RBF neural network and iterative learning control method are combined to perform fast and accurate position tracking for dynamic nonlinear systems with high uncertainty. And the simulink and AMEsim co-simulation is

Current Tracking Adaptive Control of Brushless DC Motors

open access: yesInternational Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.
In this paper, the current tracking for Brushless Direct Current motors is approached considering uncertainty in the parameters of the motor's model. An adaptive control scheme to compensate electrical parameters uncertainty is proposed without requiring any knowledge of the mechanical parameters.
