Charge feedback-based robust position tracking control for piezoelectric actuators
Salah, M. H.; McIntyre, M. L.; Dawson, Darren M.; Wagner, John R.; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver (Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2012-03)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 ... -
Nonlinear robust control to maximize energy capture in a variable speed wind turbine using an induction generator
Iyasere, Erhun; Dawson, Darren M.; Wagner, John R.; Salah, Mohammed; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver (IEEE, 2009)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, ... -
Optimum seeking-based non-linear controller to maximise energy capture in a variable speed wind turbine
Iyasere, Erhun; Salah, Mohammed; Dawson, Darren M.; Wagner, John R.; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver (Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2012-03)In this study, an optimum seeking-based robust non-linear controller is proposed to maximise wind energy captured by variable speed wind turbines at low-to-medium wind speeds. The proposed strategy simultaneously controls ... -
Robust nonlinear control strategy to maximize energy capture in a variable speed wind turbine with an internal induction generator
İyasere, Erhun; Salah, Mohamed H.; Dawson, Darren M.; Wagner, John R.; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver (Springer, 2012-05)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 ... -
Sensing of the time-varying angular rate for MEMS Z-axis gyroscopes
Salah, M. H.; McIntyre, M. L.; Dawson, Darren M.; Wagner, John R.; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver (Elsevier, 2010-09)In this paper, a nonlinear estimation strategy for sensing the time-varying angular rate of a Z-axis MEMS gyroscope is presented. An off-line adaptive least-squares estimation strategy is first developed to accurately ...
