Using the wheelchair, the lower limb disabled persons could be more relaxed to take part in outdoor activities whether on flat ground or stairs and obstacles in the city. The wheel- track coupling mechanism is designed and the stability of the bodywork of the wheelchair robot on the stairs is analyzed. In order to obtain the stability of wheelchair robot when it climbs obstacles, centroid projection method is applied to analyze the static stability, stability margin is proposed to provide the stability under some dynamic forces, and the push rod rotation angle in terms of the guaranteed stability margin is given. Finally, the dynamic model of the wheelchair robot based on Lagrange equation is established, which can be a theoretical foundation for the wheelchair control system design.展开更多

The chaotic systems are redesigned by using the generalized Hamiltonian systems and observer approach. Based on Lya-punov's stability theory, linear and nonlinear feedback control of adaptive H∞ synchronization is established in order to not only guarantee stable synchronization of both master and slave systems but also reduce the effect of external disturbance on an Hoe-norm constraint. Adaptive H∞ synchronization of chaotic systems via three kinds of control is investigated with applications to Lorenz and Chen systems. Numerical simulations are also given to identify the effectiveness of the theoretical analysis.展开更多

A good electrode control algorithm will reduce energy consumption effectively and shorten smelting time greatly. The offline design online synthesis model predictive control algorithm is proposed for electrode regulator system with input and output constraints. On the offline computation, the continuum of terminal constraint sets will be constructed. On the online synthesis, the time-varying terminal constraint sets will be adopted and at least one free control variable will be introduced to solve the min-max optimization control problem. Then Lyapunov method will be adopted to analyze closed-loop system stability. Simulation and field trial results show that the proposed offline design online synthesis model predictive control method is effective.展开更多

The stability analysis of the proposed parametric estimation algorithm m-RLS is treated on the basis of a Lyapunov function. A numerical simulation example is used to prove the performances and the effectiveness of the explicit scheme of the proposed robust self-tuning control GMVSTC-a/.展开更多

A method based on the stability of a new operator D and the linear matrix inequalities is presented that makes it easy to calculate both the upper stability bounds and the free weighting matrices. Since the criteria take the time-varying delays and degenerate neutral systems into account, they are less conservative than previous methods. The Matlab LMI toolbox illustrates the impro...展开更多
