FEEDBACK CONTROL DESIGN USING TEMPLATE BOUNDARIES FOUND THROUGH A PRUNING ALGORITHM FOR PLANTS WITH PARAMETRIC UNCERTAINTY

CORNEJO, GIANN CARLO

Abstract Details

2003, MS, University of Cincinnati, Engineering : Mechanical Engineering.
In the development of a robust feedback control design, plant parameter uncertainty is taken into account to generate system templates at various frequencies. A template is the representation of the plant parameter uncertainty at a particular frequency. Once these templates are defined, they are utilized to determine specific boundaries of plant operation over a prescribed frequency range. Subsequently, a scheme can be developed to design a controller which monitors the behavior of the system so that it performs within previously described specifications. This thesis will focus on the development of a pruning algorithm using MATLAB. The pruning algorithm goal is to define the boundary of the template through the identification of boundary plants in the system. The objective is to utilize these boundary plants of the system to generate templates at other frequencies of interest. This approach will be demonstrated by applying the method on a pneumatic position control servo system with three uncertain variables. Once the desired pruned templates for the pneumatic position control servo system have been attained, a controller is designed to enhance the system dynamic characteristics.
