Abstract:

Electromechanical systems dynamics analysis is approached through nonlinear differential equations and further creating a state space model for the system. There are three modules analyzed and validated, first module consists two magnet coupled with a mass spring damper system as a band-pass system, Low-pass equivalent system and Low-pass equivalent system through perturbation analysis. Initially Band Pass frameworks for the systems are formulated considering the relation between the mechanical forcing and current. Using Mathematical tools such as Hilbert transforms, Low-Pass equivalent of the systems are derived. The state equations of the systems are then used to design a working model in MATLAB and simulations investigated completely. The scope of the modules discussed for further development of tools various applications.

Abstract:

Internal combustion engines are the most commonly used engines in the automotive world. However, these engines lack an overheating prevention system against cooling system failures when they exceed their normal operating temperature. Less experienced drivers (users) usually do not notice overheating until the engine stops, generating economic expenses in engine repairs. As such, this paper describes the design and construction of an electromechanical device to prevent engine overheating. This device is installed in a vehicle and operates independently from the electronic control unit (ECU); it records the coolant temperature and controls air admission to the engine of the vehicle in which it is installed. In addition, a new Arduino-based card will receive signals from a temperature sensor as input and process them according to its programming. Then, it will send signal outputs to the actuators: A servomotor, monitor, LED display, and buzzer. To control the intake flow, a butterfly valve is used with the servomotor. This valve partially or totally restricts the engine airflow, based on the temperature programmed for the Arduino, thus protecting the engine from overheating.

Abstract:

The possibility to develop control systems for electromechanical actuators at Scania is studied, in particular the focus is on how to exchange the intelligent actuators used today with dumb ones. An intelligent actuator contains its own control electronics and computational power, bought as a unit from suppliers by Scania and controlled via the CAN bus. A dumb actuator contains no means of controlling itself and its I/O is the motor’s power pins. Intelligent actuators tend to have limited control performance, time delays and poor diagnose systems, along with durability issues. A dumb actuator could have the benefit of avoiding these disadvantages if the system is designed within the company. A literature study concerning the different types of electrical motors available and their control methods is performed, the most suitable for use in a heavy vehicle is deemed the brushless DC motor, BLDC. An intelligent throttle is chosen for a case study and has its control electronics stripped and replaced with new sensor- and control cards. The case study is used to investigate the possibilities and difficulties of this design process. A simulation model is developed for the electronics, motor and the attached mechanical system. With the aid of this model a controller architecture is designed, consisting of PI controllers with feed-forward and torque compensation for nonlinearities. The developed controller architecture is tested and in theory it can compete with the intelligent throttle’s performance. The model is also adapted to allow for code generation. The simulation model is used to study some common electrical faults that can effect the system and the possibilities for diagnosis and fault-remedial actions. The hardware prototype system shows that a current controller is necessary in the control architecture to achieve decent performance and the prototype is developed in such a way as to make future studies possible. The conclusion of the thesis is that Scania would be able to design control systems for dumb actuators, at least from a technical perspective. However more studies, from an economical point of view, will be necessary.

Abstract:

De nos jours, la plupart des véhicules sont équipés de Directions Assistées Electriques (DAE). Ce type de systèmes d'aide à la conduite permet de réduire les efforts que le conducteur doit fournir pour tourner les roues. Ainsi, grâce à un moteur électrique, la DAE applique un couple additionnel en accord avec le comportement du conducteur et la dynamique du véhicule. Il est donc nécessaire de développer une commande en couple basée en particulier sur le signal provenant d'un capteur mesurant le couple agissant au niveau de la barre de torsion (correspondant à une image du couple conducteur). Ce composant est donc essentiel au fonctionnement de la DAE. Or, une défaillance de ce capteur entraine le plus souvent une coupure de l'assistance, pouvant mener à un risque d'accidents. Au regard de la sécurité fonctionnelle, un développement d'un mode de sécurité est recommandé, par de plus en plus de constructeurs automobiles. D'autre part, le marché des équipementiers automobiles reste un secteur très concurrentiel où une baisse des coûts de production est un challenge constamment recherché afin de gagner de nouvelles parts de marchés. Cet aspect de réduction du nombre de capteurs et d'analyse de la dynamique du véhicule s'inscrit donc dans le prolongement de la stratégie de sécurité. Cette thèse, menée au sein de JTEKT Europe, aborde ces divers enjeux. Après une présentation des différents systèmes de directions assistés électriques, des modèles sont présentés pour être utilisés lors de la conception de lois de commande et d'estimateurs. Ensuite deux méthodes d'estimation du couple conducteur sujet aux perturbations de la route et aux bruits de mesures sont proposées : la première est un observateur proportionnel intégral (PI) à synthèse mixte $H_infty/H_2$, et la seconde une approche par filtrage $H_infty$. Puis plusieurs stratégies de commande sont proposées suivant deux cas de figures distincts, soit en utilisant un observateur PI qui estime les états du système et le couple conducteur (LQR, commande LPV par retour d'état), soit en faisant abstraction d'estimateur de couple conducteur (commande $H_infty$ par retour de sortie dynamique). Ce dernier aspect présente l'avantage de nécessiter moins de mesures que le précédent. Ces approches ont été validées en simulation et mises en œuvre sur un véhicule prototype où des résultats prometteurs ont été obtenus
Nowadays, modern vehicles are equipped with more and more driving assistance systems, among them Electric Power Steering (EPS) helps the driver to turn the wheels. Indeed, EPS provides through an electric motor, an additional torque according to the driver's behaviour and the vehicle's dynamics to reduce the amount of effort required to the driver. Therefore, a torque control is developed based on the torque sensor signal which measures in practice the torsion bar torque (corresponding to an image of the driver torque). Consequently, this component is essential to the functioning of EPS systems.Indeed, a torque sensor failure usually leads to shut-off the assistance which may increase the risk of accident. Regarding functional safety, a back-up mode is recommended and required by more and more car manufacturers. On the other hand, a major challenge for automotive suppliers is to reduce cost production in order to meet growing markets demands and manage in the competitive sector. This issue considering a reduction of sensors' numbers and analysis of vehicle's dynamics is therefore an extension of applying the safety strategy. This thesis, carried out within JTEKT Europe, addresses these various issues.After introducing an overview of the different EPS systems, some models used for the design of controllers and estimators are presented. Then, two methods to estimate the driver torque subject to road disturbances and noise measurements are proposed: the first is a proportional integral observer (PI) with mixed synthesis $H_infty / H_2 $, whereas the second is an $ H_infty $ filtering approach. Then, several control strategies are proposed according to two different cases, either by using a PI observer which estimates the system states and the driver torque (LQR, LPV feedback control) or by not taking into account the driver torque estimation ($ H_infty $dynamic output feedback control). This latter approach has the advantage to require less measurements than the previous one. These approaches have been validated in simulation and implemented on a prototype vehicle where promising results have been obtained

Abstract:

This thesis discusses the use of acceleration measurements in predictive control schemes for electromechanical positioning systems. The proposed method is intended to improve the tracking error while maintaining the controllability and the robustness of the' controllers. The influence of acceleration feedback on controllers and observers of predictive type is evaluated, and the results are compared with those obtained by classical control schemes, without this type of feedback. Multiple approaches are subsequently compared, from the classical PID, Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control, to Dynamic Matrix Control (DMC) with state feedback and DMC with acceleration feedback (DMC/AF) as well. The simulations and the experiments are done using the framework of MATLAB/Simulink and dSPACE computer packages, on an electromechanical positioning system (EMPS) with friction wheel used at the Cologne Laboratory of Mechatronics (CLM). A controller design suite using GUI developed to facilitate industrial implementation has been used for rapid testing of diverse schemes. The observers for non-measured states were of Kalman filters type. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

Abstract:

Wearable robotics for assistance and rehabilitation are not yet considered commercially mainstream products, and as a result have not yet seen advanced controls systems and interfaces. Consequently, the available technology is mostly adapted from systems used in parallel technologies, rather than custom applications intended for human use. This study concerns itself with the design and development of a custom control system for a 2-degree of freedom powered upper extremity orthosis capable of driving elbow flexion/extension 135º and humeral rotation 95º . The orthosis has been evaluated for use as both a long-term assistive technology device for persons with disabilities, and as a short-term rehabilitative tool for persons recovering injury. The target demographics for such a device vary in age, cognitive ability and physical function, thus requiring several input parameters requiring consideration. This study includes a full evaluation of the potential users of the device, as well as parameter considerations that are required during the design phase. The final control system is capable of driving each DOF independently or simultaneously, for a more realistic and natural coupled-motion, with proportional control by pulse-width modulation. The dual-axis joystick interface wirelessly transmits to the 1.21 pound control pack which houses a custom microcontroller-driven PCB and 1800 milliamp-hour lithium-ion rechargeable battery capable of delivering 4 hours of running time. Upon integration with the 2 DOF orthosis device, a user may complete full range of motion with up to 5 pounds in their hand in less than 7 seconds, providing full functionality to complete acts of daily living, thus improving quality of life.

Abstract:

Power electronic converters are extensively adopted for the solution of timely issues, such as power quality improvement in industrial plants, energy management in hybrid electrical systems, and control of electrical generators for renewables. Beside nonlinearity, this systems are typically characterized by hard constraints on the control inputs, and sometimes the state variables. In this respect, control laws able to handle input saturation are crucial to formally characterize the systems stability and performance properties. From a practical viewpoint, a proper saturation management allows to extend the systems transient and steady-state operating ranges, improving their reliability and availability. The main topic of this thesis concern saturated control methodologies, based on modern approaches, applied to power electronics and electromechanical systems. The pursued objective is to provide formal results under any saturation scenario, overcoming the drawbacks of the classic solution commonly applied to cope with saturation of power converters, and enhancing performance. For this purpose two main approaches are exploited and extended to deal with power electronic applications: modern anti-windup strategies, providing formal results and systematic design rules for the anti-windup compensator, devoted to handle control saturation, and “one step” saturated feedback design techniques, relying on a suitable characterization of the saturation nonlinearity and less conservative extensions of standard absolute stability theory results. The first part of the thesis is devoted to present and develop a novel general anti-windup scheme, which is then specifically applied to a class of power converters adopted for power quality enhancement in industrial plants. In the second part a polytopic differential inclusion representation of saturation nonlinearity is presented and extended to deal with a class of multiple input power converters, used to manage hybrid electrical energy sources. The third part regards adaptive observers design for robust estimation of the parameters required for high performance control of power systems.

Abstract:

This thesis is concerned with the use of all-electric systems for the closed loop position control of mechanical (valve) actuators. It embraces a wide range of topics including * the use of 3-phase induction motors and their speed/torque control using Pulse Width Modulation techniques * implementation of both analogue and digital (PID) controllers * Using computer simulation methods for the development of digital control algorithms and tuning techniques * the use of Computer Assisted Tuning methods for tuning up the position control loop. The major hardware activities described here are concerned with the design, development and construction of a 3-phase 115 volt inverter unit, an analogue controller, and interfaces to a single board microcomputer (SBC). The construction and test of the SBC is also described in the text. Details of the use of an analog controller to study and determine the transfer function of the inverter/actuator system is presented. Digital implementation of PID control (for actuator's position) by microcomputer is also described, together with the theoretical development of the control algorithm. Software activities consist of two major parts, plant simulation and software development for the microprocessor (embedded) controller. The derivation of a plant model from the results of on-line testing is given; from this a computer simulation is developed to study the effects of controller tuning parameters on the loop performance. Software development for the embedded controller covers Man-Machine Interfacing, tuning, and control functions. A new approach to the tuning of control systems is developed here, that of computer assisted tuning. Test results are given showing the effectiveness of CAT techniques for the tuning of the actuator position control loop; these tests also demonstrate the performance achieved using a digital PID controller. It is concluded that, provided plant parameters can be established, Computer Aided Tuning enables plant tuning to be carried out to meet specific performance targets (e.g. rise time, overshoot) set by the plant operator. Furthermore this can be carried out by a relatively unskilled operator.

Abstract:

The inherent advantages of the induction motor in variable speed drive applications can now be realised in a cost-effective manner as a result of recent advances in power electronics and microelectronics. This thesis is devoted to the advancement of the use of induction motors in variable speed applications, and describes the analysis, simulation and implementation of a variable speed induction motor drive. The state-space method lends itself as an ideal approach both for digital computer modelling and design of modem controller and was therefore adopted for the analysis and simulation of the drive system. The simulation was developed by means of a low cost personal computer package called MATLAB that has been designed to facilitate matrix operations. The use of such a specialized software package provided a 'user-friendly' operating environment with error messages identifying problem areas during program development. The resulted computer model of the drive system offers high flexibility and modularity and can be readily incorporated into further analysis and real-time controller design. Experimental results of the drive demonstrated good correlation with the model at both steady and transient states and the validity of the model is therefore confirmed. The experimental drive system was developed by means of transputers and its associated programming language occam. It was a flexible and comprehensive drive system comprising: (i) an on-line user interactive environment facilitated by the Transputer Development System; (ii) a 3-phase inverter bridge as the power conditioning unit; and (iii) a signal processing unit by means of a multi-transputer network system. The adoption of the transputer and occam enabled parallel processing to be achieved cost effectively in the drive system. The specifications of the drive system developed included on-line speed change, dynamic braking and programmable soft-start. Vector-control was also incorporated for good dynamic response. Experimental results of the specified functions of the drive are provided to confirm the proposed specifications of the drive. Further research areas on the present system are proposed, so that a viable industrial implementation may be contemplated.

Abstract:

This thesis is mainly devoted to the investigation of speed control methods of three phase, cage rotor induction motors with particular emphasis being given to vector control and direct torque control techniques. Modern control strategies such as vector control and direct torque control are investigated as well as the conventional methods such as open loop (constant V/f) operation. A number of different pulse width modulation (p.w.m.) waveform generation strategies are simulated and discussed and their application to the above speed control systems fully investigated. A 3kW, three phase induction motor drive has been designed and experimental data obtained from it in order to verify the results achieved by simulation. It is shown that direct torque control achieves decoupling of the motor torque and the motor flux without the use of a co-ordinate transform. A variation of the direct torque control algorithm has also been developed and implemented. It is shown, that by using different switching tables for the selection of voltage vectors, the performance of direct torque control can be further improved. Further insight into the nature of direct torque control has been gained from the study of the effect of the application of inverter switch settings, or the application of corresponding voltage vectors, on the motor flux and torque. It has been found that the range of torque variation of the motor drive system depends strongly on both the motor load torque and the motor speed. The results of the work reported indicate that the range of torque variation for a drive system which strongly depends on motor load torque and motor speed is considerably reduced by the novel direct torque control system resulting from the research. The control algorithms have been implemented on 32 bit micro processors which facilitate the use of parallelism in both the hardware and the software design. The resulting system is capable of controlling a three phase induction motor with variable voltage and variable frequency with control strategies such as six step operation, symmetric and asymmetric regular and natural sampled p.w.m. waveforms, sigma delta modulation methods, space vector modulation techniques, flux vector control and direct torque control.

Abstract:

With the penetration level of wind power in electric power networks increasing rapidly all over the world, modern wind turbines are challenged to provide the same grid services as conventional synchronous power plants. The dynamic interaction between wind turbines and grid has to be assessed first before replacing large amount of conventional power plants by wind power. Over the last few years many power system operators have revised their grid codes and established more demanding requirements for wind power connection. In the past, when wind turbines were small, they were allowed to simply disconnect during a grid fault/disturbance. However, as wind turbine size has increased considerably, their fault ride-through capability has to be improved if the penetration of wind power is to be further increased. Wind turbine design and control need to be improved to optimize the compatibility of wind power and the grid. Among the various requirements that wind turbines have to meet, fault ride-through is of great importance and a very challenging one. Grid faults cause transients not only in the electrical system, but also in the wind turbine mechanical system. The dynamic performance of wind turbines is determined by both mechanical and electrical systems. From the mechanical point of view, the grid disturbance adds extra loads on wind turbine components. Severe grid faults may even lead to wind turbine emergency shut-down. From the electrical point of view, wind farms may lose power generation during a grid fault, which deteriorates the fault impact and slows down the fault recovery. Advanced control and active damping is required to improve wind turbine operation and assist it to remain connected during a grid fault. The novelty of this research is the study of the interaction between mechanical and electrical systems of the wind turbine. The detailed modelling of both the wind turbine mechanical and electrical dynamics not only helps to identify possible problems that wind turbines encounter during grid faults, but also allows adopting a combined approach to design the wind turbine controller. This thesis aims at improving the wind turbine fault ride-through capability and the ability of wind turbine to provide network support during grid disturbances. The main contents are as follows: The detailed model of wind turbine and grid including wind turbine mechanical model, wind turbine controller, synchronous and induction generator model, doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) controller and a generic network model are presented; A wind turbine fault ride-through strategy considering structural loads alleviation is proposed; A controller for asymmetrical fault ride-through of DFIG wind turbines is presented; The effect of having Power System Stabilizer (PSS) on wind turbine is investigated. A multi-band PSS controller for DFIG wind turbine is demonstrated.

Abstract:

Brushless motors are increasingly popular because of their high power density, torque to inertia ratio and high efficiency. However an operational characteristic is the occurrence of torque ripple at low speeds. For demanding direct drive applications like machine tools, robot arms or aerospace applications it is necessary to reduce the level of torque ripple. This thesis presents an in depth investigation into the production and nature of torque ripple in brushless machines. Different torque ripple reduction strategies are evaluated and one reduction strategy using Park's transform as a tool is identified as the promising strategy. The unified machine theory is checked to clarify the theory behind Park's transform; in particular assumptions made and general validity of the theory. This torque ripple reduction strategy based on Park's transform is extended to include the effect of armature reaction. A novel adaptive torque ripple reduction algorithm is designed. The ineffectiveness of the conventional approach is demonstrated. Further a novel torque ripple reduction strategy using direct measurements of the torque ripple is suggested, reducing implementation time and allowing higher accuracies for torque ripple reduction. Extensive measurements from the experimental system show the validity of the novel torque ripple reduction strategies. The experimental results allow derivation of a formula for all load 111 situations. This formula makes it possible to further increase the reduction accuracy and enables improved real time implementation of the torque ripple reduction algorithm. The work presented here makes a substantial contribution towards understanding the nature of torque ripple in brushless motors and solving the associated problems. The novel reduction strategies form the basis for the development of intelligent dynamometers for motor test beds. Further the torque ripple reduction method presented here can be used to overcome manufacturing imperfections in brushless machines thus removing the cost for precise manufacturing tools. Future designs of controllers can "build" their own correction formula during set-up runs, providing a motor specific torque ripple correction. IV

Abstract:

The thesis is concerned with microprocessor-based control of a d.c. drive system using armature voltage control technique with a separately-excited, chopper-fed d.c. motor. The chopper circuit has a full-bridge configuration employing gate-turn-off (GTO) thyristors, and. is capable of four-quadrant operation, making the drive both reversible and regenerative. The control of motor speed is achieved by a completely digital technique, which does not require any analog-to-digital or digital-to-analog converters. A microcomputer, specially designed and built, generates the triggering signals for the GTO's by using the unipolar switching strategy, which is accomplished totally by software using look-up tables.

Abstract:

In this master thesis the dynamics of a modern main battle tank's turret traverse and gun elevation have been modelled. The models of dynamic motion have been coupled to two different types of electric motors, namely a direct-current motor and an induction motor. These have been modelled in MATLAB and SIMULINK together with the mechanical systems in the turret traverse and gun elevation. The goal of this project was to develop non-ideal models of the combined mechanical and electrical systems, but the main focus has been the dynamics of the electric motors.
I denna examensavhandling har modeller av elektriska motorer som driver tornet samt elevation av eldröret på en stridsvagn tagits fram. De två motorer som undersökts är en likströmsmotor och en induktionsmotor. Dessa har kopplats till mekaniska system som representerar rotation av stridsvagnens torn och elevation av eldröret. Modelleringen har gjorts i MATLAB och SIMULINK. Målet med denna studie var att ta fram icke-ideala modeller av både de elektriska motorerna och de mekaniska systemen för torn- och eldrörsdrift.

Abstract:

A single doubly-fed induction machine (SDFM) is a wound rotor induction machine with the stator connected to a supply network and the rotor fed by a bi-directional converter. A cascaded doubly-fed induction machine (CDFM) is a. connection of two wound rotor induction machines with the rotors connected electrically and mechanically thus avoiding brushes. One stator is connected to the supply network and the other is fed by a bidirectional converter. Both schemes, the SDFM and the CDFM, have in common that the VA-rating of the power converter is reduced compared to a singly-fed system. This thesis presents investigations of the field oriented control for the SDFM and the CDFM. - After reviewing and categorising doubly-fed machines a thorough steady state analysis and stator flux oriented control treatment of the SDFM is presented. Although the steady state analysis and the field oriented control of a SDFM is well established it is necessary that this is included as foundation for the CDFM control behaviour and for the sensorless control investigations. Steady state analysis of the CDFM highlights similarities to the SDFM. Two different field oriented control schemes are applied to the CDFM. A previously developed combined flux oriented scheme is modified to be applicable to a CDFM consisting of any machine combination. Furthermore, the scheme is simplified by removing a mathematical control extension in the q-axis, which has a stabilising effect on the control performance. Justified by steady state analysis the stator flux oriented control structure initially developed for the SDFM is applied to the CDFM. Two variations of a position sensorless scheme taking advantage of the proportionalitics between stator and rotor quantities are applied to the SDFM. Differentiating the estimated position angle allows the schemes to be extended for speed control purposes. The performance of the scnsorless field oriented control methods are also investigated on the CDFM. Harmonic analysis of the SDFM / CDFM systeme stablishes harmonic sources and harmonic current propagation through the system. A theoretical harmonic current prediction process incorporating simulation and steady state modeling delivers good results. All theoretical investigations are confirmed by experimental results. The experimental realtime controlled drive system consists of two 2.25 kW wound rotor induction machines, a bidirectional IGBT converter and the control hardware comprises two 8OC167 microcontrollers.

Abstract:

Experimental and theoretical studies are made of a typical snap-action rocker switch, to establish the wear mechanisms in the pivoting contact. The rocker switch, used extensively in consumer goods, operates in the medium duty current range, (1 - 30 Amps). Highspeed photographic studies have shown that the main cause of wear is arcing, occurring during separation and bounce at the pivot contacts. To reduce the bounce a computer-based mathematical model of the system dynamics is developed and optimised; this results in recommended design changes. These changes are tested under full current endurance conditions, and show significant improvements in wear. The model of the switch dynamics relates the mathematics of motion to the bounce occuring at the pivot contact, without the influence of current. To show the effect of current and arcing, an automatic test system is developed for the controlled testing of electrical contacts. The system has the ability to evaluate arc energy, bounce times, and contact resistance. The results presented detail the influence of d.c current on contact bounce time, and identify the importance of the subsequent bounce time; which is defined for a single make operation, as the total duration of the bounces occurring after the first bounce. To compare the erosion profiles of the switch and test system, the system is operated under full load current endurance conditions, to evaluate wear. This comparison shows that the wear in the real switch contacts is greater, as result of the additional contact movement of slip and rolling.
