Full textAbstract:
The pole assignment problem has been subject for research for a long time. For single-input single-output systems this problem is well understood but for multi-input multi-output systems the pole assignment problem is more complex. In this thesis a parameterization of state feedback gains for pole assignment is characterized with respect to completeness, redundancy and existence. In order to make a systematic examination of this parameterization a number of classes are introduced. This parameterization depends on two matrices that can be regarded as design parameters. In the thesis it is shown how the degree of freedom in the pole assignment problem for multi-input systems is characterized by these two matrices. It turns out that the properties of the parameterization depends on whether the characteristic polynomials of the open and the closed loop systems are coprime or not. It is shown in the thesis that if the characteristic polynomials are coprime, every possible feedback gain can be parameterized in this way, and in this sense the parameterization is complete. If the characteristic polynomials have factors in common the parameterization is not complete. In the thesis the shortcomings of the parameterization for this case are characterized. The design parameters seem to offer a greater degree of freedom than what can be offered in the pole assignment problem. This indicates a certain degree of overparameterization. This redundancy in the design parameters is characterized in the thesis. The parameterization implies that a certain matrix is invertible. Necessary conditions for when this matrix is invertible are given in terms of the two design parameters. It is shown that this matrix is invertible for almost every value of the design parameters when the characteristic polynomials are coprime, and hence that the parameterized gains are generally applicable. The parameterization and its properties are illustrated on a linear model of the military aircraft JAS Gripen.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis presents decentralized model reference adaptive control techniques for systems with full-state feedback and systems with output feedback. The controllers are strictly decentralized, that is, each local controller uses feedback from only local subsystems and no information is shared between local controllers.
The full-state feedback decentralized controller is effective for multi-input systems, where the dynamics matrix and control-input matrix are unknown. The decentralized controller achieves asymptotic stabilization and command following in the presence of sinusoidal disturbances with known spectrum. We present a construction technique of the reference-model dynamics such that the decentralized controller is effective for systems with arbitrarily large subsystem interconnections.
The output-feedback decentralized controller is effective for single-input single-output subsystems that are minimum phase and relative degree one. The decentralized controller achieves asymptotic stabilization and disturbance rejection in the presence of an unknown disturbance, which is generated by an unknown Lyapunov-stable linear system.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis concerns the development of robust nonlinear control design for complex systems including nonholonomic systems and large-scale systems using sliding mode control (SMC) techniques under the assumption that all system state variables are accessible for design. The main developments in this thesis include: 1). The concept of generalised regular form and design of a novel sliding function. The mathematical definition of generalised regular form is proposed for the first time. It is an extension of the classical regular form, which makes SMC applicable to a wider class of nonlinear systems. A novel sliding function design, which is based on the global implicit function theorem, is proposed to guarantee unique sliding mode dynamics. 2). The development of decentralised SMC for large-scale interconnected systems. For systems with uncertain interconnections which possess the superposition property, a decentralised control scheme is presented to counteract the effect of the uncertainty by using bounds on uncertainties and interconnections. The bounds used in the design are nonlinear functions instead of constant, linear or polynomial functions. The design strategy has also been expanded to a fully nonlinear case for interconnected systems in the generalised regular form. 3). Robust decentralised SMC for a class of nonlinear systems with uncertainties in input distribution. A system with uncertainties in input distribution is full of challenges. A novel method is proposed to deal with such uncertainties for a class of nonlinear interconnected systems. The designed decentralised SMC enhances the robustness of the controlled systems. This thesis also provides case studies of three applications for the proposed approaches. The existence of the generalised regular form is verified in the trajectory tracking control of a wheeled mobile robot (WMR) system. Both simulations and experiments on the WMR are given to demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of the generalised regular form-based SMC design. A continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) system and a longitudinal vehicle-following system are used to test the proposed decentralised SMC schemes. An expanded vehicle-following system with both longitudinal and lateral controllers has been developed to demonstrate the robust control design for system with uncertainties in input distribution.

Full textAbstract:
Asymptotic stability is a key notion of system stability for controlled dynamical systems as it guarantees that the system trajectories are bounded in a neighborhood of a given isolated equilibrium point and converge to this equilibrium over the infinite horizon. In some applications, however, asymptotic stability is not the appropriate notion of stability. For example, for systems with a continuum of equilibria, every neighborhood of an equilibrium contains another equilibrium and a nonisolated equilibrium cannot be asymptotically stable. Alternatively, in stabilization of spacecraft dynamics via gimballed gyroscopes, it is desirable to find state- and output-feedback control laws that guarantee partial-state stability of the closed-loop system, that is, stability with respect to part of the system state. Furthermore, we may additionally require finite-time stability of the closed-loop system, that is, convergence of the system's trajectories to a Lyapunov stable equilibrium in finite time.
The Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman optimal control framework provides necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of state-feedback controllers that minimize a given performance measure and guarantee asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system. In this research, we provide extensions of the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman optimal control theory to develop state-feedback control laws that minimize nonlinear-nonquadratic performance criteria and guarantee semistability, partial-state stability, finite-time stability, and finite-time partial state stability of the closed-loop system.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract—This paper proposes a new approach for the optimal
integrated control and real-time scheduling of control tasks.
First, the problem of the optimal integrated control and nonpreemptive
off-line scheduling of control tasks in the sense of
the H2 performance criterion is addressed. It is shown that this
problem may be decomposed into two sub-problems. The first
sub-problem aims at finding the optimal non-preemptive off-line
schedule, and may be solved using the branch and bound method.
The second sub-problem uses the lifting technique to determine
the optimal control gains, based on the solution of the first
sub-problem. Second, an efficient on-line scheduling algorithm
is proposed. This algorithm, called Reactive Pointer Placement
(RPP) scheduling algorithm, uses the plant state information to
dispatch the computational resources in a way that improves
control performance. Control performance improvements as well
as stability guarantees are formally proven. Finally, simulations
as well as experimental results are presented in order to illustrate
the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis is concerned with robust control of an offshore steel jacket platform
subject to nonlinear wave-induced forces. Since time delay and uncertainty are
inevitably encountered for an offshore structure and their existence may induce instability, oscillation and poor performance, it is very significant to study on how the
delay and uncertainty affect the offshore structure. In this thesis, a memory robust
control strategy is, for the first time, proposed to reduce the internal oscillations
of the offshore structure under wave-induced forces, so as to ensure the safety and
comfort of the offshore structure.
Firstly, when the system's states are adopted as feedback, memory state feedback
controllers are introduced for the offshore structure. By using Lyapunov-Krasovskii
stability theory, some delay-dependent stability criteria have been established, based
on which, and by combining with some linearization techniques, memory state feedback controllers are designed to control the offshore structure. The simulation results show that such controllers can effectively reduce the internal oscillations of the
offshore structure subject to nonlinear wave-induced forces and uncertainties. On
the other hand, a new Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is introduced to derive a less
conservative delay-dependent stability criterion. When this criterion is applied to
the offshore structure, an improved memory state feedback controller with a small
gain is obtained to control the system more effectively, which is sufficiently shown
by the simulation.
Secondly, when the system's outputs are adopted as feedback, memory dynamic
output feedback controllers are considered for the offshore structure. By employing
a projection theorem and a cone complementary linearization approach, memory
dynamic output feedback controllers are derived by solving some nonlinear minimization problem subject to some linear matrix inequalities. The simulation results
show that the internal oscillations of the offshore structure subject to nonlinear
wave-induced forces are well attenuated.
Finally, robust H control is fully investigated for the offshore structure. By employing Lyapunov-Krasovskii stability theory, some delay-dependent bounded real
lemmas have been obtained, under which, via a memory state feedback controller or
a dynamic output feedback controller, the resulting closed-loop system is not only
asymptotically stable but also with a prescribed disturbance attenuation level. The
simulation results illustrate the validity of the proposed method.

The traffic signal affects the life of virtually everyone every day.

The problems related to rapid growth in traffic <BR>congestion call for more effective traffic signalization using robust feedback control methodology. <P>Online traffic-responsive signalization is based on real-time traffic conditions and selects cycle, split, phase, and offset for the intersection according to detector data.

This information serves the input to the traffic control process <BR>which in turn provides an output in terms of the desired performance under varying conditions. <P>Traffic signalization belongs to a class of hybrid systems since the differential equations model the continuous behavior of the traffic flow dynamics and finite-state machines model the discrete state changes of the controller. A complicating aspect, due to the state-space <BR>constraint that queue lengths are necessarily nonnegative, is that the continuous-time system dynamics is actually the <BR>projection of a smooth system of ordinary differential equations. This also leads to discontinuities in the boundary dynamics <BR>of a sort common in queueing problems. <BR>The project is concerned with the design of a feedback controller to minimize accumulated queue lengths in the presence of unknown inflow disturbances at an isolated intersection and a traffic network with some signalized intersections. A dynamical system has finite L<SUB>2</SUB>-gain if it is dissipative in some sense. Therefore, the H<SUB>infinity</SUB>-control problem turns to designing a controller such that the resulting closed loop system is dissipative, and correspondingly there exists a storage function. <P>The major contributions of this thesis include 1) to propose state space models for both isolated multi-phase intersections and a class of queueing networks; 2) to formulate H<SUB>infinity</SUB> problems for the control systems with persistent disturbances; 3) to present the projection dynamics aspects of the problem to account for the constraints on the state variables; 4) formally to study this problem as a hybrid system; 5) to derive traffic-actuated feedback control laws for the multi-phase intersections. Though we have mathematically presented a robust feedback solution for the traffic signalization, there still remains some distance before the physical implementation. A robust adaptive control is an interesting research area for the future traffic signalization.<br>Ph. D.

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation aims at solving the consensus control problem of multi-agent systems with Lipschitz nonlinearity. This depends on the design of the controller that enables each agent or subsystem in multi-agent systems with Lipschitz nonlinearity to reach consensus; using the understanding of the agents' connection network from the knowledge of graph theory as well as the control system design strategy. The objective is achieved by designing a type of distributed control, namely the consensus control, which manipulates the relative information of each agent in a multi-agent systems in order to arrive at a single solution. In addition, containment control is also developed to solve containment problem. It is an extension of consensus control via leader-follower configuration, aimed at having each agent contained by multiple leaders in a multi-agent systems with Lipschitz nonlinearity. Four types of controllers are proposed - state-feedback consensus controller, observer-based consensus controller, state-feedback containment controller and observer-based containment controller; each provides the stability conditions based on Lyapunov stability analysis in time domain which enabled each agent or subsystem to reach consensus. The observer-based controllers are designed based on the consensus observer that is related to Luenberger observer. Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) and Algebraic Riccati Equation (ARE) are utilized to obtain the solutions for the stability conditions. The simulation results of the proposed controllers and observers have been carried out to prove their theoretical validity. Several practical examples of flexible robot arm simulations are included to further validate the theoretical aspects of the thesis.

We develop and adapt absolute stability results for nonnegative Lur'e systems, that is, systems made up of linear part and a nonlinear feedback in which the state remains nonnegative for all time. This is done in both continuous and discrete time with an aim of applying these results to population modeling. Further to this, we consider forced nonnegative Lur'e systems, that is, Lur'e systems with an additional disturbance, and provide results on input-to-state stability (ISS), again in both continuous and discrete time. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a forced Lur'e system to have the converging-input converging-state (CICS) property in a general setting before specializing these results to nonnegative, single-input, single-output systems. Finally we apply integral control to nonnegative systems in order to control the output of the system with the key focus being on applications to population management.

Full textAbstract:
The control theory of nonlinear systems has been receiving increasing attention in recent years, both for its technical importance as well as for its impact in various fields of application. In several key areas, such as aerospace, chemical and petrochemical industries, bioengineering, and robotics, a new practical application for this tool appears every day. System nonlinearity is characterized when at least one component or subsystem is nonlinear. Classical methods used in the study of linear systems, particularly superposition, are not usually applied to the nonlinear systems. It is necessary to use other methods to study the control of these systems. For a wide class of nonlinear systems, a rather important structural feature comes from the strong nonlinearity appearing as coupling between spectrally decoupled parts of the system. Even in the case of low frequencies, where lumped models can still be employed the nonlinear coupling between parts of the system requires specific treatment, using advanced mathematical tools. In this context, an alternative, frequency domain approach is pursued here. In the rest of this work, a specific system form of linearly decoupled but nonlinearly coupled subsystems is examined. The mathematical toolbox of the Hilbert transform is appropriately introduced for obtaining two low-pass subsystems that form an equivalent description of the essential overall system dynamics. The nonlinear coupled dynamics is investigated systematically by partitioning the coupled system state vector in such a way as to fully exploit the low-pass and the band-pass intrinsic features of free dynamics. In particular, by employing the Hilbert Transform, a low-pass equivalent system is derived. Then, a typical case is investigated thoroughly by means of numerical simulation of the original coupled low and band-pass, real-state-variable system and the low-pass-equivalent, complex-state-variable derived one. The nonlinear model equations considered here pave the way for a systematic investigation of nonlinear feedback control options designed to operate mechatronic transducers in energy harvesting, sensing or actuation modes.

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation presents novel adaptive control laws in both state feedback and output feedback forms. In the setting of state feedback adaptive control K-modification provides a tunable stiffness term that results in a frequency dependent filtering effect, smoother
transient responses, and time delay robustness in an adaptive system. K-modification
is combined with the recently developed Kalman filter (KF) based adaptive control and
derivative-free (DF) adaptive control. K-modification and its combinations with KF adaptive
control and DF adaptive control preserve the advantages of each of these methods and
can also be combined with other modification methods such as - and e-modification. An
adaptive output feedback control law based on a state observer is also developed. The main
idea behind this approach is to apply a parameter dependent Riccati equation to output
feedback adaptive control. The adaptive output feedback approach assumes that a state
observer is employed in the nominal controller design. The observer design is modified
and employed in the adaptive part of the design in place of a reference model. This is
combined with a novel adaptive weight update law. The weight update law ensures that
estimated states follow both the reference model states and the true states so that both
state estimation errors and state tracking errors are bounded. Although the formulation is
in the setting of model following adaptive control, the realization of the adaptive controller
uses the observer of the nominal controller in place of the reference model to generate an
error signal. Thus the only components that are added by the adaptive controller are the
realizations of the basis functions and the weight adaptation law. The realization is even
less complex than that of implementing a model reference adaptive controller in the case of
state feedback. The design procedure of output feedback adaptive control is illustrated with
two examples: a simple wingrock dynamics model and a more complex aeroelastic aircraft
transport model.

Idag finns det en ökad efterfrågan på förbättrad motorstyrning inom motorutvecklingen. Återkoppling av relevanta förbränningsparametrar för att optimera förbränningsprocessen har undersökts som en eventuell lösning. Den här typen av kontroll baserar sig på realtidsinformation från motorn som sedan skickas till motorstyrenheten (Engine Control Unit, ECU) för att optimera bränsleinsprutningen. Denna kontroll skapar en övervakad förbränning som kan uppdateras kontinuerligt under drift. Signalbearbetningen består också av uppskattning av parametrar, som är svåra att mäta i motornsmiljö exempelvis värmeavgivning kopplat till vevaxelvinkel (10%, 50% och 90% brunnet). Motorstyrenheten kan använda denna vevaxelvinkel som en återkopplingssignal, och om nödvändigt så kan insprutningsfasningen uppdateras. Värdena som kommer från givarna hjälper också att upptäcka om vissa parametrar i motorn överstiger ett kritiskt värde, så att fel kan upptäckas. Realtidsmätning och bearbetning av sådan information är en komplex och resurskrävande uppgift när det gäller beräkning, vilket gör det nödvändigt att använda en ytterligare, snabb enhet för bearbetning. Den kompakta realtidsenheten som användes under projektet innehöll nödvändiga moduler för kommunikation samt en FPGA och ett CANgränssnitt. Dessa moduler gjorde det möjligt att uppfylla krav på hastighet, minne, provtagning, interpolering, medelvärdesberäkning av cykler samt beräkning av återkopplingssignalen och överföring till motorstyrenhet. Resultaten visar hur realtidsberäkningarna matchar resultaten med öppen styrning. Resultaten visar att omfattande synkronisering behövs för att matcha motorfasen med analoga sensorer, såsom tryckgivaren, som kan uppta en ganska stor del av minnet beroende på arkitekturen men genom att överväga tidskrav kan minnet sparas genom sekventiell körning. Det observerades också att burs kan störa beräkningarna på ett sätt att vissa beräkningsmodeller kan leda till helt felaktiga resultat, så det är önskvärt att få en signal som är så ostörd som möjligt.<br>There is an increasing demand for improved engine control in the area of engine development in order to improve engine life cycle, reduce emissions, increase efficiency, and optimize the combustion process. Closed-loop combustion control has been investigated as a possible solution to these demands. This kind of control relies on real-time sensor information coming from the engine. Its processing is based on what feedback signal is generated to the Engine Control Unit (ECU) in order to find the optimal time for fuel injection. This creates a monitored combustion process and an injection strategy that can be updated continuously during operation. The processing of the sensor signals involves estimation of parameters that are difficult to sense in an engine environment. Examples of such parameters are the heat release, and the calculation of the phase of the engine cycle (degree of the revolving crankshaft) where ten, fifty and ninety percent of the fuel completes its combustion. These crank angle degrees can be used by the ECU as a feedback signal, enabling to change the fuel injection strategy, if needed. The values coming from the sensors also help detecting if certain parameters of the engine surpass a critical value, so malfunction can be detected. Real-time acquisition and processing of such information is a complex and heavy task in terms of computation, which makes it necessary to use an additional, fast processing unit. The compact real-time board that was used during this thesis work, containing an analog and digital input and output module, as well as an FPGA and an interface for CAN communication had the possibility to meet speed and memory requirements to perform sampling, interpolation, averaging of a certain number of cycles, calculating the feedback signal and transmitting it to the engine control unit. The results show how the real time calculations, with necessary simplifications to meet speed requirements, match the results of models with offline and non real-time calculation. It was also observed how the closed-loop combustion affected the injection strategy, combined with the existing open-loop calculation model. The findings show that extensive synchronization is needed in order to pair the engine phase with analog sensors such as the pressure sensor, which can occupy quite a large part of the memory depending on the architecture, but by considering timing requirements, memory can be saved by sequential execution. It was also observed that noise can disturb the calculations to such an extent that certain calculation models can lead to completely wrong results, so it is desirable to have a signal that is as clean as possible.

Full textAbstract:
In this thesis, autopilots are developed for missiles with moderate dynamics and
stationary targets. The aim is to use the designs in real applications. Since the real
missile model is nonlinear, a linearization process is required to get use of systematic
linear controller design techniques. In the scope of this thesis, the linear quadratic
full state feedback approach is applied for developing missile autopilots. However,
the limitations of measurement systems on the missiles restrict the availability of all
the states required for feedback. Because of this fact, the linear quadratic design will
be approximated by the use of projective control theory. This method enables the
designer to use preferably static feedback or if necessary a controller plus a low
order compensator combination to approximate the full state feedback reference.
Autopilots are checked for the validity of linearization, robust stability against
aerodynamic, mechanical and measurement uncertainties.

Além de constituir a estrutura de apoio do manipulador, a base serve de repositório para diversos componentes de sensoriamento e comando dos diversos graus de liberdade do robô e ainda apresenta elementos estruturais que são utilizados como acumuladores de ar comprimido que servem para atenuar as flutuações de pressão nos atuadores pneumáticos. O 1º grau de liberdade do robô, de acordo com a concepção de um robô cilíndrico, é relativo ao giro do conjunto de elos do manipulador em torno do eixo vertical. O seu movimento é comandado por um atuador pneumático linear acoplado a um eixo rotativo por uma correia sincronizadora. O controlador proposto é baseado na técnica de realimentação de estados com alocação de polos e compensa a variação do momento de inércia do manipulador devida ao movimento do robô. Este esquema é baseado em um modelo matemático parametrizado que provê continuamente o valor de massa equivalente acoplada ao primeiro grau de atuador de liberdade. Assim, a cada ciclo de controle, os ganhos do controlador são recalculados a partir do valor atual da massa equivalente, visando a compensar sua variação.

This degree of freedom is controlled by a linear pneumatic actuator coupled to a rotary axis mechanism by an industrial synchronous belt. The proposed controller is based on the state feedback technique with pole location and compensates the variation of the moment of inertia of the manipulator due to the motion of the robot. This scheme is based on a parameterized mathematical model that continuously provides the equivalent mass value coupled to the first degree of freedom actuator. So, in each control cycle, the controller gains are recalculated on the basis of the equivalent mass, compensating its variation. Results of experiments and discussions about the equivalent mass calculation and controller performance are presented.

Full textAbstract:
The discharge through a river hydropower plant must be controlled such that the water level at a pre-specified point close to the facility is kept within given bounds. The controllers used today have a somewhat demanding tuning and often create too much amplified, unnatural discharge variations resulting in unsatisfactory control performance.This will affect both surrounding nature and imposing problems for river navigation. This thesis will present a new type of controller called Override Selector feedback Control that adds an estimator for the water levels and water flows in the up- and downriver for each hydropower plant on top of the old controller. The objective of the state feedback control is to keep the total variation of the water levels and the waterflows as small as possible. After the linear, discrete time model of the power plant cascade in a river derived from the Saint Venant equations have been developed, the new concept is evaluated. Both the water level sloshing and the amplification of the discharges compared to the structure used today is damped with the new control structure. Other advantages of the proposed controller is that it will be cost efficient to implement because of the add-on approach. This is seen as a very important factor while the actual benefit that can be made by improving the water level control is very limited and thereby also the will to make extensive control investments. The control structure will be easily implemented as the estimators only need the same input data as used today.

Full textAbstract:
While the active dynamic stability of automobiles has increased over the past 17 years there have been very few similar advances made with electrically powered wheelchairs. This lack of improvement has led to a long standing acceptance of less-than-optimal stability and control of these wheelchairs. Accidents due to loss of stability are well documented. Hence, the healthcare industry has made several efforts for improved control of electric powered wheelchairs (EPWs) to provide enhanced comfort, safety and manoeuvrability at a lower cost. In response, an area of stability control was identified that could benefit from a feedback control system using solid state sensors.
To design an effective closed–loop feedback controller with optimal performance to overcome instabilities, an accurate model of wheelchair dynamics needed to be created. Such a model can be employed to test various controllers quickly and repeatedly, without the difficulties of physically setting a wheelchair up for each test. This task was one central goal of this research.
A wireless test-bed of a front wheel drive (FWD) wheelchair was also developed to validate a dynamic wheelchair model. It integrates sensors, a data control system, an embedded controller, and the motorised mechanical system. The wireless communication ensures the integrity of sensor data collected and control signals sent. The test-bed developed not only facilitates the development of feedback controllers of motorised wheelchairs, but the collected data can also be used to confirm theories of causes of dynamic instabilities. The prototype test-bed performed the required tasks to satisfaction as defined by the sponsor.
Data collected from live tests in which the test-bed followed set patterns, was processed and analysed. The patterns were designed to induce instability. The analysis revealed that an occupied wheelchair is more stable than an unoccupied wheelchair, disproving an initial instability theory proposed in this research. However, a proximal theory explaining over-steer is confirmed.
Two models of the FWD test-bed were created. First, a dynamic model inherited from prior research, based on equations of motion was tested and enhanced based on measured data. However, even with alterations to correct parameter values and variables in the equations, a complete model validation was not possible. Second, a kinematic model was created with a factor to compensate for dynamics not normally accounted in kinematic models. The kinematic model was partially validated versus the measured data. Although, still highly accurate, there is room for improvement in this model. Both models contained a sub-system drive motor model, to account for input forces to the FWD wheelchair system model, which is fully validated.

A naive approach to filtering for feedback control of dynamic systems that is robust and stable is proposed. Simulations are run on the filters presented to investigate the robustness properties of each filter. Each simulation with the comparison of the filters is carried out using the usual mean squared error. The filters to be included are the classic Kalman filter, Krein space Kalman, two adjustments to the Krein filter with input modeling and a second uncertainty parameter, a newly developed filter called the Naive filter, bias corrected Naive, exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) Naive, and bias corrected EWMA Naive filter.

Thesis (D. Tech. (Biomedical Technology)) -- Central University of Technology, Free State, 2015<br>This study reviewed national and international literature to develop an audit-feedback instrument (AFI) to monitor adherence of South African oral health care facilities with compliance to infection prevention and control precautions. In a multi-phased literature search, existing infection prevention and control recommendations, guidelines and audit-feedback instruments were reviewed and broadened to include “dental audit tools”, as well as audit tools from other health care disciplines. Audit-feedback instruments were scrutinised for user friendliness, the use of simple language, electronic calculations and feedback possibilities. A new South African AFI was proposed, considering the differences between public and private oral health care facilities and also the diversity of training levels of oral health care personnel employed. Eleven focus areas supporting all aspects of infection prevention and control in oral health care facilities, including administrative controls; personnel protection controls; environmental- and work controls; surface contamination management; equipment maintenance, service or repair; air- and waterline management; personal protective equipment usage; personal and hand hygiene practices; sterilisation practices; safe sharps handling and waste management were included. The AFI was tested in a sample of 50 oral health care facilities. None of the participating facilities demonstrated 100% compliance. Personal- and hand hygiene practices and waste management performed the best, at respectively 75% and 63%, while administrative controls and air- and waterline management scored the lowest mean values; 31% and 36% respectively The general lack of compliance with infection prevention and control precautions in the participating oral health care facilities clearly poses a safety hazard to both patients and oral health care workers.
Results indicate that adherence of South African oral health care facilities with compliance to infection prevention and control precautions need to be improved. The AFI should go a long way towards improving safety and the high expectations about providing quality infection prevention and control outcomes in oral health care.

The project requirements were obtained through a research in a manual tools factory. It is proposed a geometry that is intended to meet a significant amount of the usual moving parts demands in manufacturing industries and its corresponding nonlinear dynamic theoretic model, considering the pneumatic actuators model coupled to the mechanical system. Finally, the application of a linear control-law based on the technique of state feedback with design made by pole assignment using a linearized model of 3rd order is described. For validation of the theoretic model and proposed control algorithm are presented simulations of point to point regulation problem and trajectory tracking. The results show that the positioning accuracy of the end effector is suitable for achieving the planned tasks.

Experiments on single moleculerely mostly on Optical Tweezers, Magnetic Tweezers or Atomic Force Spectroscopy, buthave a low throughput since preparations are done one at a time. To move towardssystematic biological or medical analysis, micro- and nano-systems (MNEMS) are theappropriate tools as they can integrate accurate molecular level engineering tools andcan be cheaply produced with highly parallel process.Design and fabrication of the silicon tweezers are made by ourselves in the lab of Pr.Hiroyuki Fujita (U. of Tokyo, Japan). DNA molecules are firstly trapped in solution bydielectrophoresis. Then biological reactions are characterized in real-time by monitoringthe mechanical resonance of the system {tweezers + DNA bundle}. The resolution of themeasurements allowed the sensing of about 30 of λ-DNA molecule stiffness (i.e. about20 mN/m). To achieve the single molecule resolution, we propose to implement a feedbackstrategy to alter the system.State feedback was developed to emulate a new system more sensitive to mechanicalstiffness parameter detection. As it remains problematic to design and fabricate newmicro mechanical device with extremely low stiffness (< 1 N/m), we propose to emulate acompliant system. By simulations it was demonstrated an enhancement of the sensitivityof about 10 when the resonant frequency of the closed-loop system is designed to be 10times lower than the tweezers resonant frequency (i.e. reducing the stiffness parameterof the system). Experimentally we demonstrated an improvement of the the sensitivityof superior to 2. However the issue is here to obtain stability, robustness with respectto disturbances and unmodeled dynamics. Before to attain the sensitivity of the singlemolecule, problematics about the model of the device or about the several dynamics ofthe device needs to be dealt in order to control and fit the improvement with the theory

Full textAbstract:
In this thesis different control methods are applied to the beam and ball system. Test
setup for the previous thesis is handled, circuit assemblies and hardware redesigned. As
the system is controlled by the control law partitioning method by a computer, discrete
time system model is created. The controllability and the observability of the system
are analyzed and a nonlinear controller by using control law partitioning in other words
computed torque is designed. State feedback control algorithm previously designed is
repeated. In case of calculating the non measurable state variables two different
reduced order observers are designed for these two different controllers, one for control
law partitioning controller and the other for state-feedback controller. Two controller
methods designed for the thesis study are tested in the computer environment using
modeling and simulation tools (Also a different controller by using sliding mode
controller is designed and tested in the computer environment using simulation tools).
A controller software program is written for the designed controller algorithms and this
software is tested on the test setup. It is observed that the system is stable when we
apply either of the control algorithms.

Full textAbstract:
In this thesis study, a valveless hydraulic servo system controlled by two
pumps is investigated and its performance characteristics are compared with a
conventional valve controlled system both experimentally and analytically. The
two control techniques are applied on the position control of a single rod linear
actuator. In the valve controlled system, the flow rate through the actuator is
regulated with a servovalve<br>whereas in the pump controlled system, two variable
speed pumps driven by servomotors regulate the flow rate according to the needs of
the system, thus eliminating the valve losses.
To understand the dynamic behaviors of two systems, the order of the
differential equations defining the system dynamics of the both systems are reduced
by using the fact that the dynamic pressure changes in the hydraulic cylinder
chambers become linearly dependent on leakage coefficients and cylinder chamber
volumes above and below some prescribed cut off frequencies. Thus the open loop
speed response of the pump controlled and valve controlled systems are defined by
v
second order transfer functions. The two systems are modeled in MATLAB
Simulink environment and the assumptions are validated.
For the position control of the single rod hydraulic actuator, a linear state
feedback control scheme is applied. Its state feedback gains are determined by
using the linear and linearized reduced order dynamic system equations. A linear
Kalman filter for pump controlled system and an unscented Kalman filter for valve
controlled system are designed for estimation and filtering purposes.
The dynamic performances of both systems are investigated on an
experimental test set up developed by conducting open loop and closed loop
frequency response and step response tests. MATLAB Real Time Windows Target
(RTWT) module is used in the tests for application purposes.
