Title: | Robust control design using modern constrained optimization techniques /by Mahmud Iwan Solihin | Authors: | Solihin, Mahmud Iwan | Subject: | Robust control Automatic control |
Year: | 2012 | Publisher: | Kuala Lumpur: International Islamic University Malaysia, 2012 | Abstract in English: | Robust control design is commonly a difficult task that requires complicated mathematical formulation and heuristic parameters tuning. In addition, if often results in a high order controller. Motivated by the need to reduce complexity, a robust state feedback control design using modern constrained optimization algorithms is proposed in this thesis. Combining the advantages of robust control theory and computational intelligence makes the task more straightforward and automatic. Basically, a robust control design requires a set of goals to be achieved such as good transient response, zero steady state error for a constant input and most importantly, robustness to parameter uncertainty. A single-objective constrained optimization technique is used in the proposed method to handle these requirements. Searching for a set of robust controller gains that maximizes the stability radius of the closed-loop system is the objective. The constraint of the optimization is the region for the closedloop poles that represents the desired time-domain control performance. In the beginning, the study is focused to find the suitable modern optimization tool(s) among the commonly used optimization tools such as Genetic Algorithm, Particle Swarm Optimization and Differential Evolution. The study further investigates the optimization features, such as constraint handling, stopping criterion and choice of optimization parameters. The result shows that Differential Evolution (with mutation factor=0.5 and crossover constant=0.9) outperforms Clerc's Particle Swarm Optimization and Genetic Algorithm in constrained optimization problems. At the end of the study, the proposed robust control design using Particle Swarm Optimization and Differential Evolution are applied to pendulum-like systems, such as gantry crane, flexible joint and inverted pendulum. A set of laboratory experiments are carried out to evaluate the performance of the designed controller.
