Abstract: In this paper the H∞ robust control technique is applied to design a switched reluctance motor drive where the rotor position sensor provides just six pulses per revolution. A control system ...

Abstract: This paper presents a software cam manufacturing system. It includes a position tracking control system, a programmable cam profile, and a programmable variable angular velocity profile. The ...

Abstract: In this paper, we apply and extend Young’s algorithm for the Nevanlinna-Pick problems to solve an optimal robust stabilizer in multivariable feedback control systems. A sufficient condition for ...

Abstract: This paper presents a predictor-corrector interpolator (PCI) for the CNC machining of parts with parametric curves or surfaces. In contrast to existing parametric interpolators, the proposed method ...

Abstract: This paper employs control techniques to analyze kinematic relationships via block diagrams for planetary gear systems. The revealed tangent-velocity equations at each contact point of the mechanical ...

Abstract: A cam is often assumed to be operated at a constant speed in designing a cam-follower system. The motion characteristics of the follower are determined once the cam displacement curve is ...

Abstract: This paper presents reliability-based analyses for the calibration of resistance factor for axially loaded drilled shafts. A total of 16 cases of drilled-shaft load tests were collected from the Louisiana Department of ...
