โœฆ Synopsis

This paper addresses an important problem in ship control application-the robust stabilization of underactuated ships on a linear course with comfort. Specifically, we develop a multivariable controller to stabilize ocean surface ships without a sway actuator on a linear course and to reduce roll and pitch simultaneously. The controller adapts to unknown parameters of the ship and constant environmental disturbances induced by wave, ocean current and wind. It is also robust to time-varying environmental disturbances, time-varying change in ship parameters and other motions of the ship such as surge and heave. The roll and pitch can be made arbitrarily small while the heading angle and sway are kept to be in reasonably small bounds. The controller development is based on Lyapunov's direct method and backstepping technique. A Lipschitz continuous projection algorithm is used to update the estimate of the unknown parameters to avoid the parameters' drift due to time-varying environmental disturbances. Simulations on a full-scale catamaran illustrate the effectiveness of our proposed controller.

For the purpose of controlling an X-Y table driven by linear motors with a high precision, an adaptive robust motion tracking control method is first introduced. The controller is developed based upon a class of SISO nonlinear systems whose nonlinear part can be linearly parameterized. The advantage

In this paper, we present two on-line adaptive control algorithms for non-linear plants using neural networks. The architecture used is based on the concept of specialized learning, which was first proposed by Psaltis et al. and suffers from two main problems, namely lack of knowledge of the plant J
