A new nonlinear switching surface is proposed for the design of a sliding mode controller for
a class of mismatched uncertain systems. A control system for slosh-free motion of a partially …

This paper considers the trajectory tracking problem of hybrid machines. A hybrid machine
here refers to a machine that is driven by the constant velocity (CV) motors and servomotors …

In air hybrid vehicles, there are two independent braking systems: frictional and
regenerative. Since the regenerative braking torque is proportional to the parameters such …

This paper deals with distributed multiagent reconfigurable embedded-control systems
following the component-based International Industrial Standard IEC61499 in which a …

Shaped holes are increasingly selected for airfoil cooling in gas turbines due to their
superior performance over that of cylindrical holes, especially at high blowing ratios. The …

To obtain the precise injection in GDI engines, this paper presents a model-based rail
pressure control scheme. First, a mathematical model is derived for the fuel rail injection …

Control of air–fuel ratio (AFR) plays a key role in the minimisation of the carbon dioxide and
harmful pollutant emissions and maximisation of fuel economy. An inherent time‐varying …

This paper presents a hybrid actuator composed by a piezo and a hydraulic part. Moreover,
a cascade PI-PID-PI control structure for camless engine motor applications is considered …

Engine calibration and control are important aspects of effective engine performance while
optimizing engine efficiency, fuel consumption, and exhaust gases. This requires the …

To maintain the stoichiometric air–fuel ratio (AFR), this paper presents a model‐based
adaptive AFR control scheme for port‐injected spark ignition engines. The utilized mean …
