Robust Adaptive Sliding Mode Control of Markovian Jump Systems with Uncertain Mode-dependent Time-varying Delays and Partly Unknown Transition ProbabilitiesNasibeh Zohrabi, Hasan Zakeri, Amir Hossein Abolmasoumi et al.
This paper deals with the problems of stochastic stability and sliding mode control for a class of continuous-time Markovian jump systems with mode-dependent time-varying delays and partly unknown transition probabilities. The design method is general enough to cover a wide spectrum of systems from those with completely known transition probability rates to those with completely unknown transition probability rates. Based on some mode-dependent Lyapunov-Krasovski functionals and making use of the free-connection weighting matrices, new delay-dependent conditions guaranteeing the existence of linear switching surfaces and the stochastic stability of sliding mode dynamics are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Then, a sliding mode controller is designed such that the resulted closed-loop system's trajectories converge to predefined sliding surfaces in a finite time and remain there for all subsequent times. This paper also proposes an adaptive sliding mode controller design method which applies to cases in which mode-dependent time-varying delays are unknown. All the conditions obtained in this paper are in terms of LMI feasibility problems. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

Optimal Intelligent Control for Wind Turbulence Rejection in WECS Using ANNs and Genetic Fuzzy ApproachHadi kasiri, hamid reza momeni, Atiyeh Kasiri
One of the disadvantages in Connection of wind energy conversion systems (WECSs) to transmission networks is plentiful turbulence of wind speed. Therefore effects of this problem must be controlled. Nowadays, pitch-controlled WECSs are increasingly used for variable speed and pitch wind turbines. Megawatt class wind turbines generally turn at variable speed in wind farm. Thus turbine operation must be controlled in order to maximize the conversion efficiency below rated power and reduce loading on the drive-train. Due to random and non-linear nature of the wind turbulence and the ability of Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) and Radial Basis Function (RBF) Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) in the modeling and control of this turbulence, in this study, widespread changes of wind have been perused using MLP and RBF artificial NNs. In addition in this study, a new genetic fuzzy system has been successfully applied to identify disturbance wind in turbine input. Thus output power has been regulated in optimal and nominal range by pitch angle regulation. Consequently, our proposed approaches have regulated output aerodynamic power and torque in the nominal rang.
