In electric machine control practice, it is not desirable or possible to measure all the state
variables needed for control implementation. A good observer-based method to obtain state …

Due to the increasing availability of improved power electronics and digital processors at
reduced costs, there has been a trend to seek higher performance from electric machine …

This work presents nonlinear control algorithms for a benchmark mechanical system
actuated by different types of electric machinery, emphasizing system stability and …

Many physical systems naturally require the use of discontinuous terms in their dynamics.
This is, for instance, the case of mechanical systems with friction. This fact was recognized …

A nonlinear adaptive state feedback input-output linearizing control is designed for a fifth-
order model of an induction motor which includes both electrical and mechanical dynamics …

Rotor flux observers can provide an attractive means for achieving direct field oriented
control of induction machines. This paper presents a physics-based design methodology …

Nonlinear and Adaptive Control Design for Induction Motors is a unified exposition of the
most important steps and concerns in the design of estimation and control algorithms for …

In this paper, we design and implement integrator backstep** controllers (ie, adaptive and
robust) for a brush DC motor driving a one-link robot manipulator. Through the use of …

A speed estimation method for an induction machine and its application to a flux observer-
based field orientation (FOFO) control system proposed previously is presented. The motor …

The authors describe a model reference adaptive control system for speed control of the
vector-controlled inverter induction motor drive without a speed sensor. The rotor speed is …
