Industrial Control

This book focuses on pneumatic servo systems analysis, control and application in robotic systems. The pneumatic servo systems are composed by pneumatic artificial muscles or cylinders, which are two important pneumatic actuators in industrial application. The active disturbance rejection control technique is used effectively to solve strong nonlinearity and uncertain factors for the pneumatic servo systems.

This book presents deep analysis of machine control for different applications, focusing on its implementation in embedded systems. Necessary peripherals for various microcontroller families are analysed for machine control and software architecture patterns for high-quality software development processes in motor control units are described. Abundant figures help the reader to understand the theoretical, simulation and practical implementation stages of machine control.

This volume is dedicated to A proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller. The contents of this book will serve as a good introduction to PID controllers and equip readers to design such controllers for various industrial applications.

This book assembles new methods showing the automotive engineer for the first time how hybrid vehicle configurations can be modeled as systems with discrete and continuous controls. These hybrid systems describe naturally and compactly the networks of embedded systems which use elements such as integrators, hysteresis, state-machines and logical rules to describe the evolution of continuous and discrete dynamics and arise inevitably when modeling hybrid electric vehicles. They can throw light on systems which may otherwise be too complex or recondite.

This book provides profound insights into industrial control system resilience, exploring fundamental and advanced topics and including practical examples and scenarios to support the theoretical approaches. It examines issues related to the safe operation of control systems, risk analysis and assessment, use of attack graphs to evaluate the resiliency of control systems, preventive maintenance, and malware detection and analysis. The book also discusses sensor networks and Internet of Things devices.

This monograph focuses on control methods that influence vehicle dynamics to assist the driver in enhancing passenger comfort, road holding, efficiency and safety of transport, etc., while maintaining the driver’s ability to override that assistance
