Integral barrier Lyapunov function-based adaptive fuzzy output feedback control for nonlinear delayed systems with time-varying full-state constraints

In this article, an adaptive fuzzy output feedback control method is presented for nonlinear time-delay systems with time-varying full state constraints and input saturation. To overcome the problem of time-varying constraints, the integral barrier Lyapunov functions (IBLFs) integrating with dynamic surface control (DSC) are applied for the first time to keep the state from violating constraints. The effects of unknown time delays can be removed by using designed Lyapunov-Krasovskii functions (LKFs). An auxiliary design system is introduced to solve the problem of input saturation. The unknown nonlinear functions are approximated by the fuzzy logic systems (FLS), and the unmeasured states are estimated by a designed fuzzy observer. The novel controller can guarantee that all signals remain semiglobally uniformly ultimately bounded and satisfactory tracking performance is achieved. Finally, two simulation examples illustrate the effectiveness of the presented control methods.

电梯层门的定期检验及案例分析

层门属于电梯的重要部件之一,它把乘客和井道、轿厢进行有效隔离,让乘客拥有一个安全良好的使用空间,有效保障乘梯人员的安全性和舒适性.层门若在带病情况下运行,乘坐电梯的人员将面临严重的安全威胁,甚至造成剪切、坠落等事故,因此乘客的乘梯安全很大程度上取决于电梯层门是否处于正常使用状态.为确保层门能够充分发挥出自身功能,减少甚至避免因层门引起的事故发生,层门的安全检验成为主要的研究对象.简要阐述了层门的结构形式,重点介绍了层门检验的主要对象和检验细节,最后对检验过程中碰到的层门滑块与防脱钩装置不能契合、层门副门锁动作不可靠两则案例进行分析探讨,为后期的检验提供参考.
