Masters Theses

Abstract

"The first paper presents a new approach for online parameter estimation using multiple recursive least squares estimations implemented simultaneously to determine system model parameters, as well as a deadzone and/or deadband. the online adaptive estimation scheme was verified in simulation using MATLAB Simulink and verified experimentally for a DC motor driven cart, an electro-hydraulic pilot valve system, and a free cart loosely coupled to a DC motor driven cart by a pin that fits loosely in a slot...The second paper demonstrates the use of the Mathworks xPC Target environment for validation of a control system and emulation of a physical system using real-time code auto-generated from a simulation environment. A Master/Slave control system is developed for a hydraulic test stand"--Abstract, page iv.
