Pressure-Difference Control Method for the Pump Set of a Pile-Bottom Sediment Cleaning Robot Based on Flow-Balance Feedforward Compensation

This paper proposes and validates a flow-balance feedforward fuzzy-PID control method for the pump set of a pile-bottom sediment cleaning robot, demonstrating through simulations that it significantly reduces pressure difference peak deviations and settling times compared to traditional PID and fuzzy-PID controllers under various inflow and flow disturbances.

Voltage regulation control for V2G bidirectional interleaved converters based on a cascaded extended state observer

This paper proposes an improved voltage regulation controller for V2G bidirectional interleaved converters that utilizes a cascaded extended state observer with a two-layer third-order nested architecture and cross-layer feedforward mechanism to effectively balance noise suppression and steady-state accuracy while outperforming traditional control methods in dynamic tracking and disturbance rejection.

Human-centric multi-objective optimisation of operator safety and productivity

This study employs multi-objective metaheuristic optimization to identify cutting parameters that balance operator safety (minimizing heart rate and perceived risk) with productivity (maximizing material removal rate) in milling operations, revealing that the Genetic Algorithm offers the best trade-off while feed rate is the primary driver of operator stress.
