  2. Proportional–integral–derivative controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proportional–integral...

    This is because the "error" term is not the deviation from the setpoint (actual-desired) but is in fact the correction needed (desired-actual). The system is called reverse acting if it is necessary to apply negative corrective action. For instance, if the valve in the flow loop was 100–0% valve opening for 0–100% control output – meaning ...

  3. Open-loop controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-loop_controller

    The PID loop in this situation uses the feedback information to change the combined output to reduce the remaining difference between the process setpoint and the feedback value. Working together, the combined open-loop feed-forward controller and closed-loop PID controller can provide a more responsive control system in some situations.

  4. Control theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_theory

    The PID algorithm in the controller restores the actual speed to the desired speed in an optimum way, with minimal delay or overshoot, by controlling the power output of the vehicle's engine. Control systems that include some sensing of the results they are trying to achieve are making use of feedback and can adapt to varying circumstances to ...

  5. Static synchronous compensator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_synchronous_compensator

    A simplified PID regulator is shown, however a separate closed loop is sometimes used to determine the reference voltage with respect to the slope and any other modes a STATCOM may have. [27] A full PID system can be used, but typically the derivative component is removed (or set very low) to prevent noise from the system or measurements from ...

  6. Inverted pendulum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_pendulum

    The inverted pendulum is a classic problem in dynamics and control theory and is widely used as a benchmark for testing control algorithms (PID controllers, state-space representation, neural networks, fuzzy control, genetic algorithms, etc.). Variations on this problem include multiple links, allowing the motion of the cart to be commanded ...

  7. Valve actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_actuator

    Fluid pressure acting on a piston provides linear thrust for gate or globe valves. A quarter-turn actuator produces torque to provide rotary motion to operate a quarter-turn valve. Most types of hydraulic actuators can be supplied with fail-safe features to close or open a valve under emergency circumstances.

  8. Active disturbance rejection control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_Disturbance...

    ADRC has been successfully used as an alternative to PID control in many applications, such as the control of permanent magnet synchronous motors, [3] thermal power plants [4] and robotics. [5] In particular, the precise control of brushless motors for joint motion is vital in high-speed industrial robot applications. However, flexible robot ...

  9. Trajectory optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trajectory_optimization

    Depending on the configuration, open-chain robotic manipulators require a degree of trajectory optimization. For instance, a robotic arm with 7 joints and 7 links (7-DOF) is a redundant system where one cartesian position of an end-effector can correspond to an infinite number of joint angle positions, thus this redundancy can be used to optimize a trajectory to, for example, avoid any ...
