State Dependent Riccati Equation Based Filtering and Control of a Magnetorheological Fluid Brake
Authors: , ,
Abstract: A theoretical/experimental activity has been carried out on a magnetorheologicalfluid brake prototype. A non-linear observer and an optimal control have been designed andtested on the physical device. Both the feedback control and the state observer are based onthe state dependent Riccati equation technique.A first order non-linear dynamic model hasbeen derived and adopted for the development of the braking torque control system.Simulation results confirm the goodness of theproposed control scheme which effectivenesshas been evaluated by means of hardware in the loop tests.
