Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Control and automation in their broadest sense play a fundamental role in process industries. Automatic control systems involve mathematics more than is usual in other engineering disciplines. Even though the subject has a strong mathematical foundation, emphasis throughout the literature is not on mathematical rigor or formal derivation (unless they contribute to the understanding of the concept) but, instead, on the methods of application associated with the analysis and design of the feedback system. Advances in sensors, actuators, computation technology, and communication networks help provide the necessary tools for the implementation of control hardware. Practical applications for this control method are aimed toward a variety of relevant scientific research fields that incorporate robotics and automation in applications. The scope of this Special Issue is to present and discuss new trends in the design, control, and applications of control systems, robots, and mechatronic systems.

The aim of this Special Issue is to provide an opportunity for international researchers to share and review recent advances in the foundations, integration architectures, and applications of control systems and robotics. The Special Issue aims to solicit original, full-length articles on new findings and developments from researchers, academics, and industrial practitioners in the field of control systems and robotics.

We welcome original high-quality papers previously unpublished that address recent results for complex systems (nonlinear dynamic systems, complex dynamic networks, stochastic systems, chaotic nonlinear systems, complex mechanical structures, robots, etc.).

In this paper, a loop shaping controller design methodology for single input and a single output (SISO) system is proposed. The theoretical background for this approach is based on complex elliptic functions which allow a flexible design of a SISO controller considering that elliptic functions have a double periodicity. The gain and phase margins of the closed-loop system can be selected appropriately with this new loop shaping design procedure. The loop shaping design methodology consists of implementing suitable filters to obtain a desired frequency response of the closed-loop system by selecting appropriate poles and zeros by the Abel theorem that are fundamental in the theory of the elliptic functions. The elliptic function properties are implemented to facilitate the loop shaping controller design along with their fundamental background and contributions from the complex analysis that are very useful in the automatic control field. Finally, apart from the filter design, a PID controller loop shaping synthesis is proposed implementing a similar design procedure as the first part of this study. Full article
