In this study, swing up and stabilization of on/off type of cold gas thruster driven inverted pendulum is accomplished. First, pulse width modulator (PWM) design method is generated to obtain quasi-linear thrust output from on/off type of thruster. Than, single axis angle controller is designed. Designed angle controller and PWM scheme are tested and verified on single axis angle control test setup. Finally, an other freedom is attached to single axis test setup and rotary inverted pendulum (Furuta Pendulum) is obtained. By this way inherently unstable, under-actuated and on/off driven system is obtained. For swing up motion, energy method is applied. Balancing of the pendulum is achieved by observer based state feedback controller under small angle assumption and quasi-linear output from PWM driven thrusters.

Cyclic behaviour of precast beam-to-column connections: An experimental and numerical investigation
Torra-Bilal, Ines; Mahamid, Mustafa; Baran, Eray (2022-01-01)
The main objective of this study is to examine the behavior of hybrid beam-column connections with numerous detailing methods to be incorporated in precast moment resisting frames under simulate reversed cyclic loading, which will lead to better understanding of their performance and safer seismic applications. To accomplish the research objectives, an integrated experimental and numerical study was conducted. The experimental part consisted of reversed cyclic loading of precast concrete beam-column specime...
Seismic performance of chevron braced steel frames with and without viscous fluid dampers as a function of ground motion and damper characteristics
Dicleli, Murat (Elsevier BV, 2007-08-01)
This study is aimed at comparing the seismic performance of steel chevron braced frames (CBFs) with and without viscous fluid dampers (VFDs) as a function of the intensity and frequency characteristics of the ground motion and VFD parameters. For this purpose, comparative nonlinear time history (NLTH) analyses of single and multiple story CBFs with and without VFDs are conducted using ground motions with various frequency characteristics scaled to represent small, moderate and large intensity earthquakes. A...
