In this article we study the convergence of the positions of a multi-agent system in a cyclic pursuit under asynchronism and time delays. Each agent is assumed to operate on an infinite sequence of behaviors modeled by a finite state machine, which is represented by a discrete asynchronous mathematical model on a higher-level. The results on the convergence of the synchronous model are used in the proof of convergence of the asynchronous system. Numerical simulations are also performed to verify the theoretical results.

Speed sensorless vector control of induction motor drive
Özçelik, Eray; Ersak, Aydın; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2005)
Focus of this work is closed-loop speed control of an induction machine based on direct field-oriented control (DFOC) algorithm, using estimates of speed and flux observers which utilize only stator current and voltage. Theoretical bases of the algorithms are explained in detail and their performances are investigated with simulations and experiments. Field Orientated Control is based on projections which transform a threephase time and speed dependent system into a two co-ordinate time invariant system. Th...
Control allocation against actuator failures in overactuated small satellites
Kahraman, Özgür; Tekinalp, Ozan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2007)
In this thesis, attitude control of small satellites with dissimilar actuator is studied and the effects of control allocation methods on maneuvering are examined in detail. Magnetorquers and reaction wheels are considered as the actuators of a modeled remote sensing -nadir pointing- small satellite. Matlab® Simulink simulation models are developed to model the satellite dynamics and the actuators on the satellite. The simulations are based on conceptual RASAT satellite, and, for verification, orbit data is...
Vibration Fatigue Analysis of a Cantilever Beam Using Different Fatigue Theories
Eldoğan, Yusuf; Ciğeroğlu, Ender (2014-02-11)
In this study, vibration fatigue analysis of a cantilever beam is performed using an in-house numerical code. Finite element model (FEM) of the cantilever beam verified by tests is used for the analysis. Several vibration fatigue theories are used to obtain fatigue life of the cantilever beam for white noise random input and the results obtained are compared with each other. Fatigue life calculations are repeated for different damping ratios and the effect of damping ratio is studied. Moreover, using strain...
Comparison of axial flux and radial flux brushless dc motor topologies for control moment gyroscope wheel applications
Yılmaz, Kurtuluş; Saranlı, Afşar; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2009)
In this thesis axial flux and radial flux brushless dc motors will be studied as a drive motor for the control of moment gyroscope wheel. Design equations for axial flux and radial flux brushless dc motor topologies will be reviewed. Based on these equations radial and axial flux motors with different number of poles will be designed that meet control moment gyroscope wheel application requirements. The results will be evaluated in terms of efficiency, torque/mass and torque/volume, and suitability for the ...
