    Increased Power Output from Piezoelectric Energy Harvesters by Pre-Biasing

    , PowerMEMS 2009, Pages: 75-78, ISSN: 2151-3155

    This paper presents, for the first time, experimental results demonstrating a new approach to increasing the power output of piezoelectric energy harvesters by applying a bias charge at the beginning of each half cycle of motion. Ultimate power limits of inertial energy harvesters depend only on the device size and nature of the excitation, rather than on the transduction mechanism. However, practical devices generally perform well below the theoretical limit, often because a sufficiently high transducer damping force cannot be achieved. For suchcases, we show that the generator effectiveness is improved by a pre-biasing technique, and present simulationresults with experimental verification. These results show that the effectiveness of the piezoelectric generator isimproved by more than 10 times compared to an optimised purely resistive load. In practice our gains were limited by the voltage breakdown of the components used.

    Fault detection and isolation for linear discrete-time systems using input/output measurement analysis

    , IEEE Conference on Decision and Control, Publisher: IEEE, Pages: 4908-4913, ISSN: 0191-2216

    In this work, a new approach to fault detection and isolation is proposed for linear discrete-time systems subject to faults and bounded additive disturbances using a system model, together with input/output measurements over a finite estimation horizon. We use the proposed method to compute upper and lower bounds on the faults. These bounds are the tightest possible given the system model, input/output measurements and the bounds on the initial state and disturbances. Linear programming optimization techniques are used to obtain the bounds. Moreover, a subsequent-state-estimation technique, together with an estimation horizon update procedure are given to allow the fault detection and isolation process to be repeated in an iterative procedure. Finally, the approach is verified using a numerical example.

    Integrated Design of Dynamic Controller with Fault Diagnosis and Tolerance

    , MEDITERRANEAN CONFERENCE ON CONTROL & AUTOMATION, Publisher: IEEE, 345 E 47TH ST, NEW YORK, NY 10017 USA, Pages: 694-699

    Fault detection capability tends to become an integral part of control system design procedures for practical engineering systems. It is thus desirable fault diagnosis/tolerance functions to also be included in the controller design. In this context, we develop a generic observer-based feedback controller where the observer-part can also generate a residual signal for fault detection purposes. The design objectives is a mixture of H-infinity, control and H-infinity, fault detection and isolation. This multi-objective optimization problem is then formulated using Bilinear Matrix In-equalities (BMI) and a sub-optimal solution is achieved via transformation to Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMI). The developed approach and algorithm are verified in study of an application to a railway suspension system of ride quality maintenance.
