Cel The principal aim of this research project is to lay the foundation for a new generation of electric drives whose enhanced efficiency is expected to lead to significant cost savings in industry together with an ecological benefit through a reduction in power demands. In addition, sliding mode control may render the closed-loop dynamic response of the control system virtually independent of external disturbances and changes in the dynamics of the mechanism being driven. This leads to another aim: to produce a prototype universal electric drive in which the keyed-in specified closed-loop performance is realised over a wide range of driven dynamics. Only systems facilitating regenerative braking will be considered. First, sliding mode control originated at the Institute of Control Systems (Moscow) by a team of researchers, including those from Laboratory 22 who specialise in electric drives, will be investigated. Bologna has a very strong research base in power electronics and electrical machine control techniques. The group in London is currently undertaking research on a new type of torque actuator embodying the world's first two-dimensional linear induction motor together with sliding mode control laws of the type envisaged in the proposed project. Only civil applications such as drives in factories and traction systems for public transport are being considered. Fundamental research will be carried out on control techniques and power electronic switching strategies supported by digital computer simulations. A complete design of the electro-dynamic hybrid simulator embodying the prototype universal electric drive referred to above, will also be carried out further more in preparation for its fabrication and use during a later phase.
