A Model Reference Adaptive Control of a Magnetorheological Fluid Brake

Abstract:

The paper describes an experimental/theoretical activity that involves a magnetorheological fluid brake (MRFB). The variability affecting the plant parameters suggests the employment of a model reference adaptive control finalized to regulate the braking torque. This feedback control method is able to minimize the tracking error in presence of a plant characterized by a known dynamics and uncertain parameters. Numerical simulations have been carried out and the obtained results confirm the goodness of the proposed approach.
