Decentralized Implicit Inverse Control for Large-Scale Hysteretic Nonlinear Time-Delay Systems and Its Application on Triple-Axis Giant Magnetostrictive Actuators

This article proposes fuzzy-logic systems (FLSs)-based decentralized adaptive implicit inverse control scheme for a class of large-scale nonlinear systems with time delays and multihysteretic loops. Our novel algorithms feature hysteretic implicit inverse compensators designed to effectively mitigate multihysteretic loops in large-scale systems. In this article, hysteretic implicit inverse compensators can replace the traditional hysteretic inverse models, which are exceedingly difficult to construct, and no longer necessary. The authors provide three contributions: 1) a searching mechanism to obtain the approximate value of the practical input signal from the so-called hysteretic temporary control law; 2) the arbitrarily small $\mathit{L}_{\infty}$ norm of the tracking error attained by utilizing the proposed initializing technique, which applies the combination of FLSs and a finite covering lemma to deal with time delays; and 3) the construction of a triple-axis giant magnetostrictive motion control platform, which validates the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme and algorithms.
