In this work, the Extended Circle Criterion and fuzzy approaches are combined to develop a practical technique for checking stability of Fuzzy Control Systems (FCS). The controller is designed on the basis of skilled operator criteria and engineering knowledge about the process. Afterwards, stability is verified by means of the so-called Extended Circle Criterion, under the assumption that the static characteristic of the controller is sector-bounded (nonlinear portion) and the process (linear portion) can be rendered Strictly Positive Real (SPR). The method is tested in a FCS applied to the milling process. Theoretical and experimental results show that the closed loop system is stable. |
