UPS professor Byron Lima, a member of the Contol Systems and Robotics Research Group (Grupo de Investigación en Sistemas de Control y Robótica -GISCOR), presented the research titled ""Modelado y estudio comparativo de controladores lineales y no lineales para un péndulo invertido rotativo" during the 13th European Workshop on Advanced Control and Diagnosis that took place in Lille Catholic University, in France.

This international event has been held since 2003 and is attended by professors and engineers from several fields of automation; it allows participants to exchange their knowledge regarding new tendencies in control and diagnosis in the field of engineering. 

Professor Lima conducted a comparative study on the results of linear or non linear Proportional Integral Derivative (PID). Additionally, there is a model of the system , some parameters in the plant have been estimated by using computer aided design (CAD) and experimental methods and techniques proposed by several authors.

"The control algorithms are evaluated in the Rotational Inverted Pendulum (RIP) system, using performance and energy consumption indexes, which allow to classify control strategies according to their performance," said Lima.

With this research, UPS can have a base of knowledge related to the implementation and design of nonlinear controllers which can be applied in other different mechatronic systems, he said.

The GISCOR research group, made up by professor Ricardo Cajo, Victor Huilcapi, Byron Lima and Wilton Agila, works on creating algorithmic models that help improve electronic control processes and robotic applications.

The paper will be presented in the IOP Journal of Physics: Conference Series.
