Nonlinear Observers For Burning Zone Temperatures And Torque Estimation Of The Rotary Cement Kiln., Bhagyashri Aditya Bhagwat
Nonlinear Observers For Burning Zone Temperatures And Torque Estimation Of The Rotary Cement Kiln., Bhagyashri Aditya Bhagwat
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Due to consistent expansion in the infrastructure and housing sectors worldwide have given a new way for the rapid growth of global cement market. Increased global demand for the cement production makes the attractive research topic which can lead to the quality and overall efficiency of the product. Measurement of the temperature in the burning zone is vital to maintain product quality and kiln efficiency in the cement industry. Often the BZT is un-measurable due to internal kiln conditions, dusty environment, extreme heat, harshness for example and this leads to kiln not being driven as efficient as possible. Multi-physics tools …

Geometric State Observers For Autonomous Navigation Systems, Miaomiao Wang
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
The development of reliable state estimation algorithms for autonomous navigation systems is of great interest in the control and robotics communities. This thesis studies the state estimation problem for autonomous navigation systems. The first part of this thesis is devoted to the pose estimation on the Special Euclidean group $\SE(3)$. A generic globally exponentially stable hybrid estimation scheme for pose (orientation and position) and velocity-bias estimation on $\SE(3)\times \mathbb{R}^6$ is proposed. Moreover, an explicit hybrid observer, using inertial and landmark position measurements, is provided.
The second part of this thesis is devoted to the problem of simultaneous estimation of the …
