Control Moment Gyroscopes (CMG) are used as actuators in some applications such as attitude control of satellites, stabilization of two-wheeled vehicles, to avoid a ship from swaying, among others.<\/p>\n

The LCA (Applied Control Laboratory in english) has an ECP (Educational Control Products) CMG unit, model 750, which has a versatile structure with up to 4 degrees of freedom (DOF), that generates from SISO (Single-Input Single-Output) systems with one DOF, for linear control techniques applications, till MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) systems with four DOF, for nonlinear control techniques applications.<\/p>\n

This electromechanical plant is composed of four rigid bodies (Bodies A, B, C and D, shown in the figure below), whose angular positions are measured by incremental encoders (Encoders A, B, C and D), and two DC motors (Motors # 1 and # 2). Motor # 1 rotates Body D, a bronze axisymmetric disc, and Motor # 2 rotates Body C, and Bodies B and A rotate only through the reactions generated in the structure.<\/p>\n

Three articles were published by members of the LCA, from which on was in the Journal of Control, Automation and Electrical Systems<\/a> and two in conferences, ASME<\/a> and CBA<\/a>. The student FAbio Y. Toriumi developed his Master’s thesis in this plant, and his text can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
