Introduction   ignore

In this document, a Simscape (.e.g. multi-body) model of the ESRF Double Crystal Monochromator (DCM) is presented and used to develop and optimize the control strategy.

It is structured as follow:

• Section sec:dcm_kinematics: the kinematics of the DCM is presented, and Jacobian matrices which are used to solve the inverse and forward kinematics are computed.
• Section sec:open_loop_identification: the system dynamics is identified in the absence of control.
• Section sec:dcm_noise_budget: an open-loop noise budget is performed.
• Section sec:active_damping_strain_gauges: it is studied whether if the strain gauges fixed to the piezoelectric actuators can be used to actively damp the plant.
• Section sec:active_damping_iff: piezoelectric force sensors are added in series with the piezoelectric actuators and are used to actively damp the plant using the Integral Force Feedback (IFF) control strategy.
• Section sec:hac_iff: the High Authority Control - Low Authority Control (HAC-LAC) strategy is tested on the Simscape model.

Bragg Angle

There is a simple relation eqref:eq:bragg_angle_formula between:

• $d_{\text{off}}$ is the wanted offset between the incident x-ray and the output x-ray
• $\theta_b$ is the bragg angle
• $d_z$ is the corresponding distance between the first and second crystals

\begin{equation} \label{eq:bragg_angle_formula} d_z = \frac{d_{\text{off}}}{2 cos θ_b}

\end{equation}

This relation is shown in Figure fig:jack_motion_bragg_angle.

Kinematics (311 Crystal)

Introduction   ignore

The reference frame is taken at the center of the 311 second crystal.

Interferometers - 311 Crystal

Three interferometers are pointed to the bottom surface of the 311 crystal.

The position of the measurement points are shown in Figure fig:sensor_311_crystal_points as well as the origin where the motion of the crystal is computed.

Inverse Kinematics - Interferometers

From the Figure fig:sensor_311_crystal_points, the inverse kinematics can be solved as follow (for small motion):

\begin{equation} \bm{J}_{s,311} = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0.07 & -0.015 \\ 1 & 0 & 0.015 \\ 1 & -0.07 & -0.015 \end{bmatrix} \end{equation}

Open Loop System Identification

Introduction   ignore

Identification

Let's considered the system $\bm{G}(s)$ with:

• 3 inputs: force applied to the 3 fast jacks
• 3 outputs: measured displacement by the 3 interferometers pointing at the 111 second crystal

It is schematically shown in Figure fig:schematic_system_inputs_outputs.

7.7944e-09	-3.9252e-17	1.834e-07

This results in a coupled system. The main reason is that, as we map forces to the center of the 111 crystal and not at the center of mass/stiffness of the moving part, vertical forces will induce rotation and torques will induce vertical motion.

The comparison of the amplitude spectral density of the measurement noise and of the jack parasitic motion is performed in Figure fig:open_loop_noise_budget_fast_jack. It confirms that the sensor noise is low enough to measure the motion errors of the crystal.

Bode Plot of the transfer functions from piezoelectric forces to strain gauges measuremed displacements

As the distance between the poles and zeros in Figure fig:iff_plant_bode_plot is very small, little damping can be actively added using the strain gauges. This will be confirmed using a Root Locus plot.

Relative Active Damping

Krad_g1 = eye(3)*s/(s^2/(2*pi*500)^2 + 2*s/(2*pi*500) + 1);

As can be seen in Figure fig:relative_damping_root_locus, very little damping can be added using relative damping strategy using strain gauges.

Controller - Root Locus

We want to have integral action around the resonances of the system, but we do not want to integrate at low frequency. Therefore, we can use a low pass filter.

Damped Plant

Both the Open Loop dynamics (see Figure fig:schematic_jacobian_frame_fastjack) and the dynamics with IFF (see Figure fig:schematic_jacobian_frame_fastjack_iff) are identified.

We are here interested in the dynamics from $\bm{u}^\prime = [u_{u_r}^\prime,\ u_{u_h}^\prime,\ u_d^\prime]$ (input of the damped plant) to $\bm{d}_{\text{fj}} = [d_{u_r},\ d_{u_h},\ d_d]$ (motion of the crystal expressed in the frame of the fast-jacks). This is schematically represented in Figure fig:schematic_jacobian_frame_fastjack_iff.

Use of Jacobian matrices to obtain the system in the frame of the fastjacks

The dynamics from $\bm{u}$ to $\bm{d}_{\text{fj}}$ (open-loop dynamics) and from $\bm{u}^\prime$ to $\bm{d}_{\text{fs}}$ are compared in Figure fig:comp_damped_undamped_plant_iff_bode_plot. It is clear that the Integral Force Feedback control strategy is very effective in damping the resonances of the plant.

System Identification

Let's identify the damped plant.

Bode Plot of the plant for the High Authority Controller (transfer function from $\bm{u}^\prime$ to $\bm{\epsilon}_d$)

High Authority Controller

Let's design a controller with a bandwidth of 100Hz. As the plant is well decoupled and well approximated by a constant at low frequency, the high authority controller can easily be designed with SISO loop shaping.

%% Controller design
wc = 2*pi*100; % Wanted crossover frequency [rad/s]
a = 2; % Lead parameter

Khac = diag(1./diag(abs(evalfr(G_dp, 1j*wc)))) * ... % Diagonal controller
        wc/s * ... % Integrator
        1/(sqrt(a))*(1 + s/(wc/sqrt(a)))/(1 + s/(wc*sqrt(a))) * ... % Lead
        1/(s^2/(4*wc)^2 + 2*s/(4*wc) + 1); % Low pass filter

%% Save the HAC controller
save('mat/Khac_iff.mat', 'Khac');

%% Loop Gain
L_hac_lac = G_dp * Khac;

Bode Plot of the Loop gain for the High Authority Controller

As shown in the Root Locus plot in Figure fig:loci_hac_iff_fast_jack, the closed loop system should be stable.

Root Locus for the High Authority Controller

Performances

In order to estimate the performances of the HAC-IFF control strategy, the transfer function from motion errors of the stepper motors to the motion error of the crystal is identified both in open loop and with the HAC-IFF strategy.

It is first verified that the closed-loop system is stable:

isstable(T_hl)

1

And both transmissibilities are compared in Figure fig:stepper_transmissibility_comp_ol_hac_iff.

Comparison of the transmissibility of errors from vibrations of the stepper motor between the open-loop case and the hac-iff case.

The HAC-IFF control strategy can effectively reduce the transmissibility of the motion errors of the stepper motors. This reduction is effective inside the bandwidth of the controller.

Close Loop noise budget

Let's compute the amplitude spectral density of the jack motion errors due to the sensor noise, the actuator noise and disturbances.

%% Computation of ASD of contribution of inputs to the closed-loop motion
% Error due to disturbances
asd_d = abs(squeeze(freqresp(Wd*(1/(1 + G_dp(1,1)*Khac(1,1))), f, 'Hz')));
% Error due to actuator noise
asd_u = abs(squeeze(freqresp(Wu*(G_dp(1,1)/(1 + G_dp(1,1)*Khac(1,1))), f, 'Hz')));
% Error due to sensor noise
asd_n = abs(squeeze(freqresp(Wn*(G_dp(1,1)*Khac(1,1)/(1 + G_dp(1,1)*Khac(1,1))), f, 'Hz')));

The closed-loop ASD is then:

%% ASD of the closed-loop motion
asd_cl = sqrt(asd_d.^2 + asd_u.^2 + asd_n.^2);

The obtained ASD are shown in Figure fig:close_loop_asd_noise_budget_hac_iff.

Closed Loop noise budget

Let's compare the open-loop and close-loop cases (Figure fig:cps_comp_ol_cl_hac_iff).
