摘要：AbstractThis paper presents a modification to L1adaptive control that allows for disturbances entering at the output and application of this control strategy to Managed Pressure Drilling with harmonic disturbances representing the heave motion of a floating drilling rig. By incorporating the disturbance at the output into the reference model, it is shown that the Li adaptive control structure can be left unchanged while the original transient performance bounds are preserved. It is further shown that rejection of the output disturbance can be taken care of entirely in the filter design step of Li adaptive control using the internal model principle. A systematic filter design procedure based on LMIs is provided, that requires only one tuning parameter to be adjusted by the designer. The control design is applied to disturbance attenuation and set-point tracking in the so-called heave problem in oil well drilling. We present experimental results of control system tests in a medium size test facility emulating a 900 m long well.
