An Optimized Fractional-Order PID Horizontal Vibration Control Approach for a High-Speed Elevator

Due to factors such as uneven guide rails and airflow disturbance in the hoistway, high-speed elevators may experience significant vibrations during operation. This paper proposes an optimized fractional-order PID (FOPID) method to suppress vibrations of high-speed elevators. First, an accurate hori...

description Due to factors such as uneven guide rails and airflow disturbance in the hoistway, high-speed elevators may experience significant vibrations during operation. This paper proposes an optimized fractional-order PID (FOPID) method to suppress vibrations of high-speed elevators. First, an accurate horizontal vibration model is established for the elevator car, in which the car frame and body are separate. Then, taking the control cost and the system performance as objective functions, we obtained an optimized FOPID controller based on multi-objective genetic algorithm optimization. Finally, the effectiveness of the controller in reducing elevator vibration was verified through numerical simulation. The results indicate that the horizontal acceleration controlled by the FOPID controller is reduced by about 68% compared to the case without a controller and about 25% compared to the conventional PID controller.
