Calculation of regulators for the problems of mechatronics by means of the numerical optimization method

Methods for numerical optimization of regulators has a number of advantages as compared with the analytical methods. The use of modern software, together with well-known and newest methods of forming of the optimization criteria in the form of cost functions provides a set of methods, successfully tested on a number of tasks. These methods, in contrast to analytical ones, allow effectively calculation of robust regulators for objects even in the case of the simultaneous presence in these of non-linear elements, units of lag, discrete elements (such as sampling-and-hold analog storage) and other complicating singularities.
