Trade-off comparison of different control approaches (advantage (+)/disadvantage (–)).

Robust Control Adaptive Control Intelligent Control
Disturbance source H2-LQG Proposed Model Reference Adaptive Control (MRAC) Dual Control Neural Networks Control (NNC) Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC)
Machining Parameters (Axis position, Spindle RPM, Feed rate, etc.) (+) Easy to implement Negligible response on the system Low time to reach convergence, process parameters variation is rapid Simple programming Based on expert knowledge
(−) One operative range Difficult to develop Suboptimal solution needed Convergence is time consuming Difficult for MIMO system without adaption
Actuation Parameter Characteristics (+) Easy to implement Negligible response on the system Process parameters variation is rapid Simple programming Extremely simple to implement
(−) One operative range Convergence is time-consuming Extremely difficult to implement Many data to be fitted Difficult for MIMO system without adaption
Missing Information after FE Model Reduction (+) Easy to implement Negligible response on the system Low time to reach convergence Best model uncertainties, simple programming Based on expert knowledge
(−) One operative range Convergence is time-consuming Extremely difficult to implement, suboptimal solution needed Many data to be fitted Difficult for MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) system without adaption
