the use of micro-controllers in actuators provides extended flexibility for on-line data acquisition and sophisticated control implementation. however, attempts to utilize the excellent features of induction motor that is deemed by its strength, robustness, high torque, and relatively low cost in actuators face a fundamental control design challenge. the purpose of this paper is to introduce th...

This paper considers an important model of boundary value problem with a condition at infinity namely combined free and forced convection over a plane of arbitrary shape embedded in a fluid-saturated porous medium; this model admits dual solutions, and uses a technique, which is to some extent modification of homotopy analysis method (HAM), in order to obtain dual solutions analytically with hi...

Because of extreme local saturation at pole tips of excited phase and uncircular shape of rotor and stator, a Swithed Reluctance Motor (SRM) does not have a simple and accurate mathematical model. Therefore, the output control of this motor requires a robust controller which is not based on an accurate model of the process. Fuzzy controllers, to some extent, will satisfy these requirements. Tet...

We consider the inverse reinforcement learning problem, that is, the problem of learning from, and then predicting or mimicking a controller based on state/action data. We propose a statistical model for such data, derived from the structure of a Markov decision process. Adopting a Bayesian approach to inference, we show how latent variables of the model can be estimated, and how predictions ab...

This study aims to achieve rapid and stable control of quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles’ (UAVs) attitude by using an Active Disturbance Rejection Control (ADRC) controller. Addressing the challenge numerous complex ADRC parameters, optimization algorithms are employed for parameter tuning. paper draws on group mechanism Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm innovatively introduces populatio...

Finding good controller settings that satisfy complex design criteria is not trivial. This is also the case for the simple three parameter pid controller. One strategy is to formulate the design problem into an optimization problem. However, when using gradient-based optimization, the algorithm often fails to converge to the optimal solution. In many cases this is a result of inaccuracies in th...

This paper addresses the trajectory tracking control of a nonholonomic wheeled mobile manipulator with parameter uncertainties and disturbances. The proposed algorithm adopts a robust adaptive control strategy where parametric uncertainties are compensated by adaptive update techniques and the disturbances are suppressed. A kinematic controller is first designed to make the robot follow a desir...

In this paper, we propose a PID parameter tuning of particle swarm optimization for multiobjective optimization characteristics of two regional power system PID controller design.

Natural vibration analysis of plates represents an important issue in engineering applications. In this paper, a new and simplify method for vibration analysis of circular and rectangular plates is presented. The design of an effective robust controller, which consistently attenuates transverse vibration of the plate caused by an external disturbance force, is given. The dynamics of the plate i...

increasing water distribution uniformity in micro irrigation systems has been an important subject in applied researches. despite considerable progress in emitters’ construction, some research reports refer to their incapability in water distribution uniformity. in order to achieve greater uniformity in micro irrigation, it is necessary to manufacture emitters with low variation in manufacturin...
