This study presents a novel controller of magnetic levitation system by using new neuro-fuzzy structures which called flexible neuro-fuzzy systems. In this type of controller we use sliding mode control with neuro-fuzzy to eliminate the Jacobian of plant. At first, we control magnetic levitation system with Mamdanitype neuro-fuzzy systems and logical-type neuro-fuzzy systems separately and then...

In this paper neuro-fuzzy technique is used for the first time in modeling eco-friendly furnace parameters to predict the melting rate of the molten metal required to produce homogenous and quality castings. The relationship between the process variables (input) viz. flame temperature, preheat air temperature, rotational speed of the furnace dome, percentage of excess air, melting time, fuel co...

The design and optimization process of fuzzy controllers can be supported by learning techniques derived from neural networks. Such approaches are usually called neuro-fuzzy systems. In this paper, we describe the application of an updated version of the neuro-fuzzy model NEFCON to a real plant. The NEFCON model is able to learn and optimize the rulebase of a Mamdani-type fuzzy controller onlin...

Much has been written about the lack of transparency of computational intelligence models. This paper investigates the level of transparency of the Takagi-Sugeno neuro-fuzzy model and the Neural Network model by applying them to conflict management, an application which is concerned with causal interpretations of results. The neural network model is trained using the Bayesian framework. It is f...

As a result from the demanding of process safety, reliability and environmental constraints, a called of fault detection and diagnosis system become more and more important. In this article some basic aspects of TSK (Takigi Sugeno Kang) neuro-fuzzy techniques for the prognosis and diagnosis of manufacturing systems are presented. In particular, a neuro-fuzzy model that can be used for the ident...

Short-term prediction of traffic flow is central to alleviating congestion and controlling the negative impacts of environmental pollution resulting from vehicle emissions on both inter- and intra-urban highways. The strong need to monitor and control congestion time and costs for metropolis in developing countries has therefore motivated the current study. This paper establishes the applicatio...

In the present study, fuzzy control of vibration of a hybrid smart composite beam actuated by electro-rheological fluids (ERF) and piezoceramics actuators is investigated. A carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) cantilevered beam containing ERF with bonded piezoceramics is prepared and vibrated forcibly with sinusoidal external excitation. Fuzzy model of controlled element containing two actu...

This paper presents a neuro-fuzzy control strategy with online estimation of Round Trip Time delay for nonlinear Networked Control Systems, first a fuzzy model is identified offline through inputs-states data with delay measurement, therefore, parameters for the estimation of Round Trip Time delay are obtained. The fuzzy control is designed by Linear Quadratic Regulation and a stability analysi...
