In this article several control schemes for a pilot scale polymerization reactor are proposed and one of them is selected as the most suitable design. The performances of proposed schemes have been compared through computer simulations. The controllers are PID and Chosen reaction is polymerization of methyl methacrylate which is highly exothermic.

the heterogeneous fixed fleet open vehicle routing problem (hffovrp) is one of the most significant extension problems of the open vehicle routing problem (ovrp). the hffovrp is the problem of designing collection routes to a number of predefined nodes by a fixed fleet number of vehicles with various capacities and related costs. in this problem, the vehicle doesn’t return to the depot after se...

This paper reports on research for extending the Cooperative Control Synthesis methodology to include a more accurate modeling of the pilot's controller dynamics. Cooperative Control Synthesis (CCS) is a methodology that addresses the problem of how to design control laws for piloted, high-order, multivariate systems and/or nonconventional dynamic con gurations in the absence of ying qualities ...

Small radio controlled (R/C) rotary-wing UAVs have many potential military and civilian applications, but can be very difficult to fly. Small and lightweight sensors and computers can be used to implement a control system to make these vehicles easier to fly. To develop a control system for a small UAV, an 8-bit microcontroller has been interfaced with MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) gy...

vehicle driveline system and its working accuracy play an important role in the performance of car. the purpose of this study is to provide an appropriate mechanism for investigating, identifying and determining the position and size of defects in the vehicle power transmission system. this is based on the patterns of the residual signal, obtained from a simulated model of the system. neuro-fuz...

Objective: To Automate the system of vehicle verification on roads and to take punitive measures without human intervention. Providing the police and the government a powerful tool to keep a track of registered vehicles, their drivers and validity has been a daunting task. Manned police checkpoints are placed to establish the validity of a vehicles registration, and driver’s license. This proce...

A new approach is suggested to define and evaluate key metrics as to autonomous aerial vehicle performance. This approach entails the conceptual definition of a “Turing Test” for UAVs. Such a “UAV Turing test” would be conducted by means of mission simulations and/or tailored flight demonstrations of vehicles under the guidance of their autonomous system software. These autonomous vehicle missi...

The AGV (automated guided vehicle) was introduced in UK in 1953 for transporting. But nowadays, due to their high efficiency, flexibility, reliability, safety and system scalability, they are used in various application in industries. In brief, the AGV robot is a system which typically made up of vehicle chassis, embedded controller, motors, drivers, navigation and collision avoidance sensors, ...

in this paper, the effects of roll center height of mcpherson suspension mechanism on dynamic behaviour of a vehicle is studied first and then the optimum location of roll center of this suspension system is determined for a conceptual class a vehicle. adams/car software was used for analysis of vehicle dynamic behaviour in different positions of suspension roll center, then optimization proces...
