Temperature is a universe and significant data in production and scientific experiment, effective measurement and control of the temperature are widely applied in every part of national economy. Therefore, temperature control has great significance; relevant requirements regarding temperature control are also higher and higher. Temperature command system for animal house is a complex system wit...

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is extensively used for real parameter optimization in diverse fields of study. This paper describes an application of PSO to the problem of designing a fractional-order proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller whose parameters comprise proportionality constant, integral constant, derivative constant, integral order (λ) and derivative order (δ). The pr...

After the development of fuzzy logic, an important application of it was developed in control systems and it is known as fuzzy PID controllers. They represent interest in order to be applied in practical applications instead of the linear PID controllers, in the feedback control of a variety of processes, due to their advantages imposed by the non-linear behavior. The design of fuzzy PID contro...

In this paper, an attempt is made to apply the African Buffalo Optimization (ABO) to tune the parameters of a PID controller for an effective Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR). Existing metaheuristic tuning methods have been proven to be quite successful but there were observable areas that need improvements especially in terms of the system's gain overshoot and steady steady state errors. Usin...

<span>In this paper, the efficiency of photovoltaic panels is improved by adding a sun tracking system. The solar system used for so that always faces sun. This uses dual axis consisting horizontal rotation and vertical axis. rotational motion to follow azimuth angle from north south. Then, sun's east west motion. Both types movements are controlled using PID controller optimized with an ...

Cutter Suction Dredgers (CSDs) are a special type of ships designed for construction and maintenance projects ocean offshore engineering. During the dredging operation, CSDs can excavate nearly all kinds soil on sea bed, then dredged materials with coarse particles need to be sucked up by slurry pump transported disposal area through long-distance pipeline. In order avoid sedimentation in pipel...

Although many PID tuning approaches are available, it is not easy to find a method that does not require any engineer/operator interference. In this work, we present a fully automated approach for PID tuning based on relay feedback. This method involves sending the relay feedback test data from PLCs (Programmable Logic Controller) into a historian, analyzing the test data using a tuning applica...

SMC (sliding mode control) has been widely employed to compensate for the system uncertainty and disturbance. However, the chattering problem, caused by the discontinuous characteristic of switching function used in traditional SMC, greatly deteriorates the performance of SMC and has become the main limitation for its applications. Also, implementing the SMC in digital systems could make it eve...

Activity of the serine-threonine protein kinase PINOID (PID) has been implicated in the asymmetrical localization of the membrane-associated PINFORMED (PIN) family of auxin transport facilitators. However, the means by which PID regulates PIN protein distribution is unknown. We have used recombinant PID protein to dissect the regulation of PID activity in vitro. We demonstrate that intramolecul...

In this paper, the gravitational search algorithm (GSA) is proposed as a method for controlling opening and closing of airplane wing tires. The GSA used to find optimum proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller, which controls tires during take-off landing. addition, suggested an approach overcoming absence transfer function, usually required design PID. use expected improve system. Two...
