Fuzzy logic based PID controllers have been studied in this paper, considering several combinations of hybrid controllers by grouping the proportional, integral and derivative actions with fuzzy inferencing in different forms. Fractional order (FO) rate of error signal and FO integral of control signal have been used in the design of a family of decomposed hybrid FO fuzzy PID controllers. The i...

Abstract Complex fractional-order (CFO) transfer functions, being more generalized versions of their real-order counterparts, lend greater flexibility to system modeling. Due the absence commercial complex-order fractance elements, implementation CFO models is challenging. To alleviate this issue, a constrained optimization approach that meets targeted frequency responses proposed for rational ...

Fractional partial differential equations with distributed-order fractional derivatives describe some important physical phenomena. In this paper, we propose a local discontinuous Galerkin (LDG) method for the distributedorder time and Riesz space fractional convection-diffusion and Schrödinger type equations. We prove stability and optimal order of convergence O(h + (∆t) θ 2 + θ) for the distr...

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) model has been extended. We formulate EOQ model as a calculus of variations. This new extended problem is a simple optimal control problem with an unknown initial state. By solving this problem we generalize EOQ formula [1].
