this paper presents designing an optimal adaptive controller for tracking control of robot manipulators based on particle swarm optimization (pso) algorithm. pso algorithm has been employed to optimize parameters of the controller and hence to minimize the integral square of errors (ise) as a performance criteria. in this paper, an improved pso using logic is proposed to increase the convergenc...

This paper examines a novel aerial platform utilizing fuzzy logic control with evolutionary tuning. First the new vehicle is introduced, then its dynamics are described. The development process and simulation techniques are then discussed. The fuzzy logic controller derived from the simulations is explained and then the physical vehicle built on the simulation model is examined. Finally, the te...

This article first reminds of simulation unification, a non-standard unification proposed at the 18th International Conference on Logic Programming (ICLP 2002) for making logic programming capable of querying semistructured data on the Web. This article further argues that, beyond querying semistructured data on the Web, simulation unification has a potential for Web querying of multimedia data...

In this paper we propose an approach to improve the direct torque control (DTC) of an induction motor (IM). The proposed DTC is based on fuzzy logic technique switching table, is described compared with conventional direct torque control (DTC). To test the fuzzy control strategy a simulation platform using MATLAB/SIMULINK was built which includes induction motor d-q model, inverter model, fuzzy...
