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 presents an indirect adaptive system based on neuro-fuzzy approximators for the speed control of induction motors. the uncertainty including parametric variations, the external load disturbance and unmodeled dynamics is estimated and compensated by designing neuro-fuzzy systems. the contribution of this paper is presenting a stability analysis for neuro-fuzzy speed control of inducti...

evolving models have found applications in many real world systems. in this paper, potentials of the evolving linear models (elms) in tracking control design for nonlinear variable structure systems are introduced. at first, an elm is introduced as a dynamic single input, single output (siso) linear model whose parameters as well as dynamic orders of input and output signals can change through ...

This paper presents a hybrid scheme for the control of active and reactive powers using the direct vector control with stator flux orientation (SFO) of the DFIG. The hybrid scheme consists of Fuzzy logic, Reference Signal Tracking (F-RST) controllers. The proposed (F-RST) controller is compared with the classical Proportional-Integral (PI) and the Polynomial (RST) based on the pole placement th...

To overcome the drawbacks of using a traditional proportional‐integral‐derivative (PID) control method for a robot driver system, such as requiring preliminary offline learning, big overshoot and large speed fluctuation, a new method for speed tracking of a robot driver system based on sliding mode control is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the coordinated control model ...

Wind energy is one of the most promising renewable energy resources. Due to instantaneous variations of the wind speed, an appropriate Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) method is necessary for maximizing the captured energy from the wind at different speeds. The most commonly used MPPT algorithms are Tip Speed Ratio (TSR), Power Signal Feedback (PSF), Optimal Torque Control (OTC) and Hill Cli...

Design and implementation of robust tracking controllers for linear feed drive high speed machine tools are the primary objectives of this work. Cutting forces and friction forces limit tracking accuracy and their influences are minimised through robust controller design. This paper discusses the design and tracking performances of a traditional cascade and a sliding mode controller for a X-Y m...
