∗ Undergraduate Research Participants Abstract The roots of ATLAS (Argonne Tandem-Linac Accelerator System) date back to the early 1960’s. Located at the Argonne National Laboratory, the accelerator has been designated a National User Facility, which focuses primarily on heavy-ion nuclear physics. Like the accelerator it services, the control system has been in a constant state of evolution. Th...

The major part of the GARFIELD apparatus electronics are monitored and set up through a slow control system, which has been developed at LNL. A software package based on Lab View has been dedicated to the setting and control of 16 channels integrated Amplifiers and Constant Fraction Discriminators. GPIB controllers and GPIB-ENET interfaces have been used for the communication between the Person...

This article presents a personal computer-based control system for an electrical stimulator using fuzzy logic. The input signal comes from a goniometer and the output is the stimulation level to be applied in the muscle of the patient. By this way, that control system is made for the therapist that just specifies the desired joint angle. The movement that the patient will execute can be imitate...

in this paper an optimal controller is proposed for a self-balancing electrical vehicle called segway pt. this vehicle has one platform and two wheels on the sides and the rider stands on the platform. a handlebar, as a navigator, is attached to the body of segway, with which the rider controls the vehicle. since segway uses electrical energy produced by batteries, resource consumption manageme...

The advancement of using the Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods and techniques in design the Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITSs) makes the understanding them more difficult, so that the teachers are less and less prepared to accept these systems. As a result, the gap between the researchers in the field of ITSs and the educational community is constantly widening. While ITSs are becoming more...
