The aim of this paper is to describe the principles of control loop synthesis for linear continuous systems control using classical conventional methods. Different methods of PID controller design are used for different types of continuous systems. These methods are compared in terms of quality of control. Design of PID controller is implemented in MATLAB/Simulink (Graphical User Interface GUI)...

Heat exchanger system is widely used in chemical plants because it can sustain wide range of temperature and pressure. The main purpose of a heat exchanger system is to transfer heat from a hot fluid to a cooler fluid, so temperature control of outlet fluid is of prime importance. To control the temperature of outlet fluid of the heat exchanger system a conventional PID controller can be used. ...

Control engineers have been aware of non-minimum phase systems showing either undershoot or time-delay characteristics for some considerable time (Linoya & Altpeter, 1962; Mita & Yoshida, 1981; Vidyasagar, 1986; Waller & Nygardas, 1975). A number of researchers that addressed this problem from a predictive control point of view mainly followed one of two approaches: a classical (non-optimal) pr...

This paper proposes to control the speed of the permanent magnet (PM) DC motor drive using fuzzy logic control (FLC) based on Matlab simulation environment. The proposed speed controller is developed based on fuzzy logic, to minimize maximum overshoot and steady state error. A comparison study and analysis of proposed fuzzy logic control to classical PID control system applied to PM DC motor is...

To expand the flight envelope of a typical jet transport and to minimize number of tests for the certification process, a design methodology has been proposed based on neural networks. The design procedure leads to an intelligent neuro-controller for landing phase that can handle different wind patterns. The procedure uses, a classical PID controller as the teaching mechanism of a neuro-control...

In this paper, the immune controller, is used to control the paralleled DC-DC converters. A PID controller is first applied and its coefficient is optimized using an intelligent (PSO) algorithm. Immune controller is then added to PID controller and an immune PID controller is formed. Two methods have been suggested to determine non-linear behavior of immune controller. In the first method, an e...

Classical proper PID controllers are designed for linear time invariant plants whose transfer functions are rational functions of s , where 0 < α < 1, and s is the Laplace transform variable. Effect of input–output time delay on the range of allowable controller parameters is investigated. The allowable PID controller parameters are determined from a small gain type of argument used earlier for...

Fractional order dynamic model could model various real materials more adequately than integer order ones and provide a more adequate description of many actual dynamical processes. Fractional order controller is naturally suitable for these fractional order models. In this paper, a fractional order PID controller design method is proposed for a class of fractional order system models. Better p...

In this paper the cascaded fuzzy controller system for quadrotor steering and stabilizing was deliberated. The mathematical model of quadrotor and its cascaded fuzzy controller were simulated using Matlab Simulink software. The fuzzy system was divided into three subsystems for controlling position and speed of the quadrotor and for steering rotation speed of propellers. In the article the squa...

The Inverted Pendulum is one of the most important classical problems of Control Engineering. In this paper, a real-time control for stabilization of inverted pendulum is developed using PID controller. The implementation platform chosen here is FPGA because it exhibits some superior qualities over traditional processors such as parallel processing capability, high sampling rates, flexibility i...
