The Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller is widely used in industries for process control applications. Fractional-order PID controllers are known to outperform their integer-order counterparts. In this paper, we propose a new technique of fractional-order PID controller synthesis based on peak overshoot and rise-time specifications. Our approach is to construct an objective function, th...

In this paper, a computational intelligence method is used for the solution of fractional optimal control problems (FOCP)'s with equality and inequality constraints. According to the Ponteryagin minimum principle (PMP) for FOCP with fractional derivative in the Riemann- Liouville sense and by constructing a suitable error function, we define an unconstrained minimization problem. In the optimiz...

In this paper‎, ‎a modern method is presented to solve a class of fractional optimal control problems (FOCPs) indirectly‎. ‎First‎, ‎the necessary optimality conditions for the FOCP are obtained in the form of two fractional differential equations (FDEs)‎. ‎Then‎, ‎the unknown functions are approximated by the hybrid functions‎, ‎including Bernoulli polynomials and Block-pulse functions based o...

In this paper, the problem under consideration is multiobjective non-linear fractional programming problem involving semilocally convex and related functions. We have discussed the interrelation between the solution sets involving properly efficient solutions of multiobjective fractional programming and corresponding scalar fractional programming problem. Necessary and sufficient optimality...

This paper deals with priority based fuzzy goal programming approach for solving multi-objective linear fractional programming problem. In the model formulation of the problem, we construct the fractional membership functions by determining the optimal solution of the objective functions subject to the system constraints. The fractional membership functions are then transformed into equivalent ...

Bilevel programs are optimization problems which have a subset of their variables constrained to be an optimal solution of another problem parameterized by the remaining variables. They have been applied to decentralized planning problems involving a decision process with a hierarchical structure. This paper considers the linear fractional/quadratic bilevel programming (LFQBP) problem, in which...

An approach is presented to solve a fuzzy transportation problem with linear fractional fuzzy objective function. In this proposed approach the fractional fuzzy transportation problem is decomposed into two linear fuzzy transportation problems. The optimal solution of the two linear fuzzy transportations is solved by dual simplex method and the optimal solution of the fractional fuzzy transport...
