In this paper a fuzzy logic scheme is applied for direct torque fuzzy control (DTFC) of five phase induction machine (FPIM). The proposed DTFC based on fuzzy logic technique switching table is described and compared with conventional direct torque control (DTC). The proposed fuzzy control strategy is simulated using Matlab/Simulink software. The simulation results show that DTFC method reduces ...

Previous studies have identified two discrete strategies for the control of posture in the sagittal plane based on EMG activations, body kinematics, and ground reaction forces. The ankle strategy was characterized by body sway resembling a single-segment-inverted pendulum and was elicited on flat support surfaces. In contrast, the hip strategy was characterized by body sway resembling a double-...

This paper discusses the suitability of four-phase, five-phase, and six-phase modular machines, for use in applications where servo characteristics and fault tolerance are key requirements. It is shown that an optimum slot number and pole number combination exists, for which excellent servo characteristics could be achieved, under healthy operating conditions, with minimum effects on the power ...

This paper presents Electric Vehicle (EV) propulsion using a three phase squirrel cage induction motor. The motor control at different operating conditions is carried out by a direct torque control technique with an energy optimization strategy. The operating flux of the motor is chosen optimally using model based control strategy. Simulation tests have been carried out using MATLAB SIMULINK to...

Direct Torque Control of induction motor fed drives has become popular and widely used in industries due to fast and good torque response. Induction motors (IM) are simple in construction and are less sensitive to the motor parameters compared to other vector control methods. A new torque and flux control scheme called the direct torque control (DTC) has been introduced for induction motors. In...

The paper presents a super-twisting sliding mode (STSM) regulator with neural networks (NN) of direct power command (DPC) for controlling the active/reactive power of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) using a two-level space vector pulse width modulation (2L-SVPWM). Traditional DPC strategy with proportional-integral (PI) controllers (DPC-PI) has significantly more active/reactive power r...

Fuzzy logic is recently getting increasing emphasis in soft computing applications in the recent days. This paper presents an application of the fuzzy logic scheme to control the speed of an AC servo system & the same is proposed for a space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) inverter-fed permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive. Based on the analysis of the PMSM transient response, a...

The attitude dynamics of a satellite with a large magnetic residual dipole is analysed and the effect of perturbations of the orbital parameters on stability is discussed. The analysis is the basis for the design of an attitude control strategy that minimizes the required control torque while satisfying an absolute pointing error constraint whenever direct compensation of magnetic torque is not...
