This paper presents a development of a self-tuning fuzzy PID controller to overcome the appearance of nonlinearities and uncertainties in the system. The self-tuning fuzzy PID controller is the combination of a classical PID and fuzzy controller. The controller is designed based on the expert knowledge of the system. Fuzzy logic is used to tune each parameter of PID controller. Appropriate fuzz...

A fuzzy control design method for four-wheel-steering vehicles, using fuzzy models, is presented. The design model is obtained from a vehicle model using fuzzy modeling approach. In the first step of the controller design, an optimal steering controller is proposed for each local model using LQR method. Then, the local controllers are combined using fuzzy rules to form a fuzzy controller. In th...

Abstract: In this paper, a type-2 fuzzy adaptive controller of a Lotak-Volterra system is considered. For bettering the active system properly, the approximated error is introduced into the design of the controller. By using Lyapunov synthesis approach, we attain an adaptive law adjusting the free parameters in the controller such that the closed-loop system follows a desired trajectory. The no...

New trends and the effect of key factors influence the quality of the holes produced by ECM processes. Researchers developed a fuzzy logic controller by adding intelligence to the ECM process. Maintaining optimum ECM process conditions ensures higher machining efficiency and performance. This paper presents the development of a fuzzy logic controller to add intelligence to the ECM process. An e...

Vehicle classification is an important parameter in Road Traffic Management System. The paper includes vehicle classification using signals from different sensors, process and mix those signals, to extract features helpful to identify vehicle class and also its speed. The important features needed are axle distance, length of vehicle, height of chassis and occupancy time. These features are the...

This paper focusses on the application of fuzzy control techniques (fuzzy type-1 and type-2) and their hybrid forms (Hybrid adaptive fuzzy controller and fuzzy-PID controller) in the area of stabilized platforms. It represents an attempt to cover the basic principles and concepts of fuzzy control in stabilization and position control, with an outline of a number of recent applications used in a...

The main objective of this study is to provide a valid and effective approach for the design and development of an adaptive type-2 fuzzy controller (AT2FLC), based on the analysis of the nonlinear process dynamics and the use of an ANFIS technique for the optimization of the controller. The performance of the obtained AT2FLC, characterized by a few number of rules, is higher than the performanc...

the ball and beam system is one of the most popular laboratory setups for control education. in this paper, we design a fuzzy pd cascade controller for a ball and beam system using asexual reproduction optimization (aro) technique. the ball & beam system consists of a servo motor, a grooved beam, and a rolling ball. this system utilizes a servo motor to control ball’s position on the beam. chan...

We introduce a fuzzy controller which uses a fuzzy rule base diierently to the classical Mamdani approach. We argue that it has several desirable and well-motivated properties which often cannot be obtained by a Mamdani controller. Let X and Y denote the input and the output space, respectively, and let F(:) denote the collection of all fuzzy subsets. The support of a fuzzy set A 2 F(X) is Supp...
