a chaos control method suggested by erjaee has been reviewed. it has been shown that thistechnique can be applied in various evolutionary systems of 2-dimensional types. the method has beenapplied for cases of the henon map, as well as burger’s map. the limitations of the control techniquehave also been discussed by considering the standard map and the gumowski-mira map. the resultsobtained thr...

omotopy analysis method (ham) is a promising method for handling func-tional equations. recent publications proved the eectiveness of ham in solvingwide variety of problems in dierent elds. ham has a unique property whichmakes it superior to other analytic methods, this property is its ability to con-trol the convergence region of the solution series. in this work, we clari ed theadvantages ...

This paper presents a novel reconfigurable control method for an aircraft with potential actuator failures. A Variable Structure Model Reference Adaptive Control (VSMRAC) scheme is deployed to counteract the adverse effects when the actuator failure occurs. Combined with exponential reaching law, the convergence rate is improved and the chattering is reduced. This approach ensures that the refe...

This paper proposes a control method for wheels to pass over rough terrain. In our previous work, we have developed a holonomic mobile mechanism capable of running over steps. The mechanism realizes omni-directional motion on a flat floor and passes over uneven ground in forward and backward directions. The vehicle has seven special wheels with cylindrical free rollers and two passive body axes...

Communication delays in an electric power grid affect the performance of control systems and can cause power losses. This paper analyzes the causes and effects of communication delays. The analysis employs a simulated power network comprising several generators for which braking resistors with intelligent (fuzzy logic) controllers are used for transient stability control. A balanced 3LG (three-...

All existing stochastic optimisers such as Evolutionary Algorithms require parameterisation which has a significant influence on the algorithm’s performance. In most cases, practitioners assign static values to variables after an initial tuning phase. This parameter tuning method requires experience the practitioner may not have and, when done conscientiously, is rather time-consuming. Also, th...
