evolving models have found applications in many real world systems. in this paper, potentials of the evolving linear models (elms) in tracking control design for nonlinear variable structure systems are introduced. at first, an elm is introduced as a dynamic single input, single output (siso) linear model whose parameters as well as dynamic orders of input and output signals can change through ...

in this paper, an adaptive fuzzy control scheme is proposed for a class of perturbed strict-feedback nonlinear systems with unknown discrete and distributed time-varying delays, and the proposed design method does not require a priori knowledge of the signs of the control gains.based on the backstepping technique, the adaptive fuzzy controller is constructed. the main contributions of the paper...

A new approach for pole placement of nonlinear systems using state feedback and fuzzy system is proposed. We use a new online fuzzy training method to identify and to obtain a fuzzy model for the unknown nonlinear system using only the system input and output. Then, we linearized this identified model at each sampling time to have an approximate linear time varying system. In order to stabilize...

Many real time processes have complex, uncertain and nonlinear dynamics. Boilers are nonlinear, time varying, multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems, whose states generally vary with operating conditions. The major problem in controlling that system is that its drum water pressure and steam flow dynamics include an integrator that results a critically stable behavior. Conventional controller p...

This paper presents a modified method for approximating nonlinear systems by a sequence of linear time varying systems. The convergence proof is outlined and the potential of this methodology is discussed. Simulation results are used to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

nowadays with increasing use of numerous nonlinear loads, voltage and current harmonics in power systems are one of the most important problems power engineers encounter. many of these nonlinear loads, because of their dynamic natures, inject time-varying harmonics into power system. common techniques applied for harmonics measurement and assessment such as fft have significant errors in presen...
