A mathematical model is built to calculate the transmission power loss and the hydraulic system leakage. Based on this model, a flow-based control strategy is developed for EOP to satisfy the system flow requirement. This control strategy is verified through the forward driving simulation. The results indicate that there is a best combination for the size of mechanical oil pump(MOP) and EOP in terms of minimum energy consumption. In order to get a quick and smooth starting process, control strategies of the EOP and the on-coming clutch are proposed. The test environment on a prototype vehicle is built to verify the feasibility of the integrated EOP and its control strategies. The results show that the selected EOP can satisfy the flow requirement and a quick and smooth starting performance is achieved in the start–stop function. This research has a high value for the forward design of EOP in automatic transmissions with respect to efficiency improvement and start–stop function.展开更多

The rational cost function with multiple constraints is employed to describe the inventory model. The genetic algorithm is employed to solve the inventory cost function to obtain the optimal solution of inventory checking periods, safe inventory point, product lot-sizes and process lot-sizes of return product. An example is presented to prove the feasibility and validity of the proposed method. Moreover, the influence of manufacturing/remanufacturing lead time and reuse rate of return production on the inventory control strategy of enterprise is analyzed.展开更多

The DE has been used in many practical cases and has demonstrated good convergence properties. It has only a few control parameters as number of particles (NP), scaling factor (F) and crossover control (CR), which are kept fixed throughout the entire evolutionary process. However, these control parameters are very sensitive to the setting of the control parameters based on their experiments. The value of control parameters depends on the characteristics of each objective function, therefore, we have to tune their value in each problem that mean it will take too long time to perform. In the new manner, we present a new version of the DE algorithm for obtaining self-adaptive control parameter settings. Some modifications are imposed on DE to improve its capability and efficiency while being hybridized with Nelder-Mead simplex method. To valid the robustness of new hybrid algorithm, we apply it to solve some examples of structural optimization constraints.展开更多

For first order time delay system, a systematic approach for weight selection based on the sensitivity function was proposed, then compared to the internal model control strategy. For both methods, the synthesis was based on the Pade approximation. Two cases are considered for time delay: upper or lower than system time constant. Simulation results for the proposed approaches are acceptable ever in presence of disturbances and model mismatches.展开更多

In particular, we first simulate a typical absence epilepsy activity under the combined effect of the coupling strength between inhibitory interneurons(IIN)-excitatory pyramidal neurons(EPN) and EPN-TRN pathway. And then we explore the control mechanism of different parameters of 3:2 ON-OFF CRS on spike and slow-wave discharges(SWDs)region. Through analyzing the corresponding two-dimensional bifurcation diagrams, we find CRS is effective on controlling absence seizures in proper ranges of stimulation parameters. Especially, the combination of frequency and positive input duration can inhibit the pathological area more effectively. The obtained results might be helpful to study the pathophysiology mechanism of epilepsy, although the CRS's feasibility still needs further exploration in clinical experiments.展开更多

Two event-triggered control strategies, one centralized and the other distributed, are developed, which can reduce the frequency of control updating. Under the proposed protocols, the multiple nonholonomic systems can achieve consensus, and the bound of inter-event time intervals is provided to illustrate that no Zeno behavior exists. Finally, numerical simulations are also provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategies.展开更多

Our aim is to design a controller such that, though the unavoidable phenomena of time-delay and parameter uncertainty are fully considered, the resulting closed-loop system is asymptotically stable with a mixed H∞ and passive performance level. By combining active and adaptive control methods, a novel hybrid control strategy is designed, which can guarantee the robust stability of the closed-loop system and also ensure a mixed H∞ and passive performance level. Via the application of FO Lyapunov stability theory, the projective synchronization conditions are addressed in terms of linear matrix inequaiity techniques. Finally, two simulation examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多

In this work, we study the problem of manipulating nuclear magnetization in the spin-exchange optical pumping system, including accelerating the recovery of nuclear polarization and fixing it on a specific desired state. A real-time feedback control strategy is exploited here. We have also done some numerical simulations, with the results clearly demonstrating the effectiveness of our method, that the nuclear magnetization is able to be driven towards the equilibrium state at a much faster speed and also can be stabilized to a target state. We expect that our feedback control method can find applications in gyro experiments.展开更多

In this paper, we propose and study a simple SI type model that considers the effect of various precaution- ary measures to control HIV epidemic. We show, unlike conventional epidemic models, that the basic reproduction number which essentially considered as the disease eradica- tion condition is no longer sufficient to eliminate HIV infection. In particular, we show that even when the basic reproduction number is made less than unity, the disease may persist if the initial outbreak is not low. Eradication of disease is however guaranteed if the ensemble control measure exceeds some upper critical value. It is also shown that an epidemic model with mass action incidence may exhibit backward bifurcation and bistability if density-dependent demography is considered. Our theoretical study thus indicates that extra attention should be given in controlling HIV epidemic to achieve the desired result.展开更多
