PID and Fuzzy Logic Control of Ball and Beam System Using Particle Swarm Optimization

In this research, we carried out the modeling of the ball and beam system (BBS) within the MATLAB/Simulink framework by applying both proportional-integral-derivative (PID) and fuzzy logic control strategies to govern the dynamics of this constructed model. The underlying non-linear dynamic equations adjusting the behavior of the BBS system are based on Newton’s second law of motion. The physical installation of the BBS, designed for potential real-time application, comprises a lengthy beam subject to movement through the action of a DC servomotor, with a ball traversing the beam in a reciprocating manner. A distance sensor is strategically placed in front of the beam to determine the exact position of the ball. In this system, an electrical control signal applied to the DC servomotor causes the beam to pivot about its horizontal axis, thereby enabling the ball to move freely along the beam's length. To avoid the risk of losing the ball equilibrium on the beam and to achieve precise system control, a mathematical model was devised and implemented within the MATLAB/Simulink environment. The use of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm was aimed at tackling the task of refining and optimizing the PID controller specifically designed for the linearized ball and beam control system. The presented system is controlled using both PID and fuzzy logic, and the use of the PSO algorithm enhances the system’s responsiveness efficiency.

Three-dimensional fuzzy logic system for process modeling and control

The traditional fuzzy logic system （FLS） can only model and control the process in two-dimensional nature. Many of real-world systems are of multidimensional features, such as, thermal and fluid processes with spatiotemporal dynamics, biological systems, or decision-making processes that contain stochastic and imprecise uncertainties. These types of systems are difficult for the traditional FLS to model and control because they require a third dimension for spatial or probabilistic information. The type-2 fuzzy set provides the possibility to develop a three-dimensional fuzzy logic system for modeling and controlling these processes in three-dimensional nature.

Safety diagnosis on coal mine production system based on fuzzy logic inference

According to the randomness and uncertainty of information in the safety diagnosis of coal mine production system (CMPS), a novel safety diagnosis method was proposed by applying fuzzy logic inference method, which consists of safety diagnosis fuzzifier, defuzzifier, fuzzy rules base and inference engine. Through the safety diagnosis on coal mine roadway rail transportation system, the result shows that the unsafe probability is about 0.5 influenced by no speed reduction and over quick turnout on roadway, which is the most possible reason leading to the accident of roadway rail transportation system.

Fuzzy logic controller design with unevenly-distributed membership function for high performance chamber cooling system

Fuzzy logic controller adopting unevenly-distributed membership function was presented with the purpose of enhancing performance of the temperature control precision and robustness for the chamber cooling system.Histogram equalization and noise detection were performed to modify the evenly-distributed membership functions of error and error change rate into unevenly-distributed membership functions.Then,the experimental results with evenly and unevenly distributed membership functions were compared under the same outside environment conditions.The experimental results show that the steady-state error is reduced around 40% and the noise disturbance is rejected successfully even though noise range is 60% of the control precision range.The control precision is improved by reducing the steady-state error and the robustness is enhanced by rejecting noise disturbance through the fuzzy logic controller with unevenly-distributed membership function.Moreover,the system energy efficiency and lifetime of electronic expansion valve(EEV) installed in chamber cooling system are improved by adopting the unevenly-distributed membership function.

Nonlinear inverse modeling of sensor based on back-propagation fuzzy logical system

Objective To correct the nonlinear error of sensor output,a new approach to sensor inverse modeling based on Back-Propagation Fuzzy Logical System(BP FS) is presented.Methods The BP FS is a computationally efficient nonlinear universal approximator,which is capable of implementing complex nonlinear mapping from its input pattern space to the output with fast convergence speed.Results The neuro-fuzzy hybrid system,i.e.BP FS,is then applied to construct nonlinear inverse model of pressure sensor.The experimental results show that the proposed inverse modeling method automatically compensates the associated nonlinear error in pressure estimation,and thus the performance of pressure sensor is significantly improved.Conclusion The proposed method can be widely used in nonlinearity correction of various kinds of sensors to compensate the effects of nonlinearity and temperature on sensor output.

A fuzzy logic resource allocation and memory cell pruning based artificial immune recognition system

In order to improve the resource allocation mechanism of artificial immune recognition system(AIRS) and decrease the memory cells,a fuzzy logic resource allocation and memory cell pruning based AIRS(FPAIRS) is proposed.In FPAIRS,the fuzzy logic is determined by a parameter,thus,the optimal fuzzy logics for different problems can be located through changing the parameter value.At the same time,the memory cells of low fitness scores are pruned to improve the classifier.This classifier was compared with other classifiers on six UCI datasets classification performance.The results show that the accuracies reached by FPAIRS are higher than or comparable to the accuracies of other classifiers,and the memory cells decrease when compared with the memory cells of AIRS.The results show that the algorithm is a high-performance classifier.

On the basis of analyzing the system constitution of vehicle semi-active suspension, a 4-DOF (degree of freedom) dynamic model is established. A tunable fuzzy logic controller is designed by using without quantification method and taking into account the uncertainty, nonlinearity and complexity of parameters for a vehicle suspension system. Simulation to test the performance of this controller is performed under random excitations and definite disturbances of a C grade road, and the effects of time delay and changes of system parameters on the vehicle suspension system are researched. The numerical simulation shows that the performance of the designed tunable fuzzy logic controller is effective, stable and reliable.

As the typical institutional change,the reform of the emergency management of the super-ministry system embodies itself not only in the integration of emergency function and the combination of organizations,but also in the mechanism reform of the emergency management.As a result,it cannot avoid the accumulation logic,the intentional logic and the isomorphic logic of institutional change.It manifests as follows:from the perspective of the accumulation logic,the reform of the emergency management of the super-ministry system is influenced by the historical context and the original institution;from the perspective of intentional logic,it is influenced by the thinking set and the benefit game;from the perspective of isomorphic logic,it is constrained by the political and social structure and the institutional supply shortage.

Fuzzy Logic Based Evolving System and One Kind of Competition Mechanism

In this paper, an evolving system is introduced. That any system is evolving means that any entity in the system is in developing state and entities compete with each other. Any entity can be represented by development of the entity and its environment consisting of a closed cycle. Any subsystem is assigned by a management. The competing controller controls competing entities and arranges them in any advantage order by its common rules and local rules of any subsystem. Each entity can use its competing rules to change the evaluation by any subsystem containing it. This kind of changes leads the entity into its increase of the position in an advantage order.

Deduction Theorem and Hypothetical Syllogism Rule on Fuzzy Logic System

Cancelled the first axiom L1) or the third axiom L3) of the classical formal logic system we established two kinds of quasi-formal deductive system, LG-R^* and LG^* respectively. In LG-R^* we proved that neither the deduction theorem nor the hypothetical syllogism (HS) rule held but a deduction theorem and an HS rule are obtained in a weak sense. We also proved that both the deduction theorem and the hypothetical syllogism(HS) rule hold in LG^*.

Optimization in Site Selection of Wind Turbine for Energy Using Fuzzy Logic System and GIS—A Case Study for Gujarat

The development of new wind energy project requires studying of many parameters to achieve maximum benefits at the cost of minimum environmental impacts. Using Geographic Information System (GIS), an analytical framework has been developed in this paper with fuzzy logic to evaluate the suitable site for turbines for optimum energy output. The criteria for suitable site for energy optimization are environmental, physical and human factors. The present study helps to assess the appropriate sites for the wind turbines in Gujarat. The result obtained from the study conveys the suitability of the development of wind turbines along the western parts of Gujarat. The suggested model could be used for the future site selection of the wind turbine which in turn could be of orientation for energy planners and decision makers.

Application of the Constrained Predicated Nets and Interval Logic to Production Systems

A method to model and analyze the hybrid systems is presented. The time to be considered in the plant is taken as an explicit parameter through the constrained predicated net (CPN). The CPN's basic structure is a Petri net with predicated transition. All components of the net are expressed by annotation which is defined on rational set Q. The analysis method for the plant is interval temporal logic represented by Petri nets. This paper combines the above two methods to synthesize the hybrid system, gives a simple and clear expression of the expected action of the studied plant.

The following results are proved： medium propositional logic system MP and its extension MP^＊ are strong complete; medium predicate logic system MF and its extensions （MF^＊ and ME^＊ ） are not strong complete; and generally, ff a consistent formal system is not strong complete, then any consistent extensions of this forreal system are not strong complete either.

Maximum Power Point Tracker Controller Using Fuzzy Logic Control with Battery Load for Photovoltaics Systems

The target of this paper is to model a Maximum Power Point Tracker (MPPT) using a Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) algorithm and to investigate its behavior with a battery load. The advantage of this study over other studies in this field is that it considers a battery load rather than the commonly used resistive load especially when we deal with the relationship between MPPT and system load. The system is about 60 kW which is simulated under various environmental conditions by Matlab/Simulink program. For this type of non-linear application, FLC naturally offers a superior controller for the real load case. The artificial intelligence approach also benefits from this method for overcoming the complexity of nonlinear system modelling. The results show that FLC provides high performance for MPPT of PV system with battery load due to its low settling time and limited oscillation around the steady state value. These are assistant factors for increasing battery life.

Dehydration of Agro Products in a Hybrid Solar Dryer Controlled through a Fuzzy Logic System

Drying is one of the most energy-intensive processes in agro-products industry. For this reason, using solar energy appears as an attractive not polluting alternative to be used in drying processes. However, the daily and seasonal fluctuations in the radiation level require using energy accumulators with phase change materials (paraffin wax), to have a continuous drying processes. In hybrid solar dryers with energy accumulation system, a control system is essential to coordinate the control valves that allow the income of air that comes from the solar panel or from the energy accumulator. In this work, we implemented an advances multivariable control system that uses fuzzy logic in the hybrid solar dryer. The dryer includes an energy accumulator panel with paraffin wax as phase change material. The input variables were ambient temperature and solar radiation, both not controllable. The controlled variables were the opening level of the solar panel and accumulator energy valves. The control program consisted in an algorithm implemented with the “Fuzzy” toolbox in Matlab. Data were acquired with OPTO 22. The control system performed adequately when used to dehydrate mushroom slices and plums. Closing or opening the respective valves as a response to the variations of solar radiation and ambient air temperature allowed optimizing the use of solar energy.
