Bioclimatic design as a large city urban structure reorganization factor

Intelligent Bioclimatic Architectural Design

To produce intelligent bioclimatic architectural design software one must put together many different modules, such as, architectural design programs, bioclimatic design programs and expert consultation systems. The problem is very complex and many different technologies must be integrated. A first approach is to produce a module-based system, where every module provides its output to the next ...

A Variable Structure Observer Based Control Design for a Class of Large scale MIMO Nonlinear Systems

This paper fully discusses how to design an observer based decentralized fuzzy adaptive controller for a class of large scale multivariable non-canonical nonlinear systems with unknown functions of subsystems’ states. On-line tuning mechanisms to adjust both the parameters of the direct adaptive controller and observer that guarantee the ultimately boundedness of both the tracking error and tha...
