Active Suspension System Control Using Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy (ANFIS) Controller

The purpose of designing the active suspension systems is providing comfort riding and good handling in different road disturbances. In this paper a novel control method based on adaptive neuro fuzzy system in active suspension system is proposed. Choosing the proper data base to train the ANFIS has an important role in increasing the suspension system’s performance. The data base which is used...

Design of a Pneumatic Robotic Arm for Solar Cell Tester System by Using PLC Controller

Solar cell testers sort photovoltaic cells according to their electrical performance, tested under simulated sunlight. A variety of testers exist, but they all face a common challenge of handling cells that are very small and thin, which makes it difficult to transport the cells from the conveyer to the storage box. This paper presents a new design for a handling robot with vacuum end-effectors...
