Decentralized Fuzzy-PID Based Control Model for a Multivariable Liquid Level System
Multivariable liquid level control is essential in process industries to ensure quality of the product and safety of the equipment. However, the significant problems of the control system include excessive time consumption and percentage overshoot, which result from ineffective performance of the tuning methods of the PID controllers used for the system. In this paper, fuzzy logic was used to t...
متن کاملDynamic Animation and Control Environment
We introduce the Dynamic Animation and Control Environment (DANCE) as a publicly available simulation platform for research and teaching. DANCE is an open and extensible simulation framework and rapid prototyping environment for computer animation. The main focus of the DANCE platform is the development of physicallybased controllers for articulated figures. In this paper we (a) present the arc...

It has the capability of integrating models, which have been created in a variety of languages such as SPICE, ACSL , and SABER , into one simulation environment. It also pr...
متن کاملTowards Agile Animated Characters
Dynamic simulation is a potentially useful tool for creating realistic motion for animated characters. However, improved control techniques are required before this approach will bear fruit. We compare and contrast control for animation with control for robotics. This is followed by an overview of two control methods which were conceived in the context of computer animation, but which also have...
