چکیده

This paper describes the development of a real-time Expert System applied to the ore extraction Industrial branch, specifically used to assist the decision making and fault identification on rotary railcar dumpers of the operational productive system located at Ponta da Madeira Dock Terminal, built and operated by Companhia Vale do Rio Doce (now referred just as VALE) in São Luis-MA. The Expert System is built on JESS (Java Expert System Shell) platform and provides support to engineers and operators during the ore unloading as soon as supplying on-line information about faults triggered by device sensors of the rotary railcar. The system’s conception involves the application of CommonKADS methodology, knowledge engineering and artificial intelligence techniques at the symbolic level for representing and organizing the knowledge domain in which the system is applied.

Identification of Multiple Input-multiple Output Non-linear System Cement Rotary Kiln using Stochastic Gradient-based Rough-neural Network

Because of the existing interactions among the variables of a multiple input-multiple output (MIMO) nonlinear system, its identification is a difficult task, particularly in the presence of uncertainties. Cement rotary kiln (CRK) is a MIMO nonlinear system in the cement factory with a complicated mechanism and uncertain disturbances. The identification of CRK is very important for different pur...

Identification of Cement Rotary Kiln in Noisy Condition using Takagi-Sugeno Neuro-fuzzy System

Cement rotary kiln is the main part of cement production process that have always attracted many researchers’ attention. But this complex nonlinear system has not been modeled efficiently which can make an appropriate performance specially in noisy condition. In this paper Takagi-Sugeno neuro-fuzzy system (TSNFS) is used for identification of cement rotary kiln, and gradient descent (GD) algori...
