The tuning of Linear Quadratic regulator (LQR) controllers is a challenge for researchers and plant operators. This paper presents a optimization and comparison of time response specification between Traditional ZN Tuning & Modified ZN Tuning controllers with Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) for a speed control of a separately excited DC motor. The goal is to determine which control strategy de...

This paper proposes two novel fuzzy fractional PID structures. The tuning of the fuzzy fractional controllers is based on the prior knowledge of fractional-order control tuning rules. The digital implementation of these controllers is also investigated. The effectiveness and robustness of the proposed tuning methodology is illustrated through its application on a fractional-order plant. The sim...

Objectives: Sensory neuropathy is the major cause of ulceration in diabetic patients. Periodical sensory examination is an appropriate method to detect neuropathy and decrease the risk of diabetic foot ulcer. Semmes–Weinstein Monofilaments (SWM) and tuning fork on/off test are widely used to assess pressure and vibration sensitivity. The present study evaluated the inter- and intra-rater reliab...

One of structural passive control methods is to use Tuned Liquid Damper (TLD). However, because of the nature of the TLD, only one tuning frequency can be created when the water is sloshing. To fix this problem, some installed rotatable baffles can be embedded inside TLD called Variably Baffled TLD (VBTLD) where by changing the angle of the baffles a tuning frequency range is created. This gives ...

cooperative object manipulation control of rigid-flexible multi-body systems in space is studied in this paper. during such tasks, flexible members like solar panels may get vibrated that in turn may lead to some oscillatory disturbing forces on other subsystems, and consequently produces error in the motion of the end-effectors of the cooperative manipulating arms. therefore, to design and dev...

In control theory, a controller parameter-tuning method called virtual reference feedback tuning (VRFT) is proposed. VRFT can tune using single experimental data. If be applied to vehicle, the yaw-rate adequately tuned without need for vehicle model. Therefore, this study expands results of realize desired autonomous vehicles. The key point proposed auto-tuning gain-schedule proportional–integr...
