Journal of Digital Information Management Volume 9 Number 6 December 2011 ABSTRACT: In order to control reasonably the acceleration and dynamic tension in full-load starting process of conveyor system, accurate design techniques should be adopted. This paper selects the viscoelasticity model suiting to the belt by comparing dynamic performance of some kinds of models, and develops simulation mo...

This paper presents a systematic ap­proach for the design and implementation of temperature controller us­ing Intelligent Fuzzy-PID Hybrid Controller for Temperature control in Process Industry. The proposed approach employs PID based intelligent fuzzycontroller for determination of the optimal results than PID con­troller parameters for a previously identified process plant. Results indicate t...

This paper proposes a novel adaptive genetic algorithm (AGA) for the multi-objective optimization design of a fractional PID controller and applies it to the control of an active magnetic bearing (AMB) system. Different from PID controllers with three constants, the fractional PID controller’s parameters are composed of proportional constant, integral constant, derivative constant, derivative o...

This paper describes design and implementation of a digital controller for an experimental low-power converter in a battery-powered system with power management. Multiple operating modes are used to maintain high efficiency over wide ranges of input voltages and loads. A current estimation technique to perform load-dependent mode switching is proposed and tested. A digital PID regulator design ...

In this paper, an attempt is made to apply the African Buffalo Optimization (ABO) to tune the parameters of a PID controller for an effective Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR). Existing metaheuristic tuning methods have been proven to be quite successful but there were observable areas that need improvements especially in terms of the system's gain overshoot and steady steady state errors. Usin...

This paper describes the speed control of dc motor using conventional PID controller and Fuzzy Logic controller. Due to the simplicity in operation, conventional PID controllers were used as a control strategy for various industrial processes from many years. They used mathematical models to control the plant for different process control applications. Fuzzy logic based control systems were int...

Electric power assist steering (EPAS) system provides an important significance in enhancing the driving performance of a vehicle with its energy-conserving features. This paper presents a hybrid PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) based control scheme to minimize energy consumption for EPAS. This single objective optimization scheme is realized using th...

In this paper, a fractional order (FO) PID controller is designed to take care of various contradictory objective functions for an Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) system. An improved evolutionary Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA II), which is augmented with a chaotic map for greater effectiveness, is used for the multi-objective optimization problem. The Pareto fronts showing ...

The self-tuning PID/I controller (ST-PID-2) with new algorithm of tuning of test signal is proposed. This controller is based on the self-tuning PID/I controller (ST-PID-1) but have better algorithm of tuning of test signal. It is assumed that plant is described by first order with time delay. Coefficients of plant are unknown and can be changed in some isolated time moments. Self-tuning PID/I ...

Aiming at the characteristics of a certain thermostat control system such as non-linear and time varying, combining the traditional PID controller with modern fuzzy control theory, and using the EP1C12 FPGA as the core controller, the fuzzy adaptive PID temperature controller is going to be designed and achieved. The deviation and deviation rate are the inputs of fuzzy PID controller. PID param...
