A PID-deadtime controller is realized by inserting a time delay into the integral feedback circuit. Such a controller possesses a transfer function similar to a Smith predictor or an internal-model controller. Effective tuning of PID deadtime controllers remains unsolved even though they give better regulatory performance than a conventional PID control algorithm for processes with a long pure ...

OBJECTIVES The presence and severity of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) symptoms are thought to vary by microbiological etiology but there is limited empirical evidence. We sought to estimate and compare the rates of hospitalisation for PID temporally related to diagnoses of gonorrhoea and chlamydia. METHODS All women, aged 15-45 years in the Australian state of New South Wales (NSW), with ...

The filter term of a PID with Filter controller reduces the impact of measurement noise on the derivative action of the controller. This impact is quantified by the controller output travel defined as the total movement of the controller output per unit time. Decreasing controller output travel is important to reduce wear in the final control element. Internal Model Control (IMC) tuning correla...

OBJECTIVES As Mycoplasma genitalium is associated with pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), we examined the efficacy of a commonly used PID antimicrobial in treating M genitalium upper genital tract infection. METHODS In the PID Evaluation and Clinical Health study of inpatient versus outpatient treatment, 682 women treated with cefoxitin and doxycycline for clinically suspected PID had stored ...

As traditional PID controller has mature technique, it is applied widely. But the design of it depends on mathematical model of the controlled object. But the parameters of PID controller use engineering tuning method, it requires much time and effort and the parameters are only effect in a specific range. It is not suitable for complicated nonlinear and time-variable system. In recent year, pe...

This paper proposes a methodology of designing a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) controller for photovoltaic systems (PV) using a Fuzzy Gain Scheduling of Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) type controller (FGS-PID) with adaptation of scaling factors (SF) for the input signals of FGS. The proposed adaptive FGS-PID method is based on a two-level control system architecture, which combine...

In this paper, a thorough mathematical analysis is proposed for designing and tuning fuzzy proportional ± integral± derivative (FZ-PID) control in order to achieve a better performance and simpler design. The quantitative model of FZ-PID, derived for the mathematical analysis and gain design, consists of a nonlinear relay and a nonlinear proportional ± integral ± derivative (PID) controller. Th...

BACKGROUND The cause-effect relation between periodontal inflammatory disease (PID) and Parkinson's disease (PD) remains uncertain. The purpose of our study was to investigate the association between PID and PD. METHODS We conducted a retrospective matched-cohort study by using Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database. We identified 5,396 patients with newly diagnosed PID during 1...

The pH control process has been used in industry in a wide number of applications. Its dynamics are highly nonlinear. The pH control process is subjected to uncertainties of mathematical model describing the kinetics changes of chemical process and the external disturbances. The pH control process using the PID control technique will be investigated in this paper. The setting and adjustment of ...

Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a clinical syndrome characterized by upper genital tract inflammation and frequently associated with sexually transmitted or genital tract microorganisms. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has developed STD treatment guidelines intended to assist health care providers in selecting antibiotic treatment strategies based on objective clinical...
