This paper analyses the current Internet congestion control mechanisms and presents two control theoretical approaches based on the existing Proportional-Integral-plus-Derivative (PID) controllers. The parameters were selected to ensure the stability of the control loop. It is shown that a modified PID controller offers a quick response, good utilisation and fair share of available bandwidth an...

This paper present a new method to determine the optimal tuning of the PID controller parameter of an AVR system using Modified particle swarm optimization (MPSO) algorithm. the AVR is not robust to variations of the power system parameters therefore, it is necessary to use PID controller To increase the stability and performance of the AVR system. Fast tuning of optimum PID controller paramete...

Whole body Co60 gamma radiation induced changes in lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) activity, pyruvate, lactate content and rate of oxygen (O2) consumption in a tropical hibernating anuran (Bufo melanostictus). In 3.5 and 7 Gy treated groups, a significant increase in LDH activity and lactate/pyruvate ratio was observed, whereas a significant decrease in O2 consumption rate was observed in treated an...

Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a serious public health and reproductive health problem in the United States. An early and accurate diagnosis of PID is extremely important for the effective management of the acute illness and for the prevention of long-term sequelae. The diagnosis of PID is difficult, with considerable numbers of false-positive and false-negative diagnoses. An abnormal vag...

Currently, in process industry the most usual approach implemented for process control is based on PID controller; and more than 90% of controllers in continuous processes installed in industries are PID. In general, and specially for typical SISO processes, this kind of controllers give satisfactory results, and plant operators have systematic procedures for tuning PID parameters. Disadvantage...

Since fuzzy controllers are nonlinear, it is more difficult to set the controller gains compared to proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers. This research paper proposes a design procedure and a tuning procedure that carries tuning rules from the PID domain over to fuzzy single-loop controllers. The idea is to start with a tuned, conventional PID controller, replace it with an equiva...

In the paper, a new multivariable self-tuning PID controller design scheme is proposed which has a static matrix precompensator to reduce the interaction terms of the process transfer function matrix adjusted by an online estimator. The p £ p precompensated multivariate system is then controlled via ‘p’ univariate self-tuning PID controllers whose parameters are adjusted by a second identifier ...

This paper presents the design of the hybrid PID-ANFIS controller for controlling the speed of the Brushless Direct Current Motor (BLDCM). The objective of this work is to obtain the BLDCM speed controller equipment effectively. The hybrid PID-ANFIS controller is a combination of classical PID controller and ANFIS controller. This method is applied to BLDCM speed controller by simulation and im...

OBJECTIVES As pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) aetiology is not completely understood, we examined the relationship between select novel bacteria, PID and long-term sequelae. METHODS Fastidious bacterial vaginosis (BV)-associated bacteria (Sneathia (Leptotrichia) sanguinegens, Sneathia amnionii, Atopobium vaginae and BV-associated bacteria 1 (BVAB1)), as well as Ureaplasma urealyticum and Ur...

A photoionization detector (PID) is well known for its high sensitivity, large dynamic range, and non-destructive vapor detection capability. However, due to its tardy response, which results from the relatively large ionization chamber and dead volume, the application of the PID in gas chromatography (GC) has been limited. Here, we developed a rapid, flow-through, and highly sensitive microflu...
