This chapter develops a sliding mode and fuzzy logic-based speed controller, which is named adaptive fuzzy sliding-mode controller (AFSMC) for an indirect fieldoriented control (IFOC) of an induction motor (IM) drive. Essentially, the boundary layer approach is the most popular method to reduce the chattering phenomena, which leads to trade-off between control performances, and chattering elimi...

a novel technique is investigated for pid controller adaptation in order to control thetemperature of a liquid-phase reactor tank by using a heat exchanger system. as for nonlinearity,time delay problems and model uncertainties introduced by the heat exchanger, an interval type-2fuzzy system (it2fs) is implemented to enhance and improve the total control performance.moreover, the fuzzy inferenc...

This paper addresses the problem of adaptive fuzzy tracking control for aclass of nonlinearly parameterized systems with unknown control directions.In this paper, the nonlinearly parameterized functions are lumped into the unknown continuous functionswhich can be approximated by using the fuzzy logic systems (FLS) in Mamdani type. Then, the Nussbaum-type function is used to de...

This paper focusses on the application of fuzzy control techniques (fuzzy type-1 and type-2) and their hybrid forms (Hybrid adaptive fuzzy controller and fuzzy-PID controller) in the area of stabilized platforms. It represents an attempt to cover the basic principles and concepts of fuzzy control in stabilization and position control, with an outline of a number of recent applications used in a...

Abstract ⎯ This paper proposes an internal model (IMC) fuzzy controller based on fuzzy model inversion. The gradient-descent algorithm can be used on-line to form adaptive fuzzy controllers. This ability allows these controllers to be used in applications where the knowledge to control the process does not exist or the process is subject to changes in its dynamic characteristics. The proposed a...

Motivated by the need to develop more effective methods of controlling uncertain non-linear systems, this paper focus on developing an adaptive fuzzy model-based controller, in which the optimisation variables remain in the fuzzy domain. The scheme uses an on-line fuzzy identification scheme, which is able to generate a fuzzy relational model using the training data from the system. The propose...

The objective of the Fuzzy Adaptive Control (FAC) is to tune the scaling factors of the direct fuzzy logic controller (FLC). In this novel approach output scaling factor of Fuzzy controller is tuned through adaptation mechanism. The idea is to have a control system that will be able to achieve improvement in tracking set point change and rejection of load disturbance. In this paper, the propose...

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are promising clear and efficient new energy sources. An excellent control system is a normal working prerequisite for maintaining a fuel cell system in correct operating conditions. Conventional controllers could not satisfy the high performance to obtain the acceptable responses because of uncertainty, time-change, nonlinear, long-hysteresis and st...

This paper deals with the problem of robust trajectory tracking control, with a guaranteed H∞ performance, for free-floating manipulator systems. A new control strategy is developed based on the robot mathematical model and a fuzzy adaptive control law. The dynamic model of the free-floating space manipulator is described through the Dynamically Equivalent Manipulator approach. The fuzzy adapti...
