A solution to the problem of identification and control of smart structures is presented in this paper. Smart structures with build-in sensors and actuators can actively and adaptively change their physical geometry and properties. As a particular example, a representative dynamic model of a typical fighter vertical tail, identified as the smart fin, is considered. Piezoelectric patches, which ...

 System identification is an inherently iterative process. Yet, limited attempts have been made so far to implement the whole identification loop in a single device. This paper discusses the difficulties of the task and presents a solution based on a Matlab toolbox and a set of virtual instruments. During the identification session the obtained models may call for refinement or validation by n...

Measuring the human response to a visual stimulus is the next necessary step for future flight simulator testing. Two different methods: an identification algorithm, designed by the authors; and a simulation system MATLAB add on System Identification Toolbox, were used. The results from both methods, i.e. the individual parameters of the transfer function for the pilot behaviour model, were pra...

The demand for an accurate biometric system that provides reliable identification and verification of an individual has increased over the years. A biometric system that provides reliable and accurate identification of an individual is an iris recognition system. In which paper describes the segmentation and the normalization processing for biometric iris recognition system, implemented and val...

In this research study, one of the most crucial automotive engineering problems is intended to be solved. The necessity of tire pressure monitoring system is beyond doubt. Such systems are now provided relying on expensive sensors. In this study an indirect tire pressure monitoring system is proposed, utilizing identification techniques, which will reduce the cost of monitoring considerably in ...

In this paper, we introduce a new method to implement chaotic generators based on Henon map chaotic system given by the state equations by using Filed Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). The aim of this method is to increase the frequency of the chaotic generators. The new method is based on MATLAB Software, Xilinx System Generator, Xilinx Alliance tools, Leonardo spectrum or Synplicity Synplify an...

In practical system identification it is often desirable to simultaneously handle several objectives and constraints. In some cases, these objectives and constraints are often non-commensurable and the objective functions are explicitly/mathematically not available. In this paper, Interactive Evolutionary Computation (IEC) is used to effectively handle these identification problems. IEC is an o...

We present OpenAWE [1], a Matlab/Octave toolbox for solving optimal control problems with an airborne wind energy (AWE) system. For example, the toolbox can be used to find a flight path that produces maximal power (see Figure), or to find launch and landing trajectories. Parameters of the system can be optimized. Therefore, using the toolbox can accelerate thedesignprocess in the developmentof...
