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...

The problem of robust multiloop proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller tuning for multivariable processes is addressed in this paper. The problem is formulated in the H∞ control framework, and the controller parameters are determined based on both user-specified performance and robust stability. The PID settings are computed by solving a nonlinear optimization problem with matrix ine...

Brushless DC (BLDC) motors are commonly used in applications that require high reliability, high efficiency and high power-to-volume ratio such as industrial automations, manufacturing, robotics and aerospace. The speed of a brushless dc motor can be controlled in a closed loop by measuring the actual speed of the motor.PI (Proportional Integral), PID (Proportional Integral Derivative) and fuzz...

The modelling, numerical simulation and intelligent control of an expert HVAC (heating, ventilating and air-conditioning) system having two different zones with variable flow-rate were performed by considering the ambient temperature in this study. The sub-models of the system were obtained by deriving heat transfer equations of heat loss of two zones by conduction and convection, cooling unit ...

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is extensively used for real parameter optimization in diverse fields of study.

The pr...

The fixed parameters in traditional Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller that is proposed by Ziegler-Nichols and other researchers lead to poor performance for transient response or steady state response and it has bad value of performance indices. On the other hand, analysis and design of the nonlinear PID controller is very complicated and difficult in practice. In this paper, a ...
