This paper proposes an adaptive fuzzy control application to support a vendor managed inventory (VMI). The methodology applies fuzzy control to generate an adaptive smoothing constant in the forecast method, production and delivery plan to eliminate, for example, the rationing and gaming or the Houlihan effect and the order batching effect or the Burbidge effects and finally the Bullwhip effect...

An adaptive fuzzy controller is synthesized from a collection of fuzzy IF–THEN rules. The parameters of the membership functions characterizing the linguistic terms in the fuzzy IF–THEN rules are changed according to some adaptive laws for the purpose of controlling a plant to track a reference trajectory. In this paper, a direct adaptive fuzzy control design method is developed for the general...

The paper presents an architecture for adaptive fuzzy control of industrial systems. Both conventional and adaptive fuzzy control can be designed. The control methodology can integrate a priori knowledge about the control and/or about the plant, with on-line control adaptation mechanisms to cope with time-varying and/or uncertain plant parameters. The paper presents the fuzzy control software a...

Weight control system on the feeder conveyor determines the factor of the quality of products within an industry. The dynamics of the flow rate of material through the feeder conveyor weigh requires a good level of performance controllers. The base of current controllers such as FLC (Fuzzy Logic Controller) requires a certain amount of knowledge and expertise in its design that will make it dif...

Fuzzy control is a model free approach, i.e., it does not require a mathematical model of the system under control. An observer-based indirect adaptive fuzzy neural tracking control equipped with VSS and H∞ control algorithms is developed for nonlinear SISO systems involving plant uncertainties and external disturbances. Three important control methods, i.e., adaptive fuzzy neural control schem...

An adaptive backstepping fuzzy-immune controller for a class of chaotic systems is proposed. An adaptive backstepping fuzzy method and adaptive laws are used to approximate nonlinear functions and the unknown upper bounds of uncertainty, respectively. The proposed adaptive backstepping fuzzy-immune controller guarantees the stability of a class of chaotic systems while maintaining good tracking...

In this paper, an adaptive neuro fuzzy sliding mode based genetic algorithm (ANFSGA) controlsystem is proposed for a pH neutralization system. In pH reactors, determination and control of pH isa common problem concerning chemical-based industrial processes due to the non-linearity observedin the titration curve. An ANFSGA control system is designed to overcome the complexity of precisecontrol o...
