This paper proposes a swarm optimized fuzzy logic based power system stabilizer (SFLPSS). The fuzzy logic stabilizer membership functions parameters, inputs and outputs gains and fuzzy rules are tuned and optimized using particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique. Optimization parameters were subject to realistic constraint. The optimization is done using a seventh order nonlinear model of a s...

abstract: this paper presents dynamic modelling and control of a linear prismatic series of elastic actuator. the capability of generating large torques is why this actuator is increasingly used in human-assistive robotic systems. due to having human in the loop, the actuator requires precise control. a fractional pid controller known for its improved performance is used for the control, due to...

so far various methods for optimization presented and one of most popular of them are optimization algorithms based on swarm intelligence and also one of most successful of them is particle swarm optimization (pso). prior some efforts by applying fuzzy logic for improving defects of pso such as trapping in local optimums and early convergence has been done. moreover to overcome the problem of i...

This paper proposes a modified particle swarm optimization algorithm (MPSO) to design adaptive neuro-fuzzy controller parameters for controlling the behavior of non-linear dynamical systems. The modification of the proposed algorithm includes adding adaptive weights to the swarm optimization algorithm, which introduces a new update. The proposed MPSO algorithm uses a minimum velocity threshold ...

This article presents an intelligent fuzzy logic controller (FLC) for controlling single-body heaving wave energy converter (WEC) or what is widely known as “Point Absorber”. The controller aims at maximizing the energy captured from the sea waves. The power take-off (PTO) limitations are addressed implicitly in the fuzzy inference system (FIS) framework. In order to enhance the WEC power captu...

The performance of a genetic algorithm is dependent on the genetic operators, in general, and on the type of crossover operator, in particular. The population diversity is usually used as the performance measure for the premature convergence. In this paper, a fuzzy genetic algorithm is proposed for solving binary encoded combinatorial optimization problems. A new crossover operator and probabil...
