PID controllers are very common in industrial systems applications. The tuning of these controllers is governed by system nonlinearities and continuous parameter variations. In this paper, a complete and rigorous comparison is made between two tuning algorithms. The PI controller was used in a speed control loop in a Direct Torque Control (DTC) scheme applied on an induction motor. The first me...

The paper presents a methodology for developing adaptive speed controllers in a permanent-magnet brushless DC (BLDC) motor drive system. A proportional-integral controller is employed in order to obtain the controller parameters at each selected load. The resulting data from PI controller are used to train adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems (ANFIS) that could deduce the controller parameter...

This paper is about the design of a Sliding Mode Controller (SMC), with modified PI-D sliding surface, for the control of First Order Plus Dead Time (FOPDT) process. In the modified PI-D sliding surface, error is connected to the proportional and integral elements of the controller, and the derivative of the system output is connected to derivative element of the controller. The usage of PI-D s...
