This paper describes the speed control of dc motor using conventional PID controller and Fuzzy Logic controller. Due to the simplicity in operation, conventional PID controllers were used as a control strategy for various industrial processes from many years. They used mathematical models to control the plant for different process control applications. Fuzzy logic based control systems were int...

Electric power assist steering (EPAS) system provides an important significance in enhancing the driving performance of a vehicle with its energy-conserving features.

The self-tuning PID/I controller (ST-PID-2) with new algorithm of tuning of test signal is proposed. This controller is based on the self-tuning PID/I controller (ST-PID-1) but have better algorithm of tuning of test signal. It is assumed that plant is described by first order with time delay. Coefficients of plant are unknown and can be changed in some isolated time moments. Self-tuning PID/I ...

In this paper, design approach of PID controller with rejection function against external disturbance in motor control system is proposed using bacterial foraging based optimal algorithm. Up to the present time, PID Controller has been used to operate for AC motor drive because of its implementational advantages in practice and simple structure. However, it is not easy to achieve an optimal PID...

Problem statement: While classical PID controllers are sensitive to variations in the system parameters, Fuzzy controllers do not need precise information about the system variables in order to be effective. However, PID controllers are better able to control and minimize the steady state error of the system. To enhance the controller performance, hybridization of these two controller structure...
