<span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">This research focuses on travel angle control of a laboratory scale bench-top helicopter developed by Quanser Inc.  Bench top-helicopter is usually used by engineers and researchers to test their designed controllers before applying to the actual helicopter. Bench-top helicopter has the same behavior as the real helicopter, with 3 degree of freedom.  The bench-top helicopter is mounted on a flat surface with two rotors that depends on the voltage supplied to change the direction of the helicopter in 3 different angles. The movement of the helicopter is based on the direction of three-different angles; travel, pitch and yaw angles. The existing Linear Quadratic Regulator-Integral controller used by Quanser Inc has some limitations in terms of tracking capability and settling time; therefore this research is proposed. The objective of this research is to develop Mamdani-based Fuzzy Logic Controller for travel angle control of bench-top helicopter. Performance comparison has been done with the existing Linear Quadratic Regulator-Integral controller in both simulation and hardware. From the test results, it was found that the performance of Fuzzy Logic Controller is better than LQR-I controller especially for closed-loop simulation at desired angle of 30°. The percentage of overshoot of the Fuzzy Logic Controller has been improved from the existing controller which is 4.912% compared to 7.002% for LQR-I.</span>

The use of lightweight robotic manipulators in advanced assembly and manufacturing applications is hindered by the end-effector positional inaccuracies induced by the structural deformations of the arm. To address this problem, a macro- and micro-manipulator system is considered herein. Three rigid and flexible motion controllers, consisting of an integral plus state feedback controller (ISFC), linear quadratic regulator with an integral action (LQI) and a fuzzy logic controller (FLC), have been implemented in this study. The performances of these controllers are compared based on achieving zero steady-state error in the rigid body angular displacement of the beam, damping out the unwanted vibrations, rendering the end-effector insensitive to the vibrations of the arm, and avoiding excessive control torque requirements. The digital simulation results demonstrate the superiority of the FLC over the ISFC and LQI in damping out the vibrations of the beam and reducing the gripper positional inaccuracies while requiring relatively smaller control torques. Furthermore, the results clearly demonstrate the robustness of the FLC to significant variations in the payload mass.

Abstract Fuzzy logic control presents a computationally efficient and robust alternative to conventional controllers. An expert in a particular system can usually design a fuzzy logic controller for it easily as can be seen in many applications where fuzzy logic has been already successfully implemented. On the other hand, fuzzy logic controllers are not readily available for flexible-link manipulators. This paper presents two different approaches to design distributed controllers for flexible-link manipulators. The first approach, which is based on observing the performance of flexible manipulators, uses a distributed controller composed of two PD-like fuzzy logic controllers; one controller controls the joint angle while the other controls the tip vibration. The second distributed controller is based on evaluating the importance of the parameters of the system. The most two important parameters, joint and tip point velocities, are grouped together in the same fuzzy logic controller. The other parameters, joint angle and tip point displacement, are used in the second fuzzy logic controller. Both approaches are tuned using nonlinear programming. The paper compares these two approaches with tracking using a linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR).

The three-area power system is widely considered a suitable example to test load frequency control of the distributed generation system. In this article, for such a system, for the power stabilization task, we introduce two controllers: Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR), which is model-based, and Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC), which is data-based. The purpose is to compare the two approaches from the point of view of (i) ease of implementation and tuning, and (ii) robustness to changes in the model. The model, together with controls strategies, has been implemented in the MATLAB software. Then, it has been tested for different simulation scenarios, taking into account the disturbances and faulty tie-lines between areas. Various quality measures allow to compare the performance of each control strategy. The comparison in terms of parameter change and load disturbances prompt us to propose suitable metrics and advice notes on the application of each controller.

Thrust Allocation

Abstract A dynamic positioning system is computer controlled system which maintains the positioning and heading of ship by means of active thrust. A DP system consist of sensors, observer, controller and thrust allocation algorithm. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the performance of proportional derivative type fuzzy controller with Mamdani interface scheme for dynamic positioning of an oceanographic research vessel (ORV) by numerical simulation. Nonlinear passive observer is used to filter the noise from the position and orientation. A nonlinear mathematical model of the ORV is subjected to the wave disturbance ranging from calm to phenomenal sea. Robustness and efficiency of the fuzzy logic controller is analysed in comparison with the multivariable proportional integral derivative (PID) and the linear quadratic regulator (LQR) controller. A simplified constrained linear quadratic algorithm is used for thrust allocation. The frequency response of the closed loop system with different controllers is analysed using the bode plot. The stability of controller is established using the Lyapunov criteria.

Mobile Ad Hoc

A wireless ad hoc network is a decentralized kind of wireless network. It is a kind of temporary Computer-to-Computer connection. It is a spontaneous network which includes mobile ad-hoc network (MANET), vehicular ad-hoc network (VANET) and Flying ad-hoc network (FANET). Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is a temporary network that can be dynamically formed to exchange information by wireless nodes or routers which may be mobile. A VANET is a sub form of MANET. It is an technology that uses vehicles as nodes in a network to make a mobile network. FANET is an ad-hoc network of flying nodes. They can fly independently or can be operated distantly. In this research paper Fuzzy based control approaches in wireless network detects & avoids congestion by developing the ad-hoc fuzzy rules as well as membership functions.In this concept, two parameters have been used as: a) Channel load b) The size of queue within intermediate nodes. These parameters constitute the input to Fuzzy logic controller. The output of Fuzzy logic control (sending rate) derives from the conjunction with Fuzzy Rules Base. The parameter used input channel load, queue length which are produce the sending rate output in fuzzy logic. This fuzzy value has been used to compare the MANET, FANET and VANET in terms of the parameters Throughput, packet loss ratio, end to end delay. The simulation results reveal that usage of Qual Net 6.1 simulator has reduced packet-loss in MANET with comparing of VANET and FANET.

This paper describes the development and implementation of closed-loop control for oval stamp forming tooling using MATLAB®’s SIMULINK® and the dSPACE®CONTROLDESK®. A traditional PID controller was used for the blank holder pressure and an advanced controller utilizing fuzzy logic combining a linear quadratic gauss controller and a bang–bang controller was used to control draw bead position. The draw beads were used to control local forces near the draw beads. The blank holder pressures were used to control both wrinkling and local forces during forming. It was shown that a complex, advanced controller could be modeled using MATLAB’s SIMULINK and implemented in DSPACE CONTROLDESK. The resulting control systems for blank holder pressures and draw beads were used to control simultaneously local punch forces and wrinkling during the forming operation thereby resulting in a complex control strategy that could be used to improve the robustness of the stamp forming processes.
