Obtaining the required performance, stability, and robustness in real-time control of induction motors usually requires the use of complex controllers, however through multiple experimentations, many challenges have arisen from such methods. The complex structure of control methods in real-time applications is usually computationally challenging and energy consuming, hence the need for a simple control strategy to overcome these challenges, in this paper, we focus on designing an advanced hybrid control strategy with a simple design applied to an induction motor. Mainly, the hybrid controller used in this study has the benefits of joining the best performance of both fuzzy logic controller and sliding mode controller, specifically designed to handle each phase separately, the transition phase and the steady phase. A fuzzy controller intervenes as a supervisor in our control structure, more specifically it manages the switch from one type of control to the other taking into account the intervention phase of each type of controller by commanding the rate of both controllers. Control performance analysis was carried out in a real experimental setup to validate the efficiency and robustness of the proposed hybrid controller and confirm its effectiveness in handling the compromise between overshoot and response time.

In this paper, a hybrid fault-tolerant control strategy is putted forward to improve the stability of the four-wheel independent drive (4WID) electric vehicle with motor failures. To improve the handling performance of the vehicle with in-wheel motor failures, the faults of in-wheel motors are analyzed and modeled. Then, a model reference adaptive fault observer was designed to observe the faults in real-time. Based on the observation results, there are designed a model predictive control (MPC) based high-performance active fault-tolerant control (AFTC) strategy and a sliding mode control based high-robust passive fault-tolerant control (PFTC) strategy. However, the fault observation results may not always be accurately. For this circumstance, a hybrid fault-tolerant control strategy was designed to make the control method find a balance between optimality and robustness. Finally, a series of simulations are conducted on a hardware-in-loop (HIL) real-time simulator, the simulation results show that the control strategy designed in this paper is effectiveness.

Fuzzy control, an intelligent control method, is generally employed to deal with complex nonlinear controlled objects that cannot be expressed by accurate mathematical model. Memristor, whose unique advantages are automatic successive memory and nonvolatility, brought new opportunity for solving the key question of fuzzy control. With the design idea of software harden, this paper first constructed membership function in the fuzzy controller based on the unique feature of crossbar array of the spintronic memristor and elaborated the whole construction process. After that, this paper simulated the construction process with MATLAB simulation software, verifying its reasonability and feasibility. Furthermore, a typical fuzzy control water tank system was chosen to explore and discuss the flexibility of spintronic memristor crossbar array in the real-time control system, and the proposed control strategy and the typical fuzzy control strategy were compared. The results revealed that the proposed control strategy was able to attain the effectiveness of the typical fuzzy control system in the real-time control system. This sets light to future research on the implementation of memristor crossbar array in the real-time control system and also promotes the application of fuzzy controller design idea. The problems needed to be solved when implementing memristor crossbar array in the real-time control system were discussed in the final section.

Any real-time control application run by a digital computer (or any sequential machine) demands a very fast processor in order to make the time-lag from data sensing to issuance of a control action closest to zero. In some instances, the algorithm used requires a relatively large primary memory which is crucial especially when implemented in a microcontroller. This paper presents a novel implementation of a multi-output fuzzy controller (which is known in this paper as MultiOFuz), which utilizes lesser memory and executes faster than a type of an existing multiple single-output fuzzy logic controllers. The design and implementation of the developed controller employed the object-oriented approach with program level code optimizations. MultiOFuz is a reusable software component and the simplicity of how to interface this to control applications is presented. Comparative analyses of algorithms, memory usage and simulations are presented to support our claim of increased efficiency in both execution time and storage use. Future directions of MultiOFuz are also discussed.

Background: A multi-motor synchronous drive control system is widely used in many fields, such as electric vehicle drive, paper making, and printing. Methods: On the basis of the optimized structure of ADRC, a fuzzy first-order active disturbance rejection controller was developed. Double channels compensation of extended state observer was employed to estimate and compensate the total disturbances, and an approximate linearization and deterministic system was obtained. As the parameters of ADRC are adjusted online by a fuzzy controller, the performance of the controller is effectively improved. Results: Based on the SIMATIC S7-300 induction motor control experimental platform, the performances of anti-interference and tracking performance are tested. Conclusion: The actual experimental results indicated that compared with PID control, induction motor drive system controlled by fuzzy ADRC has higher dynamic and static status and following performances and stronger anti-interference abilities.

Considering the energy consumption and specific performance requirements of mining trucks, a novel uninterrupted multi-speed transmission is proposed in this paper, which is composed of a power-split device, and a three-speed lay-shaft transmission with a traction motor. The power-split device is adapted to enhance the efficiency of the engine by adjusting the gear ratio continuously. The three-speed lay-shaft transmission is designed based on the efficiency map of traction motor to guarantee the drivability. The combination of the power-split device and three-speed lay-shaft transmission can realize uninterrupted gear shifting with the proposed shift strategy, which benefits from the proposed adjunct function by adequately compensating the torque hole. The detailed dynamic models of the system are built to verify the effectiveness of the proposed shift strategy. To evaluate the maximum fuel efficiency that the proposed uninterrupted multi-speed transmission could achieve, dynamic programming is implemented as the baseline. Due to the “dimension curse” of dynamic programming, a real-time control strategy is designed, which can significantly improve the computing efficiency. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed uninterrupted multi-speed transmission with dynamic programming and real-time control strategy can improve fuel efficiency by 11.63% and 8.51% compared with conventional automated manual transmission system, respectively.
