The Neural Network

A method for optimizing the parameters of a modular half-speed synchronous generator with permanent magnets (PMSG) and the generator voltage control system with a neural network-based algorithm are proposed. The basic design scheme of the modular half-speed PMSG is considered, which features a compact layout of the generator main parts, thereby ensuring the optimal use of the working volume, smaller sizes of the magnetic system, and smaller mass of the active materials used in manufacturing the machine. Owing to the simple and reliable design of the generator, its output parameters can be varied in a wide range with using standard electrical circuits for voltage stabilization and current rectification along with an additional voltage regulation unit. Owing to this feature, the design scheme of the considered generator has essential advantages over the existing analogs with a common cylindrical magnetic core. In view of these circumstances, the development of a high-efficient modular half-speed PMSG as an autonomous DC power source is of both scientific and practical interest; this generator can be used to supply power to a large range of electricity consumers located in rural areas, low-rise residential areas, military communities, allotments etc. In solving the problem of optimizing the generator’s magnetic system, the main electrical machine analysis equation is obtained. The optimal ratios of the winding wire mass to the mass of permanent magnets and of the PM height to the air gap value for achieving the maximum specific useful power output have been determined. An analytical correlation between the optimal design parameters of a half-speed modular PMSG and its power performance parameters has been established. The expediency to develop a neural network-based control system is shown. The number of load-bearing modules of the half-speed PMSG is determined depending on the wind velocity, load factor and the required output voltage. The neural network was trained on the examples of a training sample using a laboratory test bench. The neural network was implemented in the MatLab 2019b environment by constructing a synchronous generator simulation model in the Simulink software extension. The possibility of using the voltage control system of a half-speed modular PMSG with a microcontroller for operation of the neural network platform of the Arduino family (ArduinoDue) independently of the PC is shown.

The fracture problems of ecomaterial (aluminum alloyed cast iron) under extra-low cycle rotating bending fatigue loading were studied using artificial neural networks (ANN) in this paper. The training data were used in the formation of training set of ANN. The ANN model exhibited excellent in results comparison with the experimental results. It was concluded that predicted fracture design parameters by the trained neural network model seem more reasonable compared to approximate methods. It is possible to claim that, ANN is fairly promising prediction technique if properly used. Training ANN model was introduced at first. And then the Training data for the development of the neural network model was obtained from the experiments. The input parameters, notch depth, the presetting deflection and tip radius of the notch, and the output parameters, the cycle times of fracture were used during the network training. The neural network architecture is designed. The ANN model was developed using back propagation architecture with three layers jump connections, where every layer was connected or linked to every previous layer. The number of hidden neurons was determined according to special formula. The performance of system is summarized at last. In order to facilitate the comparisons of predicted values, the error evaluation and mean relative error are obtained. The result show that the training model has good performance, and the experimental data and predicted data from ANN are in good coherence.

This Chapter presents the design of an adaptive recurrent neural observer-controller scheme for nonlinear systems whose model is assumed to be unknown and with constrained inputs. The control scheme is composed of a neural observer based on Recurrent High Order Neural Networks which builds the state vector of the unknown plant dynamics and a learning adaptation law for the neural network weights for both the observer and identifier. These laws are obtained via control Lyapunov functions. Then, a control law, which stabilizes the tracking error dynamics is developed using the Lyapunov and the inverse optimal control methodologies . Tracking error boundedness is established as a function of design parameters.

One of the most important operational requirements for any electrical power network for both distribution and transmission level is voltage control. Many studies have been carried out to improve or develop new voltage control techniques to facilitate safe connection of distributed generation. In Saudi Arabia, due to environmental, economic and development perspectives, a wide integration of photovoltaic (PV) genera-tion in distribution network is expected in the near future. This development in the network may cause voltage regulation problems due to the interaction with the existing conventional control system. In a previous paper, a control system has been described using a fuzzy logic control to set the on-line tap changer for the primary substation. In this paper a new control system is proposed for controlling the power factor of individual PV invertors based on observed correlation between net active and reactive power at each connection. A fuzzy logic control has been designed to alter the power factor for the remote invertors from the secondary substation to keep the feeder voltage within the permissible limits. In order to confirm the validity of the proposed method, simulations are carried out for a realistic distribution network with real data for load and solar radiation. Results showing the performance of the new control method are presented and discussed.

Pool Sizes

In gas metal arc (GMA) welding processes, the geometrical shape and size of the weld pool are utilized to assess the integrity of the weld quality. Monitoring of these geometrical parameters for on-line process control as well as for on-line quality evaluation, however, is an extremely difficult problem. The paper describes the design of a neural network estimator to estimate weld pool sizes for on-line use in quality monitoring and control. The neural network estimator is designed to estimate the weld pool sizes from surface temperatures measured at various points on the top surface of the weldment. The main task of the neural network is to realize the mapping characteristics from the point temperatures to the weld pool sizes through training. The chosen design parameters of the neural network estimator, such as the number of hidden layers and the number of nodes in a layer, are based on an estimation error analysis. A series of bead-on-plate welding experiments were performed to assess the performance of the neural network estimator. The experimental results show that the proposed neural network estimator can estimate the weld pool sizes with satisfactory accuracy.

Abstract In this study a Neural Network based fault tolerant control is proposed to accommodate oil leakages in a magnetorheological suspension system based in a half car dynamic model. This model consists of vehicle body (spring mass) connected by the MR suspension system to two lateral wheels (unsprung mass). The semi-active suspension system is a four states nonlinear model; it can be written as a state space representation. The main objectives of a suspension are: Isolate the chassis from road disturbances (passenger comfort) and maintain contact between tire and road to provide better maneuverability, safety and performance. On the other hand, component faults/failures are inevitable in all practical systems, the shock absorbers of semi-active suspensions are prone to fail due to fluid leakage but quickly detect and diagnose this fault in the system, avoid major damage to the system and ensure the safety of the driver. To successfully achieve desirable control performance, it is necessary to have a damping force model which can accurately represent the highly nonlinear and hysteretic dynamic of the MR damper. To simulate parameters of the damper, a quasi-static model was applied, quasi-static approaches are based on non-newtonian yield stress fluids flow by using the Bingham MR Damper Model, relating the relative displacement of the piston, the frictional force, a damping constant, the stiffness of the elastic element of the damper and an offset force. The Fault detection and isolation module is based on residual generation algorithms. The residua r is computed as the difference between the displacement signal of functional and faulty model, when the residual is close to zero, the process is free of faults, while any change in r represents a faulty scheme then a wavelet transform, (Morlet wave function) is used to determine the natural frequencies and amplitudes of displacement and acceleration signal during the failure, this module provides parameters to the neural network controller in order to accommodate the failure using compensation forces from the remaining healthy damper. The neural network uses the error between the plant output and the neural network plant for computing the required electric current to correct the malfunction using the inverse dynamics function of the MR damper model. Consequently, a bump condition, and a random profile road (ISO 8608) described by the power spectral density (PSD) of its vertical displacement, is used as disturbance of control system. The performance of the proposed FTC structure is demonstrated trough simulation. Results shows that the control system could reduce the effect of the partial fault of the MR Damper on system performance.

The bearingless induction motor (BLIM) is a multi-variable, non-linear, strong coupling system. To achieve higher performance control, a novel neural network inverse system decoupling control strategy considering stator current dynamics is proposed. Taking the stator current dynamics of the torque windings into account, the state equations of the BLIM system is established first. Then, the inverse system model of the BLIM is identified by a three-layer neural network; by means of the neural network inverse system method, the BLIM system is decoupled into four independent second-order linear subsystems, include a rotor flux subsystem, a motor speed subsystem and two radial displacement component subsystems. On this basis, the neural network inverse decoupling control system is constructed, the simulation verification and analyses are performed. From the simulation results, it is clear that when the proposed decoupling control strategy is adopted, not only can the dynamic decoupling control between relevant variables be achieved, but the control system has a stronger anti-load disturbance ability, smaller overshoot and better tracking performance.
