Battery Charger

Energy demand associated with the ever-increasing penetration of electric vehicles on worldwide roads is set to rise exponentially in the coming years. The fact that more and more vehicles will be connected to the electricity network will offer greater advantages to the network operators, as the presence of an on-board battery of discrete capacity will be able to support a whole series of ancillary services or smart energy management. To allow this, the vehicle must be equipped with a bidirectional full power charger, which will allow not only recharging but also the supply of energy to the network, playing an active role as a distributed energy resource. To manage recharge and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) operations, the charger has to be more complex and has to require a fast and effective control structure. In this work, we present a control strategy for an integrated on-board battery charger with a nine-phase electric machine. The control scheme integrates a fuzzy logic controller within a voltage-oriented control strategy. The control has been implemented and simulated in Simulink. The results show how the voltage on the DC-bus is controlled to the reference value by the fuzzy controller and how the CC/CV charging mode of the battery is possible, using different charging/discharging current levels. This allows both three-phase fast charge and V2G operations with fast control response time, without causing relevant distortion grid-side (Total Harmonic Distortion is maintained around 3%), even in the presence of imbalances of the machine, and with very low ripple stress on the battery current/voltage.

Proper Scaling

A fuzzy logic – based controller has been considered to be a feasible and effective control strategy for a numerous number of complex control problems. To design such an effective fuzzy logic controller, it is necessary to determine proper scaling factors which significantly affect the control quality of the system. This study concentrates on applying well-known bio-inspired optimization methods, i.e. PSO, GA and DE, to deal with this determination. A typical PD-type fuzzy logic architecture is chosen to be a traditionally intelligent controller. Then, the bio-inspired optimization methods will be applied for such a fuzzy logic controller to optimally determine its three scaling factors. The simulation results provided for the load – frequency control issue of a two-area interconnected hydropower system verifies the applicability of the proposed control strategy. Comparative simulations are also to decide which is the best choice of the bio-inspired optimization methods in the determination of significant scaling factors regarding the PD-type fuzzy logic controller.

Hydraulic actuators are widely used in various kinds of industrial applications. High-power density is key parameters for engineering applications especially for quadruped robots applied in the outdoor environment. Therefore, an increasing number of advanced robots are equipped with hydraulic actuators. In this paper, to compensate the inherent nonlinearities and enhance the performance of the quadruped robot, a hybrid fuzzy controller composed of fuzzy logic controller and Proportion Integration Differentiation controller is evaluated both in simulations and experiments. The control strategy is developed based on the accurate mathematical model. The Matlab Simulink and Fuzzy Logic Toolbox are implemented to accomplish the simulations under flexible loads. Single hydraulic actuator and single leg experiments are accomplished on the specific platforms. Both the simulations and the experimental results indicate that the fuzzy Proportion Integration Differentiation control strategy is capable of fulfilling the specific position tracking under diverse loads. Compared with the conventional Proportion Integration Differentiation controller, the fuzzy Proportion Integration Differentiation controller provided a desirable performance under heavy load with comparatively little response and settling time. Results show that the fuzzy Proportion Integration Differentiation control strategy can effectively achieve the objective of enhancing position tracking robustness under flexible loads and improve the performance of quadruped robot.

AbstractThis work describes design and implementation of a navigation and obstacle avoidance controller using fuzzy logic for four-wheel mobile robot. The main contribution of this paper can be summarized in the fact that single fuzzy logic controller can be used for navigation as well as obstacle avoidance (static, dynamic and both) for dynamic model of four-wheel mobile robot. The bond graph is used to develop the dynamic model of mobile robot and then it is converted into SIMULINK block by using ‘S-function’ directly from SYMBOLS Shakti bond graph software library. The four-wheel mobile robot used in this work is equipped with DC motors, three ultrasonic sensors to measure the distance from the obstacles and optical encoders to provide the current position and speed. The three input membership functions (distance from target, angle and distance from obstacles) and two output membership functions (left wheel voltage and right wheel voltage) are considered in fuzzy logic controller. One hundred and sixty-two sets of rules are considered for motion control of the mobile robot. The different case studies are considered and are simulated using MATLAB-SIMULINK software platform to evaluate the performance of the controller. Simulation results show the performances of the navigation and obstacle avoidance fuzzy controller in terms of minimum travelled path for various cases.

The constantly increasing performance/price ratio of microcontrollers means electronic system can replace more and more electromechanical ones. In design, the goal is not to just replace the solution but also to improve it by adding new functionalities. The paper presents a model of industrial controller having possibility of the classical programming controller, with added elements of the fuzzy logic. Here fuzzy logic offers a technical control strategy that uses elements of everyday language. In this application, it is used to design a control strategy that adapts to the need of individual user. It achieves a higher comfort level and reduces energy consumption. Here we have used a fuzzy method which selects the contractions that best meet the specifications, where human knowledge is involved in a decision making process. With a fuzzy-logic software development system, the entire system, which includes conventional code for signal preprocessing as well as the fuzzy logic system, can be implemented on an industry-standard microcontroller. Using fuzzy logic on such a low-cost platform makes this a possible solution with most AC systems. Each home AC has a sensor that measures room temperature and compares it with the temperature set on the dial. The fuzzy logic controller uses a bimetallic switch and compares the set temperature with room temperature.

Road Following

Autonomous road following is one of the major goals in intelligent vehicle applications. The development of an autonomous road following embedded system for intelligent vehicles is the focus of this paper. A fuzzy logic controller (FLC) is designed for vision-based autonomous road following. The stability analysis of this control system is addressed. Lyapunov's direct method is utilized to formulate a class of control laws that guarantee the convergence of the steering error. Certain requirements for the control laws are presented for designers to choose a suitable rule base for the fuzzy controller in order to make the system stable. Stability of the proposed fuzzy controller is guaranteed theoretically and also demonstrated by simulation studies and experiments. Simulations using the model of the four degree of freedom nonholonomic robotic vehicle are conducted to investigate the performance of the fuzzy controller. The proposed fuzzy controller can achieve the desired steering angle and make the robotic vehicle follow the road successfully. Experiments show that the developed intelligent vehicle is able to follow a mocked road autonomously.

DC motors are included in the category of motor types that are most widely used both in industrial environments, household appliances to children's toys. The development of control technology has also made many advances from conventional control to automatic control to intelligent control. Fuzzy logic is used as a control system, because this control process is relatively easy and flexible to design without involving complex mathematical models of the system to be controlled. The purpose of this research is to study and apply the fuzzy mamdani logic method to the Arduino uno microcontroller, to control the speed of a DC motor and to control the speed of the fan. The research method used is an experimental method. Global testing is divided into three, namely sensor testing, Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) testing and Mamdani fuzzy logic control testing. The fuzzy controller output is a control command given to the DC motor. In this DC motor control system using the Mamdani method and the control system is designed using two inputs in the form of Error and Delta Error. The two inputs will be processed by the fuzzy logic controller (FLC) to get the output value in the form of a PWM signal to control the DC motor. The results of this study indicate that the fuzzy logic control system with the Arduino uno microcontroller can control the rotational speed of the DC motor as desired.

This paper presents the modeling of an intelligent combined MPPT and Lead-Acid battery charger controller for standalone solar photovoltaic systems. It involves the control of a DC/DC buck converter through a control unit, which contains two cascaded fuzzy logic controllers (FLC), that adjusts the required duty cycle of the converter according to the state of charge and the three stage lead acid battery charging system. The first fuzzy logic controller (FLC1) consists of an MPPT controller to extract the maximum power produced by the PV array, while the second fuzzy controller (FLC2) is aimed to control the voltage across the battery to ensure the three stage charging approach. This solution of employing two distinct cascaded fuzzy controllers surmounts the drawbacks of the classical chargers in which the voltage provided to the lead acid battery is not constant owing to the effects of the MPPT control which can automatically damage the battery. Thus, the suggested control strategy has the benefit of extracting the full power against the PV array, avoiding battery damage incurred by variable MPPT voltage and increasing the battery’s lifespan.

Abstract Rotary cranes (tower cranes) are common industrial structures that are used in building construction, factories, and harbors. These cranes are usually operated manually. With the size of these cranes becoming larger and the motion expected to be faster, the process of controlling them became difficult without using automatic control methods. In general, the movement of cranes has no prescribed path. Cranes have to be run under different operating conditions, which makes closed-loop control preferable. In this work a fuzzy logic controller is introduced with the idea of split-horizon; that is, fuzzy inference engines (FIE) are used for tracking the position and others are used for damping the load oscillations. The controller consists of two independent controllers: radial and rotational. Each of these controllers has two fuzzy inference engines (FTEs). Computer simulations are used to verify the performance of the controller. Three simulation cases are introduced: radial, compound, and damping. The results from the simulations show that the fuzzy controller is capable of keeping the load-oscillation angles small throughout the maneuvers while completing them in a relatively reasonable time.
