To simultaneously track the ideal slip rate and realize ideal energy recovery efficiency under different complex road conditions, an electro-hydraulic compound anti-lock braking system based on interval type-2 fuzzy logic control strategy and its corresponding braking torque allocation strategy have been developed for electric vehicles. The proposed interval type-2 fuzzy logic controller aims to calculate the ideal total braking torque by four steps, namely, fuzzification, fuzzy inference, type reduction, and defuzzification. The slip rate error and the change rate of slip rate error are utilized as inputs in the fuzzification, and then, the membership degree interval of fuzzy variables determined by the upper and lower membership functions is used to calculate the activation degree interval of different fuzzy rules in the fuzzy inference process, which enhances the anti-interference ability to external uncertainties and internal uncertainties. The braking torque allocation strategy is proposed to maintain the maximum energy recovery efficiency on the premise of safe braking. The software of MATLAB/Simulink is applied to simulate the process of anti-lock braking control under two complex road conditions. Simulation results corroborate the proposed interval type-2 fuzzy logic anti-lock braking control system can not only obtain better slip rate control effect and outstanding robustness but also achieve ideal regenerative braking energy recovery efficiency under both joint-μ and split-μ road surfaces.

The regenerative braking strategy for precursor pure electric vehicle was studied in this paper. Firstly, a constraint optimization model was established for the braking force distribution, in which both braking stability and recovery efficiency of braking energy were taken into account. Secondly, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm was applied to optimize the multi key parameters in the model. Finally, the optimized braking torque of the motor was obtained at different speed, different braking strength and different battery charge state. A vehicle model was built to validate the optimized results through simulation. The results showed that, compared with the original control strategy, the optimized control strategy not only could increase the braking stability effectively, but also improve the energy recovery efficiency in a certain extent.

According to International Regulations for Preventing Collision at Sea, collision avoidance started from assessing the collision risk. In particular, the radar was mentioned as suitable equipment for observation and analysis of the collision risk. Thus, many researches have been conducted by utilizing the radar. Fuzzy Inference System based on Type-1 Fuzzy Logic (T1FIS) using Distance to Closest Point of Approach ( D C P A ) and Time to Closest Point of Approach ( T C P A ) computed via the radar has been largely used for assessing the collision risk. However, the T1FIS had significant limitations on the membership function not including linguistic and numerical uncertainties. In order to solve the issue, we developed the Fuzzy Inference System based on Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Logic (IT2FIS) as follows: (i) the T1FIS was selected among proposed methods based on the type-1 fuzzy logic; (ii) we extended the T1FIS into the IT2FIS by gradually increasing the Footprint of Uncertainty (FOU) size taking into consideration symmetry, and (iii) numerical simulations were conducted for performance validation. As a result, the IT2FIS using the FOU size “±5%” (i.e., interval 10% between upper membership function and lower membership function) not only computed the appropriate and linear collision risk index smoothly until near-collision situation but also help to overcome uncertainties that exist in real navigation environments.

This paper presents control design based on an Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Logic (IT2FL) for the trajectory tracking of 3-RRR (3-Revolute-Revolute-Revolute) planar parallel robot. The design of Type-1 Fuzzy Logic Controller (T1FLC) is also considered for the purpose of comparison with the IT2FLC in terms of robustness and trajectory tracking characteristics. The scaling factors in the output and input of T1FL and IT2FL controllers play a vital role in improving the performance of the closed-loop system. However, using trial-and-error procedure for tuning these design parameters is exhaustive and hence an optimization technique is applied to achieve their optimal values and to reach an improved performance. In this study, Social Spider Optimization (SSO) algorithm is proposed as a useful tool to tune the parameters of proportional-derivative (PD) versions of both IT2FLC and T1FLC. Two scenarios, based on two square desired trajectories (with and without disturbance), have been tested to evaluate the tracking performance and robustness characteristics of proposed controllers. The effectiveness of controllers have been verified via numerical simulations based on MATLAB/SIMULINK programming software, which showed the superior of IT2FLC in terms of robustness and tracking errors.
