In the article implementation of type-2 fuzzy controller in a microprocessor Arduino is described. The interval type-2 fuzzy sets were used to shorten the cycle time of the algorithm. The type-2 fuzzy logic controller was tested experimentally by controlling position of the shape memory alloy actuator DM series produced by Miga Motor company, the worldwide leader in the field of shape memory alloys applications. The actuator despite small size distinguishes itself by its strength. The obtained results confirmed that type-2 fuzzy controller performed efficiently with difficult to control nonlinear plant. The implemented algorithm can handle uncertainties without increasing drastically the computational complexity. To reduce the response time of the control system an additional accelerating pulse was added to the algorithm.

The main aim of this article is to present the usage of type-2 fuzzy logic controller to control a shape memory actuator. To enhance real-time performance simplified interval fuzzy sets were used. The algorithm was implemented in the ATmega32 microcontroller. The dedicated PC application was also built. The fuzzy logic controller type-2 was tested experimentally by controlling position of the shape memory alloy actuator NM70 which despite its small size distinguishes itself by its strength. The obtained results confirmed that type-2 fuzzy controller performed efficiently with a difficult to control nonlinear plant. The research also proved that interval type-2 controllers, which are a simplified version of the general type-2 controllers, are very efficient. They can handle uncertainties without increasing drastically the computational complexity. Experimental data comparison of the fuzzy logic controller type-2 with type-1 clearly indicates the superiority of the former, especially in reducing overshooting.

The control schemes of a wheelchair having two wheels with movable payload utilizing the concept of a double-link inverted pendulum have been investigated in this article. The proposed wheelchair has been simulated using SimWise 4D software considering the most efficient parameters. These parameters are extracted using the spiral dynamic algorithm while being controlled with interval type-2 fuzzy logic controller (IT2FLC). The robustness and stability of the implemented controller are assessed under different situations including standing upright, forward motion and application of varying directions and magnitudes of outer disturbances to movable (up and down) system payload. It is shown that the two-wheeled wheelchair adopted by the newly introduced controller has achieved a 94% drop in torque for both Link1 and Link2 and more than 98% fall in distance travelled in comparison with fuzzy logic control type-1 (FLCT1) controller employed in an earlier design. The present study has further considered the increased nonlinearity and complexity of the additional moving payload. From the outcome of this study, it is obvious that the proposed IT2FLC-spiral dynamic algorithm demonstrates better performance than FLCT1 to manage the uncertainties and nonlinearities in case of a movable payload two-wheel wheelchair system.

The fuzzy controllers have demonstrated their effectiveness in the control of nonlinear systems, and in many cases have established their robust and that their performance is less sensitive to parameter variations over conventional controllers. In this paper, Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Logic Controller (IT2FLC) method is proposed for controlling the speed with a direct stator flux orientation control of doubly-fed induction motor (DFIM), we made a comparison between the Type-1 Fuzzy Logic Control (T1FLC) and IT2FLC of the DFIM, first a modeling of DFIM is expressed in a (d-q) synchronous rotating frame. After the development and the synthesis of a stabilizing control laws design based on IT2FLC. We use this last approach to the control of the DFIM under different operating conditions such as load torque and in the presence of parameter variation. The obtained simulation results show the feasibility and the effectiveness of the suggested method.

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.
