A rule based fuzzy expert system to self-tune PID controllers is proposed in this paper. The proposed expert system contains two rule bases, where one is responsible for "Long term tuning" and the other for "Incremental tuning". The rule for "Long term tuning" are extracted from the Wills'map and the knowledge about the implicit relations between PID gains and important long term features of the output response such as overshoot, damping and rise time, etc., while 'Incremental tuning" rules are obtained from the relations between PID gains and short term features, error and change in error. In the PID control environment, the proposed expert system operates in two phases sequentially. In the first phase, the long term tuning is performed until long term features meet their desired values approximately. Then the incremental tuning tarts with PID gains provided by the long term tuning procedure. It is noticeable that the final PID gains obtained in the incremental tuning phase are only the temporal ones. Simulation results show that the proposed rule base for "Long term tuning" provides superior control performance to that of Litt and that further improvement of control performance is obtained by the "Incremental tuning'.ance is obtained by the "Incremental tuning'.ing'.

This paper proposes an autopilot system using a fuzzy PID controller to satisfy performances required for the automatic navigation of ships under various marine circumstances. The existing autopilot system using a PD type controller has difficulties in eliminating a steady-state error and compensating nonlinear characteristics of ships. The autopilot system using the proposed fuzzy PID controller has a self-tuning ability, an ability to compensate nonlinear characteristics, and an ability to turn at constant angular velocity. Therefore. it can naturally make a steady-state error zero, compensate nonlinear dynamic effect of ships, have an adaptability to parameter variation owing to shallow water effect, and have an ability to turn ship's course rapidly without overshoot through procedures of acceleration, constant, and deceleration of angular velocity for large course-changing.

Surge phenomenon can be occurred in a compressor when the performance of turbofan engine for an aircraft is changed considerably such as take-off phase. This study is aimed to avoid surge phenomenon. This paper propose the PID and Fuzzy control System for the turbofan engine with control inputs, the VIGV(Variable Inlet Guide Vane) in closed loop, and the fuel mass flow in open loop. We design the Dynamic modeling, NPSS S-function, which is connection block of simulink between NPSS(Engine analysis program) and Simulink. Finally, we certify the performance to prevent a serge phenomenon in the VIGV control system using the both methods, PID and fuzzy.

In this paper, a DC servo motor position control system based on acceleration control is proposed. The proposed control system consists of an acceleration controller and an auto-tuqing fuzzy PID controller. The auto-tuning fuzzy PID controller provides corrections for an acceleration reference to remove the effect of parametric uncertainties. And it comprises of the expert system which performs the automatic tuning of the PID controller parameters and the conventional PID controller. Expermental results demonstrate strate thi~tth e proposed overall control system has robust properties and good control performances with regard to unmeasurable disturbances and parameter variations. Therefore, the proposed control scheme enhances the applicability of an acceleration control approach and especially performs accurate position control under such an operating environment that model uncertainties exist and/or load, etc. change significantly.

In this paper, a 3-D simulator was developed to estimate visually the performance of propelling and integrated control system of the underwater cleaning robot. Based on the dynamics analysis of the UCR, the 3-D model of the UCR was used in the simulator in which position and velocity are included Also, an input and control system using a joystick was developed, and the simulator was applied to the input and control of the simulator. Moreover, an integrated navigation control system was designed, and its performance was validated by a way-point simulator including a PI-based fuzzy control law.

This paper developed the algorithm for improving the performance the auto pilot in the autonomous vehicle system consisting of the Track keeping control, the Automatic steering, and the Automatic mooring control. The automatic steering is the control device that could save the voyage distance and cost of fuel by reducing the unnecessary burden of driving due to the continuous artificial navigation, and avoiding the route deviation. During the step of the ship autonomic navigation control, since the wind power or the tidal force could make the ship deviate from the fixed course, the automatic steering calculates the difference between actual sailing line and the set course to keep the ship sailing in the vicinity of intended course. first, we could get the transfer function for the modeling of ship according to the Nomoto model. Considering the maneuverability, we propose it as linear model with only 4 degree of freedoms to present the heading angle response to the input of rudder angle. In this paper, the model of ship is derived from the simplified Nomoto model. Since the proposed model considers the maximum angle and rudder rate of the ship auto pilot and also designs the Fuzzy controller based on existing PID controller, the performance of the steering machine is well improved.

The main motivation of this research is to develop an intelligent control strategy for Activated Sludge Process (ASP). ASP is a complex and nonlinear dynamic system because of the characteristic of wastewater, the change in influent flow rate, weather conditions, and etc. The mathematical model of ASP also includes uncertainties which are ignored or not considered by process engineer or controller designer. The ASP is generally controlled by a PID controller that consists of fixed proportional, integral, and derivative gain values. The PID gains are adjusted by the expert who has much experience in the ASP. The ASP model based on $Matlab^{(R)}5.3/Simulink^{(R)}3.0$ is developed in this paper. The performance of the model is tested by IWA(International Water Association) and COST(European Cooperation in the field of Scientific and Technical Research) data that include steady-state results during 14 days. The advantage of the developed model is that the user can easily modify or change the controller by the help of the graphical user interface. The ASP model as a typical nonlinear system can be used to simulate and test the proposed controller for an educational purpose. Various control methods are applied to the ASP model and the control results are compared to apply the proposed intelligent control strategy to a real ASP. Three control methods are designed and tested: conventional PID controller, fuzzy logic control approach to modify setpoints, and fuzzy-PID control method. The proposed setpoints changer based on the fuzzy logic shows a better performance and robustness under disturbances. The objective function can be defined and included in the proposed control strategy to improve the effluent water quality and to reduce the operating cost in a real ASP.
