Since a gas turbine is made use of generating electricity for peak time, it is a very important to operate a peak time load with safety. The main components of a gas turbine are the compressor, the combustion chamber and the turbine. So, there also must be modeled a component of gas turbines for the control with safety but it is not easy. In this paper we acquire a transfer function based on the operations data of Gun-san gas turbine and study to apply Neural-Network 2-DOF PID controler to control loop of gas turbine to reduce phenomena caused by integral and derivative actions through simulation. We obtained satisfactory results to disturbances of subcontrol loop such as, fuel flow, air flow, turbine extraction temperature.

In this paper, the design of PID controller using Neural networks for the control of non-linear system is presented. First, non-linear system is identified using BPN(Backpropagation Network) algorithm. This identified model is connected to the PID controller and the parameters of PID controller are updated to the direction of reducing the difference between the identified model output and model reference output in arbitrary input signal. Therefore, identified model output tracks the model reference output in an acceptable error range and the parameters of controller are updated adaptively. The output of the system has a good performance in case of both noisy and noiseless model reference and we can control the system stable in off-line when the dynamics of the system is changed.

A neural network based controller (NN controller) was studied for the control of ammonia concentrations in biological processes. An ammonia FIA has been employed to on-line monitor the concentrations of ammonia in a bioreactor. The optimal neural network structure was investigated by computer simulation and found to be a 3(inputlayer)-2(hidden layer)-1(output layer). The NN controller had advantage over the PID controller, even though the former is more time consuming. The 3-2-1 NN controller has been used to control the ammonia concentrations in a simulated bioprocess and also in a real cultivation process of yeast, and its performance were investigated.

A switching control using multiple gains in the fuzzy rule is newly proposed for an abruptly changing hydraulic servo system. The proposed scheme employs fuzzy PID control, where modified input parameters are used, and LVQNN(Learning Vector Quantization Neural Network) as a switching controller (supervisor). Simulation and experimental studies have been carried out to validate and illustrate the proposed controller.

This paper suggests that the immune network algorithm based on fuzzy set can effectively be used in tuning of a PID controller for multivariable process or nonlinear process. The artificial immune network always has a new parallel decentralized processing mechanism for various situations, since antibodies communicate to each other among different species of antibodies/B-cells through the stimulation and suppression chains among antibodies that from a large-scaled network. In addition to that, the structure of the network is not fixed, but varies continuously. On the other hand, a number of tuning technologies have been considered for the tuning of a PID controller. As a less common method, the fuzzy and neural network or its combined techniques are applied. However, in the case of the latter, yet, it is not applied in the practical field, in the former, a higher experience and technology is required during tuning procedure. Along with these, this paper used the fuzzy set in order that the stimulation and suppression relationship between antibody and antigen can be more adaptable controlled against the external condition, including noise or disturbance of plant. The immune network based on fuzzy set suggested here is applied for the PID controller tuning of multivariable process with two inputs and one output and is simulated.

In thermal power plant, the efficiency of a combined power plant with a gas turbine increases, exceeding 50%, while the efficiency of traditional steam turbine plants is approximately 35% to 40%. Up to the present time, the PID controller has been used to operate this system. However, it is very difficult to achieve an optimal PID gain without any experience, since the gain of the PID controller has to be manually tuned by trial and error procedures. This paper focuses on the neural network tuning of the 2-DOF PID controller with a separated 2-DOF parameter (NN-Tuning 2-DOF PID controller), for optimal control of the Gun-san gas turbine generating plant in Seoul. Korea. In order to attain optimal control, transfer function and operating data from start-up, running, and stop procedures of the Gun-san gas turbine have been acquired, and a designed controller has been applied to this system. The results of the NN-Tuning 2-DOF PID are compared with the PID controller and the conventional 2-DOF PID controller tuned by the Ziegler-Nichols method through experimentation. The experimental results of the NN-Tuning 2-DOF PID controller represent a more satisfactory response than those of the previously-mentioned two controller.

A newly developed discrete-time control design method for impact machines is proposed. It is composed of identification and control using neural networks, where the optimal controller with saturationn and no use of velocity measurements is obtained. By computer simulation, the proposed method is demonstrated to be effective: as the training progresses, the cost function becomes smaller, the proposed control is superior to PID control tuned with Ziegler-Nichols (Z-N) parameters; robust performance with respect to uncertainty, disturbances and working time is so good.

Industrial robots are powerful, extremely accurate multi-jointed systems, but they are heavy and highly rigid because of their mechanical structure and motorization. Therefore, sharing the robot working space with its environment is problematic. A novel pneumatic artificial muscle actuator (PAM actuator) has been regarded during the recent decades as an interesting alternative to hydraulic and electric actuators. Its main advantages are high strength and high power/weight ratio, low cost, compactness, ease of maintenance, cleanliness, readily available and cheap power source, inherent safety and mobility assistance to humans performing tasks. The PAM is undoubtedly the most promising artificial muscle for the actuation of new types of industrial robots such as Rubber Actuator and PAM manipulators. However, some limitations still exist, such as the air compressibility and the lack of damping ability of the actuator bring the dynamic delay of the pressure response and cause the oscillatory motion. In addition, the nonlinearities in the PAM manipulator still limit the controllability. Therefore, it is not easy to realize motion with high accuracy and high speed and with respect to various external inertia loads in order to realize a human-friendly therapy robot To overcome these problems a novel controller, which harmonizes a phase plane switching control method with conventional PID controller and the adaptabilities of neural network, is newly proposed. In order to realize satisfactory control performance a variable damper - Magneto-Rheological Brake (MRB) is equipped to the joint of the manipulator. Superb mixture of conventional PID controller and a phase plane switching control using neural network brings us a novel controller. This proposed controller is appropriate for a kind of plants with nonlinearity uncertainties and disturbances. The experiments were carried out in practical PAM manipulator and the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm was demonstrated through experiments, which had proved that the stability of the manipulator can be improved greatly in a high gain control by using MRB with phase plane switching control using neural network and without regard for the changes of external inertia loads.

In this paper, we propose PID type direct control method using single neuron neural network. The proposed method has an output error and 2 time-delay as inputs and is designed to have input weights composed of P, I, D parameters to be controlled through teaming. We could verify the better performance of this system than the conventional method through simulations. And the reduced calculation, due to single neuron, makes it possible the real time processing, and the simple implementation.

Concentrations of substrates, glucose, and ammionia in biological processes have been on-line monitored by using glucose-flow injection (FIA) and ammonia-FIA systems. Based on the on-line monitored data the concentrations of substrates have been controlled by an on-off controller, a PID controller, and a neural network (NN) based controller. A simulation program has been developed to test the control quality of each controller and to estimate the control parameters. The on-off controller often produced high oscillations at the set point due to its low robustness. The control quality of a PID controller could have been improved by a high analysis frequency and by a short residence time of sample in a FIA system. A NN-based controller with 3 layers has been developed, and a 3(input)-2(hidden)-1(output) network structure has been found to be optimal for the NN-based controller. The performance of the three controllers has been tested in a simulated process as well as in a cultivation process of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and the performance has also been compared to simulation results. The NN-based controller with the 3-2-1 network structure was robust and stable against some disturbances, such as a sudden injection of distilled water into a biological process.
