In this paper, we proposed an optimal identification method of the membership functions and the numbers of fuzzy rule base for the stabilization controller of the Thermal process control system by RVEGA. Although fuzzy logic controllers and expert systems have been successfully applied in many complex industrial process, they must rely on experts knowledges. So it is difficult in determination of the linguistic state space, definition of the membership functions of each linguistic term and the derivation of the control rules. To verify the validity of this RVEGA-based fuzzy controller, Thermal process control system, with strong nonlinear dynamics, was selected for application of this algorithm and compare with PI controller, and the empirically improved fuzzy controller.

Nowadays DC-DC converter has been used widely in electronic production. It has a high requirement in wide input voltage, load variations, stability, providing a fast transient response and the most important thing is that it can be applied easily and efficiently. However, it is not easy to be controlled because of nonlinear system. This study introduces a fuzzy linear control design method for nonlinear systems with optimal $H^{\infty}$ robustness performance. First, the Takagi and Sugeno fuzzy linear model is employed to approximate a nonlinear system. Next, based on the fuzzy linear model, a fuzzy controller is developed to stabilize the nonlinear system, and at the same time the effect of external disturbance on control performance is attenuated to a minimum level. Thus based on the fuzzy linear model, ��$H^{\infty}$ performance design can be achieved in nonlinear control systems. Linear matrix inequality (LMI) techniques are employed to solve this robust fuzzy control problem. PI control structure is used and the control gains are determined based on $H^{\infty}$ control.

Generally, the accuracy of motion control systems is strongly influenced by both the mechanical characteristics and servo characteristics of feed drive systems. In the fed drive systems of machine tools that consist of mechanical parts and electrical parts, a torsional vibration is often generated because of its elastic elements in torque transmission. Especially, a torsional vibration caused by the elasticity of mechanical elements might deteriorate the quick movement of system and lead to shorten the life time of the mechanical transmission elements. So it is necessary to analyze the electromechanical system mathematically to optimize the dynamic characteristics of the feed drive system. In this paper, based on the simplifies feed drive system model, radius errors due to position gain mismatch and servo response characteristic have been developed and an optimal criterion for tuning the gain of speed controller is discussed. The proportional and integral parameter gain of the feed drive controller are optimal design variables for the gain tuning of PI speed controller. Through the optimization problem formulation, both proportional and integral parameter are optimally tuned so as to compensate the radius errors by using the genetic algorithm. As a result, higher performance on circular profile tests has been achieved than the one with standard parameters.

Recently the adaptive control system, which keeps the control system always optimal by adjusting the control parameters automatically according to the variations of the plant parameters, have become very important in the field of control engineering. The adaptive control systems are usally composed of the plant identification, the decision of the optimal control parameters, and the adjustment of the control parameters. This paper deals with a method of the adaptive control system when PI or PID controller is used in the feed back control system. Its controlled object (the plant) is assumed to be described by the transfer function of $\frac{ke^{-LS}}{1+TS}$ where k, T and L are steady state gain, time constant and pure dead time respectively, and their values are variable in accordance with the change of environmental circumstance. It has been known that a pseudo-random binary signal is quite effective for the measurement of an impulse response of a plant. In adaptive control systems, however, the impulse response itself is not appropriate to determine the control parameters. In this paper, the authors propose a method to estimate directly the parameters of the plant k, T and L by means of the correlation technique using 3 level M-sequence signal as a test signal. The authors also propose a method to determine the optimal parameters of the PI or PID controller in the sense of minimizing the square integral of the control error in the feed back control system, and the values of the optimal parameters are computed numerically for various values of T and L, and the results are examined and compared with those of the conventional methods. Finally the above-mentioned two methods are combined and an algorithm to struct an adaptive control system is suggested. The experiments for the indicial responses by means of both the model of the temperature control system using SCR actuater and the analog simulations have shown good results as expected, and the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified. The M-sequence generator and the time delay circuit, which are manufactured for the experiments, are operated in quite a good condition.

This paper deals with the controller for a stable walking of a humanoid robot using genetic algorithm. A humanoid robot has instability during walking because it isn't fixed on the ground, and its nonlinearities of the joints increase its instability. If controller isn't robust, the robot may fall down at the ground during walking because of its nonlinearities. To solve this problem, robust controller is required to reduce the effect of nonlinearities and to gain the good tracking performance. In this paper, motion controller that is based on fuzzy-sliding mode controller is proposed. This controller can remove the effect of the saturation by limitation of the input voltage. It also includes compensator for reducing the effect of the nonlinearity by backlash and PI controller improving the tracking performance. In here, genetic algorithm is used for searching the optimal gains of the controller. From the given controller, a humanoid robot can moved more preciously. All the processes are investigated through simulations and are verified experimentally in a real joint system for a humanoid robot.

Mobility of an indoor wheeled robot is affected by adhesion force that is related to various floor conditions. When the adhesion force between driving wheels and floor decreases suddenly, the robot begins slip. In order to overcome this slip problem, optimal slip velocity must be decided for stable movement of wheeled robot. First of all, this paper shows that conventional PI control can not be applied to a wheeled robot of the light weight. Secondly, proposed fuzzy logic is applied to the Takagi-Sugeno model for the configuration of fuzzy sets. For the design of Takagi-Sugeno model and fuzzy rule, proposed algorithm uses FCM(Fuzzy c-mean clustering method) algorithm. In additionally, this algorithm adjusts the driving torque for restraining re-slip. The proposed fuzzy logic controller(FLC) is pretty useful with prevention of the slip phenomena for the controller performance in the re-adhesion control strategy, These procedures are implemented using a Pioneer 2-DXE wheeled robot parameter.

This paper presents to control speed of induction motors with uncertainties. We use an adaptive backstepping controller with fuzzy neural networks(FNNs) and model reference adaptive system(MRAS) at Indirect vector control method. The adaptive backstepping controller using FNNs can control speed of induction motors even we have a minimum of information. And this controller can be used to approximate most of uncertainties which are derived from unknown motor parameters, load torque such as disturbances. MRAS estimates to rotor resistance and also can find optimal flux to minimize power losses of Induction motor. Indirect vector PI current controller is used to keep rotor flux constant without measuring or estimating the rotor flux. Simulation and experiment results are verified the effectiveness of this proposed approach.

In this paper, we describe a design procedure for cascade controller for induction motor drives based on Genetic Algorithms(GAs). Most electric drives have two separate controllers for current and speed control, which are in general designed in two consecutive steps(firstly the current controller and then the speed controller). We search simultaneously for the couple of discrete anti-windup controllers achieving the optimal compromise of weighted cost and performance indices related to both current and speed responses.

In this paper, control schemes are developed for a propulsion system(Converter/Inverter) in electrical train. A robust controller for PWM converter is proposed. The converter controller consists of a PI controller for DC output voltage and a current controller using error-space approach for maintaining the sinusoidal current waveform and unity power factor. This proposed method is based on characteristic ratio assignment(CRA) method which has the advantage to design the optimal gain to meet the referenced response and overshoot within the limit range. Inverter system is controlled by vector control and slip frequency control. At low speed region, vector control scheme is applied to control instantaneous torque and slip frequency control is performed under overmodulation region and one pulse mode. Because output voltage of converter contains harmonics ripple at twice input ac line frequency, control scheme is developed to reduce the pulsating torque current. The performance of propulsion system will be verified by simulation and prototype experimental results.

In this paper, a theoretical study is presented for the force control of a miniature robotic manipulator which is driven by a pair of piezo-electric bimorph cells. In the theoretical analysis, one finger is modeled as a flexible cantilevers with a force sensor at the tip and the finger is a solid beam. The robotic finger is used to hold the objects with different stiffness such as an iron block and a living insect and a moving objcet. So it is very important to develop an adequate controller for the holding operation of the finger. The main problems in force controlling are overdamping, overshoot and unknown environment(such as the stiffness of object and unknown plant parameters). So, the main target is propose the new fuzzy compensation for unknown environment and incease the system performance. The fuzzy compensation is implemented by using PI-type fuzzy approach to identified unknown environment. And the result of proposed controller was compared with the conventaional PID and optimal controller.
