Electric vehicles (EV) are developing fast during this decade due to drastic issues on the protection of environment and the shortage of energy sources, so new technologies allow the development of electric vehicles (EV) by means of electric motors associated with static converters. The proposed propulsion system consists of two induction motors (IM) that ensure the drive of the two back driving wheels. The electronic differential system ensures the robust control of the vehicle behavior on the road. It also allows controlling, independently, every driving wheel to turn at different speeds in any curve. This paper presents the study of an hybrid Fuzzy-sliding mode control (SMC) strategy for the electric vehicle driving wheels, stability improvement, in which the fuzzy logic system replace the discontinuous control action of the classical SMC law. Our electric vehicle fuzzy-sliding mode control's simulated in Matlab SIMULINK environment, the results obtained present the efficiency of the proposed control with no overshoot, the rising time is perfected with good disturbances rejections comparing with the classical control law.

An induction motor operated with a conventional direct self controller(DSC) shows a sluggish response during startup and under changes of torque command. Fuzzy logic controller(FLC) is used in conjunction with DSC to minimize these problems. A FLC chooses the switching states based on a set of fuzzy variables. Flux position, error in flux magnitude and error in torque are used as fuzzy state variables. Fuzzy rules are determinated by observing the vector diagram of flux and currents. This paper proposes hybrid FLC for direct torque control(DTC) of induction motor drives. This controller is controlled speed using hybrid FLC. The performance of the proposed induction motor drive with hybrid FLC is verified by analysis results at various operation conditions.

Magnetic flywheel system utilizes a magnetic bearing, which is able to support the shaft without mechanical contacts, and also it is able to control rotational vibration. Magnetic flywheel system is composed of position sensors, a digital controller, actuating amplifiers, an electromagnet and a flywheel. This work applies the neuro-fuzzy control algorithm to control the vibration of a magnetic flywheel system. It proposes the design skill of an optimal controller when the system has structured uncertainty and unstructured uncertainty, i.e. it has a difficulty in extracting the exact mathematical model. Inhibitory action of vibration was verified at the specified rotating speed. Unbalance response, a serious problem in rotating machinery, is improved by using a magnetic bearing with neuro-fuzzy algorithm.

In this paper, a fuzzy inference control system is proposed for a turbojet engine with fuel flow control input only. The proposed control system provides a practical fuel flow control method to prevent surge or flame out during engine acceleration or deceleration. A fuzzy logic is designed to obtain the fast acceleration and deceleration of the engine under the condition that the operating point should stay between the surge line and flame out control line. With using both engine rotating speed error and surge margin as fuzzy input variables, the desired engine rotating speed can be achieved to rapidly follow the engine control line without engine stall. Computer simulation using the MATLAB is realized to prove the proposed control performance to the turbojet engine which is linear modelized using DYGABCD program package.

In this paper, the sensorless MPPT algorithm is proposed where the performance of varied duty ratio change has been improved using multi-layer neuro-fuzzy that aligns with neuro-fuzzy based optimized membership function. Since the change of duty ratio of sensorless MPPT is varied by using the neuro-fuzzy, the MPPT response speed is faster than the convectional method and is able to reduce the steady-state ripple. The neuro fuzzy controller has the response characteristics which is superior to the existing fuzzy controller, because of the usage of the optimal width of the fuzzy membership function. The effectiveness of the proposed method has been verified by simulations and experimental results.

Recently , there have been considerable researches about the fusion of fuzzy logic and neural networks. The propose of thise researches is to combine the advantages of both. After the function of approximation using GMDP (Generalized Multi-Denderite Product)neural network for defuzzification operation of fuzzy controller, a new fuzzy-neural network is proposed. Fuzzy membership function of the proposed fuzzy-neural network can be adjusted by learning in order to be adaptive to the variations of a parameter or the external environment. To show the applicability of the proposed fuzzy-nerual network, the proposed model is applied to a speed control o fDC sevo motor. By the hardware implementation, we obtained the desriable results.

The plate manufacturing processes are composed of the reheating furnace, finishing mill, cooling process and hot leveling. The finishing rolling mill (FM) as a reversing mill has produced the plate steel through multiple pass rolling. The automatic gauge control (AGC) is employed to maintain the thickness tolerance. The high grade products are forming greater parts of the manufacturing and customers are requiring strict thickness margin. For this reason, the advanced AGC method is required instead of the conventional AGC based on the PI control. To overcome the slow response performance of the conventional AGC and the thickness measurement delay, a fuzzy AGC based on the thickness deviation and its trend is proposed in this paper. An embedded controller with the fuzzy AGC has been developed and implemented at the plate mill in POSCO. The fuzzy AGC has dynamically controlled the roll gap in real time with the programmable logic controller (PLC). On line tests have been performed for the general and TMCP products. As the results, the thickness deviation range (maximum - minimum of the inner plate) is averagely from 0.3 to 0.1 mm over the full length. The fuzzy AGC has improved thickness deviation and completely satisfied customer needs.

The paper is proposed high performance control of induction motor drive with adaptive fuzzy logic controller(AFLC). Also, this paper is proposed speed control of induction motor using AFLC and estimation of speed using artificial neural network(ANN) controller. The back propagation neural network technique is used to provide a real time adaptive estimation of the motor speed. The error between the desired state variable and the actual one is back-propagated to adjust the rotor speed, so that the actual state variable will coincide with the desired one. The proposed control algorithm is applied to induction motor drive system controlled AFLC and ANN controller. And this paper is proposed the results to verify the effectiveness of the AFLC and ANN controller.

In this paper, adaptive evolutionary algorithm(AEA) is proposed, which uses both genetic algorithm(GA) with good global search capability and evolution strategy(ES) with good local search capability in an adaptive manner, when population evolves to the next generation. In the reproduction procedure, proportion of the population for GA and ES is adaptively determined according to their fitness. The AEA is used to design membership functions and scaling factors of the fuzzy logic controller(FLC). To evaluate the performance of the proposed FLC design method, we make an experiment on the FLC for the speed control of an actual DC series motor system with nonlinear characteristics. Experimental results show that the proposed controller has better performance than PD controller.

Vehicle dynamics control systems are. complex and non-linear, so they have difficulties in developing a controller for the anti-lock braking systems and the auto-traction systems. Currently the fuzzy-logic technique to estimate the absolute vehicle speed is good results in normal conditions. But the estimation error in severe braking is discontented. In this paper, we estimate the absolute vehicle speed by using the wheel speed data from standard 50-tooth anti-lock braking system wheel speed sensors. Radial symmetric basis function of the neural network model is proposed to implement and estimate the absolute vehicle speed, and principal component analysis on input data is used. Ten algorithms are verified experimentally to estimate the absolute vehicle speed and one of those is perfectly shown to estimate the vehicle speed with a 4% error during a braking maneuver.
