Recently, the needs of system performances such as working speed and processing accuracy in machine tools have been increased. Especially, the working speed increment generates harmful heat at both moving part of the machine tools and handicrafts. The heat is a main drawback to progress accuracy of the processing. Hence, a oil cooler to control temperature is inevitable for the machine tools. In general, two representative control schemes, hot-gas bypass and variable speed control of a compressor, have been adopted in the oil cooler system. This paper deals with design and implementation method of fuzzy controller for obtaining precise temperature characteristic of HB oil cooler system in machine tools. The opening angle of an electronic expansion valve are controlled to keep reference value and room temperature of temperature at oil outlet. Especially, the fuzzy controller is added to suppress temperature fluctuation under abrupt disturbances. Through some experiments, the suggested method can control the target temperature within steady state error of ${\pm}0.22^{\circ}C$.

The active tuned mass damper (ATMD) is an efficient and reliable structural control system for mitigating the dynamic response of structures. The inertial force that an ATMD exerts on a structure to attenuate its otherwise large kinetic energy and undesirable vibrations and displacements is proportional to its excursion. Achieving a balance between the inertial force and excursion requires a control law or feedback mechanism. This study presents a technique for the optimum design of a sliding mode controller (SMC) as the control law for ATMD-equipped structures subjected to earthquakes. The technique includes optimizing an SMC under an artificial earthquake followed by testing its performance under real earthquakes. The SMC of a real 11-story shear building is optimized to demonstrate the technique, and its performance in mitigating the displacements of the building under benchmark near- and far-fault earthquakes is compared against that of a few other techniques (proportional-integral-derivative [PID], linear-quadratic regulator [LQR], and fuzzy logic control [FLC]). Results indicate that the optimum SMC outperforms PID and LQR and exhibits performance comparable to that of FLC in reducing displacements.

Recently, many electronic control techniques for vehicles have been developed and applied. One of the technologies can be X-by-wire such as throttle-by-wire, brake-by-wire, steer-by-wire, and etc, in which most of mechanical parts are replaced into electrical wire and actuators. In this study, the effect of throttle-by-wire and brake-by-wire control systems on vehicle velocity control, especially in a school zone, are taken into consideration. The number of accidents reported in school zones is higher than that in other places. The reason for this is that many vehicle drivers do not obey speed limit regulations. Moreover, some of the students are careless while crossing the streets. Therefore, in this study, we attempt to develop a method using throttle-by-wire and brake-by-wire control systems for automatically reducing the vehicle speed such that it will be within the speed limit. First, an engine model and a transmission system model are developed for a specific vehicle model. Second, speed reduction is carried out such that the reduction follows a pre-designed cubic spline trajectory; the trajectory is determined such that rapid deceleration, which causes discomfort to the driver and passengers, can be prevented, for which a fuzzy-PID control algorithm is applied for the trajectory following control. Finally, simulation results are presented to verify the performance of the proposed speed reduction control system.

본 논문에서는 비선형 시변 시스템을 제어할 경우 제어시스템의 안정성을 보장하고 성능을 향상시키기 위한 새로운 적응제어 구조를 전개하였다. 주어진 플랜트가 선형 시불변이라는 가정하에 표준 기준 모델 적응제어기가 적용될 경우 발생되는 출력오차는 플랜트의 비선형 시변특성으로 인하여 점근적으로 0에 수렴되지 않는다. 이때 미지의 출력오차를 점근적으로 0에 수렴시키는 방법으로 퍼지보상기를 사용하였으며 결과적으로 플랜트의 비선형 시변 특성을 보상하는 효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 퍼지 보상기로는 출력오차등의 조건에 따라 이득이 변하는 퍼지 PID 보상기를 도입하여 안정하게 설계되도록 노력하였다. 또한 출력오차를 점근적으로 0에 수렴시키는 것은 표준 기준 모델 적응제어기 내부의 모든 파라미터와 신호가 유한하게 됨을 의미하기 때문에, 제어시스템 전체의 안정도를 보장할 뿐만 아니라 결과적으로 과도응답 성능을 향상시킬 수 있게 되었다. 몇가지 예제를 대상으로 시뮬레이션을 수행하고 그 결과를 분석함으로써 비선형 시변 시스템을 제어할 경우 본 논문에서 전개된 새로운 적응제어 구조의 타당성을 확인하였다.

Due to the nonlinearity and complexity of the three-phase photovoltaic inverter, we propose an intelligent control based on fuzzy logic and the classical proportional-integral-derivative. The feedback linearization method is applied to cancel the nonlinearities, and transform the dynamic system into a simple and linear subsystem. The system is transformed from abc frame to dq0 synchronous frame, to simplify the state feedback linearization law, and make the close-loop dynamics in the equivalent linear model. The controls improve the dynamic response, efficiency and stability of the three-phase photovoltaic grid system, under variable temperature, solar intensity, and load. The intelligent control of the nonlinear characteristic of the photovoltaic automatically varies the coefficients $K_p$, $K_i$, and $K_d$ under variable temperature and irradiation, and eliminates the oscillation. The simulation results show the advantages of the proposed intelligent control in terms of the correctness, stability, and maintenance of its response, which from many aspects is better than that of the PID controller.

In this paper, each parameter was identified by the gradient descent method to overcome difficulty deciding fuzzy rules of FLC for the unknown process and the type of membership Junctions. Usually PID or optimal control theories have been mostly usee in control field so far. However, optimal control requires much time for calculation because of adaptation for disturbance and nonlinearity. And intricate technique such as MRAS which can be realized only by an expert are limited to be used in the systems requiring rapid and precise response because of comparatively longer calculating time and complicateness. Gradient descent method is a method to find Z minimizing a function about a certain vector Z. And required output of FLC is gained using gradient approaching method in order to adapt control rule parameters of FLC. Simulation proved validation of this algorithm.

This paper describes the mathematical modeling, control algorithm, system design, hardware implementation and experimental test of a Manta-type Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (MUUV). The vehicle has one thruster for longitudinal propulsion, one rudder for heading angle control and two elevators for depth control. It is equipped with a pressure sensor for measuring water depth and Doppler Velocity Log for measuring position and angle. The vehicle is controlled by an on-board PC, which runs with the Windows XP operating system. The dynamic model of 6DOF is derived including the hydrodynamic forces and moments acting on the vehicle, while the hydrodynamic coefficients related to the forces and moments are obtained from experiments or estimated numerically. We also utilized the values obtained from PMM (Planar Motion Mechanism) tests found in the previous publications for numerical simulations. Various controllers such as PID, Sliding mode, Fuzzy and $H{\infty}$ are designed for depth and heading angle control in order to compare the performance of each controller based on simulation. In addition, experimental tests are carried out in a towing tank for depth keeping and heading angle tracking.

In this paper, an algorithm to classify the 4 motions of arm and a control system to position control the prosthesis are studied. To classify the 4 motions, we use flex sensors which is electrical resistance type sensor that can measure warp of muscle. The flex sensors are attached to the biceps brchii muscle and coracobrachialis muscle and the sensor signals are passed the sensing system. 4 motion of the forearm - flexion and extension, the pronation and supination are classified from this. Also position of forearm is measured from the classified signals. Finally, A two D.O.F prosthesis arm with RC servo-motor is designed to verify the validity of the algorithm. At this time, fuzzy controller is used to reduce the position error by rotary inertia and noise. From the experiment, the position error had occurred within about 5 degree.

In this paper, a muscle motion sensing system and an artificial arm control system are studied. The artificial arm is for the people who lost one's forearm. The muscle motion sensing system detect the intention of motion from the upper arm's muscle. In sensing system we use flex sensors which is electrical resistance type sensor. The sensor is attached on the biceps brachii muscle and coracobrachialis muscle of the upper arm. We propose an algorithm to classify the one's intention of motions from the sensor signal. Using this algorithm, we extract the 4 motions which are flexion and extension of the forearm, pronation and supination of the arm. To verify the validity of the proposed algorithms we made experiments with two d.o.f. artificial arm. To reduce the control errors of the artificial arm we also proposed a fuzzy PID control algorithm which based on the errors and error rate.
