Integrating processes are frequently encountered in process industries. In this paper, new tuning formulae of the PID controllers for set-point tracking and load disturbance rejection are presented for integrating processes involving time delay. First, the controller parameter sets are tuned using a real-coded genetic algorithm (RCGA) such that performance criterion(IAE, ISE or ITSE) is minimized. Then, tuning rules are addressed using tuned PID parameter sets. tuning model and another RCGA. The performances of the proposed rules are tested on two processes.

A technique for determining the feedback gain of the states feedback controller using a real-coded genetic algorithm(RCGA) is presented. It is concerned with the states error to the performance index of a RCGA. As for assessing the performance of the controller three performance criteria (ISE. IAE and ITAE) are adopted. And designing the controller involves a constrained optimization problem. Therefore a real-coded genetic algorithm incorporating the penalty strategy is used. The performance of the proposed method is demonstrated through a set of simulation about an inverted pendulum system.

The increasing technological demands of today call for complex systems, which in turn involve a series of optimization problems with some equality or inequality constraints. In this paper, we presents a real-coded genetic algorithm(RCGA) as an optimization tool which is implemented by three genetic operators based on real coding representation. Through a lot of simulation works, the optimum settings of its control parameters are obtained on the basis of global off-line robustness for use in off-line applications. Two optimization problems are Presented to illustrate the usefulness of the RCGA. In case of a constrained problem, a penalty strategy is incorporated to transform the constrained problem into an unconstrained problem by penalizing infeasible solutions.

The conventional PID controller has been widely used in many industrial control system because engineers can easily understand how to deal with three parameters of PID controller. The conventional tuning methods, however, have a tendency depend on experience and experiment. In this paper a real-coded genetic algorithm is used to search for the optimal parameters of PID controller for marine diesel engine. Simulation results compared with conventional PID controller tuning methods show the effectiveness and good performance of proposed scheme.

The system parameters of gas turbine engine tend to change remarkably in real operating condition. It means that operators have to consider environment and suitably control fuel flow. The conventional PID controller, however, can not guarantee good control performance in the aspect of system parameter change. This paper, therefore, proposes a scheme for integrating PID control and fuzzy technique to obtain the good performance of gas turbine engine speed control on the whole operating range. The effectiveness of the proposed fuzzy PID controller is verified through computer simulation.

This paper presents a scheme for designing a state observer for container cranes. If the system is completely observable with a given set of outputs, then it is possible to determine the states that are not directly measured. We consider the reduced-order states observer with only trolley position detection and with trolley position and container angle detection. The gain matrix of the each state observer is adjusted using a RCGAs. A set of simulation works is carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

The PID controller type autopilot is applied to support shipmaneuvering for course-keeping and heading control. A control constants of autopilot system should be evaluated by promoting energy loss (fuel consumption) from the view point of economic efficiency of the ship. This paper is obtained control constants of autopilot system from the RCGA pursued the minimum energy loss. In addition, the controller which is designed involves a constrained optimization problem.

The calculation of the optimal trajectory of the stepped top-down robot was made using a genetic algorithm and a computational torque controller. First, the total energy efficiency was minimized using the Red-Cold Generic Algorithm (RCGA) consisting of reproductive, cross, and mutation. The reproducibility condition related to the position assembly of the start and end of the stride and the joints, angles, and angular velocities are linear constraints. Next, the unequal constraint accompanies the condition for preventing the collision of the swing leg at the corner with the outer surface of the stairs, the condition of the knee joint for preventing kinematic peculiarity, and the condition of no moment in safety in the traveling direction. Finally, the angular trajectory of each joint is defined by fourth-order polynomial whose coefficient is to approximate chromosomes. This is to approximate walking. In this study, the energy efficiency of the optimal trajectory was analyzed by computer simulation through a biped robot with seven degrees of freedom composed of seven links.

In this paper, we present the model-based fuzzy controller for container cranes which effectively performs set-point tracking control of trolley and anti-swaying control under system parameter and disturbance changes. The first part of this paper focuses on the development of Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy modeling in a nonlinear container crane system. Parameters of the membership functions are adjusted by a RCGA to have same dynamic characteristics with nonlinear model of a container crane. In the second part, we present a design methodology of the model-based fuzzy controller. Sub-controllers are designed using LQ control theory for each subsystem in fuzzy model and then the proposed controller is performed with the combination of these sub-controllers by fuzzy IF-THEN rules. In the results of simulation, the fuzzy model showed almost similar dynamic characteristics compared to the outputs of the nonlinear container crane model. Also, the model-based fuzzy controller showed not only the fast settling time for the change in parameter and disturbance, but also stable and robust control performances without any steady-state error.
