This paper investigates a new approach based on the fuzzy-logic controlled methodology that is suitable for analyzing and evaluating large format $LiMn_2O_4$ cell performance via online state-of-health (SOH) estimation for energy storage system (ESS) applications. First of all, the values of the cell resistance R and maximum cell capacity $Q_{max}$ are calculated from three factors such as voltage, current, and time that were measured by discharging/charging sequence. Then, using two values R and $Q_{max}$ previously calculated, present SOH of an arbitrary $LiMn_2O_4$ cell can be estimated using the defined fuzzy-logic inference system. The main advantage of this approach is wide parameters tuning possibility for good correspondence of SOH decay with other accurate estimation method and the possibility to perform suitable online SOH estimation.

Human ability to perceive colors is a very subjective matter. The task of measuring and analyzing appropriate colors from colored images, which matches human sensitivity for perceiving colors, has been a challenge to the research community. In this paper we propose a novel approach, which involves the use of fuzzy logic and reasoning to analyze the RGB color intensities extracted from sensory inputs to understand human sensitivity for various colors. Based on this approach, an intelligent system has been built to predict the subject's personality. The results of experiments conducted with this system are discussed in the paper.

This paper presents an approach to self-tuning PI control of dynamic plants, based on fuzzy logic application. A fuzzy logic composed of linguistic conditional statements is employed by defining the relations of input-output variables of the controller. In the synthesis of a fuzzy logic controller, one of the most difficult problem is the selection of linguistic control rules and parameters. To overcome this difficulty, self-tuning fuzzy PI controller (STFPIC) with a hierarchical structure in which the fuzzy PI controller is assigned as the lower level and the rule modification and parameter adjustment as the higher level. The rules and parameters are generated by the adjustment of membership function through performance index(PE). In this paper, the algorithm for of the controller performance is estimated by means of computer simulation.

In recent years, fuzzy logic has received greater emphasis in the field of power electronics and motion control by virtue of its adaptive capability. A new fuzzy logic based soft-start scheme for induction motor drives close to load detection has been discussed here using microcontroller based thyristorised voltage controller. Rule based soft-start algorithm is fully realised through a software approach only. The soft-start strategy is based on the change of input impedance during starting period. The prototype has been tested under various loading conditions and found to be reliable.

This study proposes a new approach to design and control for autonomous mobile robots. In this paper, we describes a fuzzy logic based visual servoing system for an autonomous mobile robot. An existing system always needs to keep a moving object in overall image. This mes difficult to move the autonomous mobile robot spontaneously. In this paper we first explain an autonomous mobile robot and fuzzy logic system. And then we design a fuzzy logic based visual servoing system. We extract some features of the object from an overall image and then design a fuzzy logic system for controlling the visual servoing system to an exact position. We here introduce a shooting robot that can track an object and hit it. It is illustrated that the proposed system presents a desirable performance by a computer simulation and some experiments.

Preeminent performance of construction industry are unattainable with poor productivity resulting in time and cost over runs. Enhancement in productivity cannot be achieved without identifying and analyzing factors that adversely affect productivity. The objective therefore is to propose a productivity analysis model to quantify the probability of effect of factors influencing productivity by using fuzzy logic incorporated with relative importance index method, for various types of construction projects. To achieve this objective, a questionnaire survey was carried out targeting respondents of Indian construction industry, from four distinct projects, namely, residential, commercial, infrastructure and industrial projects. Based on questionnaire administered, the relative importance and ranks of factors demonstrated using relative importance index method. Probability assessment model to analyze productivity was then developed by using Fuzzy Logic Toolbox of MATLAB. The applicability of the proposed model was tested in seven construction projects and the probability of impact of factors on productivity evaluated. The results of application of model in the construction firms infers that the most contributing factor groups for most of the projects were discerned to be manpower, motivation and time group.

In this paper, we present an approach to automatically tune and adapt PID parameters by using Fuzzy Logic. PID controllers are well-known and found in many industries. Although the potentials of PID controllers, PID controllers are often poorly tuned and their capabilities are not fully used. We can think that the tuning of PID parameters is based on heuristics and some rule of thumbs. This is the reason we come to use Fuzzy Logic. We show that by imbedding heuristics and some rule of thumbs in PID controllers, reperesented by Fuzzy Logic. we can make PID controllers be robust to uncertainties such as load variations and adapt parameter changes.

Fuzzy logic rule-based controller has many desirable advantages, which are simple to implement on the real time and need not the information of structure and dynamic characteristics of the system. Thus, nowadays, the scope of the application of the fuzzy logic controller becomes enlarged. But, if the controlled plant is a time-varying and nonlinear system, it is not easy to construct the fuzzy logic rules which usually need the knowledge of an expert. In this paper, an approach in which the logic control rules can be self-organized using genetic algorithm will be proposed and the effectiveness of the proposed method will be verified by computer simulation of the 2 d.o.f. planar robot manipulator.

This paper aims to design of the neutrosophic fuzzy-PID controller and it has been compared with the conventional fuzzy-PID controller for position tracking control in terms of robustness. In the neutrosophic fuzzy-PID controller, error (e) and change of error (ce) were assessed separately on two fuzzy inference systems (FISs). In this study, the designed method is different from the conventional fuzzy logic controller design, membership degrees of antecedent variables were determined by using the T(true), I(indeterminacy), and F(false) membership functions. These membership functions are grouped on the universe of discourse with the neutrosophic set approach. These methods were tested on three-dimensional (3-D) position-tracking control application of a spherical robot manipulator in the MATLAB Simulink. In all tests, reference trajectory was defined for movements of all axes of the robot manipulator. According to the results of the study, when the moment of inertia of the rotor is changed, less overshoot ratio and less oscillation are obtained in the neutrosophic fuzzy-PID controller. Thus, our suggested method is seen to be more robust than the fuzzy-PID controllers.

This paper describes a methodology for automating the material handling equipment (MHE) evaluation and selection processes by combining knowledge-based rules and fuzzy multi-criteria decision making approach. The methodology is proposed to solve the MHE selection problems under fuzzy environment. At the primary stage, the most appropriate MHE type among the alternatives for each material flow link is searched. Knowledge-based rules are employed to retrieve the alternatives for each material flow link. To consider and compare the alternatives, multiple design factors are considered. These factors include both quantitative and qualitative measures. The qualitative measures are converted to numerical measures using fuzzy logic. The concept of fuzzy logic is applied to evaluation matrices used for the selection of the most suitable MHE through a fuzzy linguistic approach. Thus, this paper demonstrates the potential applicability of fuzzy theory in the MHE applications and provides a systemic guidance in the decision-making process.
