A novel adaptive sliding mode controller using neuro-fuzzy network based on adaptive cooperative particle sub-swarm optimization (ACPSSO) is presented in this article for nonlinear systems control. The proposed scheme combines the advantages of adaptive control, neuro-fuzzy control, and sliding...

We address the problem of control and synchronization of a class of uncertain chaotic systems. Our approach follows techniques of sliding mode control and adaptive estimation law. The adaptive algorithm is constructed based on the sliding mode control to ensure perfect tracking and...

Purpose This paper aims to present an adaptive sliding mode control (ASMC) for tunnel boring machine cutterhead telescopic system with uncertainties to achieve a high-precision trajectory in complex strata. This method could be applied to solve the problems caused by linear and nonlinear model...

This paper treats the design and control of two hybrid source using supercapacitors, fuel cell, with and without batteries on the DC link. A fuel cell, as a slowest dynamic source in these systems (because of its auxiliaries) acts to supply the permanent energy. The supercapacitors, as a high...

Power in wind turbines are traditionally controlled by varying the pitch angle at high wind speeds in region 3 of the wind turbine operation. The pitch angles controllers are normally driven by electrical or hydraulic actuators. The motivation of this research is to design and implement a pitch...

Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) based on Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) connected to the grid is subjected to high transient currents at rotor side and rise in DC-link voltage during voltage sag at stator/grid side. To secure power system operation wind turbines have to meet grid...

This paper presents the results of an investigation into the performance of different controllers in active load control of wind turbine blades equipped with microtabs. A bang–bang (BB) controller, a linear quadratic regulator (LQR) a proportional integral derivative (PID) and a sliding mode...

Regenerative braking provides an effective way of extending the driving range of battery powered electric vehicles (EVs). This paper analyzes the equivalent power circuit and operation principles of an EV using regenerative braking control technology. During the braking period, the switching...

This paper presents a wind-driven induction generator system with a hybrid controller, which combines the advantages of the integral–proportional and the sliding mode controllers. The proposed controller is designed to adjust the turbine speed to extract maximum power from the wind. The...

This paper presents an acceleration slip regulation (ASR) system for four-wheel drive (4WD) electric vehicles, which are driven by the front and rear axles simultaneously. The ASR control strategy includes three control modes: average distribution of inter-axle torque, optimal distribution of...
