Chaotic-Based Improved Henry Gas Solubility Optimization Algorithm: Application to Electric Motor Control

Abstract

This study presents a novel meta-heuristic optimization method that combines the Henry Gas Solubility Optimization (HGSO) technique with symmetric chaotic systems. By leveraging the randomness of chaotic systems, the parameters of the HGSO algorithm that require random generation are produced through chaotic processes, allowing the algorithm to exhibit chaotic behavior in its pursuit of optimal values. This innovative approach is termed Chaotic Henry Gas Solubility Optimization (CHGSO), with the primary objective of enhancing the performance of the HGSO method. The randomness of the data obtained from chaotic systems was validated using NIST-800-22 tests. The CHGSO method was applied to both 47 benchmark functions and the optimization of parameters for a PID controller utilized in the speed control of a DC motor. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method, it was compared with several widely recognized algorithms in the literature, including PSO, WOA, GWO, EA, SA, and the original HGSO algorithm. The results demonstrate that the proposed method achieved the best performance in 43 of the benchmark functions, outperforming the other algorithms. In the context of controller design, the PID parameters were optimized using the error-based ITSE objective function. According to the controller responses, the proposed method has achieved the best results in the simulation studies, with a settling time of 0.035 and a rise time of 0.014 without overshooting, and in the experimental studies, with a settling time of 0.15 and a settling time of 1.4%. When the results are examined, it is observed that it has achieved successful results in the controller design problem.
