Abstract

This paper presents the application of a fuzzy logic controller and Response surface methodology in developing the fracture length as a mechanical property in hydrofracturing technique. In this study, a fuzzy logic controller was used to explore functional relationships between variables to determine the effect of operating parameter, and to achieve optimal process conditions. In addition, the most relevant input variables are identified through analysis of variance using Design expert software (version 8.0) and implemented in the construction of an appropriate fuzzy logic controller model. The experimental results indicate that the combination of response surface methodology and a fuzzy logic controller makes a robust, effective and efficient approach using Matlab / Simulink tool box software.
