Research on Pneumatic Control of a Pressurized Self-Elevating Mat for an Offshore Wind Power Installation Platform.

Efficient deep-water offshore wind power installation platforms with a pressurized self-elevating mat are a new type of equipment used for installing offshore wind turbines. However, the unstable internal pressure of the pressurized self-elevating mat can cause serious harm to the platform. This paper studies the pneumatic control system of the self-elevating mat to improve the precision of its pressure control. According to the pneumatic control system structure of the self-elevating mat, the pneumatic model of the self-elevating mat is established, and a conventional PID controller and fuzzy PID controller are designed and established. It can be seen via Simulink simulation that the fuzzy PID controller has a smaller adjustment time and overshoot, but its anti-interference ability is relatively weak. The membership degree and fuzzy rules of the fuzzy PID controller are optimized using a neural network algorithm, and a fuzzy neural network PID controller based on BP neural network optimization is proposed. The simulation results show that the overshoot of the optimized controller is reduced by 9.71% and the stability time is reduced by 68.9% compared with the fuzzy PID. Finally, the experiment verifies that the fuzzy neural network PID controller has a faster response speed and smaller overshoot, which improves the pressure control accuracy and robustness of the self-elevating mat and provides a scientific basis for the engineering applications of the self-elevating mat.

Self-Constructing Fuzzy Neural Fractional-Order Sliding Mode Control of Active Power Filter.

In this article, a fractional-order sliding mode control (FOSMC) scheme is proposed for mitigating harmonic distortions in the power system, whereby a self-constructing recurrent fuzzy neural network (SCRFNN) is used to weaken the effect of compound nonlinearity caused by unknown uncertainties and environmental fluctuations. The fractional-order sliding mode controller (SMC) is constructed to maintain the control system to be asymptotically stable and a fractional-order calculus is introduced into an SMC to soften the sliding manifold design and realize chattering reduction. Considering parameter variations existing in the power system model, SCRFNN is adopted to approximate the unknown dynamics, which is able to dynamically update network structure by optimizing the fuzzy division, and a feedback connection is incorporated into the feedforward neural network, which is regarded as a storage unit to enhance the capability of coping with temporal problem. The control scheme combining the FOSMC with the SCRFNN can make the tracking error and its time derivative converge to zero. Experimental studies demonstrate the validity of the designed scheme, and comprehensive comparisons illustrate its superiority in harmonic suppression and high robustness.

Artificial intelligent control of energy management PV system

Renewable energy systems, such as photovoltaic (PV) systems, have become increasingly significant in response to the pressing concerns of climate change and the imperative to mitigate carbon emissions. When static converters are used in solar power systems, they change the current, which uses reactive energy. A proportional-integral controller regulates active and reactive powers, whereas energy storage batteries enhance energy quality by storing current and voltage as they directly affect steady-state error. The utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) is crucial for improving the energy generation of PV systems under various climatic circumstances, as conventional controllers do not effectively optimize the energy output of solar systems. Nevertheless, the performance of PV systems can be influenced by fluctuations in meteorological conditions. This study presents a novel approach for integrating solar PV systems with high input performance through adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems (ANFIS). A fuzzy neural inference-based controller regarding energy generation and consumption aspects was designed and examined. This study examines the importance of artificial intelligence in facilitating continuous power supply to clients using a battery system, hence emphasizing its significance in energy management. Moreover, the findings demonstrated promising outcomes in energy regulation and management.

Research and Design of Improved Wild Horse Optimizer-Optimized Fuzzy Neural Network PID Control Strategy for EC Regulation of Cotton Field Water and Fertilizer Systems

Xinjiang is the largest cotton-producing region in China, but it faces a severe shortage of water resources. According to relevant studies, the cotton yield does not significantly decrease under appropriate limited water conditions. Therefore, this paper proposes a water and fertilizer integrated control system to achieve water and fertilizer conservation in the process of cotton field cultivation. This paper designs a fuzzy neural network Proportional–Integral–Derivative controller based on the improved Wild Horse Optimizer to address the water and fertilizer integrated control system’s time-varying, lag, and non-linear characteristics. The controller precisely controls fertilizer electrical conductivity (EC) by optimizing parameters through an improved Wild Horse Optimizer for the initial weights from the normalization layer to the output layer, the initial center values of membership functions, and the initial base width of membership functions in the fuzzy neural network. The performance of the controller is validated through MATLAB simulation and experimental tests. The results indicate that, compared with conventional PID controllers and fuzzy PID controllers, this controller exhibits excellent control accuracy and robustness, effectively achieving precise fertilization.

Research on Two-Stage Semi-Active ISD Suspension Based on Improved Fuzzy Neural Network PID Control.

To better improve the ride comfort and handling stability of vehicles, a new two-stage ISD semi-active suspension structure is designed, which consists of the three elements, including an adjustable damper, spring, and inerter. Meanwhile, a new semi-active ISD suspension control strategy is proposed based on this structure. Firstly, the fuzzy neural network's initial parameters are optimized using the grey wolf optimization algorithm. Then, the fuzzy neural network with the optimal parameters is adjusted to the PID parameters. Finally, a 1/4 2-degree-of-freedom ISD semi-active suspension model is constructed in Matlab/Simulink, and the dynamics simulation is carried out for the three schemes using PID control, fuzzy neural network PID control, and improved fuzzy neural network PID control, respectively. The results show that compared with adopting PID control and fuzzy neural network PID control strategy, the vehicle body acceleration and tire dynamic loads are significantly reduced after using the grey wolf optimized fuzzy neural network PID control strategy, which shows that the control strategy proposed in this paper can significantly improve the vehicle smoothness and the stability of the handling.

Fuzzy neural network PID control design of camellia fruit vibration picking manipulator

Due to the growth characteristics of the flowers and fruits of camellia in the same period, the vibrating camellia fruit picking machine needs to ensure the constant rotational speed of the vibrating hydraulic motor when the picking mechanism is operating, to achieve a constant vibration frequency, to ensure that the camellia fruit can smoothly fall off the branches through vibration. In contrast, the camellia fruit does not fall off. In this regard, this paper deduced the state space equation of the camellia fruit picking machine’s valve-controlled vibrating hydraulic motor system and designed a fuzzy wavelet neural network PID controller (FWNN PID controller) based on the traditional incremental PID control principle. Then the designed vibration picking manipulator control system was simulated under no-load, 5 s load conditions, and load start conditions with MATLAB/Simulink, a general PID controller and a fuzzy RBF neural network PID controller (FRBFNN PID controller) were used to contrast with it. The results show that the general PID controller has a slow response speed and poor robustness, while fuzzy neural network PID controllers (including FWNN PID controller and FRBFNN PID controller) have a fast response speed and strong robustness, which can well meet the requirements of a specific vibration frequency. Finally, a field test was carried out. The results show that the FWNN PID control is better than the FRBFNN PID control. Furthermore, the FWNN PID controller obviously reduced the drop rate of camellia flowers within 6% while ensuring the picking efficiency above 90%, which can well meet the needs of the camellia fruit picking operation.

First, barrier Lyapunov functions are introduced to handle the full-state constraints. Second, the adaptive fuzzy NN is introduced to handle the unknown system dynamics and a disturbance observer is designed to eliminate the effect of unknown bound disturbance.

Finally, simulation studies are performed to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control method.

Fuzzy Neural Pseudo Control With Prescribed Performance for Waverider Vehicles: A Fragility-Avoidance Approach.

A fuzzy-neural-approximation-based pseudo nonaffine control protocol is proposed for waverider vehicles (WVs), which is capable of guaranteeing tracking errors with desired prescribed performance and rejecting the obstacle of fragility inherent to the traditional prescribed performance control (PPC). The pseudo control is defined to approximate the nonaffine dynamics of WVs, while there is no need of model affinization. Furthermore, fuzzy neural approximators are combined with the adaptive compensation strategy to resist both system uncertainties and external disturbances. Especially, a new type of nonfragile prescribed performance, being able to self-adjust its prescribed funnel, is proposed to remedy the fragility defect associated with the existing PPC. Finally, the realizability of the spurred prescribed performance is proved via stability proof, and the superiority of the addressed design is tested by compared simulations.

Fuzzy Neural Network PID Control Used in Individual Blade Control

In order to further reduce the vibration level of helicopters, the active vibration control technology of helicopters has been extensively studied. Among them, individual blade control (IBC) independently applies high-order harmonics to each blade with an actuator, which can improve the aerodynamic environment of the blade and effectively reduce the vibration load of the hub. The rotor structural dynamics model based on the Hamilton energy variation principle and the medium deformation beam theory were established firstly, and the aerodynamic model based on the dynamic inflow model and the Leishman–Beddoes unsteady aerodynamic model were also established. The structural finite element method and the direct numerical integration method were used to calculate the vibration response of the rotor to determine the vibration load of the hub. After these, the steepest descent-golden section combinatorial optimization algorithm was used to find the optimization parameters of IBC. Based on this, the input parameters of fuzzy neural network PID control were determined, and the rotor hub vibration load control simulation was conducted. Under the effect of IBC, the vibration loads of the hub could be reduced by about 60%. The article gives the best control laws of individual harmonic pitch control and their combinations. These results can theoretically be applied to the design of control law to reduce helicopter vibration loads.

In this article, we propose a concise fuzzy neural control framework for Waverider Vehicles with input constraints, while the spurred prescribed performance can be guaranteed, and the challenging fragility problem associated with the existing prescribed performance control (PPC) is avoided. Unlike the existing control protocols without considering computational costs, in this study, the low-complexity fuzzy neural approximation is combined with simple performance functions, which reduces the complexity burden and improves the practicability. Then, in order to handle the adverse effect of the actuator saturation on the control performance, bounded-input-bounded-state stable systems are developed to stabilize the closed-loop control system based on bounded compensations. Specially, flexible adjustment terms are exploited to modify the developed simple performance functions, while fragility-free prescribed performance is achieved for tracking errors, and moreover the fragility defect of the existing PPC is remedied. Finally, the efficiency and superiority of the design are verified via compared simulations.

As the world grows, the demand for transporting goods is increasing, the number of goods in factories and ports is increasing, to transport all these goods, cranes are indispensable. In fact, currently, crane rigs working in factories and ports operate with low stability, when working or the phenomenon of swaying of the load occurs, leading to inaccurate positioning, loss of safe transportation of goods. To overcome these shortcomings, the paper proposes the design of a neural-fuzzy adaptive controller combined with an LQR controller (ANFIS-LQR) to control the forklift's position in the shortest time to achieve the desired exact position.

Self-Evolving Recurrent Chebyshev Fuzzy Neural Sliding Mode Control for Active Power Filter

A self-evolving recurrent Chebyshev fuzzy neural network (SERCFNN) approximator based on a fractional order sliding mode controller (FOSMC) is developed for an active power filter to suppress harmonic distortions. The self-evolving algorithm, which incorporates the structure learning with parameter learning, is able to dynamically adjust the number of fuzzy rules and the shape of fuzzy partitions. The consequent part of the proposed SERCFNN combines with Chebyshev polynomials to expand the dimensionality of the input. For relaxing the requirement of the parametric and functional certainty, a SERCFNN-based uncertainty approximator is utilized to dynamically approximate the compound unknown function, yielding an approximator-based FOSMC to tolerate extensive uncertainties. The approximator-based control law and parameter updating laws are obtained from the Lyapunov stability theory, which guarantee the designed control system is asymptotically stable. The control algorithm is implemented in a dSPACE-based experimental system to validate its feasibility, and the hardware experimental results confirm its superiority in harmonic compensation regardless of load disturbances.

Gated Recurrent Fuzzy Neural Network Sliding Mode Control of a Micro Gyroscope

This paper proposes a non-singular fast terminal sliding mode control (NFTSMC) method for micro gyroscopes with unknown uncertainty based on gated recurrent fuzzy neural networks (GRFNNs). First, taking advantage of non-singular fast terminal sliding control, a sliding hyperplane is designed with a nonlinear function to ensure that the tracking error of the system converges to zero within a specified finite time. Then, the unknown model parameters of the micro gyroscope are estimated using a GRFNN. Since the GRFNN can adaptively adjust the base width, center vector, gated recurrent unit parameters, and outer gains, it can achieve accurate approximation to unknown models, enhancing the robustness and accuracy. In addition, due to the introduction of gated recurrent units, The GRFNN can effectively utilize the previous data and avoid the problem of gradient disappearance. The comparison of the simulation results with traditional neural sliding mode control shows that the proposed method can achieve better tracking performance and more accurate estimation of unknown models.

An adaptive neural fuzzy virtual inertia control method for VSC-HVDC system

Compared to conventional DC transmission, Voltage source converter based high voltage direct current transmission (VSC-HVDC) has the advantages of independently controllable transmission power, no commutation failure, no reactive power compensation and low harmonic levels. However, VSC-HVDC transmission cannot provide effective frequency support and regulation for the system after grid connection. For this reason, an adaptive neural fuzzy virtual inertia control method is proposed to impose a control strategy on the converter at the receiving end of a VSC-HVDC transmission. The method uses the frequency change rate and the amount of change of frequency as constraints to dynamically adjust the virtual inertia and damping coefficients. It provides larger inertial support when the frequency fluctuation is large and smaller inertial support when the frequency fluctuation is small, thus adapting to different operating conditions. Finally, a hardware-in-the-loop simulation platform is built. The superiority and application prospect of the proposed strategy in frequency stability of the system are verified by comparing the proposed strategy with the traditional virtual control strategy.
