Research on the simulation method of a BP neural network PID control for stellar spectrum.

This study investigated the multiple correlations among spectral simulation units based on digital micromirror device (DMD) spectral simulation, which leads to the problem that conventional spectral simulation methods such as PID control exhibit a low fitting accuracy or long fitting time in the spectral simulation of various targets. In this paper, a method of stellar spectrum simulation based on back propagation neural network-based PID (BP-PID) control is proposed to achieve high efficiency and high precision simulation of various spectral targets. The topology of the BP neural network was constructed based on the spectral modulation model of a DMD stellar spectrum simulation system, and the algorithm of the BP-PID control was designed. Finally, an experimental platform was built to verify the performance and spectral simulation accuracy of the BP-PID control algorithm. The results show that the overshoot and response time of the BP-PID control algorithm decreased by 79.01% and 30%, respectively compared with those of the PID control algorithm. The maximum spectral simulation accuracies of 2000K, 7000K, and 12000K color temperature increased by a factor of 2.311, 1.871, and 2.254, respectively, and the standard deviations of the spectral simulation error decreased by 56%, 41%, and 54%, respectively. In the range of 2000-12000K color temperature, the spectral simulation error of the BP-PID control algorithm is better than ±3.495%, and the standard deviation of the spectral simulation error is between 1.8255 and 2.2358. The proposed method can improve the spectral simulation accuracy and simulation efficiency of a star simulator, reduce the magnitude and spectrum calibration errors caused by the differential response, improve the star feature recognition accuracy of the orbiting star sensor, and hence, provide a theoretical and technical basis for the development of high-precision star sensors.

Dual-mode coupling drive system can improve the dynamic performance of electric vehicles through mode switching, and the quality of mode switching directly affects the comfort of drivers and passengers. Mechanical coupling on the left and right sides of the single actuator causes mutual interference during shifting, resulting in prolonged power interruption time and shifting shock. Therefore, this paper analyzes the mutual interference mechanism of single-actuator shifting, designs a new dual actuator, and proposes a staged fuzzy PID controller.

Neural network PID control of spherical permanent magnet based on external magnetic field driving system

Abstract The neural network PID control method of the external magnetic field driving system solves the shortcomings of the traditional control method. The controlled object is a spherical permanent magnet. Other detections or operation equipment can be attached to the sphere. In the process of external magnetic field driving, the model-based controller is prone to large fluctuations when the environmental parameters change, which reduces the control performance. The neural network algorithm has good control ability for the highly nonlinear magnetic levitation driving system. PID control system combined with a neural network algorithm has high stability and strong adaptability in the driving process. The test results show that the response output overshoot is 9.322%, and the system fluctuation is low. Self-tuning and adaptive environment changes of PID controller parameters can be realized by neural network control.

Overview and development of PID control

Proportional integral differential control, referred to as PID control, is one of the earliest developed control methods, which is widely used in industrial process control because of its simple control algorithm, high reliability and good robustness. The classic PID controller is the simplest control system, but the actual control object usually has the characteristics of strong interference, transient uncertainty, nonlinearity, etc, so it is difficult to achieve the ideal control effect with the classic PID controller. In addition, with complex parameter tuning methods, it is often difficult to find an optimal result for the parameters of the classical PID controller. These factors lead to the fact that classical PID control cannot be applied to complex systems and high-performance systems, so people continue to develop PID control methods, introduce new models, and develop fuzzy PID controllers, expert PID controllers, neural network PID controllers, and PID controllers based on genetic algorithms. This paper will review the development history of PID controllers, and introduce fuzzy PID controllers, expert PID controllers, neural network PID controllers, and PID controllers based on genetic algorithms. The research status and future development prospects of these controllers are also prospected.

Adjusting laser power to control the heat generated by nanoparticles at the site of a patient's cells.

Cancer treatment often involves heat therapy, commonly administered alongside chemotherapy and radiation therapy. The authors address the challenges posed by heat treatment methods and introduce effective control techniques. These approaches enable the precise adjustment of laser radiation over time, ensuring the tumour's core temperature attains an acceptable level with a well-defined transient response. In these control strategies, the input is the actual tumour temperature compared to the desired value, while the output governs laser radiation power. Efficient control methods are explored for regulating tumour temperature in the presence of nanoparticles and laser radiation, validated through simulations on a relevant physiological model. Initially, a Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller serves as the foundational compensator. The PID controller parameters are optimised using a combination of trial and error and the Imperialist Competitive Algorithm (ICA). ICA, known for its swift convergence and reduced computational complexity, proves instrumental in parameter determination. Furthermore, an intelligent controller based on an artificial neural network is integrated with the PID controller and compared against alternative methods. Simulation results underscore the efficacy of the combined neural network-PID controller in achieving precise temperature control. This comprehensive study illuminates promising avenues for enhancing heat therapy's effectiveness in cancer treatment.

Study on Fault Diagnosis Technology for Efficient Swarm Control Operation of Unmanned Surface Vehicles

The purpose of this study is to design a Swarm Control algorithm for the effective mission performance of multiple unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) used for marine research purposes at sea. For this purpose, external force information was utilized for the control of multiple USV swarms using a lead–follow-formation technique. At this time, to efficiently control multiple USVs, the LSTM algorithm was used to learn ocean currents. Then, the predicted ocean currents were used to control USVs, and a study was conducted on behavioral-based control to manage USV formation. In this study, a control system model for several USVs, each equipped with two rear thrusters and a front lateral thruster, was designed. The LSTM algorithm was trained using historical ocean current data to predict the velocity of subsequent ocean currents. These predictions were subsequently utilized as system disturbances to adjust the controller’s thrust. To measure ocean currents at sea as each USV moves, velocity, azimuth, and position data (latitude, longitude) from the GPS units mounted on the USVs were utilized to determine the speed and direction of the hull’s movement. Furthermore, the flow rate was measured using a flow rate sensor on a small USV. The movement and position of the USV were regulated using an Artificial Neural Network-PID (ANN-PID) controller. Subsequently, this study involved a comparative analysis between the results obtained from the designed USV model and those simulated, encompassing the behavioral control rules of the USV swarm and the path traced by the actual USV swarm at sea. The effectiveness of the USV mathematical model and behavior control rules were verified. Through a comparison of the movement paths of the swarm USV with and without the disturbance learning algorithm and the ANN-PID control algorithm applied to the designed simulator, we analyzed the position error and maintenance performance of the swarm formation. Subsequently, we compared the application results.

The BP neural network displayed exceptional performance, leading us to implement the PID control algorithm to govern the speed of the grinding motor. Our experimental findings validate the superior efficacy of the BP neural network PID control algorithm in governing the speed of the grinding motor, thereby ensuring a consistent grinding trajectory for optical fibers.

Fuzzy Neural Network PID-Based Constant Deceleration Control for Automated Mine Electric Vehicles Using EMB System.

It is urgent for automated electric transportation vehicles in coal mines to have the ability of self-adaptive tracking target constant deceleration to ensure stable and safe braking effects in long underground roadways. However, the current braking control system of underground electric trackless rubber-tired vehicles (UETRVs) still adopts multi-level constant braking torque control, which cannot achieve target deceleration closed-loop control. To overcome the disadvantages of lower safety and comfort, and the non-precise stopping distance, this article describes the architecture and working principle of constant deceleration braking systems with an electro-mechanical braking actuator. Then, a deceleration closed-loop control algorithm based on fuzzy neural network PID is proposed and simulated in Matlab/Simulink. Finally, an actual brake control unit (BCU) is built and tested in a real industrial field setting. The test illustrates the feasibility of this constant deceleration control algorithm, which can achieve constant decelerations within a very short time and maintain a constant value of -2.5 m/s2 within a deviation of ±0.1 m/s2, compared with the deviation of 0.11 m/s2 of fuzzy PID and the deviation of 0.13 m/s2 of classic PID. This BCU can provide electric and automated mine vehicles with active and smooth deceleration performance, which improves the level of electrification and automation for mine transport machinery.

Modeling Gas Compressor Station Operation to Minimize Fuel Costs for Surge Zone Protection

Gas transportation through the pipeline network requires high pressure; otherwise, movement will be impossible. Due to friction with the walls of the pipes, the gas loses both speed and pressure. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the pressure in the main pipeline, which can extend for thousands of kilometers. For this purpose, compressor stations are located along the main network, facilitating the gas transport process by raising it to the required pressure. Compressor stations mainly consume the transported gas, with approximately 5% expended on gas compression. This article presents a study on the fuel cost for compressor stations, using mathematical models to optimize the operation of gas compressor units. The objective is to minimize gas consumption as a fuel and provide an optimization method with control over blower revolutions and valve installations to ensure safe transportation. Mathematical modeling of the described process detected the technically unjustified fuel gas consumption during the operation of gas compressor units at a specific compressor station under consideration. The paper proposes a method for minimizing costs, which can serve as the basis for providing recommendations to engineers-dispatchers. Compressor stations of the type under study lack measuring instruments for mass flow; therefore, the methods such as PID controllers, MPC, or neural networks are not applicable here.

Optimization of the Semi-Active-Suspension Control of BP Neural Network PID Based on the Sparrow Search Algorithm.

Electric vehicles with hub motors have integrated the motor into the wheel, which increase the unsprung mass of the vehicle, and intensifies the vibration of the underspring components. The motor excitation during driving also intensifies the wheel vibration. The coupling effect between the two makes the performance of electric vehicles deteriorate. The article employed a disc-type permanent-magnet motor as the hub motor, taking into consideration the increase in sprung mass caused by the hub motor and the adverse effects of vertical vibration from motor excitation. Based on random road-surface excitation, and considering the secondary excitation caused by wheel motor drive and vehicle-road coupling, a coupled-dynamics model of a semi-active-suspension vehicle-road system for vertical vehicle motion is investigated under multiple excitations. Using body acceleration, suspension deflection, and dynamic tire load as evaluation indicators, a BP neural network PID controller based on the sparrow search algorithm optimization is proposed for the semi-active-suspension system. Compared with PID control and particle swarm optimization (PSO-BPNN-PID), the research findings indicate that the optimized semi-active suspension significantly improves the ride comfort of hub-motor electric vehicles, and meets the requirements for control performance under different vehicle driving conditions.
