This paper deals with the modelling, simulation-based controller design and path planning
of a four rotor helicopter known as a quadrotor. All the drags, aerodynamic, coriolis and …

Fuzzy PID controllers have been developed and applied to many fields for over a period of
30years. However, there is no systematic method to design membership functions (MFs) for …

This paper deals with the high performance force control of hydraulic load simulator. Many
previous works for hydraulic force control are based on their linearization equations, but …

Background: Proportional-integral-differential (PID) controller is widely used in the
engineering field because of its simple structure, high control accuracy, and easy operation …

In the present study, a desired reference trajectory was autonomously tracked by means of a
quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle with a self-tuning fuzzy proportional integral derivative …

The aim of this research is to develop an innovative approach for electric power conversion
of the vast ocean wave energy. A floating-buoy wave energy converter (WEC) using …

High performance robust force control of hydraulic load simulator with constant but unknown
hydraulic parameters is considered. In contrast to the linear control based on hydraulic …

Vibration suppression is considered as a key research field in civil engineering to ensure the
safety and comfort of their occupants and users of mechanical structures. To reduce the …

DC motors are used indispensably in industrial applications because they provide such
advantages as small size, high speed, low construction cost, and safe operation. A major …

Recently, electro-hydraulic actuators (EHAs) have shown significant advantages over
conventionally valve-controlled actuators. EHAs have a wide range of applications where …
