In this paper the development, modeling and high precision robust control of an electro-mechanical continuum robot manipulator is presented. In this paper main controller is a Sliding Mode Controller which modified by modified PD methodology based on the boundary derivative methodology. Parallel fuzzy logic theory is used to compensate the system dynamic uncertainty controller based on sliding mode theory. Sliding mode controller (SMC) is a significant nonlinear controller under condition of partly uncertain dynamic parameters of system. This controller is used to control of highly nonlinear systems especially for continuum robot manipulator, because this controller is robust and stable in presence of partly uncertainties. PD partly switching nonlinear SMC by modified PD boundary derivative method is used to achieve a stable tracking, while the parallel fuzzy-logic optimization added intelligence to the control system through an automatic tuning of the PD modified partly switching sliding mode methodology uncertainties. Adaptive methodology is used to on-line tuning the sliding surface slope and gain updating factor of this methodology. Simulation results demonstrated the validity of the Mamdani parallel fuzzy-optimization control with asymptotic and stable tracking at different position inputs. This compensation demonstrated a well synchronized control signal at different excitation conditions.

Refer to this research, a position modified parallel error-based fuzzy Proportional Derivative (PD) gravity controller is proposed for continuum robot manipulator. The main problem of the pure conventional nonlinear controller was equivalent dynamic formulation in uncertain systems. The main challenge of linear controllers is linearization techniques and the quality of performance. The nonlinear equivalent dynamic problem in uncertain system is solved by applied fuzzy logic theory to modified PD gravity. To estimate the continuum robot manipulator system’s dynamic, proportional plus modified derivative with 7 rules Mamdani inference system is design and applied to modified PD gravity methodology. The proportional coefficient of controller is tuned by new methodology in limitation uncertainties. The results demonstrate that the proposed controller is a partly model-free controllers which works well in certain and partly uncertain system.

In this research, manage the Internal Combustion (IC) engine modeling and a multi-input-multi-output artificial intelligence baseline chattering free sliding mode methodology scheme is developed with guaranteed stability to simultaneously control fuel ratios to desired levels under various air flow disturbances by regulating the mass flow rates of engine PFI and DI injection systems. Modeling of an entire IC engine is a very important and complicated process because engines are nonlinear, multi inputs-multi outputs and time variant. One purpose of accurate modeling is to save development costs of real engines and minimizing the risks of damaging an engine when validating controller designs. Nevertheless, developing a small model, for specific controller design purposes, can be done and then validated on a larger, more complicated model. Analytical dynamic nonlinear modeling of internal combustion engine is carried out using elegant Euler-Lagrange method compromising accuracy and complexity. A baseline estimator with varying parameter gain is designed with guaranteed stability to allow implementation of the proposed state feedback sliding mode methodology into a MATLAB simulation environment, where the sliding mode strategy is implemented into a model engine control module (“software”). To estimate the dynamic model of IC engine fuzzy inference engine is applied to baseline sliding mode methodology. The fuzzy inference baseline sliding methodology performance was compared with a well-tuned baseline multi-loop PID controller through MATLAB simulations and showed improvements, where MATLAB simulations were conducted to validate the feasibility of utilizing the developed controller and state estimator for automotive engines. The proposed tracking method is designed to optimally track the desired FR by minimizing the error between the trapped in-cylinder mass and the product of the desired FR and fuel mass over a given time interval.

Both fuzzy logic and sliding mode can compensate the steady-state error of proportional-derivative (PD) method. This paper presents parallel sliding mode optimization for fuzzy PD management. The asymptotic stability of fuzzy PD management with first-order sliding mode optimization in the parallel structure is proven. For the parallel structure, the finite time convergence with a super-twisting second-order sliding-mode is guaranteed.

In this research, an artificial chattering free adaptive fuzzy modified sliding mode control design and application to continuum robotic manipulator has proposed in order to design high performance nonlinear controller in the presence of uncertainties. Regarding to the positive points in sliding mode controller, fuzzy logic controller and online tuning method, the output improves. Each method by adding to the previous controller has covered negative points. The main target in this research is design of model free estimator on-line sliding mode fuzzy algorithm for continuum robot manipulator to reach an acceptable performance. Continuum robot manipulators are highly nonlinear, and a number of parameters are uncertain, therefore design model free controller by both analytical and empirical paradigms are the main goal. Although classical sliding mode methodology has acceptable performance with known dynamic parameters such as stability and robustness but there are two important disadvantages as below: chattering phenomenon and mathematical nonlinear dynamic equivalent controller part. To solve the chattering fuzzy logic inference applied instead of dead zone function. To solve the equivalent problems in classical sliding mode controller this paper focuses on applied on-line tuning method in classical controller. This algorithm works very well in certain and uncertain environment. The system performance in sliding mode controller is sensitive to the sliding function. Therefore, compute the optimum value of sliding function for a system is the next challenge. This problem has solved by adjusting sliding function of the on-line method continuously in real-time. In this way, the overall system performance has improved with respect to the classical sliding mode controller. This controller solved chattering phenomenon as well as mathematical nonlinear equivalent part by applied modified PID supervisory method in modified fuzzy sliding mode controller and tuning the sliding function.

This paper describes the design and implementation of robust nonlinear sliding mode control strategies for robot manipulators whose dynamic or kinematic models are uncertain. Therefore a fuzzy sliding mode tracking controller for robot manipulators with uncertainty in the kinematic and dynamic models is design and analyzes. The controller is developed based on the unit quaternion representation so that singularities associated with the otherwise commonly used three parameter representations are avoided. Simulation results for a planar application of the continuum or hyper-redundant robot manipulator (CRM) are provided to illustrate the performance of the developed adaptive controller. These manipulators do not have rigid joints, hence, they are difficult to model and this leads to significant challenges in developing high-performance control algorithms. In this research, a joint level controller for continuum robots is described which utilizes a fuzzy methodology component to compensate for dynamic uncertainties.

This paper expands a Multi Input Multi Output (MIMO) fuzzy baseline variable structure control (VSC) which controller coefficient is off-line tuned by gradient descent algorithm. The main goal is to adjust the optimal value for fuel ratio (FR) in motor engine. The fuzzy inference system in proposed methodology is works based on Mamdani-Lyapunov fuzzy inference system (FIS). To reduce dependence on the gain updating factor coefficients of the fuzzy methodology, PID baseline method is introduced. This new method provides an optimal setting for other factors which crated by PID baseline method. The gradient descent methodology is off-line tune all coefficients of baseline fuzzy and variable structure function based on mathematical optimization methodology. The performance of proposed methodology is validated through comparison with fuzzy variable structure methodology (FVSC). Simulation results signify good performance of fuel ratio in presence of different torque load and external disturbance.

Internal combustion (IC) engines are optimized to meet exhaust emission requirements with the best fuel economy. Closed loop combustion control is a key technology that is used to optimize the engine combustion process to achieve this goal. In order to conduct research in the area of closed loop combustion control, a control oriented cycle-to-cycle engine model, containing engine combustion information for each individual engine cycle as a function of engine crank angle, is a necessity. This research aims to design a new methodology to fix the fuel ratio in internal combustion (IC) engine. Baseline method is a linear methodology which can be used for highly nonlinear system’s (e.g., IC engine). To optimize this method, new linear part sliding mode method (NLPSM) is used. This online optimizer can adjust the optimal coefficient to have the best performance.
