    Food extrusion is a form of extrusion used in food industries. It is a process by which a set of mixed ingredients are forced through an opening in a perforated plate or die with a design specific to the food, and is then cut to a specified size by blades [1]. Summary of the invention principal objects of the present invention are to provide a machine capable of continuously producing food products having an’ extruded filler material of meat or similarity and an extruded outer covering of a moldable food product, such as otak-otak, that completely envelopes the filler material

    A lifebuoy such as figure 1, or we can call as ring buoy, lifering, lifesaver, life donut, life preserver or lifebelt, also known as a "perry buoy", or "kisby ring". The "kisby ring", or sometimes will be call "Kisbie ring", is thought to be named after Thomas Kisbee (1792–1877) who was a British naval officer. Lifebuoy is a lifesaving buoy designed to save someone in the water. It also can provide buoyancy and prevent drowning. To improve aid rescue at night, mostly lifebuoys are fitted with one or more seawater-activated lights

    DC motors are simple and controllable, making them a popular choice for various applications. However, the speed and load characteristics of DC motors can change, making it difficult to control them effectively. This paper proposes an optimum PID controller with fuzzy self-tuning for DC servo motors. The controller uses two steps to adjust the PID gains: The ACS algorithm is employed to identify the optimal PID gains in the first step. A fuzzy logic (FLC) controller is employed in the second stage to further fine-tune the gains. The FLC considers two cost functions: the first function is the sum of the squares of the error between the controlled output and reference input. The second function is a mathematical expression that specifies the required characteristics of the system response. The fuzzy self-tune then uses a set of rules to adjust the PID gains in response to changes in the system. The rules are based on the two cost functions designed to maintain the optimum PID gains for various operating settings. The outcomes of the two functions are: Kp = 5.2381, Ki = 7.0427, and Kd = 0.49468, with rising time = 0.2503, overshoot = 2.5079, and settling time = 10.4824 in the first cost function. The second cost function outcomes are Kp = 8.1381; Ki = 8.6427; and Kd = 0.49468. The FST-PID controller's performance is evaluated using Matlab-Simulink. The proposed controller was tested on a DC servo motor, and the results showed good performance in both steady-state and transient responses. The controller also maintained the optimum PID gains in the event of changes or disturbances. So, the motor's speed can effectively control under a variety of conditions

    Fuzzy Logic Control and PID Controller for Brushless Permanent Magnetic Direct Current Motor: A Comparative Study

    Get PDF
    Electrical machines based on permanent magnet material excitations have been applied in many sectors since they are distinguished by their high torque-to-size ratio and offer high efficiency. Brushless permanent magnetic direct current (BLPMDC) motors are one type of these machines. They are preferable over conventional DC motors. one of the main challengings of the BLPMDC motor drives is the inherited feature of nonlinearity. Therefore, a conventional PID controller would not be an efficient choice for the speed control of such motors. The object of this paper is to design an efficient speed control for the BLPMDC motor. The proposed controller is based on the Fuzzy logic technique. MATLAB/ Simulink has been employed to design and test the drive system. Simulations were carried out for three cases, the first without a controller, the other using conventional control, and the third using expert systems. The results proved the possibility of improving the engine's working performance using the control systems. They also proved that the adoption of expert systems is better than the traditional nonlinear systems. The simulation response shows that the Rise Time(tr) at PID equals 66.306ms, while it equals 19.530ms for the Fuzzy logic controller. Moreover, Overshoot for PID and Fuzzy logic controller are 6.989% and 1.531%, respectively. On the other hand, undershoot is equal to 1.788% and 11.924% for PID and Fuzzy logic controller, respectively

    This paper discussed the modeling and control design of quadcoptermotor. Modeling was performed using the Laplace transformmethod. The quadcopter mathematical model was used as the loadtorque of brushless dc motor to control the stability of altitudevertical take-off motion. Motion stability was influenced by thebody frame mass, propeller speed, and wind disturbance duringhovering. Hence, the quadcopter motion experienced oscillation toreach a steady state. The tuning of Ziegler-Nichols PID and fuzzygain scheduling PID were suggested to overcome the stability ofaltitude vertical take-off motion. The simulation results showed thatfuzzy gain scheduling PID reduced the overshoot 0.1% smaller thanthe Ziegler-Nichols tuning

    This paper profound the various soft computing techniques like fuzzy logic, genetic algorithm, ant colony optimization, particle swarm optimization used in controlling the parameters of PID Controller. Its widespread use and universal acceptability is allocated to its elementary operating algorithm, the relative ease with the controller effects can be adjusted, the broad range of applications where it has truly developed excellent control performances, and the familiarity with which it is deduced among researchers. In spite of its wide spread use, one of its short-comings is that there is no efficient tuning method for PID controller. Given this background, the main objective of this is to develop a tuning methodology that would be universally applicable to a range of well-liked process that occurs in the process control industry

    The objective of the proposed work is to investigate the performance of hybrid self tuned fuzzy proportional integral derivative (STFPID) controller for brushless DC (BLDC) motor drive. The proposed hybrid STFPID controller includes a proportional integral derivative (PID) controller at steady state, a PID type self tuned fuzzy logic (FL) controller (STFLC) at transient state thereby combining the merits of both the controllers. The switching function incorporated in the controller ensures desired control response at various operating conditions by appropriately switching between PID and STFPID based on speed error. A detailed simulation study and performance comparison with other control approaches is performed to highlight the merits of the proposed work.

    Get PDF
    This work presented two fuzzy logic (FL) schemes for speed-controlled brushless DC motors. The first controller is a Type 1 FL controller (T1FLC), whereas the second controller is an interval Type 2 FL controller (IT2FLC). The two proposed controllers were compared in terms of system dynamics and performance. For a fair comparison, the same type and number of membership functions were used for both controllers. The effectiveness of the structures of the two FL controllers was verified through simulation in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment. Simulation result showed that IT2FLC exhibited better performance than T1FLC

    DIFFERENTIAL EVOLUTION FOR OPTIMIZATION OF PID GAIN IN ELECTRICAL DISCHARGE MACHINING CONTROL SYSTEM

    ABSTRACT PID controller of servo control system maintains the gap between Electrode and workpiece in Electrical Dis- charge Machining (EDM). Capability of the controller is significant since machining process is a stochastic phenomenon and physical behaviour of the discharge is unpredictable. Therefore, a Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller using Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm is designed and applied to an EDM servo actuator system in order to find suitable gain parameters. Simulation results verify the capabilities and effectiveness of the DE algorithm to search the best configuration of PID gain to maintain the electrode position.
