Analysis of the Parameter of the Electro-discharge Texturing

This paper deals with analysis of the electro discharge texturing (EDT) parameter impact to micro-geometry of the cylinder surface. Micro-geometry of the cylinder surface results has significant influence to final quality of rolled metal plate used to different industry. Micro-geometry evaluate is based on measurement of the surface roughness average (Ra) and peak count (Pc). In this paper is evaluated electro discharge texturing parameters and their impact to Ra and Pc. From the measured values follow that value of the texturing current, impulse on-time and impulse off-time most influence to Ra and Pc. In this paper is described design, realization and results of the model for estimation of the texturing current, impulse time and technological pause for Ra or Pc required value

Electronic realization of the fractional-order systems

This article is devoted to the electronic (analogue) realization of the fractional-order systems – controllers or controlled objects whose we earlier used, identified, and analyzed as a mathematical models only ��� namely a fractional-order differential equation, and solved numerically using a method based on the truncated version of the Grunwald - Letnikov formula for fractional derivative. The electronic realization of the fractional derivative is based on the continued fraction expansion of the rational approximation of the fractional differentiator from which we obtained the values of the resistors and capacitors of the electronic circuit. Along with the mathematical description are presented also simulation and measurement results

Combustion Process Modelling and Control

This paper deals with realization of combustion control system on programmable logic controllers. Control system design is based on analysis of the current state of combustion control systems in technological device of raw material processing area. Control system design is composed of two subsystems. First subsystem is represented by software system for measured data processing and for data processing from simulation of the combustion mathematical model. Outputs are parameters for setting of controller algorithms. Second subsystem consists from programme modules. The programme module is presented by specific control algorithm, for example proportional regulation, programmed proportional regulation, proportional regulation with correction on the oxygen in waste gas, and so on. According to the specific combustion control requirements it is possible built-up concrete control system by programme modules. The programme modules were programmed by Automation studio that is used for development, debugging and testing software for B&R controllers

Design of the fractional-order PIλDµ controllers based on the optimization with self-organizing migrating algorithm

Design of fractional-order controllers based on optimization methods is one of the intensively developed trends of the present time. There are several quality control criterions to evaluate the controller performance and to design the controller parameters by optimization. All of these objective functions are almost always multimodal in this case - so they have too complex geometric surface with many local extrema. In this context the choice of the optimization method is very important. In this paper we present a synthesis method for the design of fractional-order PIλDµ controllers based on an intelligent optimization method with so called self-organizing migrating algorithm utilizing the principles of artificial intelligence. Along with the mathematical description we will present also simulation results on illustrative examples to demonstrate the advantages of this method and advantages of the fractional-order PIλDµ controllers in comparison with traditional PID controllers
