This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis· seminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) *at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac· tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 20 (thesis year 1975) a total of 10,374 theses titles from 28 Canadian and 239 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. The organization of Volume 20 is identical to that of past years. It consists of theses titles arranged by discipline and by university within each discipline.

This book was released on 2014-08-16 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents selected aspects of non-integer, or fractional order systems, whose analysis, synthesis and applications have increasingly become a real challenge for various research communities, ranging from science to engineering. The spectrum of applications of the fractional order calculus has incredibly expanded, in fact it would be hard to find a science/engineering-related subject area where the fractional calculus had not been incorporated. The content of the fractional calculus is ranged from pure mathematics to engineering implementations and so is the content of this volume. The volume is subdivided into six parts, reflecting particular aspects of the fractional order calculus. The first part contains a single invited paper on a new formulation of fractional-order descriptor observers for fractional-order descriptor continous LTI systems. The second part provides new elements to the mathematical theory of fractional-order systems. In the third part of this volume, a bunch of new results in approximation, modeling and simulations of fractional-order systems is given. The fourth part presents new solutions to some problems in controllability and control of non-integer order systems, in particular fractional PID-like control. The fifth part analyzes the stability of non-integer order systems and some new results are offered in this important respect, in particular for discrete-time systems. The final, sixth part of this volume presents a spectrum of applications of the noninteger order calculus, ranging from bi-fractional filtering, in particular of electromyographic signals, through the thermal diffusion and advection diffusion processes to the SIEMENS platform implementation. This volume's papers were all subjected to stimulating comments and discussions from the active audience of the RRNR'2014, the 6th Conference on Non-integer Order Calculus and Its Applications that was organized by the Department of Electrical, Control and Computer Engineering, Opole University of Technology, Opole, Poland.

Download or read book Intelligent Fractional Order Systems and Control written by Indranil Pan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-08-23 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fractional order calculus is finding increasing interest in the control system community. Hardware realizations of fractional order controllers have sparked off a renewed zeal into the investigations of control system design in the light of fractional calculus. As such many notions of integer order LTI systems are being modified and extended to incorporate these new concepts. Computational Intelligence (CI) techniques have been applied to engineering problems to find solutions to many hitherto intractable conundrums and is a useful tool for dealing with problems of higher computational complexity. This book borders on the interface between CI techniques and fractional calculus, and looks at ways in which fractional order control systems may be designed or enhanced using CI based paradigms. To the best of the author’s knowledge this is the first book of its kind exclusively dedicated to the application of computational intelligence techniques in fractional order systems and control. The book tries to assimilate various existing concepts in this nascent field of fractional order intelligent control and is aimed at researchers and post graduate students working in this field.

Download or read book Modelling of Simplified Dynamical Systems written by Edward Layer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Problems involving synthesis of mathematical models of various physical systems, making use of these models in practice and verifying them qualitatively has - come an especially important area of research since more and more physical - periments are being replaced by computer simulations. Such simulations should make it possible to carry out a comprehensive analysis of the various properties of the system being modelled. Most importantly its dynamic properties can be - dressed in a situation where this would be difficult or even impossible to achieve through a direct physical experiment. To carry out a simulation of a real, phy- cally existing system it is necessary to have its mathematical description; the s- tem being described mathematically by equations, which include certain variables, their derivatives and integrals. If a single independent variable is sufficient in - der to describe the system, then derivatives and integrals with respect to only that variable will appear in the equations. Differentiation of the equation allows the integrals to be eliminated and produces an equation which includes derivatives with respect to only one independent variable i. e. an ordinary differential equation. In practice, most physical systems can be described with sufficient accuracy by linear differential equations with time invariant coefficients. Chapter 2 is devoted to the description of models by such equations, with time as the independent va- able.

Download or read book Application of Model Order Reduction Techniques in PID controller Design written by G. Sugumaran and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2022-01-20 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2012 in the subject Engineering - General, Basics, grade: A, Anna University, language: English, abstract: The analysis and synthesis of higher order models are complicated and are not desirable on economic and computational considerations. To circumvent the difficulties, lower order model formulation techniques are utilized to find a lower dimensional approximant for the original higher order model. The obtained lower order model preserves the characteristics of the original higher order model. Firstly, the linear time invariant single input single output continuous systems are considered to investigate the efficiency of the proposed lower order model formulation approach. For this, the given linear time invariant higher order system represented in the form of transfer function is adopted to get adjunct lower order transfer function and its coefficients are tuned suitably with the help of modified particle swarm optimization along with transient and steady state gain adjustments. The lower order model is formed on an error based criterion. Moreover, the formulated second order models are used to design the continuous PID controllers. Secondly, the single input single output linear time invariant discrete systems are dealt for model order formulation with the help of proposed approach. Discrete PID controllers are designed by employing the proposed formulated lower order model and it retains the desired performance specifications. The lower order models minimize the computational complexities for the process of output stabilization compared with higher order models. The proposed approach is direct and simple in approach for linear time invariant discrete systems. Thirdly, certain procedures are proposed for designing the state feedback controller and state space observer of linear time invariant continuous and discrete systems. Further, the lower order model formulation approach for single input single output systems is extended to multi input multi output linear time invariant continuous and discrete systems. The analysis of the discrete system is carried out directly without applying any linear or bilinear transformations, which reduces computational complexities. This approach guarantees an absolutely stable lower order model if the considered higher order system is stable in nature. The proposed methodology extracts a second order model which has a better approximation compared to models obtained due to other methods. Algorithms are also presented for all the contributions provided in the thesis with illustrations and results.

Download or read book Delay Effects on Stability written by Silviu-Iulian Niculescu and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-07-01 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph is devoted to the effect of delays on the stability properties of dynamical systems. Stability regions with respect to the delay parameters are considered, and some sufficient characterizations are proposed. This monograph addresses general delay problems and offers solutions in some cases. In other cases, approximations of the stability regions can be proposed. The interpretation of delays as uncertainty allows the authors to use the advances in robust control and robust convex optimization to solve or to approximate the solutions of the corresponding problems.
