In this paper, an identification of asynchronous machine parameters by a recursive least-squares method with forgetting factor is presented. The authors perform an identification procedure based on stator voltage and current measurements. The authors use band-pass filters to stabilize the identification algorithm. For different time sampling, they have obtained the parameters of a 1.5 kW/4.4 A/380 V asynchronous machine. The obtained performances show that this procedure can be used for an on-line identification in the indirect vector control of the asynchronous machine.<>

Laminated windshield bending furnaces have always been controlled manually. Previously, several attempts of automatic control have been tried unsuccessfully. This is essentially due to the fact that this kind of plants is a strongly coupled multivariable system, with nonlinearities and a large time delay. An other serious problem of the furnace to be controlled is the fact that it produces successively and periodically different types of windshields. So the plant is a time-varying system with periodic coefficients and disturbances. In this paper, an adequate combination of modern automatic control techniques, such as predictive control, the internal model of Morari and Smith predictor, have been used to obtain an original and efficient controller scheme for periodic plants. It has been tested on a real plant and has given satisfaction. An increase of the bending precision from 30% to 100% relatively to the manual control has been obtained.<>

The paper presents the implementation and laboratory testing of a novel fuzzy logic controller (FLC) for an induction generator-electric utility DC link interface scheme. The purpose of the FLC controller is to maximize the wind energy utilization to the electric utility grid. The dynamic performance of the proposed controller is demonstrated, experimentally using a digital computer as the fuzzy logic controller and a prototype laboratory wind energy DC link current source interface scheme.<>

This paper considers the design of a decentralized adaptive controller for a water distribution system. This system consists of a 40-kilometer long canal connected to three secondary canals and four main reservoirs supplied by a 7 m/sup 3/ s/sup -1/ river (the Bourne river). More than 20 pumping stations are distributed along the canals, bringing water to the agricultural plain of Valence (South-East of France). The system is currently manually operated through flow control gates. The author's medium-term objective is to automatically operate this system and to improve water distribution efficiency and safety. In terms of control the primary goal is to satisfy the water demand at each pumping station, while guaranteeing a minimum water level, overflow avoidance and minimum wastes of water, in each section and reservoir of the system. The author's approach is divided into two main stages. An on-line identification procedure based both on a multi-input multi-output parametrized model and Kalman filtering. A state-space predictive control scheme using a Kalman state estimator defined on the basis of the on-line identified model. The author shows how this control scheme can be decentralized in case of large-scale water distribution systems, such as the author's process.<>

The scanning tunnelling microscope (STM) can be used either for qualitative microscopy or for lithography. Furthermore, this microscope is a high precision instrument sensitive to disturbances originating from sound waves, vibrations and temperature variations. The quality of mechanical design is paramount for the scanning tunnelling microscopy technology. It is however not only the quality of mechanical design which defines the STM's operational reliability, it is also the quality of the STM's control system, as practical experience indicates. In this paper, attention is focused on improving the STM's control system.<>

This paper presents a compact, efficient algebraic description for a piecewise linear system and describes a method whereby a standard commercial graphical tool (SIMULINK) used for building and simulating systems can be exploited to generate the piecewise linear algebraic system description in a simple and quick manner.<>

A neural-net-based model-free self-tuning controller for systems with unknown models or some modeling complexity is proposed in this paper. To enhance the on-line self-learning and adaptive abilities, an attenuating excitation signal is introduced to excite all modes of the systems and to produce the error signal needed for self-learning process. To realize the self-organized learning and control, a function evaluating the control effect is introduced to decide whether the on-line operational data can be chosen as the learning samples to train the controller, and how to train. The experiment results for the temperature control problem of some resistance furnaces show the effectiveness of the method.<>

This paper describes how a neural network, structured as a multi layer perceptron, is trained to predict, simulate and control a non-linear process. The identified model is the well-known known innovation state space model, and the identification is based only on input/output measurements, so in fact the extended Kalman filter problem is solved. The training method is the recursive prediction error method using a Gauss-Newton search direction, known from linear system identification theory. Finally, the model and training methods are tested on a noisy, strongly non-linear, dynamic process, showing excellent results for the trained net to act as an actual system identifier, predictor and simulator. Further, the trained net allows actual on-line extraction of the parameter matrices of the model giving a basis for better control of the non-linear process.<>
