The document presents an aircraft gas turbine engine (GTE) condition monitoring system that uses fuzzy logic and neural networks. At the preliminary stage of monitoring, when data is limited and uncertain, fuzzy logic and neural networks are used to estimate GTE condition. Fuzzy multiple linear and nonlinear regression models are developed to more adequately model GTE technical condition. Skewness and kurtosis coefficients of the distributions of GTE operational parameters are analyzed, showing their fuzzy character. Fuzzy correlation and regression analyses are also used. The system provides stage-by-stage estimation of engine technical condition. Testing on a new operating engine estimated its temperature condition accurately.
This document proposes a fuzzy logic and neural network-based method for identifying the temperature condition of aircraft gas turbine engines. At early stages of operation when data is limited and uncertain, fuzzy logic and neural networks can be used to create an initial model of the engine's condition. As more normal distribution data is collected over 60-120 measurements, mathematical statistics methods are applied, including analyzing parameters within calculated fuzzy admissible and possible ranges. The method also identifies linear regression models for the engine's initial and actual conditions and compares them to monitor changes using fuzzy correlation and regression analysis. This combined fuzzy-statistical approach allows improved gas turbine engine condition monitoring and diagnostics.

Multi-objective Optimization Scheme for PID-Controlled DC MotorIAES-IJPEDS
DC Motor is the most basic electro-mechanical equipment and well-known for its merit and simplicity. The performance of DC motor is assessed based on several qualities that are most-likely contradictory each other, i.e. settling time and overshoot percentage. Most of controller’s optimization problems are multi-objective in nature since they normally have several conflicting objectives that must be met simultaneously. In this study, the grey relational analysis (GRA) was combined with Taguchi method to search the optimum PID parameter for multi-objective problem. First, a L9 (33) orthogonal array was used to plan out the processing parameters that would affect the DC motor’s speed. Then GRA was applied to overcome the drawback of single quality characteristics in the Taguchi method, and then the optimized PID parameter combination was obtained for multiple quality characteristics from the response table and the response graph from GRA. Signal-to-noise ratio (S/N ratio) calculation and analysis of variance (ANOVA) would be performed to find out the significant factors. Lastly, the reliability and reproducibility of the experiment was verified by confirming a confidence interval (CI) of 95%.

This paper proposes a novel approach for obtaining a closed loop control

A novel auto-tuning method for fractional order PID controllersISA Interchange
Fractional order PID controllers benefit from an increasing amount of interest from the research community due to their proven advantages. The classical tuning approach for these controllers is based on specifying a certain gain crossover frequency, a phase margin and a robustness to gain variations. To tune the fractional order controllers, the modulus, phase and phase slope of the process at the imposed gain crossover frequency are required. Usually these values are obtained from a mathematical model of the process, e.g. a transfer function. In the absence of such model, an auto-tuning method that is able to estimate these values is a valuable alternative. Auto-tuning methods are among the least discussed design methods for fractional order PID controllers. This paper proposes a novel approach for the auto-tuning of fractional order controllers. The method is based on a simple experiment that is able to determine the modulus, phase and phase slope of the process required in the computation of the controller parameters. The proposed design technique is simple and efficient in ensuring the robustness of the closed loop system. Several simulation examples are presented, including the control of processes exhibiting integer and fractional order dynamics.
This document provides an overview of performing steady-state and transient thermal analyses in ANSYS Workbench.

Contact regions between assemblies automatically generate where solid bodies touch, allowing heat transfer normal to the interface. Finite thermal contact conductance can be defined to model temperature drops between parts.
Design of predictive controller for smooth set point tracking for fast dynami...eSAT Journals
Abstract Model Predictive Control is generally used for slow dynamic system. Here efforts are made to implement MPC controller for Fast dynamic System. Speed control of DC motor is taken as fast dynamic system for which the MPC controller would be implemented. To control the speed of the DC motor Generalized Predictive Control (GPC) algorithm is used. In this paper, ARIX model based GPC control is implemented in 2-DOF structure. Transfer function of the DC motor is derived using LABVIEW and system identification tool of MATLAB. From the response of the system, it can be seen that the GPC has improved the performance of the system rather than PID control algorithm from disturbance rejection point of view. Keywords: MPC (Model Predictive Controller), GPC (Generalized Predictive Controller), ARIX Model (Auto Regressive Integrated Exogenous Model).
MODELLING ANALYSIS & DESIGN OF DSP BASED NOVEL SPEED SENSORLESS VECTOR CONTRO...IAEME Publication
Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF), which is an update d version of EKF, is proposed as a state estimator for speed sensorless field oriented contr ol of induction motors. UKF state update computations, different from EKF, are derivative fr ee and they do not involve costly calculation of Jacobian matrices. Moreover, variance of each state is not assumed Gaussian, therefore a more realistic approach is provided by UKF. In order to examine the rotor speed (state V) estimation performance of UKF experimentally under varying spe ed conditions, a trapezoidal speed reference command is embedded into the DSP code. EKF rotor speed estimation successfully tracks the trapezoidal path. It has been observed that the est imated states are quite close to the measured ones. The magnitude of the rotor flux justifies that the estimated dq components of the rotor flux are estimated accurately. A number of simulations were carried out to verify the performance of the speed estimation with UKF. These simulated results are confirmed with the experimental results. While obtaining the experimental results, the real time stator voltages and currents are processed in Matlab with the associated EKF and UKF programs.

Abstract In recent years, a remarkable evolution has been achieved by control systems in different application in Robot and many other Areas. One of the significant applications of developing control systems is the Acceleration control in Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor.

As a result of this, delayed stability problem occurs in Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor while controlling the acceleration or velocity. In this paper, a graphical-based acceleration stabilization technique is proposed to accomplish effective stability in Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor controlling operations. the proposed technique is compared with PID Controller to obtain the best performance specifications such motors with large stability margins with robust control can be effectly used in the field of robot application.

Direct digital control scheme for controlling hybrid dynamic systems using AN...XiaoLaui
An Estimator Based Inverse Dynamics Controller (EBIDC), which utilizes an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based state estimation scheme for nonlinear autonomous hybrid systems which are subjected to state disturbances and measurement noises that are stochastic in nature, is proposed in this paper. A salient feature of the proposed scheme is that it offers better state estimates and hence a better control of non-measurable state variables with a non linear approach in correcting the a priori estimates by avoiding statistical linearization involved in existing approaches based on derivative free estimation methods. Simulation results guarantees significant reduction in Integral Square Error (ISE) and standard deviation (σ) of error, between the controlled variable and set point and control signal computation time when compared with best existing related work based on Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) and Ensembeled Kalman Filter (EnKF). Detailed analysis of the experimental results on real plant under different operating conditions such as servo and regulatory operations, initial condition mismatch, and different types of faults in the system, confirms robustness of proposed approach in these conditions and support the simulation results obtained. The main advantage of the proposed controller is that the control signal computation time is very much less than the selected sampling time of the process, so direct control of the plant is possible with this approach.

Mimo system-order-reduction-using-real-coded-genetic-algorithmCemal Ardil
This document describes a method for reducing the order of multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems using real-coded genetic algorithms. The method aims to minimize the integral square error between the transient responses of the original and reduced order models. It treats both the numerator and denominator parameters of the reduced order model as free parameters to be optimized. A real-coded genetic algorithm is used to search for the parameter values that minimize the error. The method is illustrated with an example and shown to produce results comparable to other established order reduction techniques while guaranteeing stability of the reduced model.

Control operations are performed statically even after the proposal of diverse techniques in the literature. In addition, H∞ controllers are hardly ever utilized to accomplish this. As a result of this, delayed stability problem occurs in Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor while controlling the acceleration or velocity. In this paper, a graphical-based acceleration stabilization technique is proposed to accomplish effective stability in Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor controlling operations. the proposed technique is compared with PID Controller to obtain the best performance specifications such motors with large stability margins with robust control can be effectly used in the field of robot application. Keywords: H∞ Controller, PMSM, Stability, Acceleration, Optimisation.

Direct digital control scheme for controlling hybrid dynamic systems using AN...XiaoLaui
An Estimator Based Inverse Dynamics Controller (EBIDC), which utilizes an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based state estimation scheme for nonlinear autonomous hybrid systems which are subjected to state disturbances and measurement noises that are stochastic in nature, is proposed in this paper. A salient feature of the proposed scheme is that it offers better state estimates and hence a better control of non-measurable state variables with a non linear approach in correcting the a priori estimates by avoiding statistical linearization involved in existing approaches based on derivative free estimation methods. Simulation results guarantees significant reduction in Integral Square Error (ISE) and standard deviation (σ) of error, between the controlled variable and set point and control signal computation time when compared with best existing related work based on Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) and Ensembeled Kalman Filter (EnKF). Detailed analysis of the experimental results on real plant under different operating conditions such as servo and regulatory operations, initial condition mismatch, and different types of faults in the system, confirms robustness of proposed approach in these conditions and support the simulation results obtained. The main advantage of the proposed controller is that the control signal computation time is very much less than the selected sampling time of the process, so direct control of the plant is possible with this approach.

Results show the proposed approach can find global optimal solutions by judiciously modifying population initialization, offspring generation, and selection compared to other algorithms
Alienor method applied to induction machine parameters identification IJECEIAES
This paper presents an identification method to estimate simultaneously the electrical and mechanical induction machine (IM) parameters by using only the measured current and the corresponding phase voltage. This identification method is based on the output error and uses the multidimensional Alienor global optimization method as a minimization technique.

Firstly, the identification method is verified using the simulated data. Secondly, the validation is then confirmed by measured data from one machine. The corresponding computed transient and steady state currents agree well with the measured data. The results obtained show the superiority of the proposed Alienor method versus GA in terms of computing time.
Data-based PID control of flexible joint robot using adaptive safe experiment...journalBEEI
This paper proposes the data-based PID controller of flexible joint robot based on adaptive safe experimentation dynamics (ASED) algorithm. The ASED algorithm is an enhanced version of SED algorithm where the updated tuning variable is modified to adapt to the change of the objective function. By adopting the adaptive term to the updated equation of SED, it is expected that the convergence accuracy can be further improved. The effectiveness of the ASED algorithm is verified to tune the PID controller of flexible joint robot. In this flexible joint control problem, two PID controllers are utilized to control both rotary angle tracking and vibration of flexible joint robot. The performance of the proposed data-based PID controller is assessed in terms of trajectory tracking of angular motion, vibration reduction and statistical analysis of the pre-defined control objective function. The simulation results showed that the data-based PID controller based on ASED is able to produce better control accuracy than the conventional SED based method.

Antenna Azimuth Position Control System using PIDController & State-Feedback ...IJECEIAES
This paper analyzed two controllers with the view to improve the overall control of an antenna azimuth position. Frequency ranges were utilized for the PID controller in the system; while Ziegler-Nichols was used to tune the PID parameter gains. A state feedback controller was formulated from the state-space equation and pole-placements were adopted to ensure the model design complied with the specifications to meet transient response. MATLAB Simulink platform was used for the system simulation. The system response for both the two controllers were analyzed and compared to ascertain the best controller with best azimuth positioning for the antenna. It was observed that state-feedback controller provided the best azimuth positioning control with a little settling time, some value of overshoot and no steady-state error is detected.

Sonic localization-cues-for-classrooms-a-structural-model-proposalCemal Ardil
The document describes a proposed structural model for sonic localization cues in classrooms. It discusses two primary cues for localization - interaural time difference (ITD) and interaural level difference (ILD) created by sounds reaching each ear. While these cues provide azimuth information, they do not provide elevation information. Elevation information is provided by spectral filtering effects of the head, torso and outer ears (pinnae) known as the head related transfer function (HRTF). The proposed structural model aims to produce well-controlled horizontal and vertical localization cues through a signal processing model of the HRTF that mimics how sounds interact with the body. The effectiveness of the model is tested through synthesized spatial audio experiments with human subjects

The methods are illustrated on examples, with Routh approximation providing stability guarantees when applied to stable systems.

This document discusses methods for identifying parameters of dynamic objects described by systems of ordinary differential equations. Specifically, it addresses problems with multiple initial boundary conditions that are not shared across points.

Case B where additional conditions on the parameters are needed in the form of equalities or inequalities, resulting in an optimization problem to select optimal parameter values.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Abstract—In this paper is shown that the probability-statistic
methods application, especially at the early stage of the aviation gas
turbine engine (GTE) technical condition diagnosing, when the flight
information has property of the fuzzy, limitation and uncertainty is
unfounded. Hence is considered the efficiency of application of new
technology Soft Computing at these diagnosing stages with the using
of the Fuzzy Logic and Neural Networks methods. Training with
high accuracy of fuzzy multiple linear and non-linear models (fuzzy
regression equations) which received on the statistical fuzzy data
basis is made. Thus for GTE technical condition more adequate
model making are analysed dynamics of skewness and kurtosis
coefficients' changes. Researches of skewness and kurtosis
coefficients values’ changes show that, distributions of GTE work
parameters have fuzzy character. Hence consideration of fuzzy
skewness and kurtosis coefficients is expedient. Investigation of the
basic characteristics changes’ dynamics of GTE work parameters
allows to draw conclusion on necessity of the Fuzzy Statistical
Analysis at preliminary identification of the engines' technical
condition. Researches of correlation coefficients values’ changes
shows also on their fuzzy character. Therefore for models choice the
application of the Fuzzy Correlation Analysis results is offered. For
checking of models adequacy is considered the Fuzzy Multiple
Correlation Coefficient of Fuzzy Multiple Regression. At the
information sufficiency is offered to use recurrent algorithm of
aviation GTE technical condition identification (Hard Computing
technology is used) on measurements of input and output parameters
of the multiple linear and non-linear generalised models at presence
of noise measured (the new recursive Least Squares Method (LSM)).
The developed GTE condition monitoring system provides stage-bystage estimation of engine technical conditions. As application of the
given technique the estimation of the new operating aviation engine
temperature condition was made.

I. INTRODUCTION
O
NE of the important maintenance requirements of the
modern aviation GTE on condition is the presence of
efficient parametric technical diagnostic system. As it is
known the GTE diagnostic problem of some aircraft’s is
mainly in the fact that onboard systems of the objective
control do not register all engine work parameters. This
circumstance causes additional manual registration of other
parameters of GTE work. Consequently there is the necessity
to create the diagnostic system providing the possibility of
GTE condition monitoring and elaboration of exact
recommendation on the further maintenance of GTE by
registered data either on manual record and onboard recorders.

Currently in the subdivisions of CIS airlines are operated
various automatic diagnostic systems (ASD) of GTE technical
conditions. The essence of ASD method is mainly to form the
flexible ranges for the recorded parameters as the result of
engine operating time and comparison of recorded meaning of
parameters with their point or interval estimations (values).
However, it should be noted that statistic data processing
on the above-mentioned method are conducted by the
preliminary allowance of the recorded parameters meaning
normal distribution. This allowance affects the GTE technical
condition monitoring reliability and causes of the error
decision in the GTE diagnostic and operating process1-3. More
over some identical combination of the various GTE work
parameters’ changes can be caused by different malfunctions.
Finally it complicates the definition of the defect address.
II. FUZZY-NEURAL IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM OF GTE
TEHCHNICAL CONDITION (PRELIMINARY STAGE)
Combined diagnostic method of GTE condition monitoring
based on the evaluation of engine parameters by Soft
Computing methods, mathematical statistic (high order
statistics) and regression analysis is suggested. The method
provides stage-by-stage (3 stages) evaluation of GTE technical
conditions (Fig.1).Experimental investigation conducted by
manual records shows that at the beginning of monitoring
during 40÷60 measurements accumulated values of recorded
parameters of good working order GTE aren’t normal
distribution.
Consequently, on the first stage of diagnostic process (at
the preliminary stage of GTE operation) when initial data is
insufficient and fuzzy, GTE condition is estimated by the Soft
Computing methods - Fuzzy Logic (FL) method and Neural
Networks (NN). In spite of the rough parameters estimations
of GTE conditions the privilege of this stage is the possible
creation of initial image (initial condition) of the engine on the
indefinite information.
As is known one of GTE technical condition estimation
methods, used in the practice, is the exhaust gas temperature
values control and analysis of this values’ changes tendency in
operation. Application of various mathematical models
described by the regression equations for aviation GTE
condition estimation is presented in [4,5].
Let's consider mathematical linear and non-linear models of
aviation GTE temperature condition, described by fuzzy
regression equations:

However, the carried out researches show that of GTE
work parameters’ distributions have unstable character (fuzzy
character). Therefore, it is necessary to note that correct
application of fuzzy correlation-regression approach demands
the analysis of fuzzy characteristics of GTE work parameters
distributions. With this purpose should be carried out fuzzy
analysis of distribution character of GTE work parameters on
the basis of fuzzy values of skewness and kurtosis coefficients
under the following formulas [1-3]

IV. GTE CONDITION MONITORING USING STATISTICAL
ANALYSIS AND KALMAN TYPE FILTER (SECOND STAGE)
The analysis show, that during following 60-120
measurements occurs the approach of individual parameters
values of GTE work to normal distribution. Therefore at the
second stage, on accumulation of the certain information, with
the help of mathematical statistics are estimated GTE
conditions. Here the given and enumerated to the one GTE
work mode and standard atmosphere parameters are controlled
on conformity to their calculated admissible and possible
ranges.
Further by the means of the Least Squares Method (LSM)
there are identified the multiple linear regression models of

GTE conditions changes. These models are made for each
correct subcontrol engine of the fleet at the initial operation
period. In such case on the basis analysis of regression
coefficient’s values (coefficients of influence) of all engine’s
multiple regression models with the help of mathematical
statistics are formed base and admissible range of coefficients
[3,9].
GTE Condition Monitoring using Regression Analysis and
Kalman type Filter (Second Stage) is present in [1].

V. GTE CONDITION MONITORING USING COMPLEX ANALYSIS
OF FIRST AND SECOND STAGE’ RESULTS (THIRD STAGE)
On the third stage (for more than 120 measurements) by the
LSM estimation conducts the detail analysis of GTE
conditions. Essence of this procedures is in making actual
model (multiple linear regression equation) of GTE conditions
and in comparison actual coefficients of influence (regression
coefficients) with their base admissible ranges. The reliability
of diagnostic results on this stage is high and equal to
0.95÷0.99. The influence coefficient's values going out the
mentioned ranges allows make conclusion about the meaning
changes of physical process influence on the concrete GTE
work parameters. The stable going out one or several
coefficient's influences beyond the above-mentioned range
affirms about additional feature of incorrectness and permits to
determine address and possible reason of faults. Thus for
receiving stable (robust) estimations by LSM is used ridgeregression analysis.
With the view of forecasting of GTE conditions the
regression coefficients are approximated by the polynomials
of second and third degree.
As an example on application of the above-mentioned
method changes of GTE (aviation engine D-30KU-154)
conditions has been investigated. At the preliminary stage,
when number of measurements is N ≤ 60 , GTE technical
condition is described by the fuzzy linear regression equation
(1). Identification of fuzzy linear model of GTE is made with
help of NN which structure is given in [1-3]. Thus as the
output parameter of GTE model is accepted the GTE exhaust
gas temperature

On the subsequent stage for each current measurement’s
N > 60 , when observes the normal distribution of the engine
work parameters, GTE temperature condition describes by
linear regression equation (6) which parameters is estimated
by recurrent algorithm [1]

As the result of the carried out researches for the varied
technical condition of the considered engine was revealed
certain dynamics of the correlation and regression coefficients
values changes which is given in [1-3].
The basic characteristics of correlation coefficients [1-3]
show the necessity of fuzzy NN application at the flight
information processing. In that case correct application of this
approach on describing up of the GTE technical condition
changes is possible by fuzzy linear or non-linear model [1,3].
For the third stage was made the following admission of
regression coefficients (influence coefficients of various
parameters) of various parameters on GTE exhaust gas
temperature in linear multiple regression equation (1):
frequency of engine rotation (RPM of low pressure (LP)
compressor)-0.596÷0.622; fuel pressure-1.16÷1.25; fuel flow0.0240÷0.0252; oil pressure-11.75÷12.45; oil temperature1.1÷1.2; vibration of the forward support-3.0÷5.4; vibration of
the back support-1.2÷1.9; atmosphere pressure-112÷128;
atmosphere temperature-(-0.84)÷(-0.64); flight speed (Mach
number)- 57.8÷60.6; flight altitude-0.00456÷0.00496. Within
the limits of the specified admissions of regression
coefficients was carried out approximation of the their
(regression coefficients) current values by the polynomials of
the second and third degree with help LSM and with use cubic
splines [1-3].
VI. CONCLUSIONS
1. The GTE technical condition combined diagnosing
approach is offered, which is based on engine work fuzzy and
non-fuzzy parameters estimation with the help of Soft
Computing methods (Fuzzy Logic and Neural Networks) and
the confluent analysis.
2. It is shown, that application of Soft Computing methods
in recognition GTE technical condition has certain advantages
in comparison with traditional probability-statistical
approaches. First of all, it is connected by that the offered
methods may be used irrespective of the kind of GTE work
parameters distributions. As at the early stage of the engine
work, because of the limited volume of the information, the
kind of distribution of parameters is difficult for establishing.
3. By complex analysis is established, that:
- between fuzzy thermodynamic and mechanical parameters
of GTE work there are certain fuzzy relations, which degree
in operating process and in dependence of fuzzy diagnostic
situation changes’ dynamics increases or decreases,
- for various situations of malfunctions development is
observed different fuzzy dynamics (changes) of connections
(correlation coefficients) between engine work fuzzy
parameters in operating, caused by occurrence or
disappearance of factors influencing GTE technical condition,
- for improvement of accepted decisions accuracy about
GTE technical condition is expedient to apply Fuzzy Statistics
in offered Condition Monitoring System.
The suggested methods make it possible not only to
diagnose and to predict the safe engine runtime. This methods
give the tangible results and can be recommended to practical
application both for automatic engine diagnostic system where
the handle record are used as initial information and for
onboard system of engine work control.
