This work presents the novel maximum power point tracking (MPPT) approach for a small 50 W photovoltaic (PV) system using the dc-dc converter. The method of modeling of PV module is discussed. The firefly (FFY) algorithm and the perturbation and observation (P&O) algorithm are combined to implement MPPT of the PV system connected to battery load. The operating principle is discussed in detail and steady-state analysis of the proposed system is implemented through simulation. The charging profile of the 7.5 Ah VRL battery is also studied using simulation. Furthermore, a low-cost microcontroller-based experimental setup rated at 50 W system connected to battery load was built to implement a hybrid FFY-P&O algorithm. The experimental results are in same as the simulation result. In contrast to the traditional P&O approach, it demonstrated the quick and efficient maximum power point operation triggered by a sudden transition in the environment.

Wireless Networked Control System (WNCS) is made up of an actuator, sensor, and controller that communicates through a wireless network rather than typical point-to-point cable connections. Lower maintenance costs, greater flexibility, and increased safety are the main WNCS advantages, so as a result, it has attracted a lot of researchers. Nevertheless, time delays and packet losses in wireless data transmission are classified as complicated problems, which impair WNCS output accuracy and may influence the overall system stability. Integer-Order PI-PD (PI-PD) and Fractional-Order PI-PD (FOPI-FOPD) controllers are proposed to reduce the impact of the control signal transmission's time delay and improve system performance. Matlab Simulink and True-time simulator are used to simulate the WNCS, and ZigBee protocol is used in transceiving the control signal between the controller and the system. Rotary Inverted Pendulum (RIP) acted as the controller's objective. The Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) technique is utilized to evaluate the best controller parameters. Xbee S2 modules are used to implement the signal transmission process over ZigBee protocol. The FOPI-FOPD controller outperforms the PI-PD controller in the simulation and experimental results in decreasing the influence of time delay on system stability

The structure of the model may either be inferred via an experimental study or just by looking at the input and output data. A novel nonlinear autoregressive with exogenous inputs (NARMAX) method for identifying PEA piezoelectric positioning mechanisms is put forward in this study. The developed model enables accurate prediction of the hysteresis of the PEAs. The accuracy of the model built from the input and output data will be assessed by comparison with a LuGre model. The results of the identification show that the recommended approach is successful and that it has a high degree of identification precision within an absolute error range of one micron. The findings demonstrated the potential of the suggested method for classifying nonlinear PEAs.

To explore the design of a bidirectional isolated converter for usage with battery energy storage systems, the study aims to analyses this investigation. The change resulted in a reduced workload, which is an obvious advantage. We instead think that there will be no effect on the load-carrying capacity due to the increase in production. This research provides an alternating-direct-current renewable energy supply system. Solar, wind, power storage, and a load are included. This is an in-depth discussion of a power conversion converter's control system. Using an energy storage device in addition to the controller is feasible (ESSs). This research resulted in adaptive PI control, which is known for lowering link voltage and faster responses. Using this control system, you can cut down on both transient and static issues and also have a better shot at minimizing defects. MATLAB/Simulink is an application which does simulations. To evaluate the efficacy of an envisioned system, one simulates the systems and compares the results. The results show that the hybrid power supply model proposed may have a substantial effect on the energy supply to the isolated load and can be utilized to build a unique plan for a green data center.

This paper aims to enhance the reliability of power electronic converters fed permanent magnet synchronous machine for electrical powertrain applications. Many faults like open circuit may affect the power converter and quickly lead to a decline in supplied power quality and all the power train components behavior. In this framework, this paper proposes an open circuit fault detection scheme for inverters. First, the dynamic models of the powertrain subsystems were developed. In fact, all the mathematics models of the motor, inverter, power converter, battery and charger are presented. Then, a detection scheme of open-circuit fault in inverter/motor. The control schemes were elaborated based on current analysis method. The diagnosis strategy under discontinuous switch-ing dynamics of the DC/AC inverter is proposed.

Quadcopters are popular UAVs owing to their compact size and maneuverability. Quadcopters are unmanned aircraft guided by remote control, and the demand for them is increasing due to their widespread surveillance, goods delivery, aerial photography, and defense applications. Nonlinear quadcopter operation makes control system implementation very challenging. In this paper, based on artificial intelligence (AI), we train a feedforward neural network (FFNN) controller of a traditional proportional integral derivative (PID). The conventional (PID) is generally tuned to improve the quadcopter control and performance. FFNN can perform offline learning between the inputs and outputs of the controller to learn its behavior. Once the learning is complete, we replace the PID controller with the neural network controller, to get a controller that can maintain system stability,and overcome the limitations of hardware implementation problems caused by the classical PID controller.

A new approach for sizing a hybrid solar-PV-battery and biogas generator for power generation was suggested in this study, based on the variation of energy resources and the load profile. Biogas has enormous potential and numerous economic and social advantages. In this respect, the monthly solar radiation, temperature, and biogas produced from biomass resources were used as model inputs. This study considers the total annualized of the components for the feasibility analysis. HOMER Pro® software-based outcomes in the proposed methodology revealed that the proposed solar biogas hybrid system was sufficient to meet the load requirements of the village (Ain Farba village in the Hodh El Gharbi area located in the northeast of the Mauritania country) with a net present cost over the 25-year lifespan of 61,144 $ and the energy cost was determined to be 0.0473 $/kWh.

In order to discuss the effectiveness of inverter performance, it is essential to concentrate on its losses. Thus, knowing the junction temperature (TJ) value of the inverter switches insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBTs) under different loading conditions allows determining their reliability and designing the right heat sink. The old methods to calculate the TJ are inaccurate, difficult to implement, and require mathematical analysis. So, in this work, a new approach was used to calculate the TJ in a simplified way, using the SIMSCAPE environment in the MATLAB simulation. The IGBT in the SIMSCAPE environment is of an improved design and has a direct thermal port. The TJ estimation is more accurate and it relies only on the thermal impedance model, so we do not need to compute the power losses as was done in previous studies. This functionality is only accessible in more recent versions of MATLAB (2019-2023). With different motor load torques, the IGBT junction temperature is evaluated, and the effect of the selected heat sink on the value of TJ is evaluated when it is under the effect of natural cooling and air-forced cooling.

This paper presents a physics-based mathematical model for a fuel cell hybrid vehicle system. The performance design of fuel cell hybrid electric vehicles (FCHEVs) is an area of interest in transportation applications. FCHEV is a combination of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), with a battery and associated DC/DC and DC/AC converters. Suitable batteries are used in FCHEV acts as a backup system with efficient energy management. The battery is designed for fast power transfer during transient response and constant performance without hydrogen. The power management schemes discussed are consistent with the most common modern power management techniques used in fuel cell vehicle applications, including: the state engine control strategies, rule-based fuzzy logic strategies, classical proportional integral control strategies, frequency fuzzy logic decoupling/control minimization strategies. Therefore, we tested and evaluated the reliability of the model using the MATLAB/Simulink environment, with mixed results.

This journal discusses the implementation and testing of the electrical morphing wing system on light aircraft prototypes, namely technology on the wing to increase the value of aerodynamic efficiency on the wing surface with experimental methods based on knowledge obtained from various literature sources. Using a configuration of eight servo actuators arranged in parallel for the aileron and flap functions as well as setting and control with a six-channel Flysky-FSi6 remote to control the movement of the master and slave aileron actuators as well as the flap function on the morphing wing. The design includes the layout of the actuator, setting commands on the remote and wiring system electrical components. Other aspects such as rib design, mechanism and material selection affect the overall distribution of motion produced by the servo actuator. Through the design of the electrical system morphing wing design on the prototype aircraft, it is proven to be able to support the needs of the morphing wing motion mechanism with the concept of an arrangement of eight actuators in parallel on the rib morphing wing. It is hoped that the concept of the morphing wing can be implemented and further developed so that it can be used on full-scale aircraft.
