Abstract

This paper gives a look on producing energy using wind turbines and imposing robust Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technique to operate around an optimal rotational speed. A mechanical speed control based on PI controller is presented in order to extract the maximum power and optimizing the conversion efficiency of wind's kinetic energy into electric energy. A doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) is utilized because it is preferable for applications in wind energy systems referring to the capability to regulate the output voltage and improve the stability of the grid. Its operational characteristics and the regulating procedures such as Indirect Vector Control (IVC) and other sophisticated strategies for instance the ANFIS controller enhance operating flexibility and optimum performance under diverse conditions. This has attributed the split to the improved ANFIS in that it includes the artificial neural networks besides the fuzzy logic since they improve on learning as well as parameter fine tuning. Some of them are working with a comparatively fewer number of data sets; and therefore, it can be useful in classification, modeling and control. This configuration enables to regulate the generator's magnetic flux, torque, and reactive power, adjusting to changes inside wind velocity and disruptions within the grid. The performance of the proposed MPPT-IIVC method is examined by way of simulations in Matlab/Simulink. The simulations concerned a dynamic model incorporating the wind turbine, the DFIG, and the electric grid. The results show that the proposed technique can incredibly enhance the wind energy, maintain precise regulation over speed, and effectively adjust and regulate grid voltage and frequency. The performance of the proposed ANFIS controller is compared with a PI controller and discovered that ANFIS enhances the robustness, precision, dynamic response, total harmonic distortion THD (%) of the injected current into the grid, the reference tracking ability and Overshoot (%).

Abstract

These days, one of the most used layouts in the wind power industry is a variable-speed doubly-fed induction wind generator (DFIWG). For providing active power (P) and reactive power (Q) control during grid failures, this research examines the DFIWG. The system's transient behavior is examined under normal and abnormal circumstances. Through control of rotor side (RSC) and grid side (GSC) converters, Q assistance for the grid, and power converter stress reduction, the suggested control approach achieves system stability while enabling DFIWG to operate smoothly during grid failures. The DFIWG is exposed to three- and two-phase faults to analyze the machine's performance. The crowbar and STATCOM tools are implemented to enhance the system performance under faults and compared with the base case. The implemented tools successfully suppress rotor and stator overcurrent, over voltage at the DC link (DCL), and power oscillations, as well as supporting the grid voltage understudied cases. The obtained results prove that both STATCOM and crowbar not only enhance the system's effectiveness and performance but also enable the system to achieve the fault ride-through capacity (FRTC). MATLAB/SIMULINK 2017b is used for time-domain computer simulations.

Abstract

One of the most difficult systems to control is the ball and beam (BnB) system due to its under-actuation, instability, and nonlinearity. To address these challenges, this paper presents an application of using the nonlinear synergetic control (SC) algorithm for position tracking control of the BnB system. A swarm optimization method based on sea lion optimization (SLO) has also been used to achieve an optimum dynamic performance by adjusting the suggested controller’s parameter. The Integral Time of Absolute Errors (ITAE) is employed by the SLO as an objective function to adjust the design parameters of the suggested SC. Using MATLAB software, a comparison has been made between the SC controller and the classical state feedback controller (SFC) to test the effectiveness of the suggested control algorithm. The findings illustrate that the suggested SC offers better transient response in terms of reducing the settling time and the overshoot than SFC. The effect of the external disturbance has also been examined. It has been found that SC provides more robustness performance than SFC.

Abstract

This paper outlines the design and development of an advanced robotic system that integrates hardware implementation with theoretical simulation to address the need for versatile and user-friendly robotic solutions in various environments. Addressing the issue of limited adaptability in existing robotic systems, we propose a wireless, voice and gesture-controlled robot car with an integrated robotic arm capable of performing complex tasks such as line following, obstacle avoidance, object manipulation, and autonomous navigation over one-kilometer range. To improve operational efficiency and user involvement, this paper designs a multifunctional robotic platform that integrates user-friendly control interfaces with inexpensive, state-of-the-art sensor technologies. To achieve this, we integrate a variety of sensors, including ultrasonic sensors for precise distance measurement, infrared sensors for object detection and line following, an L298 motor driver for controlling geared motors, servo motors for controlling robotic arms, a flex sensor for claw control, and an mpu6050 accelerometer for gesture recognition. The system also uses a custom-made Bluetooth app for remote control, nRF24L01+ for long-range wireless control, and Arduino Mega and Nano for processing and control functions. The results demonstrate the robot functions well in dynamic conditions, and it can be used in hospitals to assist healthcare professionals, in restaurants for food delivery, and in industrial settings for object manipulation. The system’s design proves robust in real-world scenarios, offering significant improvements in accessibility and operational efficiency. This study aligns with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 3 (Good Health and Well-being), 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure), and 17 (Partnerships for the Goals). The robotic arm's potential application in healthcare settings advances SDG 3, its contribution to industrial productivity advances SDG 9, and collaborations with tech companies to expand and improve the robot's capabilities promote SDG 17.

Abstract

This study focuses on developing an effective control strategy to enhance the dynamics of a wind turbine grid-connected five-phase permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG). To visualize the superior performance of the newly proposed controller, the generator's performance is evaluated with another traditional predictive control scheme: predictive torque control (PTC). However, the vector control principle is applied to the GSC converter. The PTC has limitations such as significant ripple, substantial load commutation, and the inclusion of a weighting element in its cost functions. The proposed predictive methodology aims to overcome limitations, uses a simple cost function, and doesn't require weighting elements to address concerns about stability errors. Comparing the proposed predictive voltage controller (PVC) to the PTC, the findings show that the suggested PVC has many benefits, including faster dynamic response, a simpler control structure, fewer ripples, reduced current harmonics, low computation burdens, and robustness, so the generated power affects system efficiency, leading to improved power quality and reduced switching losses, enhancing power converters efficiency and their switches lifespan, this fact is verified mathematically as the total harmonic distortion (THD) has reduced to 1.346% average percentage for the proposed controller. However, the THD of the PTC is 3.05%. In addition, the study examines the incorporation of pitch angle control (PAC) and maximum power point tracking (MPPT). These controls restrict the consumption of wind energy when the generator speed surpasses its rated speed and optimize the extraction of wind energy during periods of low wind availability. In summary, the proposed PVC-enhanced control system reveals superior performance in dynamic response, control simplicity, current quality, and computational efficiency compared to other methods.

Abstract

Robots are important in preventing hazards. This paper presents the construction and testing of a mobile robot equipped with a sensor-based glove for firefighting and rescue operations. The main idea is based on the ability to control the mobile robot through the movement of a gloved hand. The glove circuit is connected to the robot circuit through Bluetooth. The MPU6050 gyroscope sensor detects the movement of a gloved hand and sends the direction of the hand’s inclination to the microcontroller, which in turn uses this information to direct the mobile robot’ movement in the desired direction. Experiments were conducted to test the mobile robot and its control system. Results showed that the robot prototype works effectively with satisfactory response to the intended direction of robot movement. An increase in safety level and a reduction in firefighting risks were also observed. The proposed robot can assist effectively in rescue operations, creating opportunities for future improvements.

Abstract

Greenhouses play a crucial role in manipulating environmental conditions for optimal plant growth. While existing greenhouses enhance control over environmental factors, manual controls such as watering and humidity regulation often lead to suboptimal production and increased costs. This study proposes the development of a smart greenhouse with an automatic control system using fuzzy logic, specifically fuzzy Sugeno, to regulate watering and lighting based on soil moisture, temperature, and light intensity. The system's architecture involves sensor inputs, microcontroller processing, and the activation of actuators, such as UV lights and water pumps. Fuzzy logic is applied to interpret soil moisture and temperature inputs and determine optimal irrigation durations. The system's functionality is tested and validated through functional testing, Blynk application testing, and fuzzy Sugeno testing. Results indicate the successful implementation of the proposed smart greenhouse system. Functional testing demonstrates accurate sensor readings, including temperature and soil moisture. The Blynk application enables real-time monitoring and control of environmental conditions. Fuzzy Sugeno testing validates the irrigation control system, with an average error rate of 1.3%, affirming the system's alignment with desired specifications. Plant testing in different conditions showcases the effectiveness of the smart greenhouse in supporting plant growth and development.

Abstract

Power quality (PQ) is crucial in today's energy supply networks, where even little voltage fluctuations can have a big impact on how well household appliances and technologies operate. The suggested dynamic voltage regulator (DVR) approach helps to create a new generation power grid that is more dependable and effective. In this study, the honey badger optimizer (HBO) is used to optimize the controllers of the DVR for improving PQ via voltage control. The efficacy of the optimized DVR is further increased by its integration with a microgrid (MG) wind supply. The suggested technique makes use of a low-complexity control approach for voltage regulation to adjust for harmonic distortion, swells, and voltage dips in the addressed system. The technique accomplishes voltage improvement, bus stabilization, energy-efficient utilization, and harmonic distortion reduction by using the DVR in conjunction with an MG wind supply. Various voltage disturbances, such as balanced and unbalanced swell and sag, voltage imbalance, notching, various fault states, and power system harmonic distortion, are taken into consideration to show the approach's usefulness. The findings indicate PQ enhancement, demonstrating that the load voltage roughly matches the nominal value.
