    Variable Structure Controllers for Unstable Processes
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2015-08) Ablay, Gunyaz
    A variable structure control (VSC) method for unstable industrial processes is proposed. The proposed control method is able to provide a highly satisfactory system performance and to tackle with robustness issues of the processes in the presence of uncertainties. An ITAE-based numerical tuning algorithm for acquiring optimal control parameters, and a direct auto-tuning mechanism for the proposed controller are also provided. The performance of the proposed VSC method is illustrated on some unstable process models including a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR), in order to show its effectiveness, validity and feasibility.

    Optimal Location and Sizing of Electric Bus Battery Swapping Station in Microgrid Systems by Considering Revenue Maximization
    (IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2023) Kocer, Mustafa Cagatay; Onen, Ahmet; Jung, Jaesung; Gultekin, Hakan; Albayrak, Sahin
    The radical increase in the popularity of electric vehicles (EVs) has in turn increased the number of associated problems. Long waiting times at charging stations are a major barrier to the widespread adoption of EVs. Therefore, battery swapping stations (BSSs) are an efficient solution that considers short waiting times and healthy recharging cycles for battery systems. Moreover, swapping stations have emerged as a great opportunity not only for EVs, but also for power systems, with regulation services that can be provided to the grid particularly for small networks, such as microgrid (MG) systems. In this study, the optimum location and size that maximize the revenue of a swap station in an MG system are investigated. To the best of our knowledge, this study is first to solve the placing and sizing problem in the MG from the perspective of a BSS. The results indicate that bus 23 is the BSS's optimal location and is crucial for maximizing revenue and addressing issues like the provision of ancillary services in microgrid system. Finally, the swap demand profile of the station serving electric bus public transportation system was obtained using an analytical model based on public transportation data collected in Berlin, Germany.

    On the Lifetime of Compressive Sensing Based Energy Harvesting in Underwater Sensor Networks
    (IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2019-06-15) Erdem, Huseyin Emre; Yildiz, Huseyin Ugur; Gungor, Vehbi Cagri
    Recently, there has been a growing interest in academia and industry on the development of underwater acoustic sensor networks (UASNs) for scientific, commercial, and military purposes. Severe underwater channel conditions and limited battery energy of underwater nodes pose great challenges to prolong UASNs lifetime. Compressive sensing (CS), energy harvesting (EH), and transmission power control (TPC) are three promising solutions to improve UASNs lifetime. This paper aims to quantitatively investigate the joint impact of CS, EH, and TPC methods on the lifetime of UASNs. A novel Mixed Integer Programming framework is developed to maximize the network lifetime by joint consideration of CS, EH, and TPC. The performance results show that the impact of CS on the network lifetime is higher than that of EH when both methods are combined with TPC. Moreover, when all three methods are combined, the network lifetime can be extended up to three times as compared to the case when all three methods are not utilized.

    Large Transformations With Moderate Strains of Tensile Membrane Structures
    (Sage Publications Ltd, 2016-04-28) Beatini, Valentina; Carfagni, Gianni Royer; Royer Carfagni, Gianni
    Using a classical non-linear theory, we analytically investigate possible ways for transforming the shape of a curved elastic membrane while keeping it tensioned and moderately strained. This is a critical issue because, as a rule, membranes must be considerably stretched in order to avoid wrinkling and slackening. If the final configuration is fixed, the membrane can be cut and formed according to the final shape, but this cannot be done if more configurations, considerably distant from one another, have to be achieved. Nevertheless, we propose large transformation movements that can be obtained starting from flat membranes while maintaining their strain as limited. We discuss in detail the paradigmatic example of the hyperbolic-paraboloid-shaped membrane. These opportunities are suitable for applications of transformable architecture because they do not require excessive tensioning, compatible with the strength of materials used for this kind of structures.

    FFRP: Dynamic Firefly Mating Optimization Inspired Energy Efficient Routing Protocol for Internet of Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks
    (IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2020) Faheem, Muhammad; Butt, Rizwan Aslam; Raza, Basit; Alquhayz, Hani; Ashraf, Muhammad Waqar; Raza, Saleem; Bin Ngadi, Md Asri; Ngadi, Md. Asri Bin
    Energy-efficient and reliable data gathering using highly stable links in underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) is challenging because of time and location-dependent communication characteristics of the acoustic channel. In this paper, we propose a novel dynamic firefly mating optimization inspired routing scheme called FFRP for the internet of UWSNs-based events monitoring applications. The proposed FFRP scheme during the events data gathering employs a self-learning based dynamic firefly mating optimization intelligence to find the highly stable and reliable routing paths to route packets around connectivity voids and shadow zones in UWSNs. The proposed scheme during conveying information minimizes the high energy consumption and latency issues by balancing the data traffic load evenly in a large-scale network. In additions, the data transmission over highly stable links between acoustic nodes increases the overall packets delivery ratio and network throughput in UWSNs. Several simulation experiments are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme against the existing schemes through NS2 and AquaSim 2.0 in UWSNs. The experimental outcomes show the better performance of the developed protocol in terms of high packets delivery ratio (PDR) and network throughput (NT) with low latency and energy consumption (EC) compared to existing routing protocols in UWSNs.

    A Generalized PID Controller for High-Order Dynamical Systems
    (Slovak Univ Technology, 2021-04-01) Ablay, Gunyaz
    This paper introduces a generalized PID type controller for controlling high-order dynamical systems. An optimal generalized PID control design method is developed to provide a simplified high-order output feedback control design procedure and tunable response characteristics. The controller design procedure is reduced to the specification of the desired natural frequency and the solution of a polynomial equation. The control method is capable of providing a desired control performance under set-point and disturbance variations. The performance of the proposed control method is implemented on some unstable and nonlinear mechatronic systems to illustrate the robustness, effectiveness and feasibility of the method.
