Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLOW-COST STRATEGIES TO SAVE ENERGY IN K-12 SCHOOLSNabil Nassif, Raymond C. Tesiero III, Harmohindar Singh, K. M. FlurchickAdvanced Energy Management Control Systems (EMCS) offer an excellent means of reducing energy consumption in Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems while maintaining and improving indoor environmental conditions. This can be achieved through the use of computational intelligence and optimization with a building automation system and multiple sensors, which can be quite expensive. However, energy awareness and proper scheduling … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 17 Mar 2014 · 8,164 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Hybrid of Fuzzy and Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller for Electro-Hydraulic Position Servo SystemPornjit Pratumsuwan, Siripun Thongchai, Surapun TansriwongProblem statement: While classical PID controllers are sensitive to variations in the system parameters, Fuzzy controllers do not need precise information about the system variables in order to be effective. However, PID controllers are better able to control and minimize the steady state error of the system. To enhance the controller performance, hybridization of these two controller structures comes to … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 10,519 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Self-Tuning Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle, Based On Taguchi MethodM. Santhakumar, T. AsokanProblem statement: Conventional Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers exhibit moderately good performance once the PID gains are properly tuned. However, when the dynamic characteristics of the system are time dependent or the operating conditions of the system vary, it is necessary to retune the gains to obtain desired performance. This situation has renewed the interest of researchers and practitioners in PID control. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,859 accessesView PDFCite
