Contents: The course concerns nonlinear systems, operator's rules, and self-learning controllers.
Fuzzy control appears in consumer products such as washing machines, video cameras, and cars, as well as in industry for controlling for instance cement kilns, underground trains, and robots. Fuzzy control is 'control with rules', and it is based on fuzzy logic which roughly speaking is 'computing with words'. There is a connection to artificial neural networks, and the course explains what neuro-fuzzy data processing is, and it shows some applications.
Objects with partly unknown dynamics may possibly be controlled by adaptive controllers, and the course describes adaptive model following control systems and parametric model identification. The course goes through part of the theory for stability in nonlinear systems. The course demonstrates practical implications of nonlinearities, disturbances, and the choice of test signals. Differences and similarities between various adaptive configurations will be shown. A few topics will be taught through journal articles.
In the last part of the course the participants will test algorithms on an advanced, practically relevant problem in the laboratory (Matlab, Simulink, lab equipment interface).

| Remarks: The course topics are related to courses 50320 and 04342, but there is only little overlap. Those courses are recommended before or after this course if you wish further specialisation. |
