Development of Electronics, Software, and Graphical User Control Interface for a Wall-climbing Robot using MATLAB

The objective for this project is to investigate various electrical and software means of control to support and advance the development of a novel vacuum adhesion system for a wall-climbing robot. The design and implementation of custom electronics and a wirelessly controlled real-time software system used to define and support the functionalities of these electronics is discussed. The testing and evaluation of the overall system performance and the performance of the several different subsystems developed, while working both individually and cooperatively within the system, is also demonstrated.

Use of the Genetic Algorithm-based Fuzzy Logic Controller for Load-Frequency Control in a Two Area Interconnected Power System using MATLAB

The use of renewable energy resources has created some problems for power systems. One of the most important of these is load frequency control (LFC). In this study, in order to solve the LFC problem, modern control methods were applied to a two area multi source interconnected power system. A photovoltaic solar power plant (PV-SPP) was also connected, in order to identify the harmful effects on the frequency of the system. A new Genetic-based Fuzzy Logic (GA-FL) controller was designed to control the frequency of the system. For comparison, conventional proportional-integral-derivative (PID), fuzzy logic (FL), and Genetic Algorithm (GA)-PID controllers were also designed. The new control method exhibited a better performance than the conventional and other modern control methods, because of the low overshoot and short settling time. All simulations were realized with the Matlab-Simulink program.

Real Time MATLAB Interface for Speed Control of Induction Motor Drive using dsPIC 30F4011 using MATLAB

This paper presents design and implementation of Real time MATLAB Interface for speed control of induction motor drive using dsPIC 30F4011. In recent years, the field oriented control of induction motor drive is widely used in high performance drive system. It is due to its unique characteristics like high efficiency, good power factor and extremely rugged. This scheme leads to be able to adjust the speed of the motor by control the frequency and amplitude of the stator voltage, the ratio of stator voltage to frequency should be kept constant.

Decentralized Nonlinear Control for Power Systems using Normal Forms and Detailed Models using MATLAB

This paper proposes a decentralized method for nonlinear control of oscillatory dynamics in power systems. The method is applicable for ensuring both transient stability as well as small-signal stability. The method uses an optimal control law which has been derived in the general framework of nonlinear control using normal forms.

Indoor Navigation Using Accelerometer and Magnetometer using MATLAB

This project will create a navigation system based on dead reckoning using an accelerometer and a magnetometer. There have previously been several studies made on navigation with accelerometers, magnetometers (electronic compass) and gyros. With these three components it is possible to do positioning and different kinds of movement analyses.
