Fuzzy Control: Synthesis and Analysis

Fuzzy Control Synthesis and Analysis Edited by Shehu S. Farinwata Ford Motor Company, Research Laboratory, Dearborn, Michigan, USA Dimitar Filev Ford Motor Company, AMTDC, Redford, Michigan, USA Reza Langari Texas A & M University, College Station, Texas, USA Fuzzy techniques are used to cope with imprecision in the basic elements of a process under control. Written by an international team of researchers this edited volume covers the modeling, analysis and synthesis of fuzzy control systems. Features include:
—Comprehensive coverage of fuzzy dynamical systems, robustness, stability and sensitivity — giving the reader a good grasp of the fundamentals of fuzzy control
—Focus on the analytical structures of new fuzzy modeling approaches based on the Takagi-Sugeno-Kang (TSK) or Takagi-Sugeno (TS) model
—Applications of fuzzy control to aircraft systems, rocket engines and automotive engines
—Problems and examples illustrating how fuzzy approaches may be applied to the modeling, analysis and synthesis of closed-loop systems Design and control engineers will value the advanced control techniques and new design and analysis tools presented. Postgraduates studying fuzzy control will find this book a useful reference on synthesis, systems analysis and advanced nonlinear control methods.

Scientists from academic and industrial laboratories in many countries explain to design and control engineers the modeling, analysis, and synthesis of the fuzzy control systems that are used to cope with imprecision in the basic elements of the process being controlled. Their topics include information granularity in analyzing and designing fuzzy controllers, adaptive and learning schemes, an approach to analyzing robust stability, observer-based controller synthesis for model-based fuzzy systems through linear matrix inequalities, and fizzy life-extending control of mechanical systems.
