Lyapunov-Stable Adaptive Fractional-Order Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Control for Robust Anti-Lock Braking Under Uncertain Road Adhesion Conditions
Abstract: This paper proposes a Lyapunov-stable Adaptive Fractional-Order Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Logic Controller (FO-IT2FLC) for robust anti-lock braking system (ABS) control under nonlinear vehicle dynamics and uncertain road adhesion conditions. The proposed framework integrates fractional-order error dynamics to capture memory-dependent tire–road interaction, interval Type-2 fuzzy inference to model uncertainty via footprint-of-uncertainty representation, and a Lyapunov-based adaptive learning mechanism for real-time parameter tuning. A rigorous stability proof guarantees boundedness of all closed-loop …

Intelligent IoT Enabled Waste Segregation and Monitoring System
Abstract: One of the significant issues contributing to environmental hazards is the ongoing accumulation of waste. As the global population continues to grow, waste is being discarded in single locations, mixing different types of refuse. In India, the total generated waste is projected to exceed 150,000 Mt/day. Waste is often scattered along roadsides, and the personnel responsible for management do not collect it regularly. This automated waste segregation bin project aims …
