A Detailed Review on Intelligent and Robust Control Strategies for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles with Emphasis on Navigation, Path Tracking, and Stability Enhancement
Abstract: Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) have gained significant attention due to their applications in ocean exploration, underwater surveillance, environmental monitoring, and offshore industries. The control of AUVs presents various challenges due to the highly dynamic and uncertain underwater environment, nonlinear hydrodynamics, and external disturbances. This review paper explores various control strategies employed for AUVs, including classical control methods such as Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers, modern techniques like Model Predictive Control (MPC), and …

Deploying Fuzzy Logic for Self-Tuning Regulator Design for Motion Control in Modern Electrical Machines
Abstract: Modern electrical machines require sophisticated motion control systems capable of adapting to varying operating conditions, load disturbances, and parameter uncertainties. Traditional self-tuning regulators (STR) based on classical control theory often struggle with nonlinearities, time-varying dynamics, and complex operational environments characteristic of contemporary electric drives. This article presents a comprehensive framework for deploying fuzzy logic in self-tuning regulator design to address these challenges in motion control applications. Fuzzy logic controllers leverage …

DC Motor Control using Deep Reinforcement Learning for Enhanced Robustness and Precision
Abstract: DC motors remain the workhorse of industrial automation and mobile robotics, but achieving simultaneous high-speed transient response and negligible steady-state error under variable load conditions continues to challenge classical Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers. These model-dependent systems often require extensive tuning and struggle to maintain optimal performance when confronted with parametric uncertainties, non-linear friction, or sudden voltage fluctuations. This study presents a novel, model-free control paradigm utilizing Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL)—specifically, a …

LQR-Based Optimal Control of Inverted Pendulum System with State Estimation and Stability Analysis
Abstract: The inverted pendulum on a cart is a canonical benchmark problem in control systems engineering, capturing the essential challenges of stabilizing an inherently unstable, underactuated, and nonlinear plant. Classical Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers, while widely employed in industrial practice, exhibit fundamental performance limitations when applied to such systems, primarily due to their inability to account for multivariable coupling, process noise, and the absence of a systematic optimization framework. This paper presents …

Neural Network Based Fractional Order PID Controller for Harmonic Mitigation of Induction Motor Drive System
Abstract: Torque produced in IM (induction Motor) is collected fundamental torque, however, due to core saturation, air gap irregularity, and winding distribution; stator and rotor slotting harmonics torque are produced. This reduces the quality of the power system, life span, and performance of the motor and the controller device. In this paper, a neural network, based fractional order proportional integral derivative (NNFOPID) controller is designed to compensate the harmonics of the …
