Digital Self-tuning Controllers

Digital Self-tuning Controllers

A complete course in self-tuning control, beginning with a survey of adaptive control and the formulation of adaptive control problems. Modelling and identification are dealt with before passing on to algebraic design methods. Finally, laboratory verification and experimentation will ground your theoretical knowledge in real plant control. Features: a strong emphasis on practical problem solving with control algorithms clearly laid out in easy-to-follow formats or as MATLAB functions suitable for use in project work; specially written MATLAB toolboxes for the presentation of typical control system and plant properties and ready for use in direct control of real or simulated plants; worked examples and tutorial exercises. This book shows graduate students and advanced undergraduates how to overcome the problems of putting the tools of adaptive control theory into practice. The text will also be of interest to engineers wishing to employ ideas of adaptive control in their designs and plant.

Integration of Fuzzy Logic and Chaos Theory

Integration of Fuzzy Logic and Chaos Theory

This book attempts to present some current research progress and results on the interplay of fuzzy logic and chaos theory. More specifically, this book includes a collections of some state-of-the-art surveys, tutorials, and application examples written by some experts working in the interdisciplinary fields overlapping fuzzy logic and chaos theory. The content of the book covers fuzzy definition of chaos, fuzzy modeling and control of chaotic systems using both Mamdani and Takagi-Sugeno models, fuzzy model identification using genetic algorithms and neural network schemes, bifurcation phenomena and self-referencing in fuzzy systems, complex fuzzy systems and their collective behaviours, as well as some applications of combining fuzzy logic and chaotic dynamics, such as fuzzy-chaos hybrid controllers for nonlinear dynamic systems, and fuzzy-model-based chaotic cryptosystems. This book can serve as a handy reference for researchers working in the interdisciplines related, among others, to both fuzzy logic and chaos theory.

Professional ASP.NET MVC 1.0

Professional ASP.NET MVC 1.0

This book begins with you working along as Scott Guthrie builds a complete , , reference application. He begins NerdDinner by using the File->New , menu command within Visual Studio to create a new ASP.NET MVC Application. You’ll then incrementally add functionality and features. Along the way you’ll cover how to create a database, build a model layer with business rule validations, implement listing/details data browsing, provide CRUD (Create, Update, Delete) data form entry support, implement efficient data paging, reuse UI using master pages and partials, secure the application using authentication and authorization, use AJAX to deliver dynamic updates and interactive map support, and implement automated unit testing.,

From there, the bulk of the rest of the book begins with the basic concepts around the model view controller pattern, including the little history and the state of the MVC on the web today. We’ll then go into the ways that MVC is different from ASP.NET Web Forms. We’ll explore the structure of a standard MVC application and see what you get out of the box. Next we dig deep into routing and see the role URLs play in your application. We’ll deep dive into controllers and views and see what role the Ajax plays in your applications. The last third of the book focuses entirely on advanced techniques and extending the framework.
