Abstract: This paper presents a control scheme for a proportional–integral–derivative (PID) controller combined with an artificial neural network (ANN) for a battery charger bridgeless power factor ...

Abstract: Unmanned aerial vehicles, or UAVs, commonly referred to as quadcopters, have grown in popularity recently because of their accessibility and adaptability. Quadcopters have a wide range of ...

While current control and PWM switching play the most direct role in driving brushless DC motors, the motion profile and ...

Hot glue guns are pretty simple beasts: there’s an on/off switch, a heating element, and a source of current, be it battery or wired. You turn it on, and the heater starts warming up; eventually you ...

Plant engineers and technicians are frequently asked to tune the controller when a control loop’s process value has prolonged or significant excursions from the set point. But in many instances, no ...

Researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have reported important progress in quantum physics and materials ...
