The unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) makes use of a fuzzy logic sliding mode controller (FLSMC) in order to enhance the reliability and quality of the distribution power system. This is ...

Academics have developed a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm for PV systems that combines incremental conductance with fuzzy logic control. The inputs used are the sum of conductance and ...

Energy management systems (EMSs) designed for sustainable buildings can also support smart grids by implementing efficient control algorithms. This role is particularly important when integrating ...

Identifying cancer cells in a medical image and altering the trajectory of airplanes at take-off and landing to reduce noise pollution are just two of the goals of new research projects based on the ...

Probably, we all agree that we should not see the world in black and white. One of our most important abilities as human beings, which separates us from machines, is the ability to see events as ...

Innovative design continues to exploit the power of neural and related techniques. Always more popular with Japanese and Pacific Rim consumer-product designers, fuzzy logic did not catch on to the ...
