A hybrid intelligent control system that combines the theories of fuzzy logic and variable structure systems (VSS) is presented. This control architecture is viewed as a discrete event system (DES) and its properties are studied using the corresponding Petri Net diagram. The equivalence between...

The application of modeling methods suitable for control and simulation of power electronic systems is outlined as a self-contained approach to solve the simulation and control problems of novel structures of power electronics converters. The straightforward non-linear modeling for controller...

The stabilization problem of polytopic differential inclusion (PDI) systems is investigated by using sliding mode control. Sliding surface is designed and sufficient conditions for asymptotic stability of sliding mode dynamics are derived. A novel feedback law is established to make the state of...

In this paper, a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) based controller for single phase PWM boost rectifier is presented. The control is made up of an internal current control loop and external DC-link voltage control loop. The internal control loop allows active shaping of the line current and...

This paper deals with the problem of controlling energy generation systems including fuel cells (FCs) and interleaved boost power converters. The proposed nonlinear adaptive controller is designed using sliding mode control (SMC) technique based on the system nonlinear model. The latter accounts...
