This paper proposes advanced intelligent control strategies for a Distributed Static Compensator (DSTATCOM) integrated with a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG)-based Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) and Battery Storage System (BSS). The proposed schemes include (1) a hybrid fuzzy-sliding mode control (HFSMC), (2) an artificial neural network-based PI controller (ANN-PI), and (3) a Butterfly Generator-based particle swarm optimization PI controller (BG-PSO-PI) for Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) and real-time voltage/current compensation. Simulation results under nonlinear load and fault conditions demonstrate that the proposed BG-PSO-PI controller achieves a minimum source current Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of 3.51%, outperforming ANN-PI (3.57%), Fuzzy-SMC (3.72%), and conventional PI (7.03%) controllers. Furthermore, the BG-PSO-PI controller maintains DC-link voltage deviations within ±2%, compared to ±5% in traditional schemes, and achieves fault recovery in less than 0.05 s during grid disturbances. These results confirm that the proposed control architecture significantly improves PQ indices, enhances voltage stability, and ensures rapid dynamic response, making it suitable for modern grid-integrated renewable energy systems.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":100030,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Control for Applications","volume":"7 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/adc2.70035","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145572160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the aim of resolving this matter, the research proposes an optimization method for spatial motion control of robotic arms based on modeling analysis and the fast extended random tree algorithm. The study first models and analyzes the spatial motion of the robotic arm, and combines the Monte Carlo method for random sampling to create a significant amount of feasible paths. The difference between the feasible path and the planned path is that the feasible path is optimized through multiple iterations, gradually approaching the optimal solution, while the planned path is a predetermined fixed path. Afterwards, the improved fast expansion random tree algorithm is used to optimize the path and achieve efficient planning of the robotic arm path. Finally, the proportional integral derivative control method and the recursive least squares method are employed to flexibly control the spatial motion end of the robotic arm, improving the motion accuracy and stability of the robotic arm. The experimental outcomes reveal that the node utilization rate and planned path length of the proposed control method in simulation analysis are 20.71% and 111.61 cm, respectively, and the fitting degree between its control trajectory and the ideal trajectory exceeds 0.98. In practical applications, the average time required for the robotic arm using the proposed method is only 12.5 s, and the quality pass rate remains above 98%. In addition, the completion rate of its winding task is 99.5%.

The main drawbacks of PWA approximation, i.e., discontinuity in control signal and chattering between different regions, are addressed by the PWA-Fuzzy model. In this paper, with the aim of stabilizing the system in the open-loop unstable equilibrium point, a patched-fuzzy state feedback (PFSF) controller is designed as an improved form of the conventional state feedback controller for the PWA-Fuzzy model of an inverted pendulum on a cart. Because of the intention to implement the mentioned controller for a real plant, the identification of PWA-Fuzzy model parameters by the linear least squares method based on the numerical method is presented.

If left unaddressed, such oscillations can propagate throughout the plant, causing variability in downstream processes and negatively impacting throughput and product quality. Accurate detection and classification of oscillations, along with identification of their root causes, are therefore critical for enabling timely corrective actions that enhance control performance and overall process efficiency. Common causes of oscillations in process control include control valve stiction, suboptimal PID tuning, measurement noise, and external disturbances, each imparting distinct dynamic patterns on the process variable (PV) and controller output (OP). Manual detection and classification of these oscillations through visual analysis is time-consuming and impractical due to the large number of control loops in modern plants. In this paper, we present an automated deep learning framework for the detection and classification of oscillations in process control loops. The proposed method employs a one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) to analyze time-series data from PV and OP signals, enabling the model to learn and distinguish between different oscillation patterns associated with various root causes. The framework is trained and validated using both simulated datasets and real industrial plant data, ensuring robustness across a wide range of oscillation scenarios. Case studies are provided to illustrate the practical application of the method, and results demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves high accuracy in both detecting the presence of oscillations and correctly identifying their underlying causes.

Despite its advantages, SRM remained out of date until advancements in power electronic devices made it possible to implement SRM drives. The efficiency of SRMs is limited by issues such as high torque ripple, low power factor (PF), and control complexity. Developments in power electronics have stimulated concepts for further enhancing the performance of SRMs, making them even better candidates for modern applications. Hence, issues related to acoustic noise and nonlinear characteristics remain. Addressing these constraints ensures reliable operation and greater efficiency. In this paper, an enhanced Z-Source converter-based controller is developed for voltage management and PF correction of SRMs, an innovative front-end converter that simultaneously performs voltage regulation and PF correction, tailored for SRM performance enhancement. The proposed converter, acting as a front-end device, performs power-factor correction and voltage regulation by adjusting the magnetization voltage according to the operating mode and drive structure requirements. To achieve these objectives, a central control technique (CCT) is developed that reduces the third-harmonic distortion (THD) and improves the PF. Moreover, angle control is employed to reduce torque ripple and maintain voltage regulation in the front-end converter. It uses a fractional order integral derivative (FOPID) system that is optimized using the modified coronavirus mask protection algorithm (MCMPA). This optimization was improved by MCMPA, which is an addition of the coronavirus mask protection algorithm (CMPA) combined with Levy flight distribution (LFD). Efficient operation of the converter ensures improved voltage management and PF correction. To validate the performance of the proposed controller, the SRM motor was tested under electric vehicle (EV) load conditions. To validate the proposed methodology, it was designed in MATLAB; the performance was evaluated using different measures such as SRM motor current, voltage, speed, and torque.
