An Adaptive Neurofuzzy Inference System for the Assessment of Change Order Management Performance in Construction
( American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) , 2021 , Article)Change order management is a major challenge in the construction business due to the associated disputes, claims, productivity losses, delays, and cost implications. As a result, effective change order management (COM) is ... -
Adaptive Optics Compensation for Orbital Angular Momentum Optical Wireless Communications
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2022 , Article)Adaptive optics (AO) can efficiently compensate for turbulence-induced distortion in orbital angular momentum (OAM)-based optical wireless communication (OWC) systems. In this paper, we design a modified phase diversity ... -
Adaptive optimized DTC-SVM using metaheuristic Bat algorithm for DSIM fed by IMC based on robust synergetic speed controller
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2021 , Article)Direct torque control (DTC) suffers from the large ripples of the torque and flux, which leads to deteriorating the system performances. Replacing the conventional back-to-back converter with an indirect matrix converter ... -
Adaptive Prediction Models for Data Center Resources Utilization Estimation
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2019 , Article)Accurate estimation of data center resource utilization is a challenging task due to multi-tenant co-hosted applications having dynamic and time-varying workloads. Accurate estimation of future resources utilization helps ... -
Adaptive Sampling
( John Wiley & Sons, Ltd , 2015 , Book chapter)Animal populations are often highly grouped. For example, fish can form large, widely scattered schools with few fish in between. Even rare species of animals may form small groups that are hard to find. Applying standard ... -
Adaptive Single-Phase Auto-Reclosing Approach for Shunt Compensated Transmission Lines
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2021 , Article)Single-phase auto-reclosing (AR) scheme is widely employed in extra high voltage (EHV) transmission networks to quench transient faults without completely removing the faulted transmission line (TL). Long EHV TLs are ... -
Adaptive sliding mode control for a general nonlinear multicompartment lung model with input pressure and rate saturation constraints
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2016 , Article)Summary In this article, we develop an output feedback adaptive sliding mode controller for a general multicompartment lung mechanics model with nonlinear resistance and compliance respiratory parameters. Specifically, for ... -
Adaptive Sliding Mode Fault Diagnosis for LPV Systems with Uncertain Scheduling Variables
( IEEE Computer Society , 2018 , Conference Paper)This paper presents an adaptive sliding mode observer for actuator fault diagnosis of linear parameter-varying (LPV) systems with imperfectly measured scheduling variables due to noisy or faulty measurements. The developed ... -
Adaptive sliding mode observer for sensor fault diagnosis of an industrial gas turbine
( Elsevier Ltd , 2015 , Article)Sensors are one of the crucial components in gas turbines and the failure in sensor measurements can lead to serious problems in maintaining their safety and performance requirements. Our aim in this paper is to develop ... -
Adaptive sliding mode-based diagnosis of actuator faults for LPV systems
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2017 , Article)In this paper, an adaptive sliding mode observer is developed for actuator fault diagnosis of linear parameter-varying systems. The main advantage of the proposed approach is its ability to cope with time-varying distribution ... -
An adaptive step-down procedure for fault variable identification
( Taylor & Francis , 2015 , Article)In a process with a large number of process variables (high-dimensional process), identifying which variables cause an out-of-control signal is a challenging issue for quality engineers. In this paper, we propose an adaptive ... -
