Realization of fractional-order controllers: analysis, synthesis and applicatio...
Barbosa, Ramiro S.; Jesus, Isabel S.; Silva, Manuel F.; Machado, J. A. TenreiroThe synthesis and application of fractional-order controllers is now an active research field. This article investigates the use of fractional-order PID controllers in the velocity control of an experimental modular servo system. The systern consists of a digital servomechanism and open-architecture software environment for real-time control experiments using MATLAB/Simulink. Different tuning methods will be em...
Fractional control of dynamic systems
Barbosa, Ramiro S.; Machado, J. A. TenreiroThe concepts involved with fractional calculus (FC) theory are applied in almost all areas of science and engineering. Its ability to yield superior modeling and control in many dynamical systems is well recognized. In this article, we will introduce the fundamental aspects associated with the application of FC to the control of dynamic systems.
Application of fractional calculus in engineering
Machado, J. A. Tenreiro; Jesus, Isabel S.; Barbosa, Ramiro S.; Silva, Manuel F.; Reis, CecíliaFractional Calculus (FC) goes back to the beginning of the theory of differential calculus. Nevertheless, the application of FC just emerged in the last two decades. It has been recognized the advantageous use of this mathematical tool in the modelling and control of many dynamical systems. Having these ideas in mind, this paper discusses a FC perspective in the study of the dynamics and control of several syst...
Application of genetic algorithms in the design of an electrical potential of f...
Jesus, Isabel S.; Machado, J. A. Tenreiro; Barbosa, Ramiro S.Fractional calculus (FC) is currently being applied in many areas of science and technology. In fact, this mathematical concept helps the researches to have a deeper insight about several phenomena that integer order models overlook. Genetic algorithms (GA) are an important tool to solve optimization problems that occur in engineering. This methodology applies the concepts that describe biological evolution to ...
Patients- and physicians- priorities for improvement: The case of rheumatic dis...
Pereira da Silva, JA; Ramiro, S; Pedro, S; Rodrigues, A; Vasconcelos, JC; Benito-Garcia, EOBJECTIVES: To compare the health priorities elected by patients with rheumatic diseases and by their attending rheumatologists. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We undertook a cross-sectional study among patients and rheumatologists in Portuguese rheumatology outpatient clinics. 75% of all Portuguese Rheumatology Departments agreed to participate. Rheumatologists from non-participating hospital departments were asked to...
Applying science in practice: the optimization of biological therapy in rheumat...
Ramiro, S; Machado, P; Singh, JA; Landewé, RB; Pereira da Silva, JAMost authorities recommend starting biological agents upon failure of at least one disease-modifying agent in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. However, owing to the absence of head-to-head studies, there is little guidance about which biological to select. Still, the practicing clinician has to decide. This review explores the application of published evidence to practice, discussing the goals of treatment, ...
Effect of fractional orders in the velocity control of a servo system
Barbosa, Ramiro S.; Machado, J. A. Tenreiro; Jesus, Isabel S.The application of fractional-order PID controllers is now an active field of research. This article investigates the effect of fractional (derivative and integral) orders upon system's performance in the velocity control of a servo system. The servo system consists of a digital servomechanism and an open-architecture software environment for real-time control experiments using MATLAB/Simulink tools. Experiment...
Some applications of fractional calculus in engineering
Machado, J. A. Tenreiro; Silva, Manuel F.; Barbosa, Ramiro S.; Jesus, Isabel S.; Reis, Cecília; Marcos, Maria da Graça; Galhano, AlexandraFractional Calculus FC goes back to the beginning of the theory of differential calculus. Nevertheless, the application of FC just emerged in the last two decades, due to the progress in the area of chaos that revealed subtle relationships with the FC concepts. In the field of dynamical systems theory some work has been carried out but the proposed models and algorithms are still in a preliminary stage of est...
Control and dynamics of fractional order systems
Machado, J. A. Tenreiro; Jesus, Isabel S.; Barbosa, Ramiro S.; Silva, Manuel F.Fractional Calculus (FC) goes back to the beginning of the theory of differential calculus. Nevertheless, the application of FC just emerged in the last two decades due to the progress in the area of nonlinear dynamics. This article discusses several applications of fractional calculus in science and engineering, namely: the control of heat systems, the tuning of PID controllers based on fractional calculus con...
On the fractional order control of heat systems
Jesus, Isabel S.; Machado, J. A. Tenreiro; Barbosa, Ramiro S.The differentiation of non-integer order has its origin in the seventeenth century, but only in the last two decades appeared the first applications in the area of control theory. In this paper we consider the study of a heat diffusion system based on the application of the fractional calculus concepts. In this perspective, several control methodologies are investigated namely the fractional PID and the Smith p...
