Advanced Control Systems Design
Advanced Control Systems Design is a research topic within Control and Systems Engineering. Science Explorer counts 17k research works in it since 1953. 17.9% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.
This cluster of papers focuses on the analysis, design, and application of fractional order control systems, particularly emphasizing PID controller tuning, model reduction, stability analysis using Lyapunov functions, and robust stability for industrial automation. It also explores the use of particle swarm optimization in optimizing PID controllers and the application of fractional order control in discrete-time systems.
