Application of harmony search algorithm and particle swarm optimization for tuning proportional differential fuzzy controller for position control in pneumatic actuator

Pneumatic actuator system is highly nonlinear and time varying due to many factors such as friction, load variations, air compressibility, dead-time and leakage. Therefore handling and controlling the pneumatic actuator required a specific knowledge and suitable control strategy. In this project, th...
