Adaptive Backstepping Control With Real-Time Fuzzy Logic Parameter Selection Of A Field- Oriented Control-Based Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor Driver, Fati̇h Bayir, Erkan Zergeroğlu

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This study proposes an adaptive backstepping control approach integrated with a real-time fuzzy logic parameter selection algorithm to enhance the robustness and stability of a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) controller under parametric uncertainties and external disturbances. Although backstepping control performs well under varying disturbances, it must be supported by an adaptive control algorithm to effectively handle both variable disturbances and parameter uncertainties. Moreover, because the fixed parameters of the adaptive backstepping controller limit the dynamic performance of the velocity tracking loop, this study incorporates fuzzy logic control—a soft computing algorithm capable of real-time parameter adjustment—to achieve more robust outcomes. …


Excitation Of Synchronous Machine By Contactless Power Transfer - Review From The Perspective Of Electric Vehicles, Erhan Tuncel, Emi̇n Yildiriz Jul 2025

Excitation Of Synchronous Machine By Contactless Power Transfer - Review From The Perspective Of Electric Vehicles, Erhan Tuncel, Emi̇n Yildiriz

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Electrically excited synchronous machines (EESMs) are one of the best choices for propulsion motor appli cation in electric vehicles (EVs) due to their wide torque-speed characteristics. Moreover, the air gap flux density can be easily controlled by varying the excitation current. Despite these advantages, it is difficult to transfer the current required by the rotating excitation winding into the motor under conventional methods, so it is not widely used in EVs. In this study, the emerging literature on contactless power transfer methods is reviewed for applicability to an EESM that can operate as an EV propulsion motor. Design criteria such …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This work describes a microstrip log-periodic dipole array (MLPDA) antenna that uses metamaterials and operates across the whole Ka-band. The suggested MLPDA antenna layout provides a wide bandwidth with fewer dipole elements than traditional MLPDA antennas while maintaining the same resonance frequencies. To reduce size while covering a wide operational spectrum, the antenna design includes bending dipoles as radiating elements, as well as an incomplete ground plane. Furthermore, the proposed MLPDA antenna’s energy loss has been reduced while boosting its signal strength (gain) by inserting a metamaterial-based structure in front of it at a certain distance and on the same …

The growing interest in Conversational AI has led to the development of Conversational OpenQA systems as a crucial step for meeting users' information needs in real world scenarios. Conversational OpenQA systems enhance standard OpenQA performance by leveraging conversation history of the users. However, building effective Conversational OpenQA systems requires large-scale Conversational OpenQA datasets, often limited to the English language, hindering progress in low-resource languages. We present a robust Conversational OpenQA system enhanced by conversational context, designed for languages with limited resources and exemplified in our case study for Turkish. To address data limitations in a cost-effective way, we repurpose existing …

A Case Study Of Gray-Box Fuzzing With Byte- And Tree-Level Mutation Strategies In Xml-Based Applications For Exposing Security Vulnerabilities, Şerafetti̇n Şentürk, Vahi̇d Garousi, Nejat Yumuşak

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Fuzzing is an automated process for detecting crashes and vulnerabilities in software system and it is classified as grammar- or mutation-based in terms of input generation. While the grammar-based fuzzing generates inputs from a specification and takes highly-structured inputs, mutation-based fuzzing generates inputs by modifying input files and abstract syntax trees randomly. There are not many case studies comparing the crash detection capabilities in the scope of mutation-based fuzzing. To add to the body of empirical evidence in this area, this case study compares fuzzing with different mutation strategies to evaluate their effectiveness in three aspects: fault detection effectiveness, fault …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this study, we aim to provide a parameter selection approach for the BFVrns scheme, one of the prominent fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) schemes. Selecting parameters for lattice-based FHE schemes poses a practical challenge for both experts and nonexperts. To solve this problem, we introduce a hybrid approach that combines theoretical approach with experimental analysis. First, we employ regression analysis to examine the impact of parameters on both performance and security. The varying behavior of FHE parameters in terms of performance, security, and ciphertext expansion factor (CEF) makes parameter selection more challenging.

Fuzzy-Virtual Inertia Control To Improve The Frequency Response Of Multi-Area Power Systems, Nourelhouda Djaraf, Yacine Daili, Abderrahim Zemmit, Abdelghani Harrag

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Virtual inertia control (VIC) is essential for power systems dominated by electronic devices to compensate for the lack of inertia and ensure frequency regulation. However, most existing VICs often focus solely on optimizing the virtual inertia parameter to adapt to the high penetration of renewable energy sources (RESs) without considering the damping factor. This oversight can lead to significant fluctuations and power mismatches, especially in interconnected systems where the coordination between MGs is sensitive and essential, and there is a risk of propagation of deviations between MGs, which makes the control more complex. To address these issues, this paper presents …

Balancing Anarchy And Efficiency: Partial Team Formations And Learning In Potential Games, Muhammed Sayin Jan 2025

Balancing Anarchy And Efficiency: Partial Team Formations And Learning In Potential Games, Muhammed Sayin

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Non-cooperative multi-agent learning, focusing on individual rationality (anarchy), often falls short in achieving system-wide efficiency in potential games, a class of games with applications in decentralized control and optimization. On the other hand, cooperative approaches prioritize system efficiency but often via global coordination, which could be impractical, e.g., for large-scale and less controlled environments. To address this dilemma, we propose a novel framework that introduces partial team formations, allowing team members with shared objectives to coordinate their actions while maintaining team-wise rationality for improved system-wide efficiency without the burden of global coordination. We model such interactions as a multi-team game …

An Improved Conditional Integrator Sliding Mode Controller Based On Swarm Intelligence For A Magnetic Levitation System, Abdelkader Kerraci, Mohamed Fayçal Khelfi, Zoubir Ahmed-Foitih

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper proposes an enhanced Conditional Integrator Sliding Mode Controller using Particle Swarm Optimization (CISMCPSO) for a magnetic levitation system (MLS). The main advantage of this controller is its robustness to uncertainties and disturbances, which also avoids chattering and ensures zero static steady-state error. The main idea of CISMCPSO is to activate its integral action only when the sliding surface reaches the boundary layer while it is reduced to zero or close to zero elsewhere, which avoids destroying the transient response caused by the conventional integral sliding-mode controller. A particle swarm optimization algorithm schedules the conditional integral term parameter of …
