    Abstract: The four tank system is a widely used mechatronic laboratory system in control theory. This work is aimed to choose the best controller for the four tank system (4TS) with two input force. The optimal control is one of the best techniques in a sense of performance, and is demonstrated for the level control of 4TS. There are several controller syste... Show More

    Abstract: In this article, we considered the fuzzy hyperbolic differential inclusions (fuzzy Darboux problem), introduced the concept of R-solution and proved the existence of such a solution. Also the substantiation of a possibility of application of partial averaging method for hyperbolic differential inclusions with the fuzzy right-hand side with the smal... Show More

    Abstract: In engineering and science, linear systems of algebraic equations occur often as exact or approximate formulations of various problems. These types of equations are well represented in matrix form. A major challenge for researchers is the choice of algorithm to use for an appropriate solution. In this study, we choose to experiment with three algor... Show More

    Abstract: The fuzzy transportation problem in which available commodity frequently moves from one source to another source or destination before reaching its actual destination is called a fuzzy transshipment problem. In this paper, a new method is proposed to find the fuzzy optimal solution of fuzzy transportation problems with the following transshipment: ... Show More

    Abstract: In this paper, we present the solution of nonlinear fractional Heat - Like equations by using Aboodh transform homotopy perturbation method (ATHPM). The proposed method was derived by combining Aboodh transform and homotopy perturbation method. This method is seen as a better alternative method to some existing techniques for such realistic problem... Show More

    Abstract: In this paper, comparative analyses of three NOCT-based cell temperature models are presented. The models are the HOMER (Hybrid Optimization of Multiple Energy Resources) software cell temperature, Ross cell temperature model and Davis and Rauschenbach cell temperature model. Noticeably, unlike PVSysts software, the three models do not include the ... Show More

    Abstract: When computing rain attenuation with the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) model the rain rate is normally needed. However, only limited rain rate data are published by ITU for the various regions all over the globe. In order to obtain the missing rain rate data for ITU rain attenuation model, two empirical models used to generate the rai... Show More
