Adaptive neural network control of a helicopter system with optimal observer and actor-critic design

Hager, L. van S.; Uren, K.R.; Van Schoor, G.; Janse van Rensburg, A. (Elsevier, 2018)

This paper proposes a methodology for developing an adaptive neural network controller for a simulated helicopter system. Since an indirect adaptive neural network framework is chosen, the controller comprises three ...
Genetic algorithm based PID tuning for optimal power control of a three-shaft Brayton cycle based power conversion unit

Uren, K.R.; Van Schoor, G. (Elsevier, 2012)

This paper considers the development of a PID control strategy to optimally control the power output of a High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactor (HTGR) power plant. A specific type of HTGR called the Pebble Bed Modular Reactor ...
