The purpose of this invited plenary paper is to present authors' ideas of the actual state of the smart transport and trends of its potential further development, including a brief outline of visions going up to both short-time and long-time horizons. The aim is to create a framework for another wide domain where machine intelligence and informatics (the main topics of the SAMI 2016 conference) could...
Aim of this article is to design and to implement autonomous multi-agent system, which is used for effective mapping of unknown environment. Proposed system is compared with single mapping robot. Robots used only simple systems such as odometry and gyro-odometry for their localization. Obstacles are detected by bumpers and IR sensors. System is controlled by superior server and each agent communicates...
In this work, we compare nine methods of experimental identification (polynomial models, artificial neural networks and deterministic methods). We use measured data from the small turbojet engine iSTC-21v to create experimental models through programming environment MATLAB/Simulink. Comparing the output of these calculated models with the real measured data, we get the amount of the mean absolute...
For a small gas turbine engine test cell newly developed and built at the University of Defence in Brno a system for automated measurement and engine test control was designed. The system is based on National Instruments Compact RIO hardware and LabVIEW software and is implementing supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) architecture. This paper describes the requirements that drove the decision...
This paper presents an event-driven approach for handling variable rate sensor feedback. Such systems are challenging as most discrete-time modeling techniques are based on constant sampling rate. Existing methods include oversampling, which is rather resource-intensive and linearization or linearizing feedback, which requires calculations for each operating point of the system. As an alternative...
This paper describes the design, comparison and evaluation of two software solutions from business intelligence category for the purpose of improving report process in the one of the biggest European steel companies. Industrial companies very often use old information system, which were made many years ago. Management chooses business intelligence solutions and our task was to set up web portals and...
Information Technology is highly dynamic field with new innovations coming all the time. These days we are experiencing another industrial revolution thanks to the exponential growth of devices connected to the Internet. Industry 4.0 is based on cyber-physical systems which are industrial automation systems enabling many innovative functionalities trough their networking and access to the cyber world...
Gas turbines are widely spread in the aviation industry to propel both commercial and military aircraft. The stable and efficient operation of these units is an essential question of flight safety; therefore the high level control system is inevitable. Nowadays all newly designed aircraft engines incorporate Full Authority Digital Electronic Control (FADEC) for the fault tolerant behavior to reduce...
The main goal of this work is to introduce sensor technologies that have an impact on modern world. There are many technologies and many different views on them. Current trends lead the entire world to work on various combinations of several technologies. This allows us to look at the world through a camera in a wide spectrum at the same time. Using IR sensor, depth camera is eligible to scan one's...
The H∞ norm approach to virtual actuators design, intended to Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy continuous-time systems, is presented in the paper. Using the second Ljapunov method, the design conditions are formulated in terms of linear matrix inequalities in bounded real lemma structures. Related to the static output controller, and for systems under influence of single actuator faults, the design steps are revealed...
Theoretical, methodological and systemic resources were developed on the way towards product system model centered and intellectual property driven engineering during the past decade. These developments enhanced communications between humans as well as between humans and physical objects. Leading industries utilized new generation of product lifecycle management (PLM) systems in connection with smart...
Emerging concept of the so-called intelligent space (IS) offers means for use of mobile autonomous devices like vehicles or robots in a very broad area without necessity for these devices to own all necessary sensors. From this reason also new navigation methods are developing, which utilize IS means, with the aim to offer maybe not so accurate but first of all cheep and reliable solutions for a wide...
From a control point of view, the biomass combustion is extremely complex process with significant dynamic couplings among variables and a number of measurable and non-measurable disturbances. The relationships among these variables are usually highly non-linear with long time-delays. Therefore, it is often necessary to use computational intelligence methods in modeling and control of biomass combustion...
