The aim of this paper is to create an efficient controller that can precisely track the position of autonomous surface vessels by utilizing the dynamic inversion control technique. One of the key objectives of this controller is to mitigate or eliminate the effects of environmental disturbances like wind, waves, and water flow. On the other hand, intelligent methods are used to remove disturbances and fixing modeling errors. These methods include the use of fuzzy methods to adjust the control parameters in the linear controller used in the dynamic inversion controller and the use of perceptron neural network along with the dynamic inversion controller. The effectiveness of the proposed methods is evaluated not only based on the step response but also on their ability to track a complex path. Finally, the proposed methods have been compared with one of the classic methods, namely the PID control. This evaluation provides insights into how the proposed methods fare in terms of both step response and trajectory tracking when compared to the traditional PID control approach.

Lighting continuity is one of the preferences of citizens. Public lighting management from the viewpoint of city residents improves social welfare. The quality of lamps and duration of lighting defect correction is important in lighting continuity. In this regard, reward and penalty mechanism plays an important role in contract. Selecting labor and lamps has a significant impact on risk reduction during the contract period. This research improves strategies for public lighting asset management. The lifespan of lamp that announced by manufacturers is used to calculate maintenance cost in order to provide a possibility to estimate the actual cost of high-pressure sodium luminaire in public lighting system. Guarantee period of lamps and maximum permissible lighting defect detection and correction time is used for reward and penalty mechanism. The result shows that the natural life guarantee and permissible correction time have a considerable effect in maintenance cost and city resident’s satisfaction.

In this paper fractional order averaged model for DC/DC Buck converter in continues condition mode (CCM) operation is established. DC/DC Buck converter is one of the main components in the wind turbine system which is used in this research. Due to some practical restriction there weren’t exist input voltage and duty cycle of converter therefor whole of the wind system was simulated in Matlab/Simulink and gathered data is used in proposed method based on trial and error in order to find the fractional order of converter. There is an obvious relationship between controller performance and mathematical model. More accurate model leads us to better controller.

State estimation is the foundation of any control and decision making in power networks. The first requirement for a secure network is a precise and safe state estimator in order to make decisions based on accurate knowledge of the network status. This paper introduces a new estimator which is able to detect bad data with few calculations without need for repetitions and estimation residual calculation. The estimator is equipped with a filter formed in different times according to Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of measurement data. In addition, the proposed estimator employs the dynamic relationships of the system and the prediction property of the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) to estimate the states of network fast and precisely. Therefore, it makes real-time monitoring of the power network possible. The proposed dynamic model also enables the estimator to estimate the states of a large scale system online. Results of state estimation of the proposed algorithm for an IEEE 9 bus system shows that even with the presence of bad data, the estimator provides a valid and precise estimation of system states and tracks the network with appropriate speed.
