Fuzzy neuron model-free control for continuous steel casting processes

Based on a neuron model and a neuron control method, the fuzzy neuron model-free control method for the mold level control of continuous steel casting processes is proposed in this paper. The fuzzy algorithm is used to tune the neuron gain, and the nonlinear transfer is adopted to produce the neuron inputs. The simulation experiments with an example are made. This paper illustrates that this new model-free method has strong robustness, adaptability and satisfied performances.
