Robust control approach for a diesel engine: AMESim validation

Advanced Modeling Environment for performing Simulations of engineering systems (AMESim) is a multi-domain software that allows interconnection between different type of physical systems. It also allows to reproduce their dynamic behaviors under various scenarios and to analyze their operation. In this paper, AMESim software is introduced in order to validate the developed control laws. In fact, an AFSMC approach is developed for a TDE. Adaptive PD term is integrated to eliminate the chattering phenomenon without deteriorating the tracking performances and fuzzy logic systems are introduced to approximate the unknown functions. Adaptive parameters are obtained basing on Lyapunov stability analysis to guarantee stability of closed loop system. Simulations are presented to illustrate the performance of the developed approach.
