This paper investigates the application of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to eliminate the misplacement problems in the supply chain, which consists of a risk-neutral manufacturer and a risk-averse retailer. By considering both fixed cost and tag cost of RFID implementation, we study the agents' incentives to adopt RFID in both uncoordinated and coordinated cases. We focus on analyzing the impact of risk attitudes on the agents’ incentives and on the supply chain coordination. The central semi-deviation is adopted to measure the retailer's risk attitude. In the uncoordinated case, we find that, in order to induce the retailer to adopt RFID, the manufacturer must assume more fixed cost if the retailer is more risk-averse. In the coordinated case, we first show that the standard revenue sharing contract does not always coordinate the channel. If the channel is coordinated, we observe that the agents’ incentives will be perfectly aligned and independent of the risk attitudes, if the revenue sharing ratio equals the fixed cost sharing ratio. Then we propose a risk-sharing contract that offers the risk protection to the retailer, to achieve the channel coordination. An interesting finding is that the manufacturer's incentive will not decrease with the tag cost, if she takes much risk from the retailer. The corresponding impacts of RFID adoption on the two contracts are also analyzed in this paper. Finally, a case study in a tobacco industry is presented to show the real RFID cost in practice.

A biomimetic controller with online adaptation of impedance and force is applied to a full kinematic and dynamic model of the Baxter bimanual robot. A set of fuzzy logic engines are proposed to infer the values of tuning gains which affect the control performance and control effort of the controller, which would conventionally be set to a static value based on expert knowledge of the controller; the aim of this being to avoid the use of arbitary values to set these values. A simulated experiment is carried out, where the Baxter robot is required to move an object through a trajectory while subjected to two different disturbance forces in four phases. The controller with fuzzy inferred control gains is compared against the same controller with fixed gains to gauge the effectiveness of the new method. Results show that fuzzy inference of control gains impart an improvement in both tracking error and control effort.

This paper presents a new method based on the polytopic linear differential inclusion and the robust mixed H2/∞ filtering for the design of the nonlinear filter with non-Gaussian noises. The main goal is to solve the problems of the complexity and large calculation number in the general nonlinear filter and the filtering design problem for systems with the non-Gaussian noises. The noises considered in the paper involve two different kinds of noises: white noises and energy bounded noises. Differing from the linearization in most nonlinear filters, the estimation error system for the nonlinear system is represented by an uncertain polytopic linear model, based on which, the rectification equations for the predicted errors are designed following the robust mixed H2/∞ filtering. The state estimates for the nonlinear system are given through updating the predictions by the rectified quantities, where, the state predicted quantities of the nonlinear system are gained by the prediction equation of the EKF. The evident advantage of the new filter is the filter coefficients of the rectification equation are constant, without the need to evaluate the Jacobian matrixes. As a result, the calculation number for the new filter is decreased much and the real-time performance of the new filter is much better than the EKF, though the accuracy is a little decline. Its effectiveness is demonstrated by using an example and the statistics result of the calculation number for the filters in the example.

This paper presents a novel maximum power point (MPP) tracking (MPPT) method to increase photovoltaic (PV) system performance during partially shaded conditions (PSCs). The method is based on voltage scanning method. Voltage band method and restricted voltage scanning method is used to increase the scanning speed. A method is proposed to determine whether partial shading occurs. The main advantage of the proposed method is the ability to search the global peak fast. Simulation results shows the good performance of proposed method.

Autonomous vehicles have attracted considerable attention in the research community and industry due to their potential benefits to unmanned driving and assisted driving. This paper addresses the problem of designing lateral control law and the strategy of determining the giving speed for autonomous vehicles. An improved method of calculating lateral offset and angle error based on multiple look-ahead distances is proposed to reduce the impact of noise in reference path data on the lateral control system. Multiple fuzzy inference engines are used to design the steering controller and determine the given driving speed including forward and backward to deal with both simple and complex reference paths. Satisfactory simulation and experimental results have been obtained for different reference paths including a path with U-turn task in which backward driving is needed.

An optimal time-varying sliding mode controller based on SDRE approach is proposed in this paper for re-entry vehicle attitude control in the presence of parametric uncertainties and external disturbances. Firstly, an optimal time-varying sliding surface is obtained through the minimization of a given performance index function and the philosophy of time-varying sliding mode control. Subsequently, a discontinuous control law is designed for guaranteeing the existence of the sliding mode throughout the entire response of the system. Therefore, the global robustness can be ensured. Simulation example is finally given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

A chaotic particle swarm optimization (CPSO) algorithm is proposed by introducing chaos state into the original Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) which aims to solving the flaws of easy plunging into local optimum and losing search ability in the last period for the fast particle velocity decrease. CPSO algorithm takes advantage of the ergodicity, randomicity, and regularity of chaos to make chaotic searching for the global extremun at the same time with the particle swarm optimization. This algorithm synthesizes the high efficiency of global optimization of PSO algorithm and the ergodicity and randomicity of local search of chaotic algorithm. This paper utilizes aforementioned algorithm to identify the Bouc-Wen hysteresis model for piezoelectric ceramic actuators (PCA). The experimental results show that the model identified by CPSO algorithm has better performance than that by PSO algorithm.

This paper presents observer-based fuzzy control for nonlinear fractional-order systems with the fractional order α satisfying 1 < α < 2 via fuzzy T-S models. Using the properties of the Kronecker product and LMI approach, the feedback and observer gain matrices are designed. By this method, the state of nonlinear system described as the fuzzy T-S model is convergent to the equilibrium and the observer error is convergent to zero. Finally, the simulation result of a numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of this method.
