A tokamak is a machine in which the toroidal and poloidal magnetic fields are produced to confine the plasma. It is designed for achieving the controlled thermonuclear fusion power. In the process of fusion, some layers of heated plasma become cooler than the other layers, which are called "Magnetic Islands." Magnetic Islands are an important limitation in the performance of tokamaks. Localized heating by Electron Cyclotron Heating (ECH) systems is a promising tool to eliminate the Magnetic Islands and control the plasma. In this book a detection algorithm which has been developed by Prof....

In this book, we develop an idea around a type of control system based on fuzzy logic to help a driver maintain the kinetic balance of the vehicle. After a brief discussion on the vehicle dynamics stability theory in the first chapters, we introduce the main idea together with simulation results and hardware implementation. The main idea is to investigate the vehicle dynamics instability based on the fuzzy analysis of the vehicle CG (center of gravity) behavior and to use sensors and actuators in order to coordinate suspension, brakes and steering system in critical situations. An advantage...

In this book, the methods of driver's fatigue detection have been studied. Furthermore, we explain the process of designing an analysis method based on fuzzy logic theory using three types of factors to detect the driver's fatigue: Driver crucial factors, Environmental factors and Conditional factors. In the proposed method using tactile and environmental sensors, the system predicts driver's fatigue before s/he falls asleep and concentrates the driver attention by alarming. This system helps the driver to keep his/her alertness during driving. An advantage of the proposed fatigue detection...
