CHAPTER I 1. Fuzzy control Fuzzy control is a practical alternative for a variety of challenging control applicationssince it provides a convenient method for constructing nonlinear controllersvia the use of heuristic information. In a sense fuzzy systems can be “trained” and can “learn” how to perform throughout a control task and are considered as intelligent control system. Fuzzy control system design is based on empirical methods‚ basically a methodical approach to trail-and-error. The
