<div>In this thesis work, a novel approach for the design of a fractional order proportional integral</div><div>derivative (FOPID) controller is proposed. This design introduces a new time-varying FOPID controller</div><div>to mitigate a voltage spike at the controller output whenever a sudden change to the setpoint occurs. The</div><div>voltage spike exists at the output of the proportional integral derivative (PID) and FOPID controllers when a</div><div>derivative control element is involved. Such a voltage spike may cause a serious damage to the plant if it is</div><div>left uncontrolled. The proposed new FOPID controller applies a time function to force the derivative gain to</div><div>take effect gradually, leading to a time-varying derivative FOPID (TVD-FOPID) controller, which maintains</div><div>a fast system response and signi?cantly reduces the voltage spike at the controller output. The time-varying</div><div>FOPID controller is optimally designed using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) or genetic algorithm</div><div>(GA) to ?nd the optimum constants and time-varying parameters. The improved control performance is</div><div>validated through controlling the closed-loop DC motor speed via comparisons between the TVD-FOPID</div><div>controller, traditional FOPID controller, and time-varying FOPID (TV-FOPID) controller which is created</div><div>for comparison with all three PID gain constants replaced by the optimized time functions. The simulation</div><div>results demonstrate that the proposed TVD-FOPID controller not only can achieve 80% reduction of voltage</div><div>spike at the controller output but also is also able to keep approximately the same characteristics of the system</div><div>response in comparison with the regular FOPID controller. The TVD-FOPID controller using a saturation</div><div>block between the controller output and the plant still performs best according to system overshoot, rise time,</div><div>and settling time.</div>

Pour la résolution de problèmes d’ordonnancement d’ateliers de type flow-shop en industries pharmaceutiques et d’ateliers de type job-shop flexible, deux méthodes d’optimisation ont été développées : une méthode utilisant les algorithmes génétiques dotés d’un nouveau codage proposé et une méthode d’optimisation par essaim particulaire modifiée pour être exploitée dans le cas discret. Les critères retenus dans le cas de lignes de conditionnement considérées sont la minimisation des coûts de production ainsi que des coûts de non utilisation des machines pour les problèmes multi-objectifs relatifs aux industries pharmaceutiques et la minimisation du Makespan pour les problèmes mono-objectif des ateliers job-shop flexibles.Ces méthodes ont été appliquées à divers exemples d’ateliers de complexités distinctes pour illustrer leur mise en œuvre. L’étude comparative des résultats ainsi obtenus a montré que la méthode basée sur l’optimisation par essaim particulaire est plus efficace que celle des algorithmes génétiques, en termes de rapidité de la convergence et de l’approche de la solution optimale / For flexible job-shop and pharmaceutical flow-shop scheduling problems resolution, two optimization methods are considered: a genetic algorithm one using a new proposed coding and a particle swarm optimization one modified in order to be used in discrete cases.The criteria retained for the considered packaging lines in pharmaceutical industries multi-objective problems are production cost minimization and total stopping cost minimization. For the flexible job-shop scheduling problems treated, the criterion taken into account is Makespan minimization.These two methods have been applied to various work-shops with distinct complexities to show their efficiency.After comparison of these methods, the obtained results allowed us to notice the efficiency of the based particle swarm optimization method in terms of convergence and reaching optimal solution
