Design of fuzzy systems for modelling of explosive cutting process of plates using singular value decomposition

Abstract

Fuzzy systems are used for modelling of explosive cutting process of plates by shaped charges. The aim of such modelling is to show how the depth of penetration varies with the variation of important parameters. It is also demonstrated that singular value decomposition (SVD) can be effectively used to fine tuning of such fuzzy models in a noniterative process. Such application of SVD will highly improve the performance of fuzzy systems to model the very complex process of explosive cutting of plates by shaped charges.
