Professor Zhang has conducted a series of research and exploration in the fields of fuzzy control and intelligent control, and has continuously achieved new results. He has won the third prize of the Guangdong Provincial Science and Technology Award. He has published more than 30 academic papers in first-level journals such as "Control Theory and Applications" and "Computer Application Research", many of which have been included in EI and ISTP. Among them, "Fuzzy Control Digital Simulation System Software Design" won the "First Prize for Outstanding Papers" issued by the Chinese Society of Automation in 1996; "Application of Two-Dimensional-Three-Dimensional Composite Fuzzy Controllers in AC Speed ??Control Systems" won the Maoming City Science and Technology Award in 2001. The "First Prize for Maoming Natural Science Outstanding Papers" issued by the Association for Science and Technology, and the 2002 Guangdong Province Third Prize for Excellent Natural Science Papers. He has presided over 1 Guangdong Provincial Natural Science Foundation project, 1 Guangdong Provincial Science and Technology Research Project, 1 Guangdong Provincial Department of Education natural science research project, 1 Education Department-funded project, and 4 Maoming City "Three Science and Technology Funding" projects. , Maoming Petrochemical Company and other 5 horizontal topics, with a total scientific research funding of nearly 1 million yuan. Among them, in September 2002, the "Electric Drive Intelligent Control Simulation System" passed the achievement appraisal organized by the Provincial Department of Science and Technology, obtained the intellectual property authorization certificate from the State Intellectual Property Office, and won the second prize of the Maoming Science and Technology Progress Award in 2002 and the 2005 Maoming Science and Technology Progress Award. The third prize of the Guangdong Provincial Science and Technology Award; the utility model patent "Intelligent Control Device for Sprinkler Irrigation and Drip Irrigation" was officially authorized by the State Intellectual Property Office in May 2003; in December 2001, he presided over the completion of the "Ten-Year Plan for the Development of Electronic Information Industry in Maoming City" 》The project has passed the expert review organized by Maoming Science and Technology Bureau.
In scientific research, he focuses on innovation and solving practical problems in production. In view of the current situation of weak general software for industrial control in my country, he invested nearly ten years in the design of the "Electric Drive Intelligent Control Simulation System" project. Over the past year, the results have been well received in applications in some universities and enterprises. In view of the fact that there is almost no application of intelligent control theory in agricultural water-saving irrigation at home and abroad, we took the lead in carrying out application research in this area, and received support from the Guangdong Provincial Department of Education, Maoming Municipal Agriculture Bureau, Maoming Municipal Science and Technology Bureau and many experts With the support of scholars, it has obtained a national patent. He has worked on a number of technical research projects at Maoming Petrochemical Company, such as "K201 unit intelligent fault diagnosis system", "grease automatic weighing system", "wax block weight self-correction system", etc., which have greatly improved product production efficiency and reduced It has achieved good social benefits and significant economic benefits in terms of reducing labor intensity of workers and reducing production costs.
As the leader in charge of scientific research, Professor Zhang has put in a lot of hard work for the scientific research work of the School of Computer and Electronic Information, worked hard to form a scientific research team, actively developed scientific research topics for the province, city and Maoming Petrochemical Company, and tried every means Carrying out academic exchange activities has made gratifying progress in the scientific research work of the School of Computer and Electronic Information, which originally had a weak scientific research foundation and a relatively weak atmosphere. In 2003, the school won the honorary title of "Advanced Scientific Research Unit" of the school.
