We investigate the problem of fuzzy constrained predictive optimal control of high speed train considering the effect of actuator dynamics.The dynamics feature of the high speed train is modeled as a cascade of cars connected by flexible W PULLEY PLATE couplers, and the formulation is mathematically transformed into a Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy mode
