The original TCV control system was designed in the late 1980s to be inherently network based in that all control operations were performed from X-windows terminals and the control computers were networked. Using VMS-VAX technology, the acquisition system ...
The Industrial Electronics Laboratory at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL) in Lausanne has built a prototype of a revolutionary two-wheeled vehicle. Due to its configuration with two coaxial wheels, each of which is coupled to a DC Motor, th ...
The paper describes a predictive and adaptive heating controller, using artificial neural networks to allow the adaptation of the control model to the real conditions (climate, building characteristics, user's behaviour). The controller algorithm has been ...
This work describes the development of a fuzzy logic based control system capable of governing multiple thyristor-controlled series capacitors (TCSCs). The main purpose of the presented coordinated control system is the improvement of active power flow con ...
A low-power transceiver for ISM applications in the 868-MHz band has been integrated in a 0.8-μm BiCMOS technology. The receiver part is based on the super-regenerative principle. The system includes two time-shared control loops, one for the selectivity a ...
When we achiev a good performance of the field-oriented vector control system, it is necessary to detect the speed and flux of the motor. Usually it is hard to implemment these sensors. Then the sensor-less contro-system techniques using the observer inste ...
Despite advances in implementation technologies of distributed systems during the last few years, little progress has been made on specification techniques for describing distributed systems in software development practice. The contribution of this paper ...
We consider one aspect of the general problem of unicast equation based rate control in the Internet, which we formulate as follows. When a so called ``loss-event" occurs, a data source updates its sending rate by setting it to f(pn^), where $\hat{ ...
At the present time, variable-message signs (VMS) and variable speed-limit signs are in frequent use for traffic control, especially along urban motorways. The Lausanne by-pass is partially equipped with these and should be fully equipped in the near futur ...
A review, with 17 refs., on research carried out by the polymer reaction engineering group at EPFL in reaction engineering, including kinetic modeling of polymn. reactions (lab. and pilot scale reactors), free radical, polyepoxydation, polycondensation. De ...
