Development of free-boundary equilibrium and transport solvers for simulation and real-time interpretation of tokamak experiments

To exploit fusion as a source of energy, a hot and dense confined plasma is needed. This is achieved in tokamaks by actively controlling the plasma state meaning shape, position and internal kinetic profiles. This thesis addresses two topics: the developme ...

A Note on BIBO Stability

Michaël Unser

The statements on the BIBO stability of continuoustime convolution systems found in engineering textbooks are often either too vague (because of lack of hypotheses) or mathematically incorrect. What is more troubling is that they usually exclude the identi ...

Multi-Variable High-Frequency Input-Admittance of Grid-Connected Converters: Modeling, Validation and Implications on Stability

Drazen Dujic, Francisco Daniel Freijedo Fernández, Marc Ferrer Duran

Modern grids are facing a massive integration of power electronics devices, usually associated to instability issues. In order to assess the likelihood and severity of harmonic instability in the high frequency region, this work develops a multi-variable i ...

Full Discrete Modeling, Controller Design, and Sensitivity Analysis for High-Performance Grid-Forming Converters in Islanded Microgrids

Francisco Daniel Freijedo Fernández, Federico De Bosio

Recent works have shown that the state-feedback decoupling of capacitor voltage allows for drastic bandwidth enlarging of current controllers for grid-forming converters in islanded microgrids. Furthermore, Smith predictor and lead compensation have been a ...

A Robust Capacitive Digital Read-Out Circuit for a Scalable Tactile Skin

Sandro Carrara, Danilo Demarchi

This paper presents a robust, capacitive digital read-out circuit (ROC) for sensitive skin applications in humanoid robots. The ROC can be calibrated to null the parasitic effects of transducer variation due to physical assembly. A prototype is fabricated ...

Moment-sum-of-squares hierarchies for set approximation and optimal control

Milan Korda

This thesis uses the idea of lifting (or embedding) a nonlinear controlled dynamical system into an infinite-dimensional space of measures where this system is equivalently described by a linear equation. This equation and problems involving it are subsequ ...

Controller design and value function approximation for nonlinear dynamical systems

Colin Neil Jones, Milan Korda

This work considers the infinite-time discounted optimal control problem for continuous time input-affine polynomial dynamical systems subject to polynomial state and box input constraints. We propose a sequence of sum-of-squares (SOS) approximations of th ...

Controller design and region of attraction estimation for nonlinear dynamical systems

Colin Neil Jones, Milan Korda

This work presents a method to obtain inner and outer approximations of the region of attraction of a given target set as well as an admissible controller generating the inner approximation. The method is applicable to constrained polynomial dynamical syst ...

Robust H-infinity Controller Design Using Frequency-Domain Data

Alireza Karimi, Yuanming Zhu

A new robust controller design method is developed for linear time-invariant single-input single-output systems presented by their frequency response data. The performance specifications are in terms of the upper bounds on the infinity norm of weighted clo ...
