Corroborating evidence is presented that the sawtooth period can follow the modulation frequency of an externally applied high power electron cyclotron wave source. Precise, fast and robust open loop control of the sawtooth period with a continuously chang ...
We consider an electricity consumer equipped with a perfect battery, who needs to satisfy a non-elastic load, subject to external control signals. The control imposes a time-varying upper-bound on the instantaneous energy consumption (this is called ``Dema ...
Recent analysis of empirical data from cities showed that a macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) of urban traffic provides for different network regions a unimodal, low-scatter relationship between network vehicle density and network space-mean flow. In t ...
In this paper we consider a linear system structured into physically coupled subsystems and propose an innovative distributed control scheme capable to guarantee asymptotic stability and satisfaction of constraints on system inputs and states. Our method h ...
This paper considers linear discrete-time systems with additive bounded disturbances subject to hard control input bounds and constraints on the expected number of state-constraint violations averaged over time, or, equivalently, constraints on the probabi ...

This paper is devoted to the design of a predictive controller for constrained linear systems to track periodic references. The only assumption on the dynamics of the reference is that it is periodic and its period is known. It is also assumed that the ref ...
This paper presents an investigation of how ModelPredictiveControl (MPC) and weatherpredictions can increase the energy efficiency in Integrated Room Automation (IRA) while respecting occupant comfort. IRA deals with the simultaneous control of heating, ve ...
This study presents a new approach to the control problem of single-phase switch-mode rectifiers. The proposed approach is based on a particular model predictive control scheme, incorporated with soft constraints for the errors of the key control targets. ...
For economical and ecological reasons aircraft are required to become more efficient by reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. One way to achieve these objectives is to decrease the weight of the aircraft structure. The reduction is, however, limi ...
