This paper presents a method to verify closed-loop properties of optimization-based controllers for deterministic and stochastic constrained polynomial discrete-time dynamical systems. The closed-loop properties amenable to the proposed technique include g ...
External control of gene regulatory networks (GRNs) has received much attention in recent years. The aim is to find a series of actions to apply to a gene regulation system making it avoid its diseased states. In this work, we propose a novel method for co ...
Model Predictive Control is becoming more and more present in robotic applications. It has been successfully used in control of humanoid robots to adjust positions of the footsteps in order to satisfy stability constraints. In this paper we show how to ada ...
A probabilistic interpretation of model predictive control is presented, enabling extensions to multiple coordinate systems. The resulting controller follows a minimal intervention principle, by learning and retrieving movements through the coordination of ...
This paper is framed within the context of intra-day optimal control of polygeneration systems and storage connected to microgrids. In particular, the paper proposes an optimal control strategy that accounts for both electrical and thermal processes taking ...
This paper demonstrates that an array of cantilever sensors can be operated simultaneously at resonance using a single actuator and a single photodetector. Self-sustained oscillations (SSOs) of cantilevers can be achieved in a feed-back loop using gain sat ...
Programming by Demonstration (PbD) offers a user-friendly way of skill transfer from human to robot. Typically, demonstration data do not contain the control inputs required to reproduce the demonstrated skill. These control commands can be obtained from a ...
We consider the problem of dispatching wind farm (WF) power demand to individual wind turbines (WTs) with the goal of minimizing mechanical stresses. We assume that wind is strong enough to let each WTs produce the required power and propose different clos ...
Increasing electricity and thermal demand in all sectors, an increasing focus on the reduction in carbon emissions and use of nuclear power, advent of distributed generation and greater use of renewable technologies on an aging electrical and thermal grid ...
In this paper, we address the problem of synthesizing decentralized current controllers for grid-feeding converters of current-controlled distributed generation units (CDGUs) in dc microgrids (MGs). Notably, a plug-and-play (PnP) design procedure is propos ...
