Supervisory Coordination of Robotic Fiber Positioners in Multi-Object Spectrographs

Denis Gillet, Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Matin Macktoobian

In this paper, we solve the complete coordination problem of robotic fiber positioners using supervisory control theory. In particular, we model positioners and their behavioral specifications as discrete-event systems by the discretization of their motion ...

Analog Control of Retainable Resistance Multistates in HfO2 Resistive-Switching Random Access Memories (ReRAMs)

Elmira Shahrabi, Yusuf Leblebici, Jury Sandrini, Carlo Ricciardi, Cecilia Giovinazzo, Oguz Tolga Celik

Resistive-switching random access memory (ReRAM) technologies are nowadays a good candidate to overcome the bottleneck of Von Neumann architectures, taking advantage of their logic-in-memory capability and the ability to mimic biological synapse behavior. ...

A Numerical Model For The Simulation Of Shallow Laser Surface Melting

Marco Picasso, Alexandre Caboussat, Alexandre Masserey, Julien Hess

We present a multi-physics model for the approximation of the coupled system formed by the temperature-dependent Navier-Stokes equations with free surfaces. The main application is the industrial process of shallow laser surface melting (SLSM), for laser p ...

Single chamber multiple degree-of-freedom soft pneumatic actuator enabled by adjustable stiffness layers

Jamie Paik, Marco Salerno, Junius Santoso

Soft pneumatic actuators promise simple, adaptable, and safe manipulation, but the nature of pneumatic circuits limits the scalability of this approach. This paper introduces a method to augment the degrees-of-freedom of soft pneumatic actuators without in ...

Comparison of MPC Formulations for Building Control under Commercial Time-of-Use Tariffs

Maher Kayal

Most medium and large commercial buildings in the U.S. are subject to complex electricity tariffs that combine both Time-of-Use (TOU) energy and demand charges. This study analyses the performances of different economic Model Predictive Control (MPC) formu ...

Ordering Events Based on Intentionality in Cyber-Physical Systems

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Simon Bliudze, Wajeb Saab

We consider cyber-physical systems (CPSs) comprising a central controller that might be replicated for high-reliability, and one or more process agents. The controller receives measurements from process agents, causing it to compute and issue setpoints tha ...
