Integration of passenger satisfaction in railway timetable rescheduling for major disruptions

Stefan Yves Gabriel Binder

Unexpected disruptions occur for many reasons in railway networks and cause delays, cancellations, and, eventually, passenger inconvenience. This thesis focuses on the railway timetable rescheduling problem from a macroscopic point of view in case of lar ...

Technical Report: Control of Nonlinear Systems with Explicit-MPC-like Controllers

Colin Neil Jones, Milan Korda, Ivan Pejcic

This paper describes synthesis of controllers involving Quadratic Programming (QP) optimization problems for control of nonlinear systems. The QP structure allows an implementation of the controller as a piecewise affine function, pre-computed offline, whi ...

Distributed Modifier-Adaptation Schemes for the Real-Time Optimization of Interconnected Systems in the Presence of Structural Plant-Model Mismatch

Dominique Bonvin, René Uwe Schneider, Predrag Milosavljevic

The desire to operate chemical processes in a safe and economically optimal way has motivated the development of so-called real-time optimization (RTO) methods [1]. For continuous processes, these methods aim to compute safe and optimal steady-state set ...

Design Optimization of Round Strands Made by Twisted Stacks of HTS Tapes

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Davide Uglietti, Rainer Wesche

Atwisted stack of high-temperature superconducting (HTS) tapes soldered into copper profiles was used as a strand in the fabrication of the 60-kA/ 12-T HTS cable prototype at the Center for Research in Plasma Physics (CRPP). Considering the strand in gener ...

MATHICSE Technical Report : A model order reduction framework for parametrized nonlinear PDE constrained optimization

Federico Negri

In this paper, we propose a model order reduction framework for parametrized quadratic optimization problems constrained by nonlinear stationary PDEs. Once the solutions of the optimization problem are characterized as the solutions of the corresponding op ...
