This paper describes interactive applications used to illustrate an advanced course on multivariable control. The direct manipulation of features in graphics, such as eigenvectors in the phase plane or observer eigenvalues in the complex plane, gives the s ...
Robust state-feedback model predictive control (MPC) of discrete-time periodic affine systems is considered. States and inputs are subject to periodically time-dependent, hard, convex, polyhedral constraints. Disturbances are additive, bounded and subject ...
A model predictive control law is given by the solution to a parametric optimization problem that can be pre- computed offline and provides an explicit map from state to control input. In this paper, an algorithm is introduced based on wavelet multiresolut ...

In this paper an algorithm for nonlinear explicit model predictive control is introduced based on multiresolution function approximation that returns a low complexity approximate receding horizon control law built on a hierarchy of second order interpolets ...
Recent results have suggested that online Model Predictive Control (MPC) can be computed quickly enough to control fast sampled systems. High-speed applications impose a hard real-time constraint on the solution of the MPC problem, which generally prevents ...
A model predictive control law (MPC) is given by the solution to a parametric optimization problem that can be pre-computed offline, which provides an explicit map from state to input that can be rapidly evaluated online. However, the primary limitations o ...
Meeting the temperature constraints and reducing the hot-spots are critical for achieving reliable and efficient operation of complex multi-core systems. The goal of thermal management is to meet maximum operating temperature constraints, while tracking ti ...
Limits on the storage space or the computation time restrict the applicability of model predictive controllers (MPC) in many real problems. Currently available methods either compute the optimal controller online or derive an explicit control law. In this ...

Recent research has proposed mainstream traffic flow control (MTFC), enabled via variable speed limits (VSLs), as a novel motorway traffic management tool and has demonstrated its efficiency based on sophisticated optimal control methods that may face diff ...

A stirred-tank reactor was built with the objective of rapid and accurate temperature control in the reaction vessel. A first-principles heat transfer model was developed for the jacketed batch system, with the jacket inlet temperature used to control the ...
