Optimization arises naturally when process performance needs improvement. This is often the case in industry because of competition – the product has to be proposed at the lowest possible cost. From the point of view of control, optimization consists in de ...
Due to the limited pumping capacity in lowland water systems, reduction of system failure requires anticipation of extreme precipitation events. This can be done by Model Predictive Control that optimizes an objective function over a certain time horizon, ...
We propose a novel optic-flow-based flight control strategy, inspired by recent observations and hypothesis by Baird (unpublished), to regulate independently forward speed and altitude. Unlike previous approaches where longitudinal ventral optic flow was u ...
This paper presents the design and preliminary control of an indoor coaxial helicopter �CoaX� based on a concept of hybrid active and passive control. The robot is capable of passive roll and pitch stabilization against small disturbances while a ...
In this paper the short term scheduling optimization of a combined cycle power plant is accomplished by exploiting hybrid systems, i.e. systems evolving according to continuous dynamics, discrete dynamics, and logic rules. Discrete features of a power plan ...
The main problem with Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) is the management of batteries. We suggest to replace the batteries by an energy storage ystem made of supercapacitors on a series HEV with two traction drive. A maximum Control Structure (MCS) of such a ...
In many control problems the measurement instances might not be available in a periodically-equally-distributed way and/or the same might occur to the control signals. Moreover, due to the sensor evaluation time, calibration of actuators and sensors, or re ...
The lactose regulation system of Escherichia coli is known to exhibit a bistable behavior. The stable states correspond to the phenotypical states of the system, induced and uninduced. Stochastic modeling of the system enables us to reproduce an experiment ...
In this paper, the hybrid production planning & control method Double Speed Single Production Line (DSSPL) is presented, modelled and its performances evaluated and compared to classical Production Planning and Control methods (PPC). DSSPL combines JIT/kan ...
Hybrid dynamical systems are those with interaction between continuous and discrete dynamics. For the analysis and control of such systems concepts and theories from either the continuous or the discrete domain are typically readapted. In this thesis the i ...
